Book Description
Steve Wilson was inspired by the Lord to write about the love that God has for every person. A Spiritual Paradise offers testimony that shows the path to God’s love and enables others to see the miracles that God performs through each of us. Wilson believes that to stand firm in hope, faith, and peace with Christ is to proclaim a profession of salvation—to absorb all that is possible from Heaven’s glory. A Spiritual Paradise seeks to remove stumbling blocks, thus clearing the way to truth and life—to escape any sin that may abound. The voice of God directs us to discover ourselves by opening our hearts to a greater love—the love of Jesus Christ. We must build lives that honor God’s love for us, and his son, Jesus Christ, insures that His is our inspiration to achieve all that Christ desires for us—to be like Him and more. The foundation for the churches we build to honor Him must be based true holiness and not only on what the pastor, elders, or others may believe. Each believer must build their own testimony. Many of us are knowledgeable, but everyone needs a guide to direct them to his or her spiritual life.

Book Description
Most people have a skewed vision of what heaven is or what heaven was or will be like. They tend to picture angels floating around, some having harps and some having bows and arrows but none of them actually having a life. To many people, heaven sounds like a boring place and there is little desire to go there although it's much better than...

Book Description
The prophet Brigham Young taught the restored gospel of Jesus Christ in a basic, practical way that gave inspiration and hope to the Saints struggling to build a home in the wilderness. Though more than a century has now passed, his words are still fresh and appropriate for us today as we continue the work of building the kingdom of God. President Young declared that as members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints we possess the “doctrine of life and salvation for all the honest-in-heart” (DBY, 7). He promised that those who receive the gospel in their hearts will have awakened “within them a desire to know and understand the things of God more than they ever did before in their lives” and will begin to “inquire, read and search and when they go to their Father in the name of Jesus he will not leave them without a witness” (DBY, 450). This book reflects the desire of the First Presidency and the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles to deepen the doctrinal understanding of Church members and to awaken within them a greater desire to know the things of God. It will inspire and motivate individuals, priesthood quorums, and Relief Society classes to inquire, read, search, and then go to their Father in Heaven for a witness of the truth of these teachings. Each chapter contains two sections—“Teachings of Brigham Young” and “Suggestions for Study.” The first section consists of extracts from Brigham Young’s sermons to the early Saints. Each statement has been referenced, and the original spelling and punctuation have been preserved; however, the sources cited will not be readily available to most members. These original sources are not necessary to have in order to effectively study or teach from this book. Members need not purchase additional references and commentaries to study or teach these chapters. The text provided in this book, accompanied by the scriptures, is sufficient for instruction. Members should prayerfully read and study President Young’s teachings in order to gain new insights into gospel principles and discover how those principles apply to their everyday lives. By faithfully and prayerfully studying these selections, Latter-day Saints will have a greater understanding of gospel principles and will more fully appreciate the profound and inspired teachings of this great prophet. The second section of each chapter offers a series of questions that will encourage thoughtful contemplation, personal application, and discussion of President Young’s teachings. Members should refer to and carefully reread his words on the principle being discussed. Deep and prayerful study of these teachings will inspire members to greater personal commitment and will help them resolve to follow the teachings of the Savior, Jesus Christ. If individuals and families prayerfully follow the principles in this book, they will be blessed and inspired to greater dedication and spirituality, as were the early Saints who heard these words directly from the lips of the “Lion of the Lord” (HC, 7:434)—the prophet, seer, and revelator, President Brigham Young.

Book Description
In Spiritual Direction from Dante: Yearning for Paradise, the Oratorian Father Paul Pearson provides a detailed but accessible spiritual commentary on the last volume of Dante's masterpiece, Divine Comedy. Fr. Pearson takes readers step-by-step through the text, explaining the spiritual lessons Dante intends his readers to learn. These lessons are particularly important, both in Dante's day and in our own, due to the watered-down image of heavenly bliss the world offers us. Dante's Paradiso corrects this misunderstanding, showing the faithful a paradise that is more real and more fulfilling than anything we have experienced here on earth or even dreamt of. Father Pearson's text is an indispensable companion to the poem for both the scholar and the neophyte. It brings Dante's poem and its lessons into our modern context so that readers will discover: our true individuality is not obliterated in heaven, but is allowed to continue, and is fostered and highlighted. even as we struggle now, we are never alone - everyone in heaven is interested and involved in our salvation. the human unity we strive for here (often unsuccessfully) is a shining fact there, with each person rejoicing in every other person's joys and working together for the salvation of those still striving for heaven. There we are finally understood fully and appreciated. all our human desires are fulfilled in heaven, not abandoned. Fr. Pearson, having already guided readers through the realms of hell and purgatory in this 3-part series, now brings before our eyes the saints and angels, the Virgin Mary, and the Blessed Trinity! But Spiritual Direction from Dante: Yearning for Heaven is more than a guide to the last book of Dante's Divine Comedy. It is an introduction and an invitation to eternal happiness, an invitation that is just as compelling as it was 700 years ago when Dante wrote it.

Book Description
Civilization has now reached a crucial tipping point. Mountains of easy money, leveraged into the stratosphere by unscrupulous dealers in inscrutable financial derivatives, have ensnared entire nations in a web of debt. The nations and financiers are locked in a pushing match. The only unsettled question at this particular juncture is whether the nations will decisively act in the interests of their people and shut down the financial system that is looting the world or whether they will allow the banks to foreclose upon them, thereby effectively ending the era of sovereign nation states and ushering in a banker’s global dictatorship. Bible prophecy supplies the answer. Jehovah Himself Has Become King offers a fresh and unique understanding of prophecy from the standpoint of the vital role that Jehovah’s Witnesses have played upon the world stage in recent times. But contrary to the Watchtower’s prophetic exegesis focused on an invisible parousia for the past nearly 100 years, this work points forward to the visible manifestation of Christ to the chosen ones during the three and one-half year period outlined in the Scriptures as the time of the end.
