Amazon Category:  Inspirational Publisher: PublishAmerica ISBN-10:  1591293383 Pages: 175 Copyright: Mar 13, 2001 A fresh practical look at the basic foundations of Christianity, correlating them to Bloom's Taxonomy of cognitive brain development, for spiritual abundance. This taxonomy, also known as higher order thinking skills, classifies the levels of intellectual behavior in the cognitive domain that are necessary for learning. These levels are widely used by classroom teachers all over the United States. In this book Bloom's six levels of Knowledge, Comprehension, Application, Analysis, Synthesis and Evaluation are correlated to ther Christian foundations of; Knowing the Word, Comprehending the Holy Spirit, Applying Obedience to the word, Analyzing Self through Prayer, Synthesizing through Faith and Evaluating character known as the Fruit of the Spirit. The six levels of the taxonomy when used correctly raise's one's thinking to a higher level of knowledge depth and understanding in a hierarchical fashion. This process when followed, ensures that spiritual growth will take place thereby, increasing the blessings of God into your life.  Excerpt Spiritual abundance is the abundant life that Christ speaks of in St. John 10:10 (KJV). Abundant means esisting in great overflowing quantities; very plentiful; abounding; rich and well supplied. The abundant life that Christ speaks of is a qualitative lifestyle with high moral and ethical standards, full of purpose and meaning, founded on the word of God. Spiritual abundance means that you are rich in the knowledge of the word of God, and have the attributes of righteousness working in your life, as you grow increasingly more Christ-like. Spiritual abundance occurs as we lay up treasures for ourselves in heaven by being rich in good deeds and being generous and willing to share, as we put our hope in God, who richly provides us with everything for our enjoyment (1 Tim. 6:18-19). In this way, these treasures are a firm foundation for the coming age, so that we may take hold of the life that is truly abundant. For these are the riches that will carry us to heaven. In addition, natural abundance is released as believers work in the Kingdom of God laying up treasures in heaven, resulting in showers of blessings here on earth. For when Christians get spiritual abundance, they also receive the blessings the Lord has promised to all faithful believers.

Awesome Read * * * * * * * * * *
Higher Order Thinking Skills for Spiritual Abundance is an awesome book! The author has taken a concept used by classroom teachers all over the world and applied it to learning the scriptures. It is thoughtful, clever, insightful, and will really make you think about where you are in Christ. As an educator, I think it is awesome that someone would take a concept like Bloom's Taxonomy and use it to help others learn and develop in their faith. Thank you, Jeanette McKenzie for such a tremendous piece of literature. I await further publications from you in the future.
