{"product_id":"manifesting-your-true-self-kenneth-j-martinelli-9781645593911","title":"Manifesting Your True Self: How Contemplative Christian Practices Can Transform Individuals and Their World","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis book is a synthesis of the current thinking on contemplation and spirituality and is not meant to be a \"how to\" guide on practices such as meditation. Rather, the author addresses the question \"Why would a Christian who regularly attends church, or those currently not practicing their faith, integrate contemplative practices into their daily lives?\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe term religion essentially means \"realignment,\" but what should be realigned in order to bring a new perspective into our lives? Does organized religion help to transform and thus realign parishioners into the people God wants them to be?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe author suggests that churches today need to do more to bring about this transformation, and attempts to develop a logical argument for progressing beyond the religious experiences most of us grew up with. This progression should result in a more complete understanding of the Gospel message and illustrate how this message might apply in today's ever-changing world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kenneth J.
