Overview

This book is an ongoing psychosynthesis of my inner conflict. It is initiated and occasionally guided by a holistic guidance that gradually differentiates itself and reveals itself as different levels and types of holistic guidance. It synthesizes several perceptions of Christianity with a few present-day spiritual trainings and teachings, including the teachings of Jesus and Watchman Nee--a profound seer of divine revelation. It invites us to see what has gone wrong in society since we abandoned the female-centred Celtic Christianity, for a distorted male-dominated Christianity, instead of finding the synthesis of both.

What does it mean to be disconnected from your own life? Grant's debut book attempts to illustrate how his own spiritual journey can help people better understand their feelings, apply new interpretations of Christianity, and manifest Heart Intelligence in their lives. For the past 12 years, his quest has taken him everywhere from Quaker meetings to reiki classes to a nine-day esoteric retreat. But it isn't until he finds the teachings of Watchman Nee, a Christian seer, that his ideas of Jesus and contemporary Christianity radically change. The tree of knowledge and the tree of life are referred to throughout the volume as Grant explains his discovery of Celtic Christianity (different from Roman Christianity), his work as a psycho-spiritual life coach, and the intimate process of crafting this book. This well-informed book displays Grant's wide knowledge of spiritual teachings, and his earnest questioning of the direction of modern Christianity should resonate with restless churchgoers. Spiritual seekers may wish to dip in and out of this packed examination of contemporary Christianity to find guidance. -Kirkus Review Billy Grant, a serial spiritual seeker, dabbled in all major religions and many therapeutic models during a 12-year midlife crisis. At 54, he gave himself 12 weeks to turn his swirling thoughts into a book, hoping the exercise would help him crystallize his beliefs. Readers meet the author as he's trapped in a quagmire of concepts that confuse rather than comfort him. How can he integrate teachings from the Quran, Kabbalah, Geeta, I Ching and different versions of the Bible? Eventually, Grant discovers century-old voices of Celtic Christians and Chinese theologian Watchman Nee, whose ideas blend with Heart Intelligence, a therapeutic model that teaches him to listen more to his heart than his brain. -Blue Ink Review
