Isaiah was Samuel's and Samuel was Isaiah's. That was the way it was since the beginning, and the way it was to be until the end. In the barn they tended to the animals, but also to each other, transforming the hollowed-out shed into a place of human refuge, a source of intimacy and hope in a world ruled by vicious masters. But when an older man—a fellow slave—seeks to gain favor by preaching the master's gospel on the plantation, the enslaved begin to turn on their own. Isaiah and Samuel's love, which was once so simple, is seen as sinful and a clear danger to the plantation's harmony. With a lyricism reminiscent of Toni Morrison, Robert Jones, Jr., fiercely summons the voices of slaver and enslaved alike, from Isaiah and Samuel to the calculating slave master to the long line of women that surround them, women who have carried the soul of the plantation on their shoulders. As tensions build and the weight of centuries—of ancestors and future generations to come—culminates in a climactic reckoning, The Prophets fearlessly reveals the pain and suffering of inheritance, but is also shot through with hope, beauty, and truth, portraying the enormous, heroic power of love.

Download or read book Studies in the Acts of the Apostles written by Rick Strelan and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2020-03-12 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of essays is indicative of the years of research that the author has devoted to the Acts of the Apostles. In a very easy style, some of the intriguing episodes in Acts are understood through the lens of ancient literature and the worldview that is reflected in it. The intention is to try and read them as an early Christian might have heard them even if, from a modern perspective, that reading appears quite strange. It is hoped that the modern reader might be intrigued and even inspired to read Acts again and so to explore its strange events and people even more deeply. More broadly, such an exploration might lead to an appreciation that all writings that many Christians now hold as “inspired and authoritative” are deeply embedded in an ancient cultural context.

Download or read book The Office of a Prophet written by Choice Nwachuku and published by Tate Publishing. This book was released on 2011-05 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are there still prophets in the church today? Too many people in the body of Christ assume the prophet is no longer a functioning member of the five-fold ministry simply because the office was vacant for about 400 years of biblical history. Those who recognize that Jesus ushered in a new era of prophets still do not understand the functionality of this office. The Office of a Prophet brings to light the responsibilities, gifts, and privileges bestowed on those who occupy this office. It details the assignments, obedience, strengths, and weaknesses of prophets in the Old and New Testament, as well as lays emphasis on pitfalls to be avoided by those called to this office. Whether you're called to The Office of a Prophet or just doubt the legitimacy of this office, Choice Nwachuku will enlighten you on importance of the prophet in the proper functioning of the five-fold ministry and the need for it in this dispensation of the end times.

Download or read book David Faith on the Run written by Larry Lichtenwalter and published by Review and Herald Pub Assoc. This book was released on 2004-02 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Like David. Outlaw. Cave man. Guerrilla. So how does the hero behave under pressure?The subject of this second volume on the life of David is his fugitive years, when his passion for God was stressed to the breaking point. He starts out holding Goliath's severed head and ends up weeping over the death of nemesis Saul and soul mate Jonathan. In between-he runs. At first the battlefield hero wins the hearts of the people and becomes a palace fixture. All is well in King Saul's court-until the women begin singing his praises. Now the rising star is a marked man with a price on his head. Dodging javelins, David succumbs to fear. He resorts to deception. Once he ran toward his enemies; now he runs from them. His only hope-his only help-is God. "The Lord is for me," he writes, "so I will not be afraid. What can mere mortals do to me?" (Ps. 118:6, NLT). This book is for all who walk through the valley of the shadow, who face the perfect storm of failure and disgrace. Before God can bring us into a spacious place, we must learn what David learned in the dark about God. God delivers. The storm will subside. Goliath will fall. But we must wait on the Lord.

Download or read book Running Being written by George Sheehan and published by Rodale Books. This book was released on 2014-04-01 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A New York Times bestseller for 14 weeks in 1978, Running & Being became known as the philosophical bible for runners around the world. More than thirty years after its initial publication, it remains every bit as relevant today. Written by the late, beloved Dr. George Sheehan, Running & Being tells of the author's midlife return to the world of exercise, play, and competition, in which he found "a world beyond sweat" that proved to be a source of great revelation and personal growth. But Running & Being focuses more on life than it does, specifically, on running. It provides an outline for a lifetime program of fitness and joy, showing how the body helps determine our mental and spiritual energies. Drawing from the words and actions of the great athletes and thinkers throughout history, Dr. Sheehan ties it all together with his own philosophy on the importance of fitness and sport, as well as his knowledge of training, injury prevention, and race competition. Above all, he describes what it means to experience the oneness of body and mind, of self and the universe. In this, he argues, we have the power to discover "the truth that makes men free."
