{Book Review} "7 Days With Adam" by Jay Speights



Welcome to My Cozie Corner's stop on the 
"7 Days With Adam" book tour. 
This tour is brought to you by Innovative Book Tours.


BLURB:


 7 Days With Adam is a brilliantly crafted work about Adam, the first man, who visits the author and  shatters many of his core beliefs about God, creation, the basic nature of humans and this world. He has astonishing revelations about his and Eve's real legacy. After the 7 day visit, he leaves the author enlightened with actual exercises, prayers and meditative techniques that we can all use to access our Divine Inner Power and achieve mastery in our lives. This book is a testament to the value of storytelling in spirituality, and to disciplined spiritual practice, as well as being attuned to the Higher Self and Divine Inner Light that is in all of us.


About the Author, Jay Speights:


Jay Speights is an award winning author, chaplain, spiritual coach, and Director of The New Seminary, the oldest Interfaith Seminary in the world.  His multi-faith approach has lead him to continuously search for common universal truths about God, creation, and existence. Jay believes we must always strive to be attuned to our Higher Self, which is reflected in his discipline of prayer, meditation, daily spiritual practice and writing.

For many years he was a contributor to The Washington Times Online Edition and religionandspirituality.com, where he provided social, spiritual, and political commentary focused on getting people to interact and relate on a higher level. A November 2009 Post from his Washington Times Blog , motivated the City Council of Washington, DC, to pass a resolution declaring March 20, 2010, "Polite Day". The resolution was the result of his post asking the DC Government to appeal to DC residents, political leaders and commuters to be more polite and civil as they move about their neighborhoods and business in the city. In November 2007 he received the Humanitarian Award from The Punjabi Literary Society for Distinguished Commentary at Lincoln Center in New York for his commentary about the how Sikhs are subjected to harsh treatment because of their faith and cultural tradition.

Jay is a graduate of Howard University, where he earned a BA in Political Science and  MA in Public Affairs. In 2005, he graduated from The New Seminary For Interfaith Studies in New York, was ordained by The Interfaith Temple also in New York, and  is enrolled at Wesley Theological Seminary for postgraduate work in Ecumenism.

Jay pens "7 Days With Adam" in a unique way, delivering spiritual ideas, suggestions, and questions that you might not have thought you had. I found the book to be very creative and knowledgeable, but I would suggest keeping an open mind as you may not agree with what is written. A must read for all.
