  • As a Man Thinks by Rev
    Reverend L. J. Capobianco is an ordained Christian Minister. He previously held positions as an Assistant Director for the United Cerebral Palsy Association, pre-school teacher to minority children, ski tour guide, and is a U.S. Air Force veteran. In his mid-thirties he answered a call to enter the ministry and earned degrees from Temple University and Garrett-Evangelical Theological Seminary, then served as a church pastor for over 30 years. Since his retirement he's written several books and also volunteers as a chaplain for the county sheriff's office. As A Man Thinks By Rev. Leonard J. Capobianco Hymns: Love Divine O Jesus I Have Promised Higher Ground Lord Dismiss Us With Thy Blessing ISAIAH 55:6-9 SEEK THE LORD WHILE HE MAY BE FOUND, CALL UPON HIM WHILE HE IS NEAR: LET THE WICKED FORSAKE HIS WAY AND THE UNRIGHTEOUS MAN HIS THOUGHTS: LET HIM RETURN TO THE LORD, THAT HE MAY HAVE MERCY ON HIM, AND TO OUR GOD FOR HE WILL ABUNDANTLY PARDON. FOR MY THOUGHTS ARE NOT YOUR THOUGHTS, NEITHER ARE YOUR WAYS MY WAYS, SAYS THE LORD. FOR AS THE HEAVENS ARE HIGHER THAN THE EARTH, SO ARE MY WAYS HIGHER THAN YOUR WAYS AND MY THOUGHTS THAN YOUR THOUGHTS.” Is this true? Are Gods ways higher than ours? If we believe that – then we’d be pretty foolish to live life differently than what the Bible teaches. I’ve never read, or seen, or heard, or known of any person on earth whose life would not have been improved if they had followed God’s thoughts and not their own.

  • The Joseph Dilemma: Spiritual Advisors and the Burden of Political Access Daniel F. Flores, Ph.D. the Fourteenth Oxford Institu
    Running Head: THE JOSEPH DILEMMA The Joseph Dilemma: Spiritual Advisors and the Burden of Political Access Daniel F. Flores, Ph.D. The Fourteenth Oxford Institute of Methodist Theological Studies History Work Group Pembroke College, Oxon 18 August 2018 THE JOSEPH DILEMMA 2 Abstract Christian ministers have assumed the role of spiritual advisors to Presidents since the founding of the nation. In this capacity, they have provided pastoral counsel and public policy advice to the Commander in Chief. This peculiar marriage between Church and State has not been without criticism. In the present administration, some spiritual advisors compare themselves to the biblical Joseph who found favor with Pharaoh. At issue is that critics insist their privileged access to the President comes with a moral responsibility to speak truth to power. This paper does not attempt to resolve differences between spiritual advisors and their critics. Rather, it is concerned with how presidential spiritual advisors have functioned historically as religious lobbyists, chaplains, and members of focus groups in service of the Church and the White House. THE JOSEPH DILEMMA 3 The Joseph Dilemma The adage is true that it is lonely at the top. On May 26, 1899, President McKinley signed a personal note to himself that he later tucked into his letter book. “My belief embraces the Divinity of Christ and a recognition of Christianity as the mightiest factor in the world’s civilization.” This confession of faith, minimal as it was, was written not to estrange himself from Methodism, but to affirm that his personalized faith still resided in the Methodist communion (Leech, 462).

  • THE POWER of POSITIVE THINKING BROTHER NORMAN VINCENT PEALE MAY 31, 1898 – DECEMBER 24, 1993 the Fall Season Is Here, and Wint
    THE POWER OF POSITIVE THINKING BROTHER NORMAN VINCENT PEALE MAY 31, 1898 – DECEMBER 24, 1993 The Fall season is here, and winter with its arctic blasts of snow and cold will soon be upon us. As the landscape becomes harsh and barren, and the temperatures plummet, it is easy forget the bounteous harvests that the Fall had just brought and that the glory and beauty of Spring are just a few months away. Similarly, in our personal lives, we often become mired down in the problems that confront us daily; our lives seem to lose meaning, purpose, and focus, as a cold blanket of discontent with our lives and surroundings settles miserably down upon us. Members in our lodges face similar problems in trying to deal with the twin problems of membership and overcoming the apathy within the lodge. All too often, when wrapped in the bitter grasp of despondency, we give up and ignore signs of change around us which signal the return of better times. In so doing we fail to take steps which would hasten the onset of renewed growth and prosperity or, even worse, allow opportunity to wither and die because we give up hope or no longer care. We miss the lesson of the seasons and lie buried in a perpetual winter of despair. Some men, however refuse to succumb to the pressures and problems of everyday life, never losing sight of the spring that awaits those who refuse to fail. One of these special men was Dr. and Brother Norman Vincent Peale who touched millions of people during his lifetime with his message that when people seek the assistance of God and utilize the power gained by thinking positively and accepting responsibility for their lives and actions, failure can be turned into success and despondency into happiness.

ESSAY IS THERE STILL A "CATHOLIC QUESTION" IN AMERICA? REFLECTIONS ON JOHN F. KENNEDY'S SPEECH TO THE HOUSTON MINISTERIAL ASSOCIATION* Michael W. McConnellt [Blecause I am a Catholic, and no Catholic has ever been elected President, the real issues in this campaign have been obscured- perhaps deliberately, in some quarters less responsible than this. So it is apparently necessary for me to state once again-not what kind of church I believe in, for that should be important only to me-but what kind of America I believe in. John F.

  • Jefferson Quick, Timely Reads
    Jefferson Quick, Timely Reads Mystics for Skeptics On Trump, Mysticism, and the Power of Positive Thinking By: Reverend Charles Brock June 2020 Donald Trump doesn’t seem to be very religious in any conventional sense. Many will think that “mystic” doesn’t apply to him at all. But he does represent more than himself. He has a huge following out there, especially the evangelical wing of both Protestant and Catholic churches. Why is this? Clearly because Trump represents their views on many subjects, and they are willing to give him a pass on his sexual sins, which shows how important they think his views are parallel to their own – especially on immigration, Israel, a deep state that thwarts good people, abortion, school prayer, “rugged individualism” vs. “socialism,” and white supremacy. Many believe Trump was chosen by God. Trump is a self-proclaimed Presbyterian, which is probably the least mystical in the “presence” mysticism of all the denominations. But they are strong on the will of God. And evangelical Presbyterians bring out identification with Christ and biblical stories in their sermons as a key aspect of the faith. Trump also represents a group of more liberal Christians, not primarily evangelicals, who believe in a self-help gospel known as “the power of positive thinking,” and I want to look at that and compare Rev. Norman Vincent Peale, former minister of Trump’s Marble Collegiate Church, with Reinhold Niebuhr, the leading New York City liberal theologian during the Peale era. Neither were mystics, but they were the major players for the soul of America in their time.

  • George Mair's Book
    Four George Mair’s Book But in the 1990s, following in the footsteps of Peale and Schuller, the leader of the next generation of Church Growth Movement pastors emerged. That man was none other than Rick Warren.1 —George Mair, A Life With Purpose In April 2005, a new book was published about Rick Warren. It was titled A Life With Purpose: Reverend Rick Warren: The Most Inspiring Pastor of Our Time. The book was an extremely favorable presentation of Warren and the Purpose Driven movement. Author George Mair genuinely liked and respected Warren as he described the Saddleback pastor’s life and ministry. Mair’s book was carried in major bookstores around the country—including Christian bookstores. The author’s high regard for Warren was evident throughout A Life With Purpose. Early on in his book, Mair writes: I knew one thing for sure about Rick Warren: his is a fascinating story. A humble man with humble beginnings, he is changing America—and the world—“one soul at a time.”2 After hearing him preach and experiencing Saddleback Church, I understand why millions 51 52 A “Wonderful” Deception are listening to this man, and knew that the story behind the movement deserves to be told.3 His demeanor as the founder and pastor of one of the largest churches in the world reflects a man whose focus is on his mission to serve the Lord by bringing in the unchurched souls—the lost sheep—to embrace and celebrate the saving Grace of Jesus Christ.4 A Life With Purpose is filled with continuous praise for Rick Warren and his Purpose Driven ministry.

  • About Norman Vincent Peale and the Power of Positive Thinking Richard G
    Some Concerns about Norman Vincent Peale and the Power of Positive Thinking Richard G. Howe, Ph.D. I find Paul appealing and Peale appalling. Ascribed to Dr. Howard Hendricks, Professor, Dallas Theological Seminary Introduction Norman Vincent Peale is the author of the best-selling book The Power of Positive Thinking.1 This book has experienced enormous popularity both within and without the Christian community for quite some time. In my speaking on issues related to the content of Peale's book, I have had more reaction to my comments and criticisms of Peale than of any other person I critique. No doubt this reaction stems, at least partially, from the fact that many of Peale's enthusiasts cannot imagine how his philosophy conflicts with anything Christian. This, together with the fact that so many have testified of the life-changing impact positive thinking has had in their own lives, makes many all the more convinced that such a philosophy and approach to life is a very good thing. I will argue that something else is going on. To me, it is regrettable how much of the Christian community considers Peale's teachings to be not only consistent with the Christian world view but a logical and desirable application of that very world view. In this brief analysis, I will summarize exactly what Peale's Positive Thinking is and why its doctrines are not consistent with an evangelical Christian view of reality. "Positive Thinking" Is Not Merely Being Optimistic Many mistakenly think that Peale's "Positive Thinking" is merely an encouragement to be optimistic in one's outlook on life.
