Download or read book Coffee Will Make You Black written by April Sinclair and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2015-08-18 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A funny, fresh novel about growing up African-American in 1960s Chicago” by an author who “writes like Terry McMillan’s kid sister” (Entertainment Weekly). In this hilarious and insightful coming-of-age novel, author April Sinclair introduces the charming Jean “Stevie” Stevenson, a young woman raised on Chicago’s South Side during an era of irrevocable social upheaval. Curious and witty, bold but naïve, Stevie grows up debating the qualities of good hair and dark skin. As the years pass, her family and neighborhood are changed by the times, from the War on Poverty to race riots and the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr., from “Black Is Beautiful” to Black Power. Against this remarkable backdrop, Stevie makes the sometimes harrowing, often comic, always enthralling transformation into a young adult—socially aware, discovering her sexuality, and proud of her identity. “Whether she’s dealing with a subject as monumental as the civil rights movement or as intimate as Stevie’s first sexual encounters,” writes the Los Angeles Times, “Sinclair never fails to make you laugh and never sacrifices the narrative to make a point.” Winner of the Carl Sandburg Award from the Friends of the Chicago Public Library and named a best book of the year in young adult fiction by the American Library Association, Coffee Will Make You Black is an exquisite portrait of adolescence that will resonate with readers of all ages.

Jazz Ramsey has also signed up to give the girls a taste of her lifelong passion: cadaver dog training. Her adorable new puppy Wally hasn’t been certified yet, so she borrows the fully-trained Gus from a friend and hides a few bones in the unused fourth floor of the school for him to find. The girls are impressed when Gus easily finds the first bone, but then Gus heads confidently to a part of the floor where Jazz is sure no bones are hidden—at least not any that she’s put there. But Gus is a professional, and sure enough, behind a door that no one has opened in ages, is a human skeleton. Jazz recognizes the necklace the skeleton is wearing, and that it belonged to Bernadette Quinn, an ex-teacher at the school who’d quit her job abruptly one Christmas break. But now it seems Bernadette never left the school at all, and her hiding place makes it clear: this was murder. Bernadette in life had been a difficult personality, and so there are a plethora of suspects inside the school and out of it. As Jazz gets closer to the truth she can’t help but wonder if someone might be dogging her footsteps...

Download or read book The Path Breaking the Chains of Resentment The Power of Forgiveness in the Church written by Sharon L. Cooper-Jones and published by Sharon L. Cooper-Jones. This book was released on 2024-01-15 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Preface: Welcome to Chapter 1: "The Power of Forgiveness." Within these pages, we embark on a profound exploration into the dynamics of forgiveness and its transformative potential within the church community. This chapter serves as a gateway to understanding a critical aspect of spiritual growth and unity—the impact of resentment and the essential journey toward embracing forgiveness. Resentment, a formidable emotion, has the potential to cast shadows within the sacred walls of a church. Its insidious presence can sow divisions, impede spiritual development, and obstruct the very essence of forgiveness. As we delve into this sub-chapter, our focus is on comprehending "Understanding Resentment in the Church." By unraveling the layers of resentment and acknowledging its detrimental effects, we aim to pave the way for the restoration of love, compassion, and unity within the church. Resentment often arises from a myriad of sources—unmet expectations, perceived injustices, or unresolved conflicts. These emotions can be rooted in disagreements over leadership, differences in theological interpretations, or personal grievances among members. Left unaddressed, resentment becomes a corrosive force, eroding the foundations of trust and unity that are vital for a thriving church community. As we navigate the intricate web of resentment, we confront the consequences it imposes on the church. The erosion of trust, breakdown in communication, and the emergence of gossip create an environment that is antithetical to the teachings of grace, love, and forgiveness. In understanding the root causes and consequences of resentment, we lay the groundwork for breaking free from its chains and unlocking the true power of forgiveness. This chapter invites you to reflect on the transformative journey from resentment to forgiveness—a journey that holds the promise of renewed unity, spiritual growth, and a flourishing church community. May these pages serve as a guide on the path towards embracing forgiveness, unlocking the profound power it holds within the sacred spaces of the church.

Download or read book Generations of Faith written by Carl G. Eeman and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2002-07-01 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1991 a pair of Ivy League-educated Californians, William Strauss and Neil Howe, published a landmark book, Generations: The History of America's Future from 1584 to 2069. In Generations and subsequent books, they develop a theory that generational cycles repeat through American history at about 90- to 95-year intervals. In this book, Carl Eeman accepts the invitation of Strauss and Howe in Generations: "We encourage specialists among our readers, whatever their backgrounds, to shed more light on the component pieces of the generational puzzle" (p. 16). Eeman explores the cycle of four generational types from a faith perspective and applies generational ideas to the practice of ministry and to congregational issues. This book makes use of the young field of generational theory and provides a valuable tool for understanding between generations. As congregational leaders minister among the people of God, these concepts will help them be more effective leaders, clearer communicators, and more nimble troubleshooters and problem solvers. Foreword by William Strauss and Neil Howe.
