The Gospel According to Sam: Animal Stories for the Soul is an edgy, honest, often hilarious exploration of spirituality in the everyday world inhabited by humans and their animal friends. The "Sam" in the title is Miller's Airedale, a lovable "wounded healer" of a dog who survived a house fire that burned off his ears but could not extinguish his spirit. (Currently available at www.amazon.com)
NET: How Real Churches Really Grow is a new book on creating vibrant, growing faith communities that can make a real difference in the world. Miller utilizes the metaphor of the ancient Hawaiian hukilau method of fishing, involving the whole community in catching fish. Miller shares his own experiences from four diverse congregations that grew significantly and became models for creative ministry. (Available 2012)
The Beer Dinker's Guide to God is a collection of stories that weave Celtic spiritual themes into everyday encounters with the Divine. Earthy, real and humorous, Miller takes the reader on a revealing journey toward a broader, deeper, more creation-centered appreciation of God's many and varied revelations. Embracing the whole of life and human experience, his storytelling reveals a God of surprises, in possession of a well-developed sense of humor. (Available 2012)
Awakening the Sleeping Giant: Discovering your Passion and Potential provides insights to help you discern your true self and offer your gifts to make a positive difference in the world. Unlike most books on human potential, Miller describes the paradox of "getting more" out of life by "giving more." The greatest blessing and joy life has to offer is in discerning how you can best bless the world! (Coming Soon)

Welcome


Welcome to my website! I am grateful for the opportunity to connect with you and reflect on those things that glorify our Creator and make all of us more fully alive. In my blog I’ll be sharing insights on spirituality, creativity, human potential, faith communities, animals, music and much more. I hope you’ll find something helpful in my books, blog or lectures. On the calendar page you’ll find my speaking schedule. I would love to meet you in person. Meanwhile, as we say here in Hawaii:

Keep surfing. Keep learning. Keep loving.

Much aloha,
