Over the years I have collected and accumulated a number of, what I
call: "Bits and Pieces of Kingdom Wisdom and Revelations." This
book contains some of my favorite, power pack, key words of wisdom
and revelations. As you read you will understand my reason for
using this title. The little bits and pieces in this book will,
either, add too, or change your concept about certain views in
Christendom and kingdom insight. The title of this book is not
mentioned throughout the book; in reading you will, also,
understand why. For instance, this book is not written with much
detail, or with exhaustive information about any particular
subject. Most of my views are short with a proverbial fl avor; this
means, that sometimes it may seem as if you are actually, reading
proverbs. Some of these sayings might be viewed as, idioms, motto
and some, as I said, have the fl avor of a proverb, which from a
kingdom perspective, I believe, fit the messages in this book
perfectly. Most of these proverbial sayings were conceived in my
spirit and were birthed by the Holy Spirit, often times, when I was
in prayer. Many years have passed since I started recording these
sayings. I believe this book of Spirit filled wisdom should've been
blessing people everywhere long ago. My greatest desire for this
book is that every reader will discover a greater passion for
purpose, and a greater desire to grow in kingdom revelation, which
will be beneficial for kingdom living. This book contains a wealth
of, what I believe to be: wise spiritual snacks, lunch and
occasionally, readers might discover a full meal to dine on, which
is-without a doubt-good for the spirit, soul and body.
A Festschrift in honour of Don Carson's 70th birthday. One of Don's
greatest gifts has been his focus on mission. This collection
edited by Richard Cunningham features some of the top theologians
writing at their best about mission and the challenges facing the
church.
School Education, the third volume of Charlotte Mason's
Homeschooling Series, consists of thoughts about the teaching and
curriculum of children aged 9-12, either at school or at home. She
suggests that parents should practice what she calls "masterly
inactivity"-not neglectful or permissive parenting, but simply
allowing children to work things out for themselves, do things for
themselves, learn from their own mistakes, and to have time for
free play, and space for spontaneity. Charlotte Mason education
uses "living books" instead of dry textbooks; in this book, she
discusses what kinds of books to look for in each subject, and how
to use them to teach children to love knowledge and become real
readers and lifelong learners. Charlotte Mason was a late
nineteenth-century British educator whose ideas were far ahead of
her time. She believed that children are born persons worthy of
respect, rather than blank slates, and that it was better to feed
their growing minds with living literature and vital ideas and
knowledge, rather than dry facts and knowledge filtered and
pre-digested by the teacher. Her method of education, still used by
some private schools and many homeschooling families, is gentle and
flexible, especially with younger children, and includes first-hand
exposure to great and noble ideas through books in each school
subject, conveying wonder and arousing curiosity, and through
reflection upon great art, music, and poetry; nature observation as
the primary means of early science teaching; use of manipulatives
and real-life application to understand mathematical concepts and
learning to reason, rather than rote memorization and working
endless sums; and an emphasis on character and on cultivating and
maintaining good personal habits. Schooling is teacher-directed,
not child-led, but school time should be short enough to allow
students free time to play and to pursue their own worthy interests
such as handicrafts. Traditional Charlotte Mason schooling is
firmly based on Christianity, although the method is also used
successfully by secular families and families of other religions.

Bring the 'passion' narrative alive with 'Parish Passion Play',
which is suitable for production by anyone with little or no acting
experience. Ideally suited for use in a parish church, the play is
based upon the chronology presented by Professor Colin J. Humphreys
in his book 'The Mystery of the Last Supper'.
The essays gathered here provide a panoramic view of current
thinking on biblical texts that play important roles in
contemporary struggles for social justice - either as inspiration
or impediment. Here, from the hands of an ecumenical array of
leading biblical scholars, are fresh and compelling resources for
thinking biblically about what justice is and what it demands.
Individual essays treat key debates, themes, and texts, locating
each within its historical and cultural settings while also linking
them to the most pressing justice concerns of the twenty-first
century. The volume aims to challenge academic and ecclesiastical
complacency and highlight key avenues for future scholarship and
action.

parents. Topics include The Family; Parents as Rulers; Parents as
Inspirers; Parents as Schoolmasters; The Culture of Character;

characters to emulate); Parents' Concern to Give the Heroic
Impulse; Is It Possible?; Discipline; Sensations and Feelings
Educable by Parents; What is Truth? (Dealing with Lying); Show
Cause Why; A Scheme Of Educational Theory; A Catechism of
Educational Theory; Whence and Whither; The Great Recognition
Required of Parents; and The Eternal Child. Charlotte Mason was a

It has been recorded by some astute observer of life that "
Knowledge is power " If that is the truth, then ignorance is
impotence Nowhere is this reality of greater consequence than in
the arena of the classic battle between good and evil; right and
wrong; holiness and unholiness No one can live what one has never
known nor can one know what one has never heard. This book, "It's
all in the Knowing," puts to rest every excuse that the Child of
the King has for living beneath the privileges of the sons of God
Read this book Study this book Examine it with your Bible in your
hand and you will see that your prayer life will be revolutionized
You will rejoice because your expectations of God will be those
that will cause Him to smile at His sons who are living as His sons
If you allow this book to become a Knowing in your heart; a
Revelation in your spirit - you will walk as a son of God among men
"It's all in the Knowing " Bishop J. A. Tolbert 1st
I was born at Fort Benning in Columbus Georgia. I have three
children, Donnie, Missy, and Kellen . Six grandchildren, Bryttany
Jeremy, Keilah, Jacob, Jeremiah, and Shawn, and would like to
dedicate this book to them. Children are my passion. The Lord spoke
to me one day and said He would teach me to teach, and has been
faithful to His word. I have been a Sunday School teacher for many
years from babies to adults. The Lord also inspired me with
Christmas programs. I have had the privilege to minister to women
in prison. Looking forward to many more years in service to my Lord
and Saviour Jesus Christ... Gen. 1:31- And God saw everything that
he had made, and, behold it was very good. KJ
