What We Believe That Makes Us Different: A New Thought Journey Through An Orthodox Land

Although he grew up in Unity, Charles DeTurk also grew up in the secular world of the later half of the twentieth century. That world was often much more orthodox than his evolving spiritual beliefs. All of his life he was pursued by the fact that others didn't believe as he did. Many of them enjoyed questioning him about his beliefs. Finally, at the age of 50, he was forced to come out of the spiritual closet and confront the issue of just what it was that he really believed. This book is the result of that spark of awareness. It is ten interwoven statements of a belief system that many share today in the realms of New Thought, spirituality, quantum physics, and metaphysics. Written in a down-to-earth style, Charles easily explains concepts that are often deep and profound. In this volume, he attempts to give the reader an understanding of a new sense of consciousness that is enveloping millions worldwide. Although grounded in the teachings of the ministry of Jesus, Charles finds correlations that enhance Jesus' simple yet profound message. These include other teachers and seekers from many varied backgrounds, including some of the latest thinking in the realm of quantum physics. He is often fond of saying that he guarantees that you will discover some new ideas that you never considered before by reading his work. In a time when there are literally thousands of new teachers, counselors, practitioners, and speakers popping up every day, Charles brings a message that is free of much of the growing new age ritual that is bringing unnecessary complexity to a basically simple message. This message is a set of concepts that are easily applicable to anyone's everyday life. Charles and an increasing number of others in the world are helping to bring the simplicity of this message and this teaching back into the forefront of human consciousness. An easy and entertaining read that will have you laughing, wondering, and thinking as you consider where next to go with your life.
