About this audiobook
Turn Within is a compact exposition of affirmative prayer and spiritual introspection, urging readers to seek the "kingdom of God" as an interior reality rather than an external reward. Written in the lucid, hortatory style characteristic of New Thought devotional prose, it blends biblical interpretation, metaphysical psychology, and practical counsel. Its literary context is the late-nineteenth- and early-twentieth-century movement that recast Christianity through healing, mind, and the disciplined use of spiritual consciousness. Charles Fillmore (1854–1948), co-founder with Myrtle Fillmore of the Unity movement, wrote from a life shaped by illness, recovery, religious experiment, and an abiding confidence in the creative power of words. His study of scripture, philosophy, and alternative healing informed his conviction that divine life is immediately accessible within the individual. Turn Within reflects both his pastoral purpose and his systematic metaphysical reading of Christian doctrine. This book is recommended to readers interested in New Thought, practical mysticism, or the history of modern American spirituality. Though brief, it rewards slow reading, offering a disciplined vocabulary for prayer, self-examination, and inward renewal.
