The Rebirthing of God

Christianity's Struggle for New Beginnings

By: John Philip Newell

Narrated by: Shawn Compton

In the midst of dramatic changes in Western Christianity, internationally respected spiritual leader, peacemaker, and scholar John Philip Newell offers the hope of a fresh stirring of the Spirit among us. He invites us to be part of a new holy birth of sacred living. Speaking directly to the heart of Christians - those within the well-defined bounds of Christian practice and those on the disenchanted edges - as well as to the faithful and seekers of other traditions, he explores eight major features of a new birthing of Christianity:

• Coming back into relationship with the Earth as sacred
• Reconnecting with compassion as the ground of true relationships
• Celebrating the light that is at the heart of all life
• Reverencing the wisdom of other religious traditions
• Rediscovering spiritual practice as the basis for transformation
• Living the way of nonviolence among nations
• Looking to the unconscious as the wellspring of new vision
• Following love as the seed-force of new birth in our lives and world

Excellent amalgamation of contemplative thought and practical daily application

This compelling performance brings together many basics of the teachings of modern day and historical mystics from world contemplative traditions applying these to our 21st century world in a beautifully practical format. Inspiring!

A rare piece of meditative literature

A beautiful contemplative expression of the birthing of peace in our individual lives and our corporate ones. A scathing critique of the power structures that have misused their power, wrapped in a sincere call to a better path. A path that makes room for the uniqueness of the individual, but calls for the unity of the corporate. I had to listen twice because of its depth, no because I couldn't understand, but that its multifaceted expression required multiple digestions as it affected change in my life. A serious expression of non-violence and peacemaking that is worthy of pursuing. Highly recommend!

Another successful J.P. Newell bok.

book. voice of John Philip Newe comes across in each and every page. He does a convincing job of presenting the oneness of the universe and all that is in it. I highly recommend reading this book.

Deep, mystic, powerful

Deep, mystic, powerful read on God, pilgrimage of Iona island, Celtic traditions, the earth, rebirthing, ….. infusions of Gandhi, Merton, Carl Jung (quite a bit), about the way of love …. I feel not fully doing justice to Christ, yet maybe because of that it is an amazing book for all to read. No matter one’s believe. Quote from the book from a Jewish woman “Believing with Christ”

Love is the answer

I liked the centrality of Love, not a particular religion, as the future. I didn’t like that some of the material was from a book I had previously listened to.
