Let my heart be sound in thy statues: that I be not ashamed. (Psalm 119:80)
We may regard this inspired prayer as containing within itself the assurance that those who keep close to the Word of God shall never have cause to be ashamed of doing so.

But those 100 or so celebrities were just the tip of the iceberg of those who died in the past year. If statistics hold true, more than 54 million died in 2010, and 54 million will die in 2011. If my number comes up, I’m ready. Are you?

Peter Jones explains how the New Age movement has evolved into a global spiritual influence.
You know-the Age of Aquarius, chakras and crystals, Shirley MacLaine’s “going within,” and Marianne Williams, guru to the stars. Well, the stars are coming out, but the New Age is old hat. They were the good ol’ days.
I just signed up for an online forum, Beyond Awakening: The Future of Spiritual Practice. You could say Beyond New Age.

(There are 50 million Cultural Creatives in the USA and 80-90 million in the European Union.)
