My Spiritual Autobiography: Or How I Discovered The Unselfishness Of God (1903) - Paperback

by Hannah Whitall Smith (Author)

My Spiritual Autobiography: Or How I Discovered The Unselfishness Of God is a book written by Hannah Whitall Smith and published in 1903. The book is a memoir of the author's spiritual journey, tracing her path from a conventional Christian upbringing to a deeper, more personal relationship with God. Smith was a prominent Quaker speaker and writer, and her book reflects her Quaker beliefs in simplicity, peace, and inner guidance. She writes about her struggles with doubt and fear, her experiences of spiritual awakening and renewal, and her encounters with other religious thinkers and leaders. The central theme of the book is the idea of God's unselfishness, which Smith defines as the belief that God's love and grace are freely given, without any expectation of reward or repayment. She argues that this unselfishness is the key to living a truly spiritual life, and that it can transform not only individuals but also society as a whole. Overall, My Spiritual Autobiography is a deeply personal and insightful reflection on the nature of faith, spirituality, and the human experience. It is a valuable resource for anyone seeking to deepen their own spiritual journey and understand the Quaker perspective on these issues.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
