The leap : the psychology of spiritual awakening / by Taylor, Steve,1967-;
Includes bibliographical references and index.What does it mean to be enlightened or spiritually awakened? In The Leap, Steve Taylor shows that this state is much more common than is generally believed. He shows that ordinary people ? from all walks of life ? can and do regularly "wake up" to a more intense reality, even if they know nothing about spiritual practices and paths. Wakefulness is a more expansive and harmonious state of being that can be cultivated or that can arise accidentally. It may also be a process we are undergoing collectively. Drawing on his years of research as a psychologist and on his own experiences, Taylor provides what is perhaps the clearest psychological study of the state of wakefulness ever published. Above all, he reminds us that it is our most natural state ? accessible to us all, anytime, anyplace.LSC

Rule your day : 6 keys to maximizing your success and accelerating your dreams / by Osteen, Joel,author.;
"Some people live in a constant state of worry, upset, and negativity because they let everything in. They listen to the news all day, go to lunch with judgmental people, or get cut off in traffic, leaving the rest of their day pretty sour. They're not ruling their day. No one can keep all bad things from happening, but you can stop them from getting down in your spirit. The less time you spend in bad situations or with small-minded people, the better off you're going to be. Don't sit inactive with people who don't believe in you, people who don't come into agreement with your dreams. You control what you allow into your day, your mind. God has given you the authority to rule over your attitude and your response. Let God control what you can't. If you'll do your part, then He will do His-making things happen that you couldn't even imagine. With Rule the Day, you'll be able to go out each day expecting the best, knowing everything may not be perfect. There may be delays, interruptions, difficult people, but you'll learn to not let these things ruin your day. Know that God is directing your steps and has given you the power to remain calm in times of adversity. Every day can be a good day, if you rule your atmosphere."--Provided by publisher.

The courage to change : saying goodbye to good enough and embracing the promise of what can be / by Meyer, Joyce,1943-author.;
"We've all heard the saying, "The only constant is change." Sometimes the changes we face, both expected and unexpected, can make our lives feel ungrounded and unsteady. And when we react to change with fear, an opportunity for growth can turn into overwhelming anxiety that locks us into situations, relationships, and ways of thinking and being that prevent us from living in the fullness of who we truly are in Christ. Beloved Bible teacher and #1 New York Times bestselling author Joyce Meyer wants us to know that even when we feel like the ground beneath our feet is shifting, we can stand firm on the promise of God's Word that He will see us through. With her signature insight and timeless wisdom, Joyce shows us how to align our emotional reactions to changes with the truth of God's promise that He will work all changes for good in our lives, even the most painful and difficult ones. In The Courage to Change, you will learn how to: -Embrace change as a necessary part of growth -Replace a mindset of fear with a mindset of opportunity -And live fully within the uncertainty of change while maintaining peace. We will all face changes again and again throughout our lifetimes. We don't have to live dreading the challenges that these changes bring. We can equip ourselves to become people of bravery, optimism, and hope in an ever-changing world, because we have God's assurance that His character and His promises will never change. Become a change warrior and embrace the courage to change. The Courage to Change also contains study questions at the end of each chapter for individual or group reflection"--

Healing the wounds of rejection : moving forward with strength, confidence, and the ability to trust again / by Meyer, Joyce,1943-author.; Stache, Ginger,author.;
"In this era of epidemic loneliness, widely beloved Bible teacher Joyce Meyer and her partner in ministry Ginger Stache offer a vulnerable, intimate, and compassionate conversation about the shame and the pain of rejection and the pathway to healing. We live in a time of overwhelming loneliness and disconnection. At least one in four Americans today are living in estrangement from a family member, and over 50% of us experience periods of disconnection from close relatives. No matter who we are, the sting of rejection touches us. As a child, you may have experienced bullying or even a parent or sibling who failed to acknowledge your value and love you as you needed to be loved. As we grow older, the rejections we experience pile upon one another-a boss who offers constant criticism, a spouse who walks away and leaves us devastated, a friend who ditches us when life gets tough. Rejection is a common denominator of the human experience, and many of us develop into people who view the world through the lens of rejection as our pain causes us to burrow further into isolation, disappointment, and sadness. Here, through Joyce's personal story of abuse and abandonment and Ginger's journey of shock and betrayal in marriage, you will find community in the fact that you are not alone, as well as hope for the dawning of new possibilities. In this book, Joyce Meyer and Ginger Stache are determined to banish the stigma of rejection by leading readers to the healing balm of God's unconditional love. Through facing our pain head-on, learning to embrace the truth of our absolute acceptance in Christ, and understanding how others may react to us and to the world out of their own lens of rejection, we can grow in confidence, develop healthy relationships, and find lasting acceptance"-- Provided by publisher.

In Peaceful on Purpose, you will discover that you weren't designed to carry the heavy load yourself: step back to let God step in.
