Born and educated in Scotland, Brian worked as a government scientist until God called him into full-time Christian ministry on behalf of the Churches of God (www.churchesofgod.info). His voice has been heard on Search For Truth radio broadcasts for over 30 years during which time he has been an itinerant Bible teacher throughout the UK and Canada. His evangelical and missionary work outside the UK is primarily in Belgium and The Philippines. He is married to Rosemary, with a son and daughter.
Mindfulness is the trendy meditation offshoot recently endorsed by everyone from National Health Service departments in the UK to Oprah Winfrey in the US. In view of its possible Buddhist origins and the danger of becoming self-absorbed, is there a such a thing as a Biblical Mindfulness that Jesus could endorse? That's the question that Brian Johnston answers in his timely new book, as he re-introduces us to the transforming power of biblical meditation which, instead of emptying the mind, fills it with a sense of the presence and immediacy of God, and His relevance to what we're experiencing at any moment.
Topics include filling our minds not emptying them, having a sense of God's presence, power and purposes, being mindful of the things of God, renewing your mind, changing your mind (and your life) in '4 r's, putting off (the forgotten biblical discipline of mortification), using the 'SIMPLEST' method of transformation, achieving soberness of mind, exercising a listening and discerning mind, having the mind and attitude of Christ, being mindful of what ultimately matters, and focusing on the beauty of God's glory.
