How did a small-town girl from Texas grow up to travel to twenty-five nations by prayer and God's interventions? How did she have the courage, strength, and determination to risk everything, even her life, to carry Bibles and the salvation message to places even some men would not go?

Destiny Waited and Courage Roared tells how this gutsy woman's faith and bulldog tenacity faced life-threatening adventures as she smuggled Bibles into lands where God's Word is often forbidden. This is not the typical missionary or evangelistic book, for it contains common-sense, Biblical teachings and riveting stories of narrow escapes and emotional salvation experiences.

Dale Davis's extraordinary relationship with her Father God will inspire you to engage in your own journey with God, explore new cultures, and reach the world in obedience to His calling on your life. Her stories may cause you to cry and laugh, but they will certainly have you in awe at how God and Dale teamed together to conquer seemingly impossible situations.

Destiny Waited and Courage Roared uniquely reaches people of all ages with real stories that need no embellishment and that educate, evangelize, and entertain, which are key marks of Dale's ministry. Over her forty years of serving God, Dale has taught in Christian education, led youth and children's ministries, directed outreach and street ministries, performed and taught theatrical clowning, and attended Bible school in La Marque, Texas.

Dale is available for booking engagements including teaching seminars on evangelism, using drama to teach the Bible, presenting motivational messages, and speaking to women's groups about overcoming pain and sorrow. She also leads mission tours and looks forward to meeting you in person at one of her presentations.

" And the Shadows Wore Colors: Reflections of a Spiritualist" strives to explain the difficulties that the members of the Yorubal/Lucumi community - specifically African Americans - have experienced in incorporating the realm of spirit into its ceremonies and teaditions. Throughout her life, Candita C. Gual has encountered many puzzling and troublesome paths. She has been fortunate to have the guidance of experienced mediums with foundations rooted in truth and logic, assuring safe footing for her as she has traveled the road of the unseen and commandeered rituals and solutions for the problems at hand.

Yet she still has questions about what she has learned and what is to come in her continued search for knowledge. "And the Shadows Wore Colors" provides a record of her experiences and conversations that will reveal some answers for those who have questions. In this volume, she examines the stumbling blocks that hinder the spiritual evolution sought by so many people, to perhaps bring some direction and closure to them. She explains her perspective on some of the many facets of the world of spiritualism, divination, and initiation ceremonies based upon her thirty-four years of experience.

"And the Shadows Wore Colors" is a work in progress that will hopefully open the door to m any discussions and books on this topic.

"Who's that on the other side of that wall, Momma?" asked the young Negro girl. "White folks," came the simple reply. This sad refrain played throughout the Jim Crow South in waiting rooms and restaurants. Slavery and Jim Crow affected all that is America today. The plight of the African American people is echoed by other cultures around the world, indicating a oneness of thought and behavior which has brought people of all nations to the brink of a "Red Sea" waiting to cross over into a land flowing with milk and honey. Allow The Search for Kum Ba Ya to guide you through the tough times of African American history to show you how to cross over into the land of promise. The Search.will help you gather strength for the journey and character for the abundance. Kum Ba Ya is not just a song we sing. It is a place where the captive roams free, spirits soar, and the lion lies down with the lamb. This magnificent place can be found by every tribe, every nation, and every generation. Search and you will find it. PATRICIA KNOTT is a native of the South and is happy to call it home. She credits growing up in the cotton fields of Mississippi with convincing her of the importance of getting an education and working hard to achieve her goals in life. She now practices medicine in the state of Arkansas. Her faith in God has helped her to look upon her years through the latter times of Jim Crow, Civil Rights, and then Affirmative Action as preparatory for service in His kingdom, in whatever manner He chooses to use that experience. It has given her the liberty to write her first book for publication, The Search for Kum Ba Ya.

I have an outstanding God; I have a superb Lord; I have an all sufficient King who supplies my every need according to His riches and glory. He is the force that drives me; the power that moves me; the inspiration that motivates me; the strength that upholds me. His name is Jesus Christ; He is God manifested in the flesh. My name is Jim Griffith, and I am an apostolic Christian; born again; sanctified; water baptized; and Holy Ghost filled. Time would not suffice for me to describe my feelings of every Church, but I must say that I love this type: an Apostolic, United, Overcoming, Pentecostal, Holy Church. Currently I am employed by the U.S. military; the service I will not specify, but I will discuss the spiritual government of which I am enrolled. I am enrolled in the Army of the LORD; the Christian-hood of God. As we press forward into the pages of this book, I pray that your heart will be impressed by the Holy Spirit of God; that your soul will be uplifted into the heavens; that your spirit will be ushered into the living presence of God. Jesus Christ is our only hope, only life, and only salvation; may we understand His character, quality, and identity in order to become partakers of His Eternal Spirit & Eternal life. This book is formulated alphabetically in order to institute a new spiritual alphabet founded on diverse titles of Jesus Christ. There is so much we have not discovered about the Lord Jesus Christ, and it is my attempt to present Him to you in a new light and new way. Let's go forth & overcome Let God Arise Let His enemies be scattered This is who I am and what I desire
