This book is inspiring to all ages and very beneficial to young
adults and teenagers, who will learn and educate themselves towards
situations and conditions we all face from day to day, and boldly
be able to deal with them, solve some of them and sidestep most of
them and be on the right roads to success or improvement, with
respect for others and receive respect from others. There are
things which we know and have to do and yet we fumble with how, and
what to get them done, because we think that we can do it without
using instructions, or forget by not using the guidelines. So we
need the reminder to remember not to forget to "Place Yourself" at
the top, the middle, or the bottom but don't stay there.VICKLYN

J. C. Ryle's classic guide for Christians, wherein he outlines the
principles of sin, sanctification, spiritual growth and the
importance of Christ is published here complete. The spiritual
excellence displayed in J. C. Ryle's writings cannot be
underestimated: a lengthy introduction tells us the seven
aspirations which Ryle holds when teaching his fellow Christian.
Delving into great detail to explain each aim, and supporting his
statements by citing scripture, the author displays an impressive
devotion both to the Lord and to all believers who choose to read
his words. Moses is identified as being foremost among God's
saints, standing among the best examples of men ever lived. His
surrender of a high ranked position, his abstentious attitude to
worldly pleasures and wealth, and his opting for an ascetic life
full of hardships and pain in service of the Lord are mentioned.
Moses' followers were despised by others, yet he took up and
ultimately proved their cause.
This book examines the relationship between race, religion, and
economics within the black church. The book features unheard voices
of individuals experiencing economic deprivation and the faith
communities who serve as their refuge. Thus, this project examines
the economic ethics of black churches in the rural South whose
congregants and broader communities have long struggled amidst
persistent poverty. Through a case study of communities in
Alabama's Black Belt, this book argues that if the economic ethic
of the Black Church remains accommodationist, it will continue to
become increasingly irrelevant to communities that experience
persistent poverty. Despite its historic role in combatting racial
oppression and social injustice, the Church has also perpetuated
ideologies that uncritically justify unjust social structures.
Wilson shows how the Church can shift the conversation and reality
of poverty by moving from a legacy of accommodationism and toward a
legacy of empowering liberating economic ethics.

In this new book on the rise of commercial black 'mega churches,'
Mary Hinton examines the rich legacy of the historic black church
from the dual perspectives of theology and religious education. She
explores the new religious models emerging from the tradition of
the historic black church and questions whether they are continuing
to operate and practice according to the wisdom of this unique form
of American religion. Two mega church ministries, those of T. D.
Jakes and Creflo Dollar, are examined in detail with regards to how
they align with black church religious history. Hinton concludes by
proposing that the fastest growing religious phenomenon within and
outside of the black community in the United States-the mega
church-should no longer be analyzed based on size alone. Instead,
Hinton urges readers to consider the ecclesiastical structures of
churches in making appropriate assessments in determining should
and should not be classified as a commercial church.
