Imagined Realities
Imagined Realities by Arthur O. R. Thormann, published by PageMaster Publication Services, Incorporated in 2019, is an exploration of the interplay between divine grace and personal growth. This 80-page work delves into the metaphor of shifting gears in a vehicle to illustrate the varying revelations of God’s grace and the tensions experienced at each stage. The author presents a framework for understanding how individuals can navigate their spiritual journeys through these ‘gears of grace.’
Readers will find a thoughtful examination of the necessary discipline, referred to as the ‘clutch,’ that enables one to transition between these stages of grace. Thormann emphasizes that one’s spiritual maturity is directly linked to the depth of understanding and living out of God’s grace. The book engages with themes of religion, spirituality, and personal development, making it a reflective read for those interested in the intersections of faith and social sciences.
Official synopsis Publisher
“You can’t drive at highway speed in first gear, and you can’t live at the speed of destiny in the first gear of grace.”
When you shift through the gears of a vehicle there is tension felt when you reach each gear’s speed limit. Using that as a metaphor, Landen identifies six ‘gears of grace’ or revelations of the nature of God’s grace, along with the tension that one feels when one reaches the speed limit of that revelation.
He then identifies the ‘clutch’ or discipline of a disciple necessary to relieve that tension, allowing for the ‘shift into a new gear’ to grow as a disciple.
One’s maturity in Christ is proportionate to the revelation of God’s grace they live in.
