CHAPTER ONE
THE LAW OF SPIRITUAL TRANSFORMATION
And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect will of God.
Romans 12:2
For years, pastors, teachers, ministers, and scholars worked diligently to find ways to help people transform their thinking and ultimately change their lives. I count myself among them. To bring about change in a global society, we need a deeper understanding of Spiritual Transformation, and new models for teaching and learning.
This book brings forth an enhanced level of spiritual understanding that ordinary people can use to transform their thinking, and ultimately renew their minds. I introduce original thought that emerged from my doctoral research on transformative learning. (Caruth, D. 2000) My research findings expanded upon research by Jack Mezirow (1991).
I also drew upon wisdom gained from my understanding of scripture, diversity, poverty, and experiential knowledge in all of their complexities. I share knowledge gained from higher education, having read hundreds of books, biblical studies with pastors and ministers, and having attended church and ministerial conferences, where Apostles, Bishops, Pastors and Ministers enhanced my understanding.
The Spiritual Transformation I discuss in this book is not an emotional experience that can be easily described and understood. It is a scripture-based process of healing that transforms the psycho-cultural assumptions that distort the way we see ourselves. I introduce 6 Keys that illuminate a new process of learning, and will enhance your understanding of the Law of Spiritual Transformation.
