Prayer and the Five Stages of Healing

Holy Spirit:

The Boundless Energy of God

by Ron Roth, with Peter Occhiogrosso

(Hay House, 2000)

"The Holy Spirit is a lot more than the wispy image of a dove or the rather abstract theological designation of the Third Person in the Holy Trinity with which most Christians in the West were raised. The Holy Spirit is the active force of God's energy in each of us, guiding and directing us from within. The energy of the Holy Spirit can assist us in being great healers; enthusiastic entrepreneurs; motivating speakers and teachers; or inspirational artists, innovators, or inventors. This book combines a clear explanation of the underlying principles of Spirit--its many symbols, manifestations, and extraordinary gifts--with a series of exercises to help you learn to detect and follow the subtle counseling of the Spirit within you."

PRAYER AND THE FIVE STAGES OF HEALING

by Ron Roth, with Peter Occhiogrosso

(Hay House, 1998)

"Prayer is the key to healing--not only physically, but spiritually and emotionally. Drawing upon the five stages of enlightenment, known as awakening, purification, illumination, dark night of the soul, and divine union, Roth helps the reader "heal into wholeness." The author shares his personal secrets for summoning the energy of the saints, invoking the sacred throughout the day, learning to use silence and solitude, and making forgiveness the linchpin to genuine and effective prayer."
