My Understanding

My Understanding, Reflections on God, Life and Death is the culmination of the author's spiritual journey that began when some unexpected life events led him to a dedicated study of the Bible and religious writings. He shares his conclusions in this book which is designed to encourage fellow Christians to think more deeply about their beliefs and examine their lives in terms of the instructions God has given us through Christ and the prophets. The Bible contains broad and seemingly conflicting messages that can tempt casual readers to pick and choose verses to justify their actions. Yet a more serious study of God's word in its totality reveals fundamental truths that serve as a guide for Christians on how they should live their lives. In My Understanding, the author discusses ten principles that evolved from his dedicated study of the Bible. The revelations the author shares from his own research can offer guidance to other believers who are seeking a deeper relationship with God. My Understanding includes Bible citations which make this work ideal for individual or group Bible studies. The final chapter, "How then should I live?" presents the author's conclusions to an eternal question that will inspire all readers to reflect on their own beliefs about eternal life. In addition to the ten conclusions about the truths in the Bible, My Understanding includes lyrics from beloved traditional hymns and a list of resources that can help readers enhance their own spiritual journeys.
