Michael Shreve

Shreve interrogates the intricate relationship between spiritual identity and religious conversion, using his personal journey as a framework for understanding broader religious dynamics. Raised Roman Catholic, Shreve initially pursued Eastern spiritual practices, teaching Kundalini Yoga at several Florida universities. His dramatic conversion to Christianity during the Jesus Movement profoundly altered his spiritual direction, which he now channels into Christian evangelism and comparative religion. His work seeks to illuminate the biblical promises and spiritual identities available to believers, drawing from his own transition from Eastern mysticism.\n\nIn his extensive body of work, which includes over sixteen books, Shreve explores themes of Christian spiritual identity and critiques New Age ideologies. His notable book, "65 Promises from God for Your Child", exemplifies his focus on revealing God’s promises to believers. Moreover, his publishing company, Deeper Revelation Books, supports Christian writers in bringing their messages to a wider audience. Shreve’s literary approach often combines personal testimony with apologetics and biblical exposition, providing readers with insights into the promises and names of God for His children. \n\nReaders benefit from Shreve's writings as they navigate their spiritual identities, gaining clarity on their roles "in Christ." His works, including a popular radio devotional series, "Our Glorious Inheritance", serve as a guide for believers looking to deepen their understanding of their faith. Through his international ministry campaigns and teaching roles, Shreve impacts diverse audiences, encouraging them to explore and embrace their spiritual identities while critiquing and understanding different religious perspectives. His contributions to Christian literature and ministry have been recognized with an honorary Doctor of Divinity, underscoring his influence in the field of comparative religion.
