The Adventure of Being Human: Lessons on Soulful Living from the Heart of the Urantia Revelation

Amplifying the core spiritual teachings of The Urantia Book--a unique and thrilling revelatory book first published in 1955--this guide introduces the two central deity-personalities of the Urantia revelation: Christ Michael--Jesus--and his feminine, coequal consort, Mother Spirit. As the study relates, these two deities maintain intimate contact with their sons and daughters, demonstrating their love through an unprecedented series of teachings. In one short volume, this compilation chronicles Jesus' own awe-inspiring lessons--updated for the 21st century--along with essential introductory and background materials. The wisdom provided here offers heartfelt instructions on the art of living, making a challenging cosmological reference concise and accessible.
