Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Know your value” and “Find your voice” are two popular motivational recommendations promoted by advocates who want to help aspiring men and women attain a more prominent, influential, and better compensated role in society. Whether in business, government, politics, education, health care or ministry, they are proven factors for achieving relevance and success. In Bruce Johnson’s memoir, Voices from Pulpit and Pew, the author celebrates how, over the thirty-seven years of his pastorate in Coventry, Connecticut, the laity have known their value and discovered and used their voices to define and operationalize a theology that effectively communicated the essence of their faith and ministry. Implicit in their daily religious narratives are discernible truths that inspire and sustain us. His voices from both pulpit and pew tell stories and impart insights that lift the soul.

Download or read book ReMission written by Gary Comer and published by Whitaker House. This book was released on 2018-01-09 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A systemic disease is lurking inside the church that is derailing it from what God intended it to be, to know, and to do. That disease manifests in practical ignorance and isolation. If the church is to be healthy and thriving, its members must gain the needed know-how and skill sets to meaningfully engage with their increasingly difficult-to-reach unsaved neighbors, communities, and cultures in productive conversations about the good news of Jesus Christ. In other words, there must be a re-missioning of the body of Christ. ReMission practically equips leaders with tried-and-tested solutions that can outwardly mobilize a congregation, small group, or nonprofit ministry, and substantially increase the spiritual vitality of the body of Christ, both locally and globally. .

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stories from the Pews, G. Modele Dale Clarkes second book of short stories, is a collection of narratives about peculiar people and traditions in the black church. While not focused on any particular denomination, they represent a composite of church folk who make church membership and attendance such a fascinating experience. Because the black church embraces a complex diversity of cultures, social values, and spiritual manifestations, its impossible to stereotype black church folk. Consequently, these stories draw from the conflicts of church membership status, the power of entrenched family hierarchies, and the supremacy of embedded church traditions.

Book Synopsis Shattered Crimson by : Dionne Gideon
Download or read book Shattered Crimson written by Dionne Gideon and published by Dorrance Publishing. This book was released on 2013 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As blood leaves the body, so does life. So how could a mother witness a blood trail form her son and not realize he¿s dying. Simone Phillips, a single young mother, carries an emotional hole in her heart from her childhood. Yet she has managed to conceal the pain with a successful career. Not willing to deal with her broken spirit, she uses promiscuity as an escape. In turn, she becomes narcissistic and inattentive to CJ, her son. CJ¿s pain from his mother¿s neglect is revealed in an astounding way. Witnessed only by Simone, the tear stains that CJ leaves behind manifest as blood stains. But Simone is too self-absorbed to follow this extraordinary blood trail. And it¿s not until CJ ends up on his deathbed that she realizes the critical impact her negligence has had on him. Through rebuke from family and friends, her failed efforts of emotional manipulation, and divine intervention, Simone is forced to face her demon -- the imbedded pain she carries from her father¿s rejection. Having come to a point of breakthrough and deliverance from this internal hell, she is finally able to make the only decision that can save her son¿s life. Shattered Crimson is a powerful, spiritually and emotionally charged family drama. The tears and blood in this story draw a profound parallel to sin and death. The tears evidence the hurt from sin. But the blood reveals how that hurt, if ignored, can lead to a spiritual, emotional, and ultimate physical death.

Their first of many betrayals came when their home church pastor sent the young family off to Bible school with promises and lies. You will read of their struggles to keep shelter over their heads and food on their table. And how, by modern-day miracles, the Lord provided their daily needs day by day. The sins of the author are not hidden from the reader. As the miracles are provided and victories, the preacher turns back to his old life. He takes you with him into the darkness of wasted years. You watch his fall and the depth of it. You cheer and laugh at the way the Lord brings him to repentance and back into the holy calling of the Lord. When the Shipmans invited a stranded twenty-year-old woman with a nine-month-old baby into their home, their lives changed forever. Within these pages, you will find the gripping account of this family's unselfish rescues of homeless women and their children. You also read of the wolves in sheep's clothing and their opposition and their determination to fight against this preacher tooth and nail!

You will see how the betrayal, deceptions, and revenge try to destroy the family and the mission it represents. You will read how one of America's first and most powerful megachurch became involved with disbelief. You will wonder at the rich and powerful foundations, two of Chattanooga's chief of police, and prominent civic leaders, and for good measure, an assortment of mentally ill come together in a garbled maze with the motive of bringing about the downfall of one preacher!

You’ll be equipped and encouraged to reach out to the people around you effectively--and help them discover a new way to live eternally.
Book Synopsis Crossing the Water and Keeping the Faith by : Terry Rey
Download or read book Crossing the Water and Keeping the Faith written by Terry Rey and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2013-08-19 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beginning in the late 1970s and early 1980s, significant numbers of Haitian immigrants began to arrive and settle in Miami. Overcoming some of the most foreboding obstacles ever to face immigrants in America, they, their children, and now their grandchildren, as well as more recently arriving immigrants from Haiti, have diversified socioeconomically. Together, they have made South Florida home to the largest population of native-born Haitians and diasporic Haitians outside of the Caribbean and one of the most significant Caribbean immigrant communities in the world. Religion has played a central role in making all of this happen. Crossing the Water and Keeping the Faith is a historical and ethnographic study of Haitian religion in immigrant communities, based on fieldwork in both Miami and Haiti, as well as extensive archival research. Where many studies of Haitian religion limit themselves to one faith, Rey and Stepick explore Catholicism, Protestantism, and Vodou in conversation with one another, suggesting that despite the differences between these practices, the three faiths ultimately create a sense of unity, fulfillment, and self-worth in Haitian communities. This meticulously researched and vibrantly written book contributes to the growing body of literature on religion among new immigrants, as well as providing a rich exploration of Haitian faith communities.
