An unforgettable journey through racism and faith across the generations. January 15, 1959—a day that changed one family forever. White supremacists kidnapped and severely beat rural Alabama preacher Israel Page, nearly killing him because he had sued a White sheriff's deputy for injuries suffered in a car crash. After "they" "got Daddy," Israel Page's children began leaving the Jim Crow South, the event leaving an indelible mark on the family and its future. Decades later, the events of that day fueled journalist Sharon Tubbs's epic quest to learn who had "gotten" her mother's daddy and why. They Got Daddy follows Tubbs on her moving journey from Fort Wayne, Indiana, to the back roads and rural churches of Alabama. A powerful revelation of the sustaining and redemptive power of faith and unflinching testimony to the deeply embedded effects of racism across the generations, it demonstrates how the search for the truth can offer a chance at true healing.

Описание: Women preachers are everywhere. The pulpit, once a bastion of male presence and power, has become, in many denominations, a place where women regularly exercise their gifts, leading congregations and proclaiming God's word each week. The number of women scholars who are publishing and teaching in the field of preaching has also expanded dramatically.
Leonora Tubbs Tisdale explores how the presence of women preachers and scholars of preaching has transformed the practice of homiletics this country--from the reclamation of women's "herstory" in preaching, to the topics addressed in preaching and scholarship, to the way in which Biblical hermeneutics and theologizing are undertaken in preaching, to the imagery, illustrations, shape and embodiment of the sermons themselves. How Women Transform Preaching begins with a fascinating survey, including statistical information and historical analysis. Interviewing 16 women preachers/homileticians, Tisdale shares 'untold stories' of women preachers throughout history who are largely unknown but who serve as examples of both the struggle and power of women's preaching. She then tells the stories of contemporary women preachers. Throughout, Tisdale draws practical lessons for the reader, showing what students, homileticians, and preachers can learn from extraordinary women preachers.

Описание:
Joseph Caine has lived a hard, fast paced life of drugs, gangs, and prison. After nearly twelve years in that awful place, he truly believes he is a changed man and that he'll never go back. However, after less than a year on parole, he relapses and finds himself on the bathroom floor of a drug infested slum crying out to Jesus.
All those years in prison he spent wishing he could make things right, wishing he could help all those people he'd hurt, but now he can feel the old man rising back up from deep within and that's the one thing he fears most.
It's now a battle for his life to break a curse on his family that extends nearly all the way back to the Garden of Eden.
In this life-changing story, he deals with how to make up for his tawdry past, how to love himself, and how to accept God's free gift of grace and forgiveness before it's too late and his soul is lost forever
Helped by his blind, handicapped sister who senses auras and speaks to angels, he fights demons from Hell and even Satan himself in this epic battle to become a godly man and save his whole family.
About the Author
J. Tubbs grew up in Odessa, Texas and spent most of his younger years in prison. After a lifetime of drugs and trouble to cover up the pain of being molested for years as a child, he had a life changing encounter with Jesus. Now he owns a small business, has an associate's degree in psychology, and looks forward to becoming a licensed drug counselor soon so he can help others who have gone through the same things as he has.
When this book was penned, Tubbs found himself in a level IV maximum security prison locked in a tiny 10x12 cell. Then he felt that the Holy Spirit moved upon him and helped him to write this story. For nearly twelve hours a day for forty days, he toiled until it had all poured out.
J. Tubbs hopes that you can find encouragement and strength from this novel, and more importantly, that even the worst of men can change.

Описание:
Man considers himself to be the dominant species on planet Earth. He shouldn't be. In the Darwinian sense, humans are ill suited for life on this world. As creatures, man is not overly large, strong, fast, or well insulated from environmental changes in weather changes. A Sasquatch, or Bigfoot as they are commonly referred to, is. They are said to have size, strength, speed and agility as well as a nice fur coat. They would be, if they existed, the top of the food chain. Ah, you say, but humans have intelligence, we are conscious of ourselves and everything else. Just how intelligent are we?
What if, in the distant past Sasquatch was the dominant species, and developed intelligence? What if their intelligence led to technology? What if they had fifty million years to develop it, maybe two hundred million years, maybe longer?
There are theories that we humans were placed on this planet to do some sort of penance. After observing how the human race behaves, maybe we were. Perhaps you may be interested in taking a run Down Tubbs Lane and finding out.

Описание: MATLAB is a popular program. A MATLAB website states "Over 1,000,000 engineers and scientists....use MATLAB and Simulink." Monster.com has hundreds of advertisements for jobs requiring MATLAB. The first purpose of this book is to quickly teach an electrical engineer or technologist how to use MATLAB. The reader learns by example. Complete keystroke-to-keystroke details are provided for problem solution and documentation. Most of this book's examples demonstrate MATLAB's abilities as a stand-alone programming language for performing numeric electrical computations. Also, two MathWorks add-on programs are demonstrated, the Optimization Toolbox and Simulink. The second purpose of this book is to demonstrate MATLAB solutions of practical electrical problems. The simplest and most basic uses of MATLAB are in the first examples. Later examples demonstrate more complex capabilities. The reader could use the examples' solutions as starting models for his own programs. It is assumed that the reader has an analytical electrical background of the sort that would be gained in a university electrical engineering or electrical engineering technology program. MATLAB is available in a free 30 day Demonstration version. Its key features can be learned in 30 days.

Описание: The object of this book is to teach the beginner the basics of three popular power system analysis programs. These programs are designed to simulate and analyze electrical power generation and distribution systems in normal operation and in short-circuit. The programs also have many add-on options like protection selection, arc flash analysis, transmission line sag & tension, raceway calculations, transient motor starting, etc. The programs have Demo (demonstration or trial) versions to allow people to tryout and learn about them. This book provides the engineer and technologist with information needed to use the Demo versions of SKM, ETAP, and EDSA for load flow and short-circuit analysis. The beginner learns how to use them on a small, but realistic, three-phase power system. The information gained is similar to that which students pay for in company-taught "Introduction to ..." courses. However, with this book, the student avoids paying tuition, learns at times of his own convenience, and can compare the different programs. In this book, load flow (power-flow) and short-circuit analyses are done on a small steady-state three-phase power system with manual methods. Then, each program is used to carry out the same analyses. Since in practice, three-phase systems are the most often analyzed, only three-phase systems will be considered in this book. The DC and single-phase capabilities of the programs will not be considered. The person using this book should already have an analytical electrical background. Academically, he should be educated to at least the level of a university two-year electrical engineering technology program.

Описание: "
"How do we preach in a way that affirms Christian theology while also honoring the insights of other faith traditions?" "How do we preach about and help create genuine Christian community in a social networking culture?" "Questions Preachers Ask" examines many questions that are on the minds of preachers today, questions that focus on how to preach the gospel in a culture where biblical knowledge cannot be presumed and where the Bible is often viewed as untrustworthy. Well-known preachers, scholars, and authors, including Barbara Brown Taylor, Gail O'Day, Anna Carter Florence, Richard Lischer, Cleo LaRue, and Thomas Lynch, provide the answers.
This book, compiled to honor writer, preacher, teacher, and scholar Thomas G. Long at the end of his teaching career, addresses practical questions such as "How do we proclaim the good news to young adults who are on the margins of church or have left it?" and "How do we preach to faith communities that are highly diverse?" Perfect for preachers at any stage of their ministry, these essays offer hope and guidance for handling the difficult task of preaching in today's congregations. "
