Joseph Murphy & Mitch Horowitz 
The Wisdom of Joseph Murphy 

You Are As Your Mind Is



Like few other voices of the past century, minister and New Thought pioneer Joseph Murphy gave us an entirely new sense of human potential and power. The secret of creation, Murphy taught, is within your own thoughts.



Now, popular spiritual voice and PEN Award-winning historian Mitch Horowitz collects some of Murphy’s most powerful and least-known writings into this dynamic collection.



Mitch’s historical introduction and commentary highlight Murphy’s ideas in a way that provides the perfect introduction for newcomers and a fresh window on the teacher’s thought for longtime readers.



Mitch’s timeline at the end of the book offers the first truly clarifying and reliable tracking of Murphy’s remarkable career.
The Wisdom of Joseph Murphy features:

• This Is It: The Art of Metaphysical Demonstration (1945)


• Fear Not (1946)


• The Meaning of Reincarnation (1954)


• Believe In Yourself (1955)


• Stay Young Forever (1958)


• Nuclear Religion (1961)


• Why Did This Happen to Me? (1962)
