(1888PressRelease)
June 13, 2009 - The LivingHour.org has announced the addition of an SBNR & Progressive Christianity Bookstore to its online activities. The bookstore for spiritual progressives is in association with Amazon.com, and will include non-fiction, poetry and fiction dealing with various subjects. “We are looking to include in our booklist more than just the usual suspects read by Progressive Christians and the SBNR,” says Pastor David, director of The Living Hour.
“Spiritual life in the 21st century should encompass everything, science, history, philosophy, pop culture, literature, etc., and (as Gandhi once said) we should all keep learning about these things as if we expected to live forever,” explains Pastor David.
Included in the first listing of books for Progressive Christians and the SBNR (Spiritual But Not Religious) include Jacques Barzun’s acclaimed history survey From Dawn to Decadence; psychologist Carl Jung’s seminal work on the unconscious, The Undiscovered Self; theologian Paul Tillich’s classic, The Courage to Be; Michael Talbot’s explosive unification of science and spirituality, The Holographic Universe; and Brenda Ueland’s If You Want to Write, a book on art, independence, and living joyfully.
According to Pastor David, all of the books are chosen with the aim to help readers better understand the world and our place in it. In addition, every selection has been read by LivingHour.org and was picked not just for its brilliance but for its clear, crisp, and entertaining writing style. All are highly accessible and will challenge readers’ perceptions in new and exciting ways. New books will be added weekly. Also available from LivingHour.org is the website's free e-book The Lord's Prayer For Daily Life, with New Century Gospels, which provides new insight into Jesus's beloved prayer, as well as his parables and teachings.
