In Cosmic Consciousness, R. M. Bucke identifies three forms of consciousness: * Simple consciousness, possessed by both animals and mankind. * Self-consciousness, possessed by humankind, encompassing thought, reason, and imagination. * Cosmic consciousness, which is "a higher form of consciousness than that possessed by the ordinary man."

Let Justice Roll On Like a River is the first booklet in a series of C4L "activist handbooks".It catalogues many Justice issues that churches have engaged in and fought for over the centuries. It says very little about each particular issue, rather serving as an overview of how and where the church has spoken truth to power.Written in South Africa, the book moves from this historical survey to recent decades in "The Struggle". It explores the contribution that church leaders and followers made - as change agents. It makes mention of some gaps as well, where the church did not rise to the challenge, to its detriment.The book ends with a final chapter that lists various practical ways that Christians can arise to continue in this "prophetic" tradition. For prophecy is not just about forecasting the future. Prophecy also interprets the present with relevant insights, to mobilize citizen participation in change and improvement.It is a pity that after centuries of evolving constitutional democracy, and decades of establishing this model of governance in South Africa, there seems to be an alienation of youth in the 21st century. The so-called "Born Frees" have dis-engaged from elections. (Although they remain very engaged in service delivery protests.) More citizens in the Electorate don't vote than the number who go out and vote.The booklet tries to ignite interest to make youth more aware of the importance of Civic and Justice issues. Not just about Democracy and elections, but about social and economic injustices as well. It starts from biblical and theological roots, and moves through a scan of history quickly, into the period of living memory. Then it scopes what Christian citizens can do in terms of Activism.Albert Einstein once said: "The world will not be destroyed by those who do evil, but by those who watch them without doing anything."

So many times, we feel like we've heard it all before; we've got it all together; we know what we're doing; we're equipped and ready; or like everybody is wrong, except us. We have even experienced times when we didn't want to hear another teaching, another preaching, another prophesy, or another video. We didn't want to read another book, another article, or another story. And we surely didn't want to talk about it anymore! I want to encourage you to give it another try! Gather the women in your life, and let's embark on a continuous journey together to develop the Ladies First approach to life. This book is a compilation of life experiences, scriptural truths, and authentic thoughts on matters of the heart.

An allegorical journey in which a traveler sets out on an expedition to discover life's greatest secret.

New guidebook is an invitation into a journey to elevate one's spiritual soulRuss Simmons' 'There Is No Universe' aims to promote higher level of spiritual development among readers"There Is No Universe" in essence, is an invitation into a journey to elevate one's spiritual soul. In here, Simmons encourages readers to develop a thought process where they seek the truth - and think - beyond what is taught and said to them. He hopes for people to take the personal responsibility for their development to a higher level of God's being by asking what the meaning behind the Scripture is.An excerpt from the book reads:This book is not written to change your mind on any beliefs or religion. It's one and only purpose is to make you THINK and question. Think about anything that anyone, and I mean anyone, tells you about how you should believe on any subject. Thinking is most important for your religious beliefs and your eternal soul. Think about and consider the words and ideas in this book."Now is the time. In my opinion, our society has developed beyond the elementary level of Christ teachings. Christ words were written to a world of early man. His deeper meanings are all there in the Word. We are now ready to find the understandings Christ wanted for a more developed man," Simmons concludes."There Is No Universe"By Russ Simmons
