Who Do You Think You Are?: Understanding Personality From the Inside Out
by Tina Thomas&“Step aside Dr. Phil; move over Dr. Oz. I truly believe that Dr. Tina Thomas is to personality psychology what Einstein was to physics . . .&” (Eric Schulze, MD, PhD, researcher, CEO Lifetrack Medical Systems). As Dr. Thomas explains, &“There is no such thing as a difficult person, just people with difficult personalities!&” Those who understand personality and its biological basis never look at themselves or others in the same way again. Understanding personality this way will help you to understand what motivates you and others. This will also improve your ability to communicate. Who Do You Think You Are? will teach you how to adjust your internal and external environments to optimize your specific personality chemistry to become the person you always hoped you could be and create the life circumstances you only dreamed were possible. And, if that isn&’t extraordinary enough, this new knowledge will create more compassion within yourself and more peace within all the relationships you ever had, have now, or will have in the future. Understanding yourself from the inside out may be the single most important body of information you ever need to reach your full potential. Who do you think you are? You may be delighted and surprised when you discover yourself this way! &“Dr. T has an uncanny ability to combine the art of psychology and the science of biology to create elegant ways to increase self-compassion, improve relationships and help people to become self-actualized.&” —Richard Tscherne, PhsD, clinical psychologist, director of The Gestalt Institute and Relationship Center of New York

Who God Says You Are: A Christian Understanding of Identity
by Klyne R. SnodgrassWHO ARE YOU? For respected New Testament scholar Klyne Snodgrass, this is the most important question a person can ask—the question from which everything else in life flows.

In this book Snodgrass offers wise guidance to all who are wrestling with such universal human questions. He examines nine factors—including one&’s body, personal history, commitments, and boundaries—that shape human identity, and he expertly draws out what the Bible tells us about who God says we are, how we fit within God&’s purposes, and how our God-given identity can and must impact the way we live our lives.

Who Is The Earth?: How To See God in the Natural World
by Charles UptonEver since the advent of "earth-based spiritualities" in our time, the call to realize the Divine Immanence, to see God in the forms of the natural world and the particular events of our lives, has become paramount. And yet, without a corresponding sense of the Divine Transcendence, we find ourselves drawn towards a kind of glamourized materialism, worshipping visible realities at the expense of the Invisible, taking as our deity a physical planet with a beginning and an end in time, instead of the living and eternal God, Who is before all beginnings and beyond all ends. This bias toward the Immanent as against the Transcendent (leading to the loss of both of them) has cast a shadow on the traditional religions, especially the Abrahamic ones: Judaism, Christianity and Islam. It has hidden from us the dimensions of those religions wherein it is explicitly stated that "the heavens declare the Glory of God and the earth shows forth His handiwork." In this book, the author attempts to right this balance by showing the place of the contemplation of the natural world, and a respect for the Earth, in all the traditional religions: Hinduism, Buddhism, Zoroastrianism, Taoism, Judaism, Christianity, Islam, and the Native American spiritualities. Even the Lakota understand that this "Mother Earth" is not the absolute Reality, that behind her stands "Grandmother Earth," and behind her, Wakan Tanka, the Great Mystery itself. To mistake the Earth for God is to place a burden upon her that she is unable to bear, to deplete her resources and ultimately jeopardize her survival. But if we can regain the ability to contemplate God as He is in Himself, then this living Earth, and the material universe around us, will take their proper place in this contemplative act. They will be revealed as God's icon, the ensemble of His placeless and eternal signs manifesting in space and time, appearing through the only medium capable of bringing God and His universe together into perfect union: the human form. Charles Upton is a serious thinker from whom I have learned much. His writing merits close attention. Huston Smith, author of The World's Religions, etc.
Who Is My Enemy?: Welcoming People the Church Rejects
by Rich NathanAre You at War with Someone Jesus Loves? Many Christians are. We find it much easier to judge those outside the church than to love them. Yet Jesus did not come to condemn the world, but to save it. It is time we took on his attitude of servanthood--time to share not canned presentations, but our hearts and lives. Rich Nathan helps us understand how. Tackling five knotty current issues, he takes us inside the worldviews and street-level realities of postmodernists, New Agers, homosexuals, feminists, and liberals in order to better understand them, and to see beyond categories to real faces, real needs, and real hearts that long to be welcomed. Nathan reveals both the errors that we must challenge, and unexpected truths that will challenge us. Most important, he helps us to see individuals who long to experience the redemptive touch of Jesus--through us.
Who Is This King of Glory? A Critical Study of the Christos-Messiah Tradition: A Critical Study Of The Christos-messiah Tradition
by Alvin KuhnAlvin Kuhn’s "Who Is This King of Glory? A Critical Study of the Christos-Messiah Tradition" is a thought-provoking and scholarly examination of the origins and evolution of the Christos-Messiah concept. Kuhn, a distinguished philosopher and historian of religion, delves deeply into ancient texts, religious traditions, and historical contexts to unravel the complex and often misunderstood identity of the Messiah.Kuhn's book offers a comprehensive analysis of the Christos-Messiah tradition, tracing its roots back to pre-Christian and pagan mythologies. He explores how ancient civilizations, including the Egyptians, Greeks, and Persians, influenced the development of the messianic figure that would later become central to Christian theology. Through meticulous research and critical insight, Kuhn sheds light on the syncretic nature of religious beliefs and the ways in which early Christian thinkers adopted and adapted existing myths and symbols."Who Is This King of Glory?" challenges conventional understandings of the Messiah by presenting a broader historical and cultural perspective. Kuhn examines the symbolic and allegorical meanings behind the Christ figure, emphasizing the spiritual and philosophical messages that transcend literal interpretations. His work encourages readers to consider the Christos not merely as a historical figure but as a universal archetype representing the divine potential within every human being.Kuhn's writing is both accessible and erudite, making complex ideas understandable for a wide audience. His critical approach invites readers to question traditional narratives and to explore the deeper spiritual truths that underpin religious traditions. The book is richly annotated with references to ancient texts, providing a valuable resource for further study.This compelling study not only enhances our understanding of religious history but also inspires a deeper appreciation for the timeless quest for spiritual enlightenment and the universal themes that connect humanity across cultures and epochs.

Who Moved The Stone?
by Frank MorisonEnglish journalist Frank Morison had a tremendous drive to learn of Christ. The strangeness of the Resurrection story had captured his attention, and, influenced by skeptic thinkers at the turn of the century, he set out to prove that the story of Christ's Resurrection was only a myth. His probings, however, led him to discover the validity of the biblical record in a moving, personal way. Who Moved the Stone? is considered by many to be a classic apologetic on the subject of the Resurrection. Morison includes a vivid and poignant account of Christ's betrayal, trial, and death as a backdrop to his retelling of the climactic Resurrection itself.--Print Ed.Reviews:"It is not only a study on the Resurrection account as the title seems to suggest, but it retells the whole passion of Jesus Christ. Because the author does not concern himself with textual criticism, he is able to impress on the reader a consistent picture of the events of Passion and Resurrection. For this reason the book will perform a helpful service to everyone who wants a reconstruction of those events."--Augustana Book News"A well-arranged summary of events relating to the resurrection of Christ and the pros and cons in the debate over their acceptance with emphasis on the latter."--Watchman Examiner"The story Mr. Morison has told of the betrayal and the trial of Christ is fascinating in its lucid, its almost incontrovertible, appeal to the reason. For me, he made those scenes live with a poignancy and vividness that I have found in no other account, not even in the various attempts that have been made to present the same facts in the guise of a novel."--J. D. Beresford

Who on Earth Are You?
by Nick InmanWhen Nick Inman's bank asked him to identify himself he realized he had an interesting problem. Who was he really? How did he know who he was? And how on earth could he prove it beyond doubt that the person inside his head was the same as the person outside, as detailed on his documentation?Moving like a detective story, this book pieces together the formula or recipe for a complete human being, listing ingredients from the prosaic to the surprising.Self-knowledge - even merely posing questions about our true nature - is an essential part of personal growth; but its more important than that. All knowledge depends on it: how can we know anything if we don't know who is asking the questions and giving sense to reality? Can we be truly virtuous and empathetic if we don't know where these feelings stem from?En route to its destination, the book addresses some intriguing conundrums. Can science offer a complete description of an individual; without accepting the existence of mind, consciousness and spirit? Are we in danger of losing ourselves as we are taken over by our virtual identities? How does suffering shape us and equip us to help others to heal? Is technology (biometrics) the best way to decide between friend and foe? And what will be the future for the human soul when we allow machines to become "people" too?
