This new thought manifesto challenges readers to follow Jesus' dictum that his followers should be "e;the light of the world."e; What makes Martella-Whitsett's approach so refreshing is that it offers a path for those interested in living a deep and authentic life outside of the strictures of traditional religious categories. It is, in essence, how to be spiritual without being religious. Her starting point is that we need to jettison traditional notions of God as being out there and above us. God is not a super-human who gives and takes, punishes and rewards and requires human suffering and repentance. Rather, Martella-Whitsett encourages readers to embark on a journey of discovery and embrace a spiritual practice in which readers connect with their inner "e;light"e; and realise their oneness with God. The result of that journey and practice will be a life lived audaciously – a kind of mindful living in which moments of enlightenment occur frequently. DIVINE AUDACITY is in three parts: Part One looks at just what "e;divine light"e; is and how it is both audacious and normal to claim it for ourselves. Part Two outlines 12 spiritual powers we all have and can develop and use on a daily basis. These are the lights of faith, understanding, will, imagination, zeal, power, love, wisdom, strength, order, release and life. Part Three, How to be the Light of the World, Moment by Moment is filled with illustrations of how common human circumstances can be enriched, transformed and improved by consciously shining the light of our spiritual powers.
