THIS LIFE IS JOY

Roger Teel

Discovering the Spiritual Laws to Live More Powerfully, Lovingly, and Happily

In this extraordinary new book by one of the most admired and successful spiritual teachers in the country, Dr. Teel shows us how every moment, every experience, and every person can be an opening for our soul. Each opening is a portal to greater understanding, more peace and joy, and an overwhelming experience of love.
Separated into three easy-to-use parts, this book will:

Tell a fable that puts our spiritual journey into context. Discuss the seven spiritual principles that are universal to all of the world’s wisdom traditions, becoming a map into our purpose and destiny. Show how nine specific challenges and difficulties (fear, illness, change, etc.) can be transformed into stepping stones rather than stumbling blocks.

Each chapter also includes three parts: the Essence, the Experience, and the Expression. The Essence gives the spiritual teaching behind each principle, the Experience tells a story illustrating the principles from Dr. Teel’s own life or the life of one of his many followers, and the Expression gives specific instructions for the reader to embody that principle for themselves. Filled with advice that can only come from a lifetime of practicing these traditions, this book will be a unique and indispensable guide to people who want more from their lives.

Dr. Roger W. Teel is a life transforming speaker and a global spiritual leader. Through storytelling, humor, and practical spirituality, Dr. Teel’s transforming messages help empower people and lead them to their limitless potential to live dynamically. Dr. Teel holds a degree in psychology and religion, a Doctor of Divinity, and a Doctor of Religious Science degree. He has served as Chairman of the International Board of Trustees for Centers for Spiritual Living, and is Co-founder of the Association for Global New Thought. In 1999, 2001 and 2004, Dr. Teel assisted in facilitating the Synthesis Dialogues with acclaimed global leaders including His Holiness, the Dalai Lama. He has served pulpits in Oregon, California, and in 1993 returned to his home church—Mile Hi Church—where he serves as Senior Minister and Spiritual Director to over 10,000 members and friends. He lives in Colorado.
