Story Behind the Book For nearly six years, Rich shared his thoughts about faith and life through his columns in Release magazine. When his first column was published in the spring of 1991, the editors introduced him this way: "Rich not only has a lot to say…he also has a unique way of saying it. And although Mr. Mullins could easily fit into that intellectual bohemian-type category (we’re sure he could hold his own in a discussion with any theologian or philosopher of old), most often, his message is a straightforward call back to the principles of faith. He’s a poet, a scholar, a gentleman, and yes, just a little bit off-center. But that’s why we like him, and are pleased to welcome Rich to Release with this regular column. We trust you’ll love him and what he has to say as much as we do…" Rich had a way with words, and a collection of his writings seems an appropriate tribute to a man who has been referred to as "the greatest songwriter of our time."

Download or read book Fighting in the Jim Crow Army written by Maggi M. Morehouse and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2006-12-28 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fighting in the Jim Crow Army is filled with first-hand accounts of everyday life in 1940s America. The soldiers of the 92nd and 93rd Infantry Divisions speak of segregation in the military and racial attitudes in army facilities stateside and abroad. The individual battles of black soldiers reveal a compelling tale of discrimination, triumph, resistance, and camaraderie. What emerges from the multitude of voices is a complex and powerful story of individuals who served their country and subsequently made demands to be recognized as full-fledged citizens. Morehouse, whose father served in the 93rd Infantry Division, has built a rich historical account around personal interviews and correspondence with soldiers, National Archive documents, and military archive materials. Augmented with historical and recent photographs, Fighting in the Jim Crow Army combines individual recollections with official histories to form a vivid picture of life in the segregated Army. In the historiography of World War II very little has emerged from the perspective of the black foot soldier. Morehouse allows the participants to tell the tale of the watershed event of their participation in World War II as well as the ongoing black freedom struggle.

Download or read book Remember Creation written by Scott Hoezee and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 1998 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why is it that many Christians find a theological-scientific debate about creation's ancient origins far more engaging than a speech about how to live responsibly in the creation today? Are we more fascinated by academic debates that focus our gaze on what happened long ago than by the hands-on discussions that focus our gaze on the world of wonders outside our windows right now? In Remember Creation, Scott Hoezee challenges readers to make today's world more central to the Christian faith by enjoying and preserving God's cosmos as a part of daily discipleship. Solidly grounded in a wealth of Scripture passages, this book reveals God's "ecology of praise," which all Christians should want to explore and preserve. Throughout the book Hoezee also offers suggestions to help congregations, families, and all Christians to take more delight in God's world while working to keep alive the wonders that bring God joy. "Scott Hoezee adds a refreshing new twist to the discussion on the environment: Shouldn't we start by simply enjoying creation and honoring it for what it is? With illustrations both biblical and personal, Hoezee makes a compelling case." - Philip Yancey

In Will the World Remember Your Name?, author Elmo Ebert offers a discussion of the evolutionary centered philosophy that encourages you to take a close look at your purpose and destiny to shift to a new dimension. He shares how you can transition to that new dimension in terms of consciousness, intelligence, and abilities, empowering you to transform the world into a better place, encourage its people to encompass real humanistic values, and live life with its true meaning and purpose. In this new dimension, you will: -mentally advance from five-sensory to multi-sensory individuals; -grow in mental-psychic clarity and make personal and business decisions based on intuition as well as rationality; -understand psychological growth as evolutionary and develop methods and institutions to not just cure emotional disease, but foster the growth of consciousness; -redefine and rewrite the principles of business management, embracing the vertical growth of consciousness as a strategic part of an innovative business mechanism powered to move business efficiencies and growth potentials to unimaginable heights; and -lead and guide the world and its people to live a more meaningful and purposeful life. Will the World Remember Your Name? takes you on a personal journey of self-reflection and self-assessment to make life changes that will add value to society and your life.
