Who Inspires L.A. McMurray

Rainn Wilson

Soul Boom:

Why do we need a spiritual revolution? YES YES and a big AMEN YES to every word, question, insight, and action in this book, cover to cover. Read it. Talk about it. Let’s do it!

Philip Goldberg

Spiritual Practice for Crazy Times:

Powerful tools to ultivate calm, clarity, and courage. This book is a real “how to” survive in this upside-down world and refresh our soul. It’s not one religion, it’s a collective of all the best practices delivered in a concise and easy to follow and emulate way. Spiritual practices like the ones shared in this book are not optional anymore, they are a necessity for navigating life.

D.L. Mayfield

Two options equally worth the read, Unruly Saint: Dorothy Day’s radical vision and its challenge for our times, and The Myth of the American Dream: reflections on affluence, autonomy, safety, and power. Both share the “rest of the story” regarding Dorothy Day’s life and calling through the insight of her granddaughter, and the other questions how the core values of the American Dream may not align with Jesus’ command to love our neighbor.

– I’ve Got Questions.

OMG! This is the exact book I wish I could have

written; it’s spot on with being ok to question everything taught by religious people and

the world around us. Excellent read! The author asks excellent questions and validates

all of us asking them!

Wm. Paul Young

change the world.

What Inspires L.A. McMurray

“Between Two Worlds”

From 1944, this movie is set on a boat with passengers who recently passed away but don’t know it, they are not in their final resting place nor in their known world anymore. Think…Carnival Cruise Purgatory. It opens our minds to

judgment, who is one to judge, what is being judged, and helps us examine our own lives and our view of others’ worthiness of heaven.

“The Song of Bernadette”

From 1943, this is the story of the 14-year-old peasant French girl who became famous for her divine vision and the initial ridicule, skepticism,

and jealousy that came with it. It’s the back story to why multitudes of people travel to the grotto in Lourdes, France, for miracles and healing. Her feast day is celebrated on my husband’s birthday, April 16th. God loves that man!

“Lilies of the Field”

A great Sydney Poitier movie from 1963, that demonstrates the perfect timing and unique way God works when people show up, open up, think

different, and respond with love and trust.
