Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Trouble Don't Last Always is the story of an African American Viet Nam Veteran, now a permanent deacon in the Roman Catholic Church, and how through the grace of God and with the support of his family, friends, and church community, he survived the difficulties and hardships that life gave him and his family. This book tells how he weathered the storms and troubled times that war, poverty, sickness, racism, and the death of his father brought into his life. It is a timely story of hope and inspiration for everyone, but especially targets those who feel that they have nowhere to turn in times of trouble. His journey from Greeneville, Tennessee, to Cleveland, Ohio with a stopover in Vietnam is a story of how troubles and hard times can be diverted or changed when we take responsibility for our actions and let God into our lives. The Reverend Deacon Friend believes that the words of wisdom from his parents as well as his own sense of enlightenment upon his consecration in the Catholic Church are important words for readers to hear. The Reverend Deacon Friend is a Vietnam veteran who is in a master's degree program at Ursuline College, Pepper Pike, OH, and is a deacon at Holy Spirit Catholic Church in Cleveland, OH.

He was rejected by everyone, known by no one... Born to a teenage mother whose hopes and dreams for her son were shattered by her own drug addiction, author Shane Salter was thrust into parenting his younger brother at the tender age of four. His first look at the world was through a broken windowpane into an alley leading nowhere. When his mother walked out and left him, he kept it together and took care of his brother until they found foster care, a system as threatening to a child as any dark alley in New York, Miami, Chicago, Detroit, or Los Angeles. He sought what his mother was unable to give: nurturing, guidance, and the opportunity to be a child. With all odds against him, he survived and emerged more determined than ever to succeed.
Download or read book Trouble Don t Last Always written by Evelyn L. Parker and published by The Pilgrim Press. This book was released on 2003-04-02 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Racism will never end.” “Drug dealing and gang banging will never stop.” “I hope for God to come and take us away from all this because if things go on the way they are, there’s not much hope for humankind.” These are some of the comments from twenty African American teenagers coming of age in Chicago at the close of the 20th century. These comments raise challenging questions: - What expectations do African American youth hold concerning racial injustice? - What expectations do black youth hold about other issues that are important to them, such as violence? - How relevant is the black church to the issues that circumscribe the lives of urban black youth? - How is the black church instrumental in confronting racial injustice that black youth experience? - What signs of hope do black youth identify as being offered by the black church? - Can the church fashion black adolescent spirituality rooted in Christian hope and action? Parker seeks to answer these questions, critically examining African American adolescent spirituality and offering congregations a new theological framework for ministry with African American adolescents in the face of injustice and hopelessness. What results is the formation of a wholesome spirituality.

Download or read book Wasn t That a Mighty Day written by Luigi Monge and published by Univ. Press of Mississippi. This book was released on 2022-09-15 with total page 497 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wasn’t That a Mighty Day: African American Blues and Gospel Songs on Disaster takes a comprehensive look at sacred and secular disaster songs, shining a spotlight on their historical and cultural importance. Featuring newly transcribed lyrics, the book offers sustained attention to how both Black and white communities responded to many of the tragic events that occurred before the mid-1950s. Through detailed textual analysis, Luigi Monge explores songs on natural disasters (hurricanes, floods, tornadoes, and earthquakes); accidental disasters (sinkings, fires, train wrecks, explosions, and air disasters); and infestations, epidemics, and diseases (the boll weevil, the jake leg, and influenza). Analyzed songs cover some of the most well-known disasters of the time period from the sinking of the Titanic and the 1930 drought to the Hindenburg accident, and more. Thirty previously unreleased African American disaster songs appear in this volume for the first time, revealing their pertinence to the relevant disasters. By comparing the song lyrics to critical moments in history, Monge is able to explore how deeply and directly these catastrophes affected Black communities; how African Americans in general, and blues and gospel singers in particular, faced and reacted to disaster; whether these collective tragedies prompted different reactions among white people and, if so, why; and more broadly, how the role of memory in recounting and commenting on historical and cultural facts shaped African American society from 1879 to 1955.
Download or read book Won t He Do It God Can Do It Just Like That written by Ellis O. Henderson EdD MDiv and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2020-10-19 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is not for everyone. It is important that I say that because there is a notion that we are monolithic and everyone has to agree. This book is for those who know who HE is. I am watching Deon Cole who is an actor on the show Black’ish and a comedian. He was doing his stand up and he was joking about Black folk saying, “Won’t He do it!”. During the show he asked a white attendee who was “HE” and the boy didn’t know. Brilliantly, he explained to the white doy who “HE” he was and told him to reply appropriately. When Black people hear ``Won't He do it”, immediately they reply “YES HE WILL!”. Cole explained this to the white gentlemen, and spoke into the mic and said, “Won't HE do it?” and the white man replied “YES HE WILL!”. The audience laughed and applauded. Therefore, this book is for those who know who HE is. This book is for those who know how to reply, “YES HE WILL!”. More importantly, this book is for those who want to know who HE is and why is that. HE to many people is God. Not that God has to be a man or masuciline but God as the Ultimate authority. The authority in which Mom would say, “Wait until you Daddy gets home.” He is that authoritative figure that would make things wrong right. He is a Creator, and the God of the Universe and God of all Gods. Won’t HE do it is a phrase born out of the expericince of the African American Church. The African American Church is the parent of the current Church worship and style in America. Enslaved African created their own worship, culture, and fellowship that has stood the test of time.
