Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A young man in despair cries out: "Why can't I be gay and still be loved by God?" and God replies: "Yes you can! Yes you are!" Once in a generation there comes a story so rare and beautiful that it changes peoples' lives. the Voice of My Brother's Blood is such a story. David Shepherd is a picture of the perfect son--handsome young teacher in an evangelical Christian ministry. Once caught up in the hedonistic gay lifestyle in San Francisco, David is convinced he has been changed by the will of God. Summoned to counsel a student who refuses to accept traditional Bible teaching on homosexuality, David knew from the moment he looked into the compelling brown eyes of Mark Ward that this defiant young man with the face of an angel would challenge everything he thought he believed. Together David and Mark find themselves swept up in a struggle for justice, searching for the strength to stand against a Goliath of religious bigotry. Liberally referencing the Bible as a weapon for truth, the Voice of My Brother's Blood is a story of adoration and conviction that jerks the sanctimonious foundation out from under religious intolerance. _________________________________________ David Charles Craley is a writer, editor and, for more than four decades, a researcher and teacher of the Bible. the Voice of My Brother's Blood: A Love Story is his third book. the first was the Hope of Glory: In Search of the Light (1979), and the second: the Secret to Holy Spirit Authority: In the Power of the Spirit (2011).

But the Cell won’t be easily destroyed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My written words are my voice! Until I learned to cry out to God, it was me and the pen speaking on paper. I found countless journals filled with my thoughts and ideas; some written in shorthand and I could not decipher. I wrote down everything that I held inside until I was able to verbalize it. I encourage you to let God hear your voice.

Book Synopsis Blood Sugar and Brothers' Voices by : Ledric Sherman
Download or read book Blood Sugar and Brothers' Voices written by Ledric Sherman and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Self-care is the key to living a long and healthy life for people with diabetes. Yet numerous studies show that self-care is far from optimal. This has resulted in attempts to understand the progress underlying self-care behavior in the efforts of mediating more effectively. While there are an abundance of studies focusing on African-American women and diabetes management, there is a considerable gap in health education literature regarding the self-care management experiences of African-American men living with type 2 diabetes. The management and impact of type 2 diabetes on the sense of self, lifestyle, and significant others of the African-American man are not clearly comprehended. Therefore, the purpose of the study was to explore the knowledge, beliefs, and self-care management practices of African American men living with type 2 diabetes. This was an exploratory study utilizing qualitative methodology to understand the knowledge, beliefs, and existing self-care management practices of up to 50 African-American men, ages 18-70, living with type 2 diabetes. Participants had one-on-one semi structured interviews with the primary investigator. The instruments that were used consisted of two parts: one was a self-administered paper/pencil questionnaire to collect socio-demographic information. The second was a semi-structured interview. The study significance was to identify and understand the barriers to type 2 diabetes management and how they had an adverse influence on self-care. A combination of high barriers, poor daily self-care, management, and knowledge possibly put those with type 2 diabetes at an elevated risk for subordinate self-care management. Barriers had a role in reality and diabetes researchers and educators are charged with recognizing the complications of what individuals with type 2 diabetes need to do improve and enhance their health. The study findings revealed that the participants labored with managing their diabetes and some counted on their own potential or performance, as well as the encouragement of their family, extended family, neighbors, and friends. Also, many of the participants had a unified theme in that regarding self-care management, having type 2 diabetes affected those in their surrounding environment, not just the person living with the illness. In conclusion, the study findings suggest that future diabetes research and education among African-American men should give attention to male masculinity and the powerful influence it has on utilizing preventive health services. The limited amount of African-American men included in empirical type 2 diabetes research could help explain the under addressed barriers and complexities to positive self-care management.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lightnin couldnt deny he saw hisself as a politico, spent a good deal of his time fantasizin bout what life was like in Bling City; walkin the celebrated streets uptown there made legendary by great past fiery Black leaders, remindin Black peoples of hard won triumphs yes, but also of they stolen pasts; endangered futures, collective devisive vision, and a social consciousness made less urgent durin the Clinton years. He felt a tremendous mutual callin, a soberin comfortable chill. Wit one stunnin blow in the the election of Barack Obama, the once robust, but now pitifully feeble, challengin activist and nationalist element in the body of Black culture, was left on the world stage to sputter and disappear into itself like spit on a hot iron. Yet it seemed all things was politically possible now as he recalled where he was, hearin the impossibly true news that a Black man was now the President of the United States. Hed never forget it. The Presidents Club lounge on the south side of Promise, re-named in the aftermath of the election was an explodin mix of yelps, tears, laughter, hugs and prayers with people holdin on to strangers, friends, and family, and toastin the occasion wit heroic amounts of alcohol. Obama couldna won without the white votes and the accompanyin blocs that came wit them, but just as many white folks wasnt ready for a Black President. The trump was that the democratic process was ready, and in America sometimes processes triumph over peoples. Remarks floated through the air a plenty. Thank God! Thank you! Oh! Thank-you God. He fuck-ing did it!! God dammit he did it!! The get it done soul anthem; Aint No Stopping Us Now a mainstay in the pantheon of Black music was on auto-re-run on jukeboxes everywhere, pourin out of social clubs, homes and taverns too; but most certainly there at the Presidents Club. Look at him! Obamarama time! ..Huh? yelled out a tipsy male customer, his eyes fastened to the huge TV screen. Standin tall with his Black woman. Caint mistake that sistah, for nothin cept Black! And them two pretty kids! The brother tipped his kufi as people applauded his words, jubilance gleamin on every face in the place. Someone clinked a glass for quiet and actually got enough of it to be heard, My group is going across the street to the church to put a prayer in right now. Jesus needs immediate feedback on this. a young woman said as she slapped high fives with a contingent of ten others. And the comments continued. Now we gon git some government by the original kings. Look at Ope! Cryin n shit A young brother called out. She gon be the next Presidenther and HillHillll be the V.P. Hillll be the President if Bill got anything to do wit it. somebody countered. Yeah. Theyll let Ope be National Security Advisor, since Condileesi already broke that in for a sistah... Mufuckas laughed. Maybe they was right Lightnin thought. Maybe the time for his dreams was now. Wasnt a Black President in the United States the imprimatur of proof
Book Synopsis In A Younger Voice by : Cindy Dell Clark
Download or read book In A Younger Voice written by Cindy Dell Clark and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2011 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Adults were once children, yet a generational gap can present itself when grown-ups seek to know children's lives, in research. In A Younger Voice discloses how qualitative research, tailored to be child-centered, can shrink the gap of generational unintelligibility. The volume invites and instructs researchers who want to explore children's vantage points as social actors. Its suggested tool kit draws from both academic and applied research, based on the author's lifelong career as a child-centered qualitative researcher. World round, research in knowing children has grown recently in anthropology, sociology, geography, economics, cultural psychology and a host of applied fields. This book draws widely from the trending child-centered research movement, taking stock of methods for fulfilling its aims.In A Younger Voice provides mature researchers with a kid-savvy guide to learning effectively about, from, and with children. The highlighted methods' are steadfastly child-attuned, "thinking smaller" in order to free children to participate with empowerment. From fieldwork and observation, to focus groups and depth interviews, to the use of photography, artwork, and metaphors, viable methods are discussed with an old-hand's acumen for making the procedures practical with children in the field.Whether an investigator is at the beginning of a project (designing from scratch procedures to involve and reveal the young) or at the final stages (conducting interpretations and analysis true to children's meanings) In A Younger Voice gives know-how for a challenging area of inquiry. Playfully interviewing children as young as five years old, as well as empowering teenagers to tell it like it is, are tasks revealed to be both doable and essential. For adults seeking to overcome generational-cultural myopia, these methods are invaluable.

Book excerpt: From the very first moment that we gaze upon our own face in a mirror, we are mesmerized. At first we don't even recognize that the image peering back at us is our own. Eventually we come to realize that the person in the mirror is indeed one with us, a part of us, and from that moment on, everything changes. Our reflection becomes an integral part of our life. Without it, life as we know it would be almost impossible. It is here, in front of that mirror, that we finally see, that which is very important, who we really are. So imagine for a moment what would happen if one day our image had suddenly, tragically, disappeared. Identical twin brothers Marco and Luca Luna share everything. Growing up in a small town, they are an integral part of a loving family. They participate in sports, enjoy music, and are active in their local church. The brothers do everything together, perhaps because they are so much alike-and yet so different. Then one moment, and one event, changes everything-and nothing will ever be the same again.

Book excerpt: Sometimes healing from the past is possible when we find someone we want a future with. Maggie Monroe never imagined she would be breaking into her dead twin brother's apartment the first time she saw Paris. Desperate to feel safe after their tumultuous childhood, Maggie has built a quiet, staid life as a librarian, completely avoiding adventure or romantic entanglements. Keeping their family's dark past a secret wasn't hard when you didn't let anyone in. Sebastian had been all she had left. Finding the truth of his murder was the only thing that mattered to her. Tanner Stone is his family's dark secret. Though his diabolical biological father, Bruce Tanner, never claimed him, most of Stone's Canadian half-siblings have welcomed the family bastard with open arms. After more than a decade with Australia's Security Intelligence Service, Stone isn't quite sure jumping into the Tanner clan's orbit is such a good idea. He spent the first half of his life ignoring the fact the man he called dad wasn't his biological one, and the second half unraveling just how dangerous and deep Bruce Tanner's global crimes went. As Maggie and Stone's paths intertwine, they dance around their budding attraction as each must decide who to trust. When a dangerous force threatens the global power scale and their loved ones, Maggie and Stone cautiously team up. Will they be able to put their distrust aside long enough to avert a global disaster, or will old family feuds destroy all hope, and their chance at love?
