Resting in His Redemption: The Basis of Prayer and the Christian Life
by James GillsThe Scriptures teach clearly that God desires to live in intimate fellowship and communion with mankind. He wants us to enjoy His love, peace, joy, and companionship and to rest in His redemption, experiencing the perfect harmony and contentment and fulfillment of purpose for which He created us. God’s original purpose for creating mankind was simply for us to enjoy relationship with Him, the kind of fellowship that the first couple, Adam and Eve, enjoyed in the Garden of Eden, when God walked with them in the cool of the evening (Gen. 3:8). Then, sin entered the human experience and separated all mankind from that divine fellowship. But when we place our faith in Christ’s sacrifice for our sin, we are redeemed by the blood of Christ and justified in the sight of God. But that is not the end of the matter; it is only the beginning. God’s intention is that we be completely restored--spirit, soul, and body--to the divine rest found in His redemption, He wants us to experience that mystery of intimate communion with our Creator/Redeemer. In this book we will discuss four important aspects of fulfilling the deepest desire of the human heart--to know God personally and intimately in the way God’s great, loving heart intended. To know the love of God that brings true heart contentment, we need to walk in the understanding of these divine principles: The biblical basis for all prayer is resting in His redemption. The biblical basis for all Christian living is resting in His redemption. The biblical basis for total forgiveness is resting in His redemption. The biblical basis for divine contentment is resting in His redemption. Your life can be transformed when you allow Him to make them a reality to your heart. The love of God can fill your heart and make you a victorious lover of the Christ. You will be ruined for any lesser, temporal pleasure or love once you taste more deeply the wonders of resting in His redemption.

Master Your Mind and Energy to Heal Your Body: You Can Be Your Own Cure
by Brandy GillmoreAMAZON #1 BESTSELLERA captivating must-read, this book unveils the astounding hidden potential of the human mind. If you are interested in alternative healing, or if you have been struggling for years with your own recovery, then you will not want to miss this book.Brandy Gillmore reveals the groundbreaking research that enabled her to heal herself from a debilitating condition deemed incurable. Since then, Brandy has been able to show others how to heal themselves from a wide range of pain and illnesses and has also demonstrated mind-body healing using medical equipment. Due to unprecedented results, Brandy's work has been featured in several documentaries and docuseries. Now, for the first time, Brandy shares her research through this remarkable book so that you too can unlock the boundless potential of your own mind.In Part One, this book takes you on an extraordinary journey of discovery. Starting Brandy's accident and the disheartening news from her doctors that there was nothing anyone could do for her, it moves onto Brandy's desperate quest to find a cure, and all evidence continued to point to the mind as holding the ability to activate the body's innate self-healing mechanism. However, despite the evidence, Brandy was still skeptical. She had already tried practices like "mind over matter" meditation, and the power of belief, but none of them worked to heal her body. Furthermore, given the severity of Brandy's condition, it seemed impossible to her that her mind could heal her physical body.As Brandy delved further into medical research, she was astonished by her findings. Not only did she uncover concealed studies that vividly illustrated the mind's potential to impact on our physical body, but she also discovered scientifically documented information about the body's energy that challenged her preconceived notions about health.For example: - Did you know that people with multiple personalities can experience different illnesses in different personalities? For example, one personality may have back pain, while another may have asthma. Medical research has even documented a case of a woman who was blind in certain personalities but had normal vision in others.- Did you know that "energy" in the body is not a spiritual concept but has actually been medically documented? In fact, the medical scientist who first documented energy in the body (biophotons) in the 1920s was nominated for a Nobel Prize eleven times!As Brandy continued to explore each medical anomaly, from the placebo effect to spontaneous remission and everything in between, she was able to uncover even more obscure research and gain clarity as to what she needed to do to activate her body's self-healing mechanisms. That's when she began creating a step-by-step process. Over the years, this process has further evolved. Brandy now calls it the "GIFT method" because, as the name suggests, when we connect with our own innate ability to heal ourselves, it truly becomes a life-changing gift.In Part Two, Brandy shares this incredible step-by-step method, along with inspiring stories of individuals who have used this process of mind-body-energy healing to transform their lives and achieve self-healing. It is truly incredible what we are all capable of.

To the River: Losing My Brother
by Don GillmorAn eloquent and haunting exploration of suicide in which one of Canada's most gifted writers attempts to understand why his brother took his own life. Which leads him to another powerful question: Why are boomers killing themselves at a far greater rate than the Silent Generation before them or the generations that have followed?In the spring of 2006, Don Gillmor travelled to Whitehorse to reconstruct the last days of his brother, David, whose truck and cowboy hat were found at the edge of the Yukon River just outside of town the previous December. David's family, his second wife, and his friends had different theories about his disappearance. Some thought David had run away; some thought he'd met with foul play; but most believed that David, a talented musician who at the age of 48 was about to give up the night life for a day job, had intentionally walked into the water. Just as Don was about to paddle the river looking for traces, David's body was found, six months after he'd gone into the river. And Don's canoe trip turned into an act of remembrance and mourning. At least David could now be laid to rest. But there was no rest for his survivors. As his brother writes, "When people die of suicide, one of the things they leave behind is suicide itself. It becomes a country. At first I was a visitor, but eventually I became a citizen." In this tender, probing, surprising work, Don Gillmor brings back news from that country for all of us who wonder why people kill themselves. And why, for the first time, it's not the teenaged or the elderly who have the highest suicide rate, but the middle aged. Especially men.

Learning to Love the Spaces in Between: Discover the Power of Liminal Spaces
by Claire GillmanThe word liminal comes from the Latin word 'limen', meaning threshold. In its literal sense, a threshold is a doorway. 'Liminal' is often used to describe the gateway between two stages.A liminal space can be a metaphysical state – the place between sleep and wakefulness, between life and death where consciousness is altered, the transition period between one life event and the next; or it can be a physical space – the coastline between sea and shore, an empty art gallery, or the moment just before it rains.In an age where so much importance is placed on facts and explanations, the feelings we derive from liminal 'unknown' spaces can disrupt our equilibrium. Yet these 'spaces in between' are often where insight, creativity and inspiration are found.Here, life-long liminal explorer and journalist Claire Gillman helps us learn and grow through our experiences of liminality. Featuring contributions from leading luminaries including Bruce Parry, Caroline Myss, Dr Eben Alexander, Neale Donald Walsch, Phyllis Curott, Yasmin Boland, Dr Robert Holden, Satish Kumar, Dr Mike Dow and Felicity Warner, Claire shows us how we can navigate and embrace liminal experiences to enhance our wellbeing and understanding of the world.

Cozy: The Art of Arranging Yourself in the World
by Isabel GilliesThe New York Times bestselling author of Happens Every Day, Isabel Gillies, presents a fresh and inspiring look at the subtle art of cozy—part manifesto, part lifestyle guide, part memoir—that shows fans of The Little Book of Hygge that true comfort comes from within.When we talk about being cozy, most of us think of a favorite sweater or a steaming cup of tea on a rainy day. But to Isabel Gillies, coziness goes beyond mere objects. To be truly cozy, she argues, means learning to identify the innermost truth of yourself and carrying it into the world, no matter your environment. Starting when she was young, Gillies has gradually learned the art and subtle beauty of creating a life where you feel safe, steadied, and at home in the world. From old family recipes and subway rides to jury duty and hospital stays, in Cozy Gillies shows readers that true ease stems not with throw pillows and a candle, but from opportunities to feel that we are part of something bigger than ourselves, and learn to make ourselves at home no matter where we are.Simple choices can make a hectic life or an uncomfortable situation just a little more comfortable—you just have to know what to do. Just as Marie Kondo offered a philosophy for how to tidy, Gillies offers a new way of occupying the spaces we live in. Starting with yourself, then broadening to your home, your community, and the world at large, Cozy will show you how to bring the truth of who you are into any situation, easy or challenging. As Gillies says, “Cozy isn’t something that just exists. You have to make cozy happen.”Written with profound warmth and featuring hand-drawn illustrations, this wise, necessary book is call to action for each of us to seek out those often-missed opportunities to care for ourselves, and to begin living a more intimate and authentic life.

Subversive Witness: Scripture's Call to Leverage Privilege
by Dominique DuBois GilliardLearn to leverage privilege.Privilege is a social consequence of our unwillingness to reckon with and turn from sin. But properly stewarded, it can help us see and participate in God's inbreaking kingdom. Scripture repeatedly affirms that privilege is real and declares that, rather than exploiting it for selfish gain or feeling immobilized by it, Christians have a responsibility to leverage it.Subversive Witness asks us to grapple with privilege, indifference, and systemic sin in new ways by using biblical examples to reveal the complex nature of privilege and Christians' responsibility in stewarding it well.Dominique DuBois Gilliard highlights several people in the Bible who understood this kingdom call. Through their stories, you will discover how to leverage privilege to:Resist SinStand in Solidarity with the OppressedBirth LiberationCreate Systemic ChangeProclaim the Good NewsGenerate Social TransformationBy embodying Scripture's subversive call to leverage--and at times forsake--privilege, readers will learn to love their neighbors sacrificially, enact systemic change, and grow more Christlike as citizens of God's kingdom.
