The
whole of the New Testament, especially the four gospels,
is a powerful source of revelation and inspiration for life.
However, modern minds are often unable to access this source
of life. The gospels require of modern minds a different
way of reading, listening, and hearing.
Hearing
the gospel readings in The Act of Consecration of Man—often
in new, imaginative translations—sets in motion the
change of consciousness that opens the mind to the inner
world of the gospels. New ways of working with the gospels
in study groups and courses build on this awakening and
support it with growing understanding.
The
eight decades since the founding of The Christian Community
have seen the growth of a rich treasure of literature on
the gospels and religious life. These writings open a path
to a deeper understanding of the true human being revealed
in the gospels, and show how the gospels can be cultivated
as instruments for personal growth and inner development.
