By providing both theoretical and practical primary research data, this book gives a spiritual and theological voice to the religious experiences of persons whom many Christians ostracize as persons outside of God's blessings and salvation. This study provides that voice by listening respectfully to some LGBT Christians' stories of their spiritual experiences and allowing those narratives of their experiences of God in their lives to be heard, while letting them speak for themselves, alongside the theoretical-historical information. Through their experiences of God working in different ways in their lives, all four research participants were able to reconcile and integrate their faith with their sexual orientation, and to arrive at the point of believing that holiness or salvation and homosexuality are not mutually exclusive. This book treats the narratives of these same-sex oriented Christians as spiritually revelatory and thus a contemporary medium of God's revelation in our post-modern era. It can therefore help us all, homosexual and heterosexual Christians alike, including those who are struggling to reconcile their faith and their sexual orientation, to see that holiness or salvation and homosexuality are not necessarily mutually exclusive. This book is a sequel to my earlier book, Blessing Same-Sex Unions: Theological Reflections (2005).

Christians' Lies investigates and resolves specific false doctrines that are shared by Christians. Among these lies, we will investigate false Sabbaths, false beliefs about death, false ideas about the manner of Jesus' return to Earth, wrong suppositions about the debates on Creationism and evolution, the "gift" of tongues misinterpretations, what Jesus is doing in heaven, and where we are all going. As interesting doctrines have sprouted from misconceptions and misinterpretations, it is Christians' Lies' goal to offer simple but powerful solutions to correct our lies by replacing our lies with God's truth. You will be blessed with understanding.

Those who adhere to a faith tradition are longing for theories and insights into how they can be true to their faith within the workplace and yet be sensitive and respectful to others of varying faith commitments and beliefs. Yet for Christians, respect of other faith traditions is especially difficult since Christianity as the dominate religion has become secularized and institutionalized within the workplace as represented in holidays and days off. Within the multiple theoretical and research dimensions of management, religion and spirituality, this book explores theoretical, conceptual and strategic theories and research which consider how individuals and organizations integrate their Christian faith in the workplace, and how these groups attempt to change society as a whole. This historical movement is characterized by a desire for people to live a holistic life which integrates their Christian faith into the workplace, also deemed "faith at work". Historically, Christian's faith integration is manifested individually or collectively and is demonstrated in the ways it shapes and informs the values systems, ethics, character and attitudes towards work. This edited volume draws themes out of the three historical epochs of the faith and work movement traced by Miller (2007) in the book, God at work: The history and promise of the faith at work movement. These organizing themes, while not congruent to the historical epochs, do capture the ways in which people of faith have historically attempted to integrate their faith into the workplace. These themes include: Individual integration, organizational strategies for integration and societal integration.

God has blessed my life with so many miracles it is hard to recall them all.

It is my hope that as you read this book you can relate to similar situations in your past and begin to see God at work in your life.

Who knows maybe you will begin to see and understand the miracles that He has done both large and small every day of your life.

This book tackles issues most people within the Christian community don't like to talk about-- the ungodly desires, habits, false security, or pleasures that have them in bondage. For the sake of "keeping it real" with the readers, I share my personal testimonies of past struggles ... making it easier to face up to anything that has you in bondage and press forward toward Christ. I pray that as many people as possible can be exposed to the gospel and walk in the freedom, victory and authority Christ bought for us. I am a living witness that doing so will help you stop living below your potential and trust Christ in every aspect of your life. If you are a big fan of the truth, you will find hope and encouragement in the messages found between the pages of this book.

Advance praise for Special Intentions

"Special Intentions reminds us of the importance of not simply praying for what we need, but for what others need. Jesus taught us to ask God for our daily bread, but he also asked us to love one another. Commending our friends and families (and co-workers, neighbors, acquaintances and even those who bother us) to the care of God is a key aspect of that love, and an important element of the Christian tradition.

"Claire Coleman's sensitive new work will help readers to more fully enter into this rich stream of the spiritual life."

--James Martin S.J, author of My Life with the Saints

"If you've ever offered up a simple 'God help him' at the sight of someone less fortunate, then this book will resonate with your innate sense that prayers have power. Claire Coleman offers a graceful, easy way to benefit others with her beautifully written portraits of those in need. Take her advice, say a prayer for a stranger and make the world a better place."

--Patricia Sheridan, Assistant Editor/Features, Pittsburgh Post-Gazette

"While Special Intentions is a beautiful meditative book for the person alone in prayer before God, it likely also will be will be an inspiration for those in prayer groups, and friends who come together to talk about their life's journeys."

--Dianne M. Traflet, J.D., S.T.D., Associate Dean, Immaculate Conception Seminary School of Theology, Seton Hall University

"Prayer is a personal experience, but sometimes we need a little reminder. Claire Coleman's Special Intentions is the perfect book to keep close at hand and close to the heart to reference, to inspire, and to share with others."

--Amelia Grey, author of twenty-three books

" The] listings of special intentions are so global and yet personal, so ordinary and yet profound."

--Sr. Joan Noreen, OLME, co-founder and director of Our Lady's Missionaries of the Eucharist

Host, Eucharistic Journey, Eternal World Television, (EWT) Network

"Ms. Coleman reminds us that every one of us is, for very different reasons, in need of prayers.... Her ability to lead us to pray for someone we suddenly notice, think about, and then care about--someone who we don't even know -- is truly a gift.

--Dr. Sharon Latchaw Hirsh, president, Rosemont College, Rosemont, Pennsylvania

"Remembering to rely upon our Father--remembering to find answers and solace in the Word is something we instantaneously turn to when bombarded with hopeless situations. Wait...or do we? I don't always...incredibly I don't always. I get so focused on the problem I do need a reminder to remember to refocus on truth."Tablets are memories of God's faithfulness in my life. Memories of how He stretched down to reach me, teach me...rescue me. There are no deeply intellectual-spiritual concepts introduced...just reminders of how incredible is our God...truths from my yesterdays that I draw strength from today, building faith to walk out my tomorrows. If God does the incredible for one...He does for all. I firmly believe that I was chosen to share this simple...yet dynamic concept because I am in the worst of the worst to need it. This instruction fromGod was introduced early in the Old Testament when man began the grumbling that led to faithlessness. The growing madness in our world distracts, depresses, and dissuades remembering Whose we are. A revival of the use of a reminder to remember is imperative within the body of Christ today
