In today's conversation, Brian talks about his new book “Centering Prayer: Sitting Quietly in God's Presence Can Change Your Life.” We talk about what centering prayer is, how this practice has helped Brian grow deeper in his relationship with the Lord, some of the gifts he's received as a result, and how we can start our own journey with this practice. Brian would love to meet you and your group study virtually! When you buy 15 or more copies of his book for a group study, email him at deepdivespirituality@gmail.com. For the first 10 people to do so, he'll reply and set up a time to meet you and your group virtually, lead you through a time of centering prayer and do a brief Q&A session. His book can be purchased on Amazon and we'll link to everything in the show notes. Let's listen!

He is also host of the Deep Dive Spirituality Conversations podcast.   In this episode, Dr. Brain Russell (Author, Professor of Biblical Studies, Spiritual Growth Coach) and I discuss some of the amazing insights and teachings from his upcoming book, Centering Prayer: How Sitting Quietly In God's Presence Can Change Your Life (available Sept. 2021). The heart of The Centering Prayer is to sit quietly, focus attention on a particular word, and ultimately connect with life/reality beyond thought. Through a meditation practice, one is able to connect deeply with God - the transcendent source and essence of life itself. To sit in God's presence is to sit in connection with Being - to experience the majesty of the present moment. All too often we get lost in our thoughts and judgements about ourselves, other people, and the world around us. However, thought is not the be-all and end-all of life - far from it, in fact. Everyone can learn to disidentify their thoughts from their true self and, in doing so, discover the true meaning of Love and God. Although this process of discovery can be challenging and uncomfortable at times, if you embrace it and practice it regularly, you will find that all areas of your life will transform and become empowered.    Pre-order Brian's book, Centering Prayer: How Sitting Quietly In God's Presence Can Change Your Life (available Sept. 2021) , now: https://www.centeringprayerbook.com/    More of Brian: Book: https://www.centeringprayerbook.com/  Coaching: https://drbrianrussellcoaching.com/  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/brianrussellphd/  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/yourprofessorforlife/?hl=en  Twitter: https://twitter.com/briandrussell  More of Shane:  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/shane-pokroy/  Instagram: https://instagram.com/shanepokroy/  Facebook: https://facebook.com/UndergroundAnticsPodcast/  Listen to Underground Antics on your favourite podcast platform
