Download or read book Through Our Eyes written by Gail Garfield and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 2010-03-11 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How have African American men interpreted and what meaning have they given to social conditions that position them as the primary perpetrators of violence? How has this shaped the ways they see themselves and engaged the world? Through Our Eyes provides a view of black men’s experiences that challenges scholars, policy makers, practitioners, advocates, and students to grapple with the reality of race, gender, and violence in America.This multi-level analysis explores the chronological life histories of eight black men from the aftermath of World War II through the Cold War and into today. Gail Garfield identifies the locations, impact, and implications of the physical, personal, and social violence that enters the lives of African American men. She addresses questions critical to understanding how race, gender, and violence are insinuated into black men’s everyday lives and how experiences are constructed, reconstructed, and interpreted. By appreciating the significance of how African American men live through what it means to be black and male in America, this book envisions the complicated dynamics that devalue their lives, those of their family, and society.

Book Synopsis Through the Eyes of Christmas by : Ron Davis
Download or read book Through the Eyes of Christmas written by Ron Davis and published by Elm Hill. This book was released on 2018-08-28 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Through the Eyes of Christmas: Keys to unlocking the spirit of Christmas in your heart by Ron Davis. How will you get into the Christmas spirit this year? Each December, most of us face that same question as we prepare to celebrate Christmas. Whether we will admit it to ourselves or not, we all yearn for true Christmas spirit in our hearts and homes each year. We want our Christmas to be one of peace on earth and goodwill towards men just as the angel announced to the shepherds. But after the shopping, wrapping, and relatives, often our Christmas experience is far from peaceful and there is little goodwill to go around. We pull out the same decorations, put up the same tree in the same corner, with the same wreath on the same front door. We do the same Christmas stuff in the same Christmas way as last year and wonder why we get the same result–no lasting Christmas joy. Is true Christmas spirit a myth? Or, have we become so preoccupied with the hustle and bustle of the season that we unwittingly buy the secularized version of Christmas? It is only then that we discover the substitute the retailers are selling has no real Christmas spirit. Our disappointment is that we do Christmas things but still fail to see Christmas spirit in our hearts. So how do you find Christmas spirit? What are the keys to unlocking Christmas spirit in our hearts? Pastors must ask those same questions as they prepare their Christmas sermons. Recent research tells us that 90% of Americans celebrate Christmas, but over half have forgotten why. A majority of Americans now celebrate Christmas as primarily a cultural holiday, rather than recognizing the real reason for the season. Less than half of the millennials surveyed said they were planning to attend religious services on Christmas. What are Pastors going to preach Christmas Sunday that is inspired and anointed? And after 2,000 years, what can they possibly say that is fresh, relevant, and will make a real difference in the lives of their parishioners? To avoid losing the real meaning of Christmas, Pastors need to remind their people of the true purpose the coming of Christmas has for our lives. They must rediscover the spirit of Christmas in their hearts. But how? Through the Eyes of Christmas reveals the keys to unlocking Christmas spirit in your heart. By looking deep into the lives of the first Christmas participants, the book refocuses our vision to see Christmas from a fresh perspective. What were Mary and Joseph focused on that first Christmas night? When we relive Christmas by looking through the eyes of Mary, Joseph, the shepherds, the wise men and all of the other well-known (and some not so well-known) characters of the Christmas story, we discover what they were focused on. We see the Biblical truths their stories reveal. That brings the true, lasting joy of Christmas spirit into our lives. When those truths are applied to your life, it will be said of you as it was of Charles Dicken’s Ebenezer Scrooge, “…he knew how to keep Christmas well, if any man alive possessed the knowledge.” Order Ron Davis’ compelling and well-written book Through the Eyes of Christmas now to make this Christmas your best Christmas ever!

Book excerpt: FINALLY THERE'S A BLUEPRINT AND BUILDING BLOCKS FOR BUILDING ROCK-SOLID FAITH FOR FAITH-SHAKING TIMES. AND TO THINK THEY'VE BEEN HIDING IN PLAIN SIGHT FOR 2,800 YEARS! Faith-shaking storms are upon us and no one is exempt! Jesus said: build your house on the sand and it will fall with a great crash; build it on the rock and it will not fall. If you want to know how to build a rock-solid faith that will withstand the mightiest of storms, Old Testament King Jehoshaphat has good news for you. In his often-overlooked prayer in 2 Chronicles 20, and the events preceding and following, you'll find Jehoshaphat's blueprint and all the building blocks that you've been looking for. And wait until you see what God does in response to deliver a jaw-dropping, eye-popping victory for his people! Thank you, Alan, for rescuing from obscurity and bringing to life one of the greatest prayers of faith in the Bible. Your book has arrived in the nick of time, for the rain is coming down, the streams are rising, and the winds are blowing and beating against the houses of the faithful.

He's been a warrior by day (attorney, political consultant, and government affairs professional) and a shepherd by night and on weekends (pastor). In each of these roles he's come alongside people experiencing faith-shaking storms; he's heard their doubts and fears, their cries for help. And he's been through a fair share of his own, including one faith-shaking storm that took him to death's front door and rang the doorbell.

Book excerpt: If you love steamy holiday enemies-to-lovers romcoms with grumpy book boyfriends (and adorable pets)...make sure you start reading Elodie Nowodazkij's small-town Christmas romantic comedy today. Stuck with Mr. Ex-Bodyguard on Christmas Eve? That wasn't on my wish list, Santa. But then again, neither was falling in love. Please tell me this is just a remake of Nightmare on Elm Street—the Christmas version. I'd sooner face Freddy Krueger with a Santa hat than deal with this. My phone is blowing up. I'm surely going to get fired. I might as well crawl under a Christmas tree and never come out. Maybe I should travel to the North Pole and ask Santa for help. I pull my oversized scarf tighter around my neck, eyeing the treacherous sidewalk beneath me. If I fall flat on my ass now, that would be the perfect cherry on top of... oh, crap. Three more messages. I must not think about the fact that the entire town must have read that letter... oh, and let's not forget my mother. Or Damian. No, no, no. Dear Santa, Why is it that every time I close my eyes, I'm haunted by the memory of his biceps flexing as if auditioning for a superhero movie? And don't get me started on his eyes - so blue, so treacherous, they should come with a rip current warning. And his voice? Deep. Smooth. Velvety. Especially when he confessed how much he wanted me. The funny thing is, I don’t even like him. And he doesn’t like me. Plus, he hates Christmas. Who hates Christmas? Why are my thoughts more tangled than last year's Christmas lights? And why am I craving another round with Mr. Ex-Bodyguard? My vibrator just doesn’t compare to... him. With love, An overly caffeinated, slightly embarrassed columnist.
