Awaken from the dream of separation from God with this fifth book in the 'Kingdom series' by Brian Longhurst. Throughout this book, Brian shares his experiences of inspired guidance with Jesus and the Spirit of Truth to help us escape from spiritual darkness, guilt, fear and conflict, returning to the freedom of Love, peace and joy, far beyond this world's understanding. Sharing the Kingdom Within consolidates and affirms that to Awaken from the dream to complete, eternal bliss we must abandon all judgements and grievances and that this is achievable through true forgiveness. Brian explains: "We cannot do this alone, but by asking Jesus and being willing to follow his guidance, he will help us. This is enabled by changing the focus of our mind from the external world and attuning to the Kingdom of Heaven within. This will draw others who are ready so that we can share with them what we have learnt from Jesus. This sharing joins our minds, and together we begin Ascending the Hill of the Lord, accompanied every step of the way in precious fellowship with the living Jesus."

In this book the author argues for the continuing relevance of Karl Mannheim's sociology of knowledge. Maintaining that Mannheim's original development of the sociology of knowledge can be updated using contemporary material, he develops a framework for the analysis of knowledge and belief in contemporary society. The books contains an original interpretation of Mannheim, showing how he relates the production and utilization of beliefs to competitive struggle between social groups. Mannheim's views on relativism and the intellectuals are considered at length.
