PENSACOLA, Fla. (PRWEB)
May 15, 2023

Growing up under the influence of her family’s religious teaching and beliefs of the Catholic Church, Reverend Lisa R. Kelson spent a large portion of her life succumbing to their patriarchal teachings and ignoring her own inner compass. In her new book, “A Lesbian’s Awakening to Purpose, Self-Love, and God: A Soul’s Journey to Self-Awareness, Identity, and Truth,” she shares her personal journey to spiritual enlightenment and coming to terms with her authentic self.

“It has taken me nearly 60 years to wake up to my true authentic self as a lesbian,” Kelson said. “In my younger days, I had no idea that there was a deeper and higher self, waiting to be discovered. For many years, I lived from my lower aspect, while trying to fit into society’s social rules and norms.”

In “A Lesbian’s Awakening to Purpose, Self-Love, and God,” Kelson uses her personal experience as an example of how readers can break free of their preconceived ideals of who they are expected to be, and instead free their souls to be their true selves. She addresses the harm that can come from religious teachings, and how it can be exclusionary to those the church does not deem “perfect.”

“When one begins breaking down scripture, outside the oppressive lens of patriarchy,” Kelson said, “one can finally understand how scripture is misunderstood in our current age. These writings were written in an oppressive era, and the literal interpretation are not in alignment with deeper truths.”

Kelson doesn’t want readers to rely on anyone else’s truth, instead she wants them to discover their own.

“My hope in sharing my awakening journey,” Kelson said, “is to help those who feel lost and out of sorts with life. This journey is spiritual and not religious. The answers are already within, waiting to be uncovered.”

This book shows that science and faith aren’t in mutual opposition, but highly complementary.

FAIRFIELD, Conn. (PRWEB)
May 08, 2023

Author James A. Cannon, Ph.D. explains the faith behind physics in Finding the Light: Science and its Vision ($15.99, paperback, 9781662865787; $29.99, dust jacket, 9781662865794; $7.99, e-book, 9781662865800).

Contrary to the popular belief that science opposes Christian faith, Cannon teaches that historical physical science, as well as modern physics, follow faith’s universal promptings within the human heart. He demonstrates how both have flourished together in the lives of prominent scientists throughout history, and argues that faith in God is a guardian of classical realism, the philosophical foundation of science.

This book shows that science and faith aren’t in mutual opposition, but highly complementary.

Dr. James A Cannon (b.1933 – d.2020), after serving in the US Navy during the Korean war, studied and practiced journalism as managing editor of the Fordham University newspaper. Then he switched his area of concentration to physics. He earned an MA at Columbia and a B.S. and Ph.D. at Fordham. He did basic research at Bell Labs, but having the heart of a teacher, he left to pursue a career spanning five decades as a revered professor of physics and chemistry at Pace University in New York. A neurological injury led to retirement. He suffered for a dozen years until complications from Parkinson’s and Covid-19 took his life. During this time, with of the able assistance of his devoted wife, Monica, Dr. Cannon wrote Finding the Light: Science and its Vision, a testament to his life’s work, his Catholic faith, his love of science and his love of teaching.

After administering a survey about grief, the respondents indicated they wanted to have a biblical basis for grief care. I chose the Bible book of Job because it was very familiar.

It’s a lesson for all to trust that God’s plans are good.

I chose the Bible book of Job because it was very familiar.
