The end of the year is an often important period, characterized by the rampant increase in tasks and deadlines as many try to finish as much work as possible for the end of the year.
Even though another year is about to begin, people are still very anxious and unsure where to go next. We are midway through a tumultuous decade already, the past few years seeing the world continue to evolve rapidly beyond the shadow of a global pandemic.
In this anxious time, hope still remains, even if it’s hard to make out.
Bookshelf PH is pleased to announce the Light Trilogy, a unique set of works written by Karl Abad, chronicling his reflections and spiritual journey growing up and during the pandemic.
Originally written for his online ministry, the Fellowship League, this trilogy comprises three installments: “Light out of Darkness: Reflections for the Last Century”, “Deep in the Shallow, Profound in the Superficial”, and “Life Letters”.
LIGHT OUT OF DARKNESS
Part memoir, part historical analysis, and part essay, Light out of Darkness is a thorough look into the spiritual and societal challenges which defined the 20th century. Reflecting on these events, Abad invites us to question humanity, and the frequent struggle between light and darkness. Only through the eternal wisdom and truths of Jesus Christ, can we finally be able to understand the calamities, both large and small, that affect us and the world. The answers are not found in earthly pleasures, but only in the spiritual realm.
DEEP IN THE SHALLOW, PROFOUND IN THE SUPERFICIAL
After delving into the state of the Word, Abad invites us to dive into the hidden realms of spiritual warfare and to discern the truths behind good and evil, as well as who really drives the world. In this world of lies, the only truth is Christ Jesus.
LIFE LETTERS
The final part of the trilogy, Life Letters, complements the spiritual journey by integrating both the data-driven, historical, and personal approaches through the use of scriptures and poems to make a unique approach to understanding the human soul. Readers are invited to reflect on their own journeys thus far, and seek the true answer to all questions and the foundation of everything, Christ Jesus.
For Spiritual Awakening
Ultimately, the trilogy is a powerful tool for anyone wanting to seek clarity in this messy and chaotic world. Above all, it is a book of reflections. As Abad writes,
“Reflection sustains lives, it gives space to refuel and to rekindle. It is also a place to rest in the presence of Jesus. It is a place to talk to Jesus and hear His soft voice and feel His soft touch.
As part of this reflection, I desire to journey
with you to the light of Jesus that can lead us to eternity out of darkness. I desire
you to seek this light out of such darkness and finally help other people see this
same light, who is Jesus Himself.”
