Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - 'Me, I'm a gangster. The police know me. Until recently, my job was to rob banks and to rape girls. Now, I realise that my life is more important than that!' This is Kasure talking. He lives in Goroka, Papua New Guinea.What caused this change When Jean-Louis Lamboray and 11 people from all continents launched the Constellation in 2004, they took the prism of our shared humanity to challenge the status quo. They dreamed of a world where communities would take charge of their own lives and connect for sharing and support. They would not teach nor preach but appreciate community strengths. They would not evaluate communities, but communities would assess themselves and learn from their actions.At the outset, Jean-Louis and his friends could only count on their own strengths to inch towards their dream. Now they celebrate a 'positive epidemic' as in more than sixty countries thousands of communities mobilise their own strengths to address their concerns, shape their dream and act to fulfil it. Told with the simplicity of troubadours and of African storytellers this story of stories invites you to reflect and to trust in your own strengths as you join others to address collective challenges. And this is only the beginning of the journey'Jean-Louis Lamboray is one of the world's most impressive public health doctors.

It falls to church leaders, regardless of their decades of experience in ministry and leadership, to approach transformation with an open mind and provide guidance, vision, and restoration to their churches and the souls they serve.…

J.D. Ash has lived more than one lifetime with her, and finally his karma with this woman has been paid in full! I literally couldn't wait to get into the next chapter! This will make a prenominal box office hit THRILLER!' Marty Smith, Ca Commercial Artist Blood Land a Karmic Journey is a fascinating and thrilling metaphysical ride into one of author J.D. Ash's past lives with a woman who chose evil and hatred over love. It is a story involving both the natural and supernatural planes.

The experience adds to his awareness of karma and past life phenomena on the supernatural level. Blood Land a Karmic Journey shows how everyone has his or her own destinya path to follow. The key to life is to discover and understand the quintessence of this destiny. To do so allows an individual to discern the 'whys' for all that occurs to him or her in this life.

Everything has purpose, which all leads everyone to his or her path in life. It was the application of the metaphysics to the daily events which unfolded over two years that prompted the telling of this story.…

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Intertwined with Rosemary McCarthy's personal journey of shifting from an angry, frustrated person blaming others for her unhappiness, to someone who now lives content with herself and in harmony with others, Your Journey to Peace brings the esoteric to the practical and maps out how to become your Best Self and feel empowered in all areas of your life.

Our need to embrace the Indigenous peoples' connection to Gaia. That we chose to be here at this time of the Shift to bring about our personal and Gaia's Ascensions.…
