Unit 2 Looking To God
God wants us to focus on His purposes rather than our own plans, and to see things from His perspective rather than our limited human view. We should wait for God to reveal what He wants to accomplish through us, and then join Him in His work. It's more important to understand what God is doing in our situation than to tell God what we want to do for Him. When God reveals His activity, it is an invitation to partner with Him. God still speaks to His people today through the Bible, prayer, circumstances, and the church to guide us in His will. When God speaks, He intends for us to respond immediately, as His timing is perfect to develop us for His purposes.
Unit 10 – God’S Will And The Church
The document discusses the importance of discerning God's will as a church body rather than as individuals. It emphasizes that the Holy Spirit gifts each member of the church body with different functions, and that the body is not complete without all its members. It stresses maintaining unity as a church and loving one another as God desires for the church.
Unit 4 – Love And God’S Invitation
This document discusses ways to know, worship, love, and join God. It provides guidance on obeying God out of love for Him. God invites people to join in His work by taking initiative and opening their spiritual eyes. The document encourages watching for how God is working and asking probing questions to understand how to connect and make the most of God's revelations and invitations.
Freedom and Knowledge
Jobelle Gonzales reflects on how her understanding of freedom and knowledge has developed through taking a course in fundamental moral theology. She realized that freedom comes with responsibility and choices have consequences in determining one's morality. Prayer and discerning God's will have helped her make choices aligned with her goal of living a God-directed life and strengthening relationships. Knowledge requires using both intellect and heart to think critically about perspectives and take responsibility for one's actions and influences. She finds truth only in seeking and being with God's presence.
7 Realities
God pursues a loving relationship with humanity and invites us to partner with Him in His work, which requires faith and obedience. As we experience God through reading the Bible, prayer, and our circumstances, He speaks to us and leads us to make major adjustments to our lives to join what He is doing in the world.
Unit 5 – God Speaks, Part I
God speaks to people in different ways that are unique to each individual. God reveals himself through the Holy Spirit, his word in the Bible, prayer, and direct revelations to increase people's faith and bring them into a closer relationship with him so they can do his work and accomplish his purposes. When God speaks, the person hears his voice clearly and knows what he is saying, and it is an encounter with God.
Unit 7 – The Crisis Of Belief
When God calls someone to join in his work, it requires a crisis of belief, as their response needs faith that what God has promised will come to pass. Encounters with God demand faith over sight, and what he calls someone to do will be something only he can accomplish. When people see God do something miraculous through an individual, family or church, it draws them closer to knowing God. What someone does ultimately reveals what they believe about God, and taking action is necessary for true faith. Faithful servants will be rewarded for their faithful actions.

Life class week 1
GOD WANTS TO RESTORE US AND GIVE US HIS SALVATION AND THE OPPORTUNITY TO HAVE A MUCH BETTER LIFE DESPITE THE MISTAKES WE HAVE MADE.
Jesus cares
Through the years growing up, the author has discovered that everyone experiences hurt in different ways throughout their lives. Some hurts are minor while others go deeper and leave lasting scars. Many people hide what they've been through so that even those closest to them don't know their pain. These past hurts hold people back emotionally, relationally, and even spiritually. God wants to heal every hurt and restore what has been lost or stolen. Jesus wants to heal people from the inside out, even things they don't want to face or deal with. Getting healed from past wounds is necessary to fulfill one's God-given purpose. God's love is the cure for every wound.
Positivity is prayer
Prayer is meant to be a silent practice of clearing the mind through meditation to open one's heart, rather than demanding things from a deity. True prayer is a practice of surrender, gratitude, and deep love for life's gifts. It is its own reward as it allows one to be receptive to the miracles around them and approach life with wonder, reverence, and positivity. Prayer is a meditation and communion with an open heart that does not require any religious beliefs or affiliation.

Barriers to discovering purpose include lack of commitment, relying on logic, unresolved sin, and busyness. The document provides guidance on crafting a life purpose statement through reflection and receiving revelation from God.

Quiet times 5.14.12
This document provides a weekly schedule of "Quiet Times" from May 14-18, 2012. Each day focuses on a different aspect of finding true happiness through serving God rather than chasing after happiness or relying on people and possessions.

True blessedness and spiritual happiness are defined by Christ's teachings of humility, mercy, and obedience to God.
Be Encouraged

Purpose of the vow
The document discusses the purpose of taking a vow, which is to experience transformation through spiritual disciplines like prayer, focusing on purpose, guarding one's heart, and serving others. This process brings about a community of love where people can experience God's glory and freedom. It notes that ignorance of distinguishing right from wrong has oppressed people and led to negative emotions and sickness. Taking the vow denies one's carnal nature and pursues a new spiritual nature through changing one's inner thoughts by learning God's principles, sharing fellowship with others, engaging in communion, and praying. The goal is to experience God's love and blessings found in community with others.
Step Out Lesson 5
The document discusses a 6-week lesson on responding to God's call based on the story of Jonah. It explores how Jonah initially disobeyed God's call to preach to Nineveh but later obeyed. The goals are to understand obeying God allows one to fulfill their role in His mission and to evaluate ways one says no to God. It includes discussion questions about justifying disobeying God and being obedient as a teenager. It also reviews the key lessons that God's call never cancels, obeying allows participation in His mission, and obeying is always right regardless of feelings. Finally, it previews an activity asking students to consider who their own "Ninevites" are.
I Cannot Do This Alone
The document is a meditation on a prayer by Dietrich Bonhoeffer, in which he acknowledges his own darkness, loneliness, weakness, restlessness, and bitterness, but finds help, light, companionship, strength, peace, patience, guidance, freedom, and purpose through God, who he asks to restore and enable him so that he may live for and praise God each day, no matter what it may bring.

It then discusses how vision flows from purpose, which is the ability to see one's purpose fulfilled through faith. Vision provides direction and motivation. The reader is prompted to write what accomplishing their purpose would look like. Goals are then presented as measurable steps toward fulfilling one's vision.
Pillars to inner healing
This document discusses four pillars of healing from emotional wounds: 1) Position yourself to be healed by having the right relationship with God rather than a religious mindset. 2) Get to the point of knowing God's will that He loves, forgives, and accepts you. 3) Tear down walls that hinder the healing power of Christ by realizing the Holy Spirit wants to heal but won't override free will. 4) Be thankful that Jesus carried our sorrows on the cross and is waiting to heal wounds if we transfer our pain to Him. The overall message is that Christ provides both forgiveness of sins and healing through faith.
It shall be well
God has given us the strength and ability to make things right in our lives. We should not wishfully hope that God will bless us, but instead take action to order our lives and put things in order using the strength that God has provided. With this inner strength, we can make all things go well and say with confidence "It shall be well" even when facing difficulties.

Year-End Sync Newsletter_Dec. 2022.pdf
Most of us have experienced rejection, shame, and blame while growing up. Cory experienced more of these things than anyone I’ve ever known.
Because Cory didn’t grow up with joy being a part of his life, he found that the interactive gratitude exercise from Jim Wilder, Anna Kang, John Loppnow, and Sungshim Loppnow’s book, Joyful Journey, was helpful in processing his internal dialogue of negative thoughts so he could experience joy from God through “Immanuel Journaling.”
Cory noted that his Immanuel Journaling has been enhanced by the “seven soul care principles” from Dr. Rob Reimer’s book, Soul Care: 7 Transformational Principles for a Healthy Soul.
He participates in the weekly soul care men’s group that I co-lead.
We cultivate these seven principles: identity, repentance, overcoming family sin patterns, forgiveness, healing wounds, overcoming fears, and deliverance.
See the profile of Cory, application of the seven soul care principles, and Immanuel Journaling in the attached “Year-End Sync Newsletter.”

A man has to do a personal inventory
This document discusses the importance of men regularly conducting personal inventories or self-evaluations. It recommends that men take time to look back on their lives, identify areas where they have failed or made wrong choices, and confess and repent of their sins. Conducting honest personal inventories through humility and with God's help can lead to deeper fellowship with Christ and spiritual revival. The document provides tips for effective personal inventories, including identifying gains and losses, how to resolve issues, and rejoicing in successes. Regular self-evaluation is important for spiritual growth and improvement.
JOURNALING With Jesus
The document discusses how journaling can help revolutionize one's devotional life by becoming spiritually and emotionally healthier. Journaling allows one to learn more about themselves, improve their prayer life, and record how God is answering prayers. It notes that journaling can improve mental and physical health by decreasing stress and illnesses. The document encourages consistency in meeting with God through journaling and seeing one's journal as a love story and heirloom between oneself and God.
The Daily Examen
The document outlines a 7-step process called the Daily Examen for noticing God's presence in one's life. It involves 1) choosing a lens like gratitude or light, 2) slowing down with deep breathing, 3) recalling the day through the chosen lens, 4) examining the day moment-by-moment for experiences of the lens, 5) optionally examining for the opposite experience, 6) noting moments of consolation and desolation, and 7) reflecting briefly without overanalyzing. The goal is to become more aware of God's presence or absence at different times through the day.

sanskrit yoga mantras chanting for yoga class
Introduction
Mantra Yoga is an exact science. "Mananat trayate iti mantrah- by the Manana (constant thinking or recollection) of which one is protected or is released from the round of births and deaths, is Mantra." That is called Mantra by the meditation (Manana) on which the Jiva or the individual soul attains freedom from sin, enjoyment in heaven and final liberation, and by the aid of which it attains in full the fourfold fruit (Chaturvarga), i.e., Dharma, Artha, Kama and Moksha. A Mantra is so called because it is achieved by the mental process.

Lição 12: João 15 a 17 – O Espírito Santo e a Oração Sacerdotal | 2° Trimestr...
Esta lição é uma oportunidade para discutirmos um assunto multo mal interpretado no contexto cristão, que é o fato de algumas pessoas pensarem que o conhecer Jesus é ter a nossa vida mudada em todas as áreas, como se Deus tivesse o dever de transportar-nos deste mundo para um outro mundo onde muitas coisas maravilhosas que desejamos seriam reais. No entanto, a nossa fé não nos tira do mundo após nos convertermos; ao invés disso, permanecemos vivendo sob as mesmas circunstâncias. O propósito de Deus não é nos tirar do mundo, mas nos livrar das ações do maligno (Jo 17.15), Sendo assim, a vida eterna não significa estar fora da realidade deste mundo, mas conhecer o único Deus verdadeiro (Jo 17.3).
Is Lucid Dreaming Dangerous? Risks and Benefits!
Lucid Dreaming: Understanding the Risks and Benefits
The ability to control one's dreams or for the dreamer to be aware that he or she is dreaming. This process, called lucid dreaming, has some potential risks as well as many fascinating benefits. However, many people are hesitant to try it initially for fear of the potential dangers. This article aims to clarify these concerns by exploring both the risks and benefits of lucid dreaming.
The Benefits of Lucid Dreaming
Lucid dreaming allows a person to take control of their dream world, helping them overcome their fears and eliminate nightmares. This technique is particularly useful for mental health. By taking control of their dreams, individuals can face challenging scenarios in a controlled environment, which can help reduce anxiety and increase self-confidence.
Addressing Common Concerns
Physical Harm in Dreams Lucid dreaming is fundamentally safe. In a lucid dream, everything is a creation of your mind. Therefore, nothing in the dream can physically harm you. Despite the vividness and realness of the dream experience, it remains entirely within your mental landscape, posing no physical danger.
Mental Health Risks Concerns about developing PTSD or other mental illnesses from lucid dreaming are unfounded. As soon as you wake up, it's clear that the events experienced in the dream were not real. On the contrary, lucid dreaming is often seen as a therapeutic tool for conditions like PTSD, as it allows individuals to reframe and manage their thoughts.
Potential Risks of Lucid Dreaming
While generally safe, lucid dreaming does come with a few risks as well:
Mixing Dream Memories with Reality Long-term lucid dreamers might occasionally confuse dream memories with real ones, creating false memories. This issue is rare and preventable by maintaining a dream journal and avoiding lucid dreaming about real-life people or places too frequently.
Escapism Using lucid dreaming to escape reality can be problematic if it interferes with your daily life. While it is sometimes beneficial to escape and relieve the stress of reality, relying on lucid dreaming for happiness can hinder personal growth and productivity.
Feeling Tired After Lucid Dreaming Some people report feeling tired after lucid dreaming. This tiredness is not due to the dreams themselves but often results from not getting enough sleep or using techniques that disrupt sleep patterns. Taking breaks and ensuring adequate sleep can prevent this.
Mental Exhaustion Lucid dreaming can be mentally taxing if practiced excessively without breaks. It’s important to balance lucid dreaming with regular sleep to avoid mental fatigue.
Lucid dreaming is safe and beneficial if done with caution. It has many benefits, such as overcoming fear and improving mental health, and minimal risks. There are many resources and tutorials available for those interested in trying it.
Astronism, Cosmism and Cosmodeism: the space religions espousing the doctrine...
This lecture created by Brandon Taylorian (aka Cometan) specially for the CESNUR Conference held Bordeaux in June 2024 provides a brief introduction to the legacy of religious and philosophical thought that Astronism emerges from, namely the discourse on transcension started assuredly by the Cosmists in Russia in the mid-to-late nineteenth century and then carried on and developed by Mordecai Nessyahu in Cosmodeism in the twentieth century. Cometan also then provides some detail on his story in founding Astronism in the early twenty-first century from 2013 along with details on the central Astronist doctrine of transcension. Finally, the lecture concludes with some contributions made by space religions and space philosophy and their influences on various cultural facets in art, literature and film.

Examen
- 1. Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius of Loyola
- 2. The goal of the spiritual life is to choose what better leads to God’s deepening life in me. We are to choose to freely unite ourselves with God.
- 3. Ignatius spirituality teaches us to discern the footprints of God in our own experience. It shows us how to look back on our lives, to sift through our memories in order to see the way God has been dealing with us over the years. It teaches us how to find God in the present moment. In the relationships, challenges, frustrations, and feelings that we are experiencing today
- 4. Ignatius insisted that they never omit the examen. Twice a day, about midday and again before retiring, Jesuits were to pause for a while and review the events of the day in a spirit of prayerful reflection.
- 5. The examen seems to be a digression from the real business of the retreat, but Ignatius deliberately put the examen at the beginning. The examen is an indispensable tool to realize the purpose of the Spiritual Exercises, which is to detect God’s presence and to discern his will through close attention to the subtle interior movements of God’s spirit. The examen is the cornerstone of Ignatian prayer.
- 6. Ignatius outlined the Spiritual Exercises in five points
- 7. In the next five slides, reflect on the words shown on the screen and how they have been apart of your life today
- 8. 1) be grateful for God’s blessings
- 9. 2) Ask the help of the Spirit
- 10. 3) review the day, looking for times when God has been present and times when you have left him out
- 11. 4) Express sorrow for sin and ask for God’s forgiving love
- 12. 5) Pray for the grace to be more available to God who loves you
