Ever wonder about the books that changed the lives of souls like Louise Hay or Neale Donald Walsch? Author Gay Hendricks did.
“I was at Jack Canfield’s house and there happened to be a bunch of transformational leaders at the gathering. The subject of ‘books that had changed our lives’ came up. Everyone had one. One after another, their eyes would light up as they relived the experience,” Hendricks said. “I hadn’t heard of most of these books,” he continued. “I quickly went out and bought them. And I started collecting stories.”
Hendricks is now organizing a book club dedicated to republishing these unique titles. Beginning this June, the Transformational Book Circle will forward a new book each month, along with stories from leading spiritual authors whose lives were transformed by the book. An accompanying audio CD will include exercises intended to further illuminate the text.
Neale Donald Walsch, for example, credits the James Allen classic As a Man Thinketh for opening his heart and preparing his soul for his bestselling Conversations With God.
Some of the older texts will be revised into modern language. Hay House will republish many of the selected works as special editions for the book circle. “Many years ago I read an author who opened my eyes and my heart,” says publisher and bestselling author Louise Hay. “Her work is not easy to find today.”
“I’m interested in creating communities of people who believe that personal and global transformation is possible,” said Hendricks, who is also a co-founder of the home delivery DVD club, the Spiritual Cinema Circle.
