One’s sets of beliefs have remarkable influence throughout the mind; both in general attitudes and in governing how the mind apprehends and comprehends the outside world. It is important to know these beliefs for what they are in order to assess and, if necessary, counterbalance their pervasive effects. They can both blind and hypersensitize. They are only imperfectly encapsulated. Much of the history of philosophy is a concern with distinguishing beliefs from reality. What can we know and how do we know it?Belief precedes perception and forms a framework for it. Here belief has a meaning beyond religion. We perceive only what we expect to see. We are by no means the objective observers we think we are. We superimpose our preconceptions on the sensory data, in spite of the fact that the sensory data are sometimes at odds with our preconceptions. We surrender only slowly to the sensory input. Such preconceptions are very useful. We see objects more quickly and clearly if we know what we are looking for. The downside of this way of seeing results in the persistence of unnatural beliefs, or the supernatural.I have not seen elsewhere the concept that monotheism is the natural precursor of the idea that the universe is governed by law, which is the necessary philosophical foundation of science. It is intriguing that the chronology and geography of philosophical development suggest an even wider-than-acknowledged Mosaic influence.Prayer is futile insofar as it is a petition. The granting of prayers would be self-contradictory.Seeking a purpose in life is futile. There is compelling logic that none can be found.Drop universalist longings. Open your eyes and your heart to the satisfaction of the incremental.

Truthfulness. Morality. Ethics. Christians face fundamental questions regarding deep issues and everyday problems: Are there situations in life where obedience to God's law is not the most practical solution? Is lying always wrong? Situation ethics attempts to answer questions like these by affirming that doing the loving thing is a higher priority than obedience to God's law. The author endeavors to show how disregard for divine law, though seemingly attractive, reasonable, and practical, is untenable. The book reveals how a situationalist follows a misguided ego rather than an objective standard. Whether we manipulate others to suit our own purposes, lie to avoid embarrassment, or commit a minor indiscretion, it's just a quick fix, something that only lasts for a season. Discover how the eye of faith adheres to God's directives, unblinded by sin's attractive glow; it contemplates a lifetime, it considers eternity.

Looking for hope? A new beginning? An uplifting expression? Or just a plain and simple word from an everyday woman? Well, you are in the right place. There are no coincidences in life. The total inspiration for this book is to let you know to never give up. No matter what obstacles may come your way, don't give up. When life becomes unbearable, don't give up. You have to believe that your life is being orchestrated by the Most High God. If it is written, it will come to pass. Always remember, He will never leave you nor forsake you. You are probably wondering what makes me qualified enough to sit down and write this book. Well, I must let you know that I don't consider myself qualified; I consider myself obedient and that's all it takes. God will handle the rest. I got quiet, heard from God, and wrote. When the words stopped flowing, I stopped writing. If you are reading this, then you are ready for a change. If not, my hope for you is to be inspired by the end of this book.

In Holy Clarity, Sarah Drummond explores the most basic reason leaders of religious organizations conduct evaluations: To find and create God-pleasing clarity regarding the organization's purpose and the impact of its activities. Leadership and evaluation are not separate disciplines, she argues. Effective leaders evaluate because they need to know what is happening in their organizations and how those activities are effecting change. Drummond first describes the way in which our postmodern culture makes clarity difficult to obtain. She then looks at holy clarity from a biblical and theological perspective and make the case that it is a spiritual discipline that can stand on its own theological merits. She presents four approaches to evaluation that can help a leader to guide a community toward greater clarity, both when evaluating or analyzing programs and when planning and starting programs. Finally, she considers the work of clarification as a faith practice, one that can make a pastor or layperson not just a better leader, but a better Christian who is more firmly grounded in God. Each chapter concludes with a fictional case study that provides a jumping-off point for discussion and helps bring her theory to life. Holy Clarity provides an accessible resource as an entry point for those who are eager to learn the best practices of this crucial discipline.
