In
the year 2000, we learned that a mantra-style meditation coupled
with a mystical spirituality had been introduced to the evangelical,
Christian church and was infiltrating youth groups, churches,
seminaries, and Bible studies at an alarming rate through the Spiritual Formation movement, the emerging church, the Purpose Driven movement and so forth.
In the spring of 2002, we began Lighthouse Trails Publishing with
the hope of exposing this dangerous and pervasive mystical paradigm—six
months later we published our first release, A Time of Departing by Ray Yungen. We believe every Christian should read this book. Sadly, many Christians are reading and enjoying books like The Shack, Purpose Driven Life, and a multitude of books that are leading away from the Gospel, not to it.
Because
the premise of this spirituality is both pantheistic (God is all
things) and panentheistic (God is in all things), thus refuting
the Gospel message of the Cross, we are compelled to address this
issue—Lighthouse Trails Publishing and our research ministry,
Lighthouse Trails Research Project, are here as a service to the
body of Christ.
Since
publishing A Time of Departing, we have been able to publish
several other books, including some biographies that we consider
exceptional and important. For
instance, one of them, Trapped
in Hitler's Hell, is the true story of a Jewish teen who
became a Christian and lived through the Holocaust in Germany.
She is still alive today, and her story is so powerful and inspirational
that we believe every Christian family should read it. The lessons
we can learn from that time in history are vital and should not
be forgotten.
Each
of the books and DVDs we publish and/or distribute has been prayerfully
chosen ... and we believe the message in each one will help equip
Christian families and loved ones with biblical truth and inspiration
to stand in courage and strength as you defend the faith and walk with Jesus Christ. We join you in that effort, knowing that it
is only by His grace we are able to do so.
Note: Lighthouse
Trails is a Christian publishing company. While we hope you will
read the books we have published, we provide extensive research,
documentation and news on our Research site, blog and newsletter
at no cost with the hope they are a blessing to the body of Christ
and a witness to those who have not yet accepted Jesus Christ
as their Savior and Lord.

We
are dedicated to bringing clarity and light to matters affecting
our society and the church today and to preserving the integrity
of the Gospel.
We
pledge ourselves to uphold the all sufficiency of the atonement
of Christ as the only way of salvation and that any additions
or substitutions to Christ's finished work on the Cross are only
corruptions of the truth.
It
is our belief that the greatest honor any Christian can give to
God is to uphold the shed blood of the Lamb of God as all sufficient
and necessary to salvation to those who cling to it by faith through His grace. There can be no honor
to God to offer up the filthy rags of our own righteousness.
We
recognize the Word of God as the sole authority and basis of
all spiritual and essential truth, and wholeheartedly use it as the guide for all of
our research and each of our conclusions.
