The "I AM" Project

Recommended Reading

Through the years, as others approach me and ask me what I am doing that causes improvements to my life, I usually discover how serious they are and/or how open they are to a new thinking by recommending the book "ILLUSIONS" by Richard Bach. When I hand this to them, I tell them "If you believe everything in this book could possibly be true, then come back to me and I will give you the second book."

The second book I hand them is "THE FORCE" by Stuart Wilde. If they return after reading this book looking for more, I will either hand them "AFFIRMATIONS" by Stuart Wilde or "THIS THING CALLED YOU" by Ernest S. Holmes. The choice of which book I hand them is dependent on what I am directed to give them from inside...the "I AM" consciousness part of me.

The following are first my recommended Daily Reading and then books and authors that have helped contribute to my philosophy.
 

RECOMMENDED DAILY READING
   

SCIENCE OF MIND MAGAZINE:  Besides its excellent articles, it has a message for each day of the month.  Each day includes a quote from the Bible, Ernest S. Holmes, or another inspirational book.  A nice write up of how the author feels about that subject is included.  It is finished with an Affirmation for that day in regards to the subject matter.

I use this magazine for the teaching of The Ten Week Personal Growth Workshop.
 

The DEACON'S SMALL "CARRY WITH YOU" DAILY GUIDE:  This small booklet includes the Minute Meditations, Daily Affirmations, and other tidbits to help you stay positive through your day.  SPECIAL NOTE:  I recently rewrote this to actually follow the course of how I spend my day in prayer.

If you are interested in this "carry with you" Daily Guide, you may make your request by E-mailing HEREDo not forget to supply an address for mailing.
 

Recommended BOOKS AND AUTHORS

Suggest these books be read in the order listed after reading "ILLUSIONS"
 

BRIDGE ACROSS FOREVER -
ONE -
RUNNING FROM SAFETY
 

AUTHOR:  Ernest S. Holmes
 

THE SCIENCE OF MIND TEXTBOOK

It is difficult to not list this book as a Daily Reading, for I do enter it daily for insight.  Although the Edition that is available is excellent, I personally appreciate the original version which includes sections the newer version does not.  I also offer a 48 Week Extension Course which really teaches one how to understand and implement the teachings of this book into one's life.  These were written by Ernest S. Holmes and Reginald Armour in the late 1930's. 

The 1926 Version of this book can be read here at this site by Clicking HERE.

If you feel that you may have an interest in this Course, please E-mail HERE for details.

Any of Ernest S. Holmes books are worthy to be read.  Also, have found that his brother Fenwicke also wrote some very insightful books.
 

AUTHOR: Stuart Wilde
 

Suggest reading these in the following order after reading THE FORCE.

AFFIRMATIONS -
THE QUICKENING -
