"All will find here much reality, much wisdom, much encouragement,

This popular book from respected leader Charles H. Kraft shows
believers how to exercise the authority they have from God through
Jesus Christ. When Christians recognize and use the amazing gift of
spiritual authority, they position themselves to provide protection
and bring transformation, not only in their lives but in the lives
of family members, friends, even coworkers. Now fully revised and
updated.
Pentecostalism is currently the fastest-growing Christian movement,
with hundreds of millions of followers. This growth overwhelmingly
takes place outside of the West, and women make up 75 percent of
the membership. The contributors to Spirit on the Move examine
Pentecostalism's appeal to black women worldwide and the ways it
provides them with a source of community and access to power.
Exploring a range of topics, from Neo-Pentecostal churches in Ghana
that help women challenge gender norms to evangelical gospel
musicians in Brazil, the contributors show how Pentecostalism helps
black women draw attention to and seek remediation from the
violence and injustices brought on by civil war, capitalist
exploitation, racism, and the failures of the state. In fleshing
out the experiences, theologies, and innovations of black women
Pentecostals, the contributors show how Pentecostal belief and its
various practices reflect the movement's complexity, reach, and
adaptability to specific cultural and political formations.

Mormonism: A Guide for the Perplexed explains central facets of the
Mormon faith and way of life for those wishing to gain a clearer
understanding of this rapidly growing world religion. As The Church
of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints continues to grow in the
United States and especially in other countries (with a total
membership of over 15 million, more than 50% of which is outside
the US), and as theologians and church leaders wrestle with whether
Mormonism is in fact a valid expression of modern Christianity,
this distinctive religious tradition has become increasingly an
object of interest and inquiry. This book is the ideal companion to
the study of this perplexing and often misunderstood religion.
Covering historical aspects, this guide takes a careful look at the
whole of Mormonism, its tenets and practices, as well as providing
an insight into a Mormon life.
Joseph Smith translation of the bible. Over 3900 verses revised.
Examines Pentecostal conversion as a force of change, revealing new
insights into its dominant role in global Christianity today. There
has been an extraordinary growth in Pentecostalism in Africa, with
Brazilian Pentecostals establishing new transnational Christian
connections, initiating widespread changes not only in religious
practice but in society. This book describes its rise in Maputo,
capital of Mozambique, and the sometimes dramatic impact of
Pentecostalism on women. Here large numbers of urban women are
taking advantage of the opportunities Pentecostalism offers to
overcome restrictions at home, pioneer new life spaces and change
their lives through the power of the Holy Spirit. Yet, conversion
can also mean a violent rupturing with tradition, with family and
with social networks. As the pastors encourage women to cut their
ties with the past, including ancestral spirits, they come to see
their kin and husbands as imbued with evil powers, and many leave
their families. Conquering spheres that used to be forbidden to
them, they often live alone as unmarried women, sometimes earning
more than men of a similar age. They are also expected to donate
huge sums to the churches, often money that they can ill afford,
bringing new hardships. Linda van de Kamp is Assistant Professor in
the Department of Sociology, University of Amsterdam, The
Netherlands.
