Christian Meditation: Practice and Teachings for Entering the Mind of Christ $60.48 In 1967, Thomas Merton traveled to Thailand, seeking to further the Buddhist-Christian dialogue that was his passion. It was to be his last journey. This beloved Trappist monk and explorer of the inner life died unexpectedly that trip, but not before writing a final letter to his brothers at the Abbey of Gethsemani in Kentucky. In it Merton wrote that he now realized that everything he had been searching for could be found at his own hermitage, within the Christian tradition. It is in this spirit, with respect for all faiths, that James Finley offers Christian Meditation, an audio retreat about the fundamental practices at the heart of Christianity’s own unique meditation tradition |

Meditation, Confession and Healing in Writing Testimonies $14.99 “MEDITATION, CONFESSION AND HEALING IN WRITING TESTIMONIES This book is about the role of Bible meditation, confession and resolution through writing testimonies, which is a personal reflection on the word of God. This is a vital part of spiritual discipline that can lead to spiritual formation and development and yield great benefits in a Christian’s spiritual growth including the healing of the whole person. “Dr. Samuel D. Lee’s insightful book explains the inductive method of Bible study and the importance of meditation and confession. He explains very well the value of testimony writing. Meditation is prayerfully thinking about (and sometimes writing about) the contents of the Bible passage. Confession is not only confession of sin; it is also confession of faith and confession of praise and thanksgiving to God. He emphasizes the importance of writing and sharing in building up one’s own faith and the faith of others. I believe that this book can be very helpful to the person who seeks to make his personal Bible study more meaningful.” – Sarah Barry, Co-founder of University Bible Fellowship “I believe that Dr. Samuel D. Lee has without doubt written in lucid style the essentials of Christian disciplines of meditation in writing. This book is a must for all who desire to grow in their spiritual development in personal meditation.” – Dr. David P. Lavigne, General Superintendent, The Evangelical Christian Church in Canada “Unquestionably this book is a significant contribution to the Christian church in postmodern time presenting an effective and persuasive way of spiritual formation and influential discipleship, shown in the case illustration of the practice.” – Augustine Suh, Ph.D., Professor in Systematic Theology, Midwest University Samuel D. Lee, Ph.D., Bethany Divinity College & Seminary, is a missionary, Bible teacher and Biblical counsellor in Canada and an ordained pastor.” |

The Art of Divine Meditation $8.25 “I suppose that it is profitable, rather than bold, for me to endeavor to teach the art of meditation. It is as heavenly a business as any that belongs to either men or Christians. And it is such a heavenly business as does unspeakably benefit the soul. For it is by meditation that we ransack our deep and false hearts, find out our secret enemies, come to grips with them, expel them, and arm ourselves against their re-entrance. By meditation we make use of all good means, fit ourselves for all good duties. By meditation we see our weaknesses, obtain redress, prevent temptations, cheer up our loneliness, temper our occasions of delight, get more light unto our knowledge, add more heat to our affections, put more life into our devotions. It is only by meditation that we are able to be strangers upon the earth (as we are commanded to be), and by this we are brought to a right estimation of all earthly things, finally into a sweet enjoyment of invisible comforts. It is by meditation that we see our Saviour, as Stephen did; we talk with God, as Moses did; we are ravished into Paradise, with blessed Paul, seeing that Heaven that we shall be so loath to leave, which things we cannot utter. Meditation alone is the remedy for security and worldliness. It is the pastime of saints, the ladder to Heaven; in short, it is the best way to improve Christianity. Learn it, if you can. Neglect it if you so desire, but he who does so shall never find joy neither in God, nor in himself. And though some of old have appropriated this duty to themselves (confining it within their cells, professing nothing but contemplation), claiming their immunity from those cares which accompany an active life, might have thebest leisure for meditation, yet I deem it an envious wrong to conceal meditation from many, for its benefit may be universal. There is no man who is so taken up with action that he does not at some time have a free mind. And no reasonable mind is so simple as not to be able to better itself by secret thoughts. Those who have but little stock need best to know the rules of thrift. Surely divine meditation is nothing else but a bending of the mind upon some spiritual object, through different forms of discourse, until our thoughts come to an issue. And this must either be unpremeditated, occasioned by outward occurrences offered to the mind; or else it must be deliberate, wrought out of our own heart. And if it is deliberate, then it is either in matter of knowledge (for finding out some hidden truth, or overcoming some heresy by profound traversing of reason); or it is in matter of affection. Joseph Hall (July 1, 1574 – September 8, 1656), English bishop and satirist, was born at Bristow park, near Ashby-de-la-Zouch, Leicestershire, on the 1st of July 1574. Joseph Hall received his early education at the local school, and was sent (1589) to Emmanuel College, Cambridge. Hall was chosen for two years in succession to read the public lecture on rhetoric in the school |

Christian Meditation Inspired by Yoga and "A Course in Miracles" $23.48 Christian Meditation is a sacred activity nourishing your faith that "the Kingdom of God is within you." This comprehensive instruction manual presents unique meditation techniques inspired by yoga that include coordinating the breathing and focusing on different parts of the body. These meditation methods are integrated into an entirely Christian context in which the number one priority is reliance on the action and grace of the Holy Spirit. This book is divided into four parts: Part one describes clear and structured practices of Christian meditation, including the option of a 28-day meditation schedule for beginners to make a specific commitment to their inner spiritual growth. Part two provides guidelines for how intermediate meditators can deepen their meditation experience. Part three focuses on meditation related to overall spiritual growth. Part four shows how to practice meditation as a way of inwardly forgiving yourself as it is described in the philosophy of "A Course in Miracles."Although the word "yoga" is usually translated as "union," it can also be interpreted as "integration." The overall effect of combining traditional Christian attunement methods and nontraditional meditation techniques inspired by yoga is to bring about an integration and unification of the various levels of your being and to deepen your meditation experience. However, these methods are only the beginning of this integration and unification process. The purpose of these meditation techniques is to prepare you for entering wordless contemplation, which is an experience of resting in the embrace of divine love. During contemplation there is an overshadowing of the Holy Spirit in which the mind becomes still without needing a specific focusing object. Through contemplation the Holy Spirit can lead you to a greater degree of integration and unification that will transform you and lead toward your ultimate destiny of awakening to divine union with God. |
