The God Trilogy

Book 1 is titled “God Is”; subtitled “And I thought It Was All About Me, The Gospel of Rev. Phil”. “God Is” is my Spiritual Autobiography. Its purpose is to provide you with the basis of believing that there is a Power greater than yourself that is not only watching over you but is willing and capable of intervening in your life for your betterment. This is a spiritual story not a religious one. The journey I will share with you is my own. It starts with an abusive, dysfunctional childhood which leads to a chaotic, anger filled, toxic adulthood. Due to interventions by a Deity I didn’t even believe in, I not only survived my self-destructiveness I was able to turn my life around. This process connected me with a few unbelievable teachers and many cherished guides. What I learned along the path I document in this autobiography. I’ll share with you my lessons and understandings, my Gospel, and cover the subjects of karma, God’s grace, charity, mercy, true spirituality and above all, unconditional love. My hope is that this volume will stimulate you to seek out the source and inspiration of my transformation in your own life.

Book 2 is titled “God Realization.” “God Realization” looks at the current state of religion and why I believe it is a broken concept. The impact of marketing a non-quantifiable product is explored. “God Realization” will provide the reader with a Vedic concept known as Yuga, The Cycle of Ages and how that dynamic impacts the various religious traditions. “God Realization” will look at why I believe the Eastern religions are so different from the Western religions. It will assess the influence of the foundational hunter-gatherer culture on the Abrahamic traditions. “God Realization” will also, above all else, provide an alternative to the perceived problem. “God Realization” is mainly a how-to guide that directs you in the process of reaching and connecting with the Divine Presence in your being, which is the proposed solution to the problems presented in the first part of the book. This guide is based on the 12 Step model but is structured to lead you to a deeper level spiritual connection than the traditional, behavior modification oriented, 12 Step programs. This book includes worksheets for each of the Steps and an interpretation of the 12 Traditions that will allow you, the reader, to form your own supportive spiritual fellowship.

Book 3 is titled “God Heals.” Having been introduced to and then embracing the Divine Presence within yourself, as revealed in book 1, “God Is,” and then by following the guidance provided in book 2, “God Realization,” you have made Spirit the guiding force in your life.  We are then led to ask the question, “what do I do with this realization”? “God Heals” provides one important answer to that question. It will look at how a deep belief in The Creator has been used not only to control one’s body but to heal individuals with life threatening physical and mental disorders. This volume will review healing practices throughout the course of time and provide firsthand accounts of individuals applying spiritual beliefs and practices to facilitate their own ailments.
