"A collection of writings on the subject of heaven from some of the greatest religious thinkers of the Christian faith"--Provided by publisher.

All inhabitants of this terrestrial plane are, to some degree, influenced by a dual nature: an outward sense of mortal self and an inner sense of higher Self. This duality keeps us at odds, resulting in a divided consciousness and a life of conflict. A Glimpse into Your Spiritual Identity presents a compilation of the early works of authors Stephen and Lynn Jay, originally published in 1982. Through a penetrating study of the mind and an exposé of human nature, it reveals a step-by-step journey toward gaining a greater understanding of and mastery over self. Dominion over the self is brought to pass by an application of the basic underlying principles of life and from becoming acquainted with your Soul. When consciousness is aligned with heaven, the windows of the Soul are flung open, allowing us a glimpse into our reality. This guide refreshes consciousness in remembrance and reinforces resolve with the newness and excitement of soul discovery and exploration. A Glimpse into Your Spiritual Identity is a foundational book to spring from or to act as a reminder of lessons that many of us tend to skim over as we spiritually progress on our odyssey of discovering our Soul.

In her new poetry collection, A Glimpse of His Glory, author Leila Hayes explores the ups and downs of life. She considers the deep valleys that we find ourselves in sometimes, the high mountains that we must climb, the highs and lows of human experiences, and the ins and outs of bad situations. From the cradle to the grave, we are bombarded with difficulties and trials. These poems examine what humanity goes through daily and takes a long look at the big, beautiful, and wondrous world of nature—all that is in it and all that it has to offer. The verses paint vivid images of the sky, the constellations, the galaxies, the sun, the moon, the stars, and the Milky Way. Nature comes from God, and He uses it to teach us some very valuable and important lessons. Smile Anyway It’s hard to smile when you are hurting, When your heart and soul are almost breaking, But try to hold your head high, And keep a bright light in your eye, And trust Him for all your tomorrows.

The #1 Irish Times bestseller An anthology of the very best Irish short stories, selected by Sinéad Gleeson, author of Constellations. There have been many anthologies of the short story as it developed in Ireland, but never a collection like this. The Art of the Glimpse is a radical revision of the canon of the Irish story, uniting classic works with neglected writers and marginalised voices – women, LGBT writers, Traveller folk-tales, neglected 19th-century authors and the first wave of 'new Irish' writers from all over the world now making a life in Ireland. Sinéad Gleeson brings together stories that range from the most sublime realism to the downright bizarre and transgressive, some from established literary figures and some that have not yet been published in book form. The collection draws on a tremendous spectrum of experience: the story of a prank come good by Bram Stoker; Sally Rooney on the love languages of the new generation; Donal Ryan on the pains of ageing; Edna O'Brien on the things we betray for love; James Joyce on a young woman torn between the familiar burdens and oppression of her home and the dangerous lure of romance and escape; and the internal monologue of a woman in a coma by Marian Keyes. Here too are vivid and less familiar stories by Chiamaka Enyi-Amadi, Oein De Bharduin, Blindboy Boatclub and Melatu Uche Okorie. Sinead Gleeson's anthology is a marvellous representation of a rich literary tradition renewing itself in the 21st century. Contributing authors include: Samuel Beckett, Sally Rooney, Melatu Uche Okirie, William Trevor, Marian Keyes, Kevin Barry, Edna O'Brien, Claire-Louise Bennett, Sheridan Le Fanu, Danielle McLaughlin, Máirtín Ó Cathain, Frances Molloy, Blindboy Boatclub, Elizabeth Bowen, Frank O'Connor, Chiamaka Emyi-Amadi, John McGahern, Anne Enright, Mike McCormack, Maeve Brennan, Oein de Bhairduin, Eimear McBride, Seán Ó'Faoláin, Cathy Sweeney.
