Publisher's Synopsis
Spiritual fear is common place in mainstream religious thought. The fear of sin, hell, or even the Devil himself. But have you ever wondered, questioned, or doubted the very foundations upon which you stand? In this rapidly changing world, people are waking up from their spiritual slumber to find that much more lies beyond the borders of mainstream religious thought. Veiled in the guise of evil sin, and hoarded by the very opponents of darkness, knowledge and spiritual refinement lie just beyond the horizon of perception. As creatures of creation it is our birthright to question, to seek, and to recreate the world around us each day as we slowly remember who we truly are. The endless cycles of sin and forgiveness are holes in the hull of salvation that may sink a floundering ship. For many, as that ship sinks on one side of the fence, a new creature and flaming Phoenix will rise from the ashes on the other; we only need to face our fears of the unknown. Many fear retribution and damnation when seeking truth beyond the confines of mainstream faiths. You may find that by facing these fears of change, an entirely hidden world of knowledge and beauty lies just beyond your perception. Through two failed marriages, poverty, family strife, near death, and thoughts of suicide, this is the author's story of that life changing moment when he questioned everything about himself and the world, leading him away from the cross and fears of doing so. Casting his fears of sinful damnation to the wind and diving into the proverbial "abyss," Brian discovers redemption in the form of a new self-love and identity, a lost soulmate's true love, and that powerful presence that had guided his path to a point of change since childhood. This revelation would change his life once again, and reveal itself as one of the very things his former faith was supposed to have saved him from. This is the story and journey of overcoming those long held fears and world perceptions to arrive in a place of true knowledge, peace, and appreciation.
