Download or read book Gangster Prayer written by Autumn Miles and published by Hachette UK. This book was released on 2019-07-16 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Change your life and become an inspiring, passionate praying warrior who proclaims God's Word with this refreshingly honest guide to strengthening your faith. If you want positive results from prayer, you first need to pray! But so many people who say they believe in the power of prayer actually pray very little . . . or not at all. It's time to get serious about prayer. Autumn Miles says that we must stop being prayer wimps and instead be transformed into "prayer gangsters"--people who are passionate about their faith and loyalty to God. Autumn believes that God wants to give us so much more than what we've been settling for. It's time our prayer life, which has been mediocre at best, becomes something that is: Fervent, intentional, and highly expectant. Gangster Prayer won't teach you how to pray. Instead, it will help reveal the heart behind a believing prayer and put the focus back on who we are praying to instead of on what we are praying for. With a changed perspective and objective, we can finally see the results from prayer we've been longing for--not just answers but a changed life.

Diamonds for Christ will show you how God can turn each disappointment, struggle, fear, obstacle, and pain you've experienced to help you overcome life's challenges to fill you with hope and expectancy. Just like diamonds, which are formed through the process of pressure and heat to produce something beautiful, God will heal and restore every broken area of your life. God healed me from the pain of divorce, abortion, single parenting, loneliness, hopelessness, and living a life to please people; he will do the same for you. He allowed me to see that his love and grace are much greater than my sin and failures. Through Jesus Christ and his finished work on the cross, I've been restored and have a new outlook on life. A life with a sense of purpose, meaning, and hope, knowing that through Christ, all things are possible. There is also a fulfilling and happy life awaiting you. It's time to stop living confined by your past and look to the beauty of your future because God has an awesome plan and purpose for you!

All are welcome, and all are accepted. Welcome to Jesus University. What you waiting for? Dig in. Its plenty! Blessings and prosperity toward you. Alicia Crandell

Download or read book Holy Hip Hop in the City of Angels written by Christina Zanfagna and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2017-08-29 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A free ebook version of this title is available through Luminos, University of California Press’s Open Access publishing program for monographs. Visit www.luminosoa.org to learn more. In the 1990s, Los Angeles was home to numerous radical social and environmental eruptions. In the face of several major earthquakes and floods, riots and economic insecurity, police brutality and mass incarceration, some young black Angelenos turned to holy hip hop—a movement merging Christianity and hip hop culture—to “save” themselves and the city. Converting street corners to open-air churches and gangsta rap beats into anthems of praise, holy hip hoppers used gospel rap to navigate complicated social and spiritual realities and to transform the Southland’s fractured terrains into musical Zions. Armed with beats, rhymes, and bibles, they journeyed through black Lutheran congregations, prison ministries, African churches, reggae dancehalls, hip hop clubs, Nation of Islam meetings, and Black Lives Matter marches. Zanfagna’s fascinating ethnography provides a contemporary and unique view of black LA, offering a much-needed perspective on how music and religion intertwine in people's everyday experiences.
