Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What do you do when you feel your prayers have not been answered? When, instead of the voice of God, you only hear silence? Where is God in the midst of the Christian's trials, tribulations and challenges? Author Precious Nwachukwu shares the lessons she learned about God and her walk with Him when she hit rock bottom. She wrote this as a result of her conversations with God while dealing with a condition of severe insomnia: 30 minutes of sleep each week for over 2 years. This book encourages every Christian who is in a rough place and ready to give up to pause and realize that God wants to promote you through your affliction. The book is especially for those who are close to giving up on life, the Christian walk, and God. It encourages the reader to examine his walk with Christ as a path towards seeking God earnestly. Delving deeper into the Christian walk, author Nwachukwu then addresses why relationships and marriages of Christians are causing brokenness and depression instead of encouragement. The prayers at the end of each chapter of the book help the reader accomplish an elevation from the valley of life to the mountaintop of life in the most practical way.

Download or read book Beneath the Mountain An Anti Prison Reader written by Mumia Abu-Jamal and published by City Lights Books. This book was released on 2024-07-16 with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Essential radical texts by enslaved, jailed, and imprisoned Americans, edited by renowned political prisoner Mumia Abu-Jamal and activist-scholar Jennifer Black. “Filled with insight and energy, this extraordinary book gifts us the opportunity to encounter people’s understanding of the fight for freedom from the inside out.”—Ruth Wilson Gilmore, author of Golden Gulag and Abolition Geography “Martin Luther King told us what he saw when he went to the mountaintop....But there’s also the foot of the mountain, and there are also the regions beneath the surface. I want to try to tell you a little something about those regions.”—Angela Y. Davis, author of Angela Davis: An Autobiography Beneath the Mountain is a reader’s guide for understanding the evolution of anti-prison tenets. This essential core of primary texts provides an arc of insurgent writings by dissidents and revolutionaries who experienced incarceration and state terror first-hand. With contributions from John Brown, Frederick Douglass, and Crazy Horse, to Assata Shakur, Malcolm X, and Leonard Peltier, it also includes a previously unpublished communiqué from Angela Davis, written from jail at the time when she was forging the anti-prison critique that has since inspired a national movement. Beneath the Mountain offers a record of the historic foundations for the contemporary abolition movement. What emerges from these texts is an emancipatory vision that inspires the work being done today, a vision centered on organizing and solidarity as an antidote to repression. An invaluable resource for readers on both sides of prison walls, this compendium of resistance and hard-won vision will be essential to all who seek to develop an abolitionist critique and to further an understanding of the nature of repression and liberation.

Download or read book Down from the Mountaintop written by Joshua Dolezal and published by University of Iowa Press. This book was released on 2014-03 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A lyrical coming-of-age memoir, Down from the Mountaintop chronicles a quest for belonging. Raised in northwestern Montana by Pentecostal homesteaders whose twenty-year experiment in subsistence living was closely tied to their faith, Joshua Doležal experienced a childhood marked equally by his parents’ quest for spiritual transcendence and the surrounding Rocky Mountain landscape. Unable to fully embrace the fundamentalism of his parents, he began to search for religious experience elsewhere: in baseball, books, and weightlifting, then later in migrations to Tennessee, Nebraska, and Uruguay. Yet even as he sought to understand his place in the world, he continued to yearn for his mountain home. For more than a decade, Doležal taught in the Midwest throughout the school year but returned to Montana and Idaho in the summers to work as a firefighter and wilderness ranger. He reveled in the life of the body and the purifying effects of isolation and nature, believing he had found transcendence. Yet his summers tied him even more to the mountain landscape, fueling his sense of exile on the plains. It took falling in love, marrying, and starting a family in Iowa to allow Doležal to fully examine his desire for a spiritual mountaintop from which to view the world. In doing so, he undergoes a fundamental redefinition of the nature of home and belonging. He learns to accept the plains on their own terms, moving from condemnation to acceptance and from isolation to community. Coming down from the mountaintop means opening himself to relationships, grounding himself as a husband, father, and gardener who learns that where things grow, the grower also takes root.
