The Crabby Angels Chronicles: Radical Guidance on Love, Healing, Happiness, Inner Peace and Creating Miracles in Everyday Life [Paperback]

Jacob Glass (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: February 3, 2010

Wouldn't it be great to have a little message from Heaven every day to send you on your way? Or a kind of oracle like the I Ching or the Runes with a modern voice to give some direction when you have a question? The Crabby Angels Chronicles is just that, the book that the author's fabulous, nutty, funny, loving stalker angels wanted him to write. They've been after him for so long so he decided to let them write their book now. They're a nutty bunch who fit his life perfectly.

Jacob Glass, along with his Angelic Guides, has written a handy spiritual tool kit to soothe, uplift, guide, direct, and renew you on your daily walk through a sometimes overwhelming world in which it is easy to lose connection with what really matters and what is really true. Direct, simple and based on the profound principles of A Course in Miracles, these short lessons are here to give you the comfort and peace that you deserve by reminding you of who you are and why you came here.

About the Author

Jacob Glass is a spiritual author, teacher, and international supermodel. That last part may not be entirely accurate. His live lectures are funny, irreverent and full of practical and impractical insights. He has been lecturing on spirituality and A Course in Miracles full-time for nearly twenty years throughout Southern California where he lives.

Finally, Jacob Glass has delivered a book that with the humor that makes spiritual lessons easier for us lightweights to grasp. This is like his lectures in the early '90's, when he used to say that the hardest thing he did to prepare his lectures was, "Pick out what I was going to wear." Back then, he provided the mouth and we got the message. Irreverent but relevant. Profane but profound.
As a "spiritual plop book" the idea is to let the book open itself and read the page that appears.
The first page that plopped open for me was the prayer: "Dear God, I assume that You are in control here. I'll be very interested to see how you work this out. If you need me, you know where to find me. Thanks so much. Amen." That works for me.
The second plop page had a word in the title that would cause my mother to throw the book away. "F**k You My Brother" reminded me of an important lesson about how words mold our thoughts.
I really recommend this book. I plan to keep it handy and and plop it when I am perplexed.

I don't know if he would like that... but it's what I tell my friends. He's truly that funny sometimes. One of the many things I love about the writing in this book is that it's not all new age-y and rainbows and peace signs. I mean, I love Louise Hay, but sometimes I need to hear from someone who is closer to my no nonsense mind set. Jacob Glass is able to get through to me like no other teacher has ever been able to. He is funny, soothing, wise.. and just a little bit pushy. I need a pushy teacher to get me up off my spiritually lazy ass and into better and more healthy spiritual habits. This book is something I'm able to pick up at any time of the day or night-- open up and get immediate comfort and help with any problem my crazy ego might be throwing at me. The entries are only a page or two.... but chock full of insight, helping you to turn around and see your predicament, ANY predicament, from a different and more helpful, constructive and SOOTHING perspective. Also, the great thing about these short chapters is that they make for easy multiple readings... and every time you get something different from them. I find after a few readings I'm getting them on a deeper level. This book is a great tool to have on hand to help you get through those "ego attacks" so many of us have throughout the day. Start reading this book and people will notice there is something different about you... you're more centered, calm, you're happier. And nothing has necessarily changed in your life. The outside circumstances may be the same... but you've changed how you look at your life and that is the "real secret"!

This book is a must have for any library. It is filled with practical wisdom for everyday life. It is the best manual on how to live in a physical world as a spiritual being. It will teach you how much power you really possess to be happy and fulfilled. It is delivered in a down-to-earth, wry and sometimes very funny manner in order to make the most profound tenets more palatable. It is designed to read one "Chronicle" a day. Go through it consecutively or flip it open and see what you get. In either case, I think you will agree that the advice and lessons are invaluable.
