This book is a therapy for the local congregation to treat the root of the problem that has produced failure in evangelism. Too many Christians are only spectators; involvement of the people is the cure most churches need. The concept of Why Wait Till Sunday? calls for a cross section of people from the church to sit together in action groups to look at every important phase of the church's ministry. With the Bible in one hand and their church records in the other, they face the reality of where their congregation really stands. Guided by the Spirit, corrections are made, innovative plans are born, and creative ideas are fitted exactly to the church's need and combined to produce a realistic plan of action for that congregation.

In this revised 2nd edition of Fighting the Amalekites*, Dr. Hollis Green has added the subtitle, A Guide to Spiritual Warfare. "Believers must submit to a spirit baptism of fire to engage in spiritual warfare. Organized religion will never prevail over the basic evil that plagues the world. Spiritual warfare is normally an offensive waged by individual believers. It is guerilla warfare behind the lines with individual believers fighting as lone snipers zeroing in on their current evil practices that become besetting sins. These personal battles are not limited to the young, the struggle is a lifestyle offensive. Where organized groups choose not to function, personal action is required to make a real difference and break down the barriers to spiritual progress. There are no surrogate warriors, each individual must fight their own personal battles in order to grow in grace and spiritual knowledge. Surely, there are processes and practices that groups may perform that can assist individuals to combat evil forces; however, each person must fight their own spiritual battles."

The New Testament is a document designed to guide believers in their relationship with God and their behavior toward others. This completed edition of the New Testament is the result of 42 years of labor translating NT Greek into a common devotional language. It is a candid rendering presented in chronological order by books in five sections. This devotional text is true to the original language, but is easy to read and understand. Scripture means exactly what the first person who heard it understood it to mean, not what culture, tradition, or translators interpret the words to mean. Since most versions of scripture are academic, they have less devotional value. Getting a sense of the original intent in a common language provides an improved devotional understanding of the inspired text and will enable believers to remain evergreen with daily renewal.

"Is that a so tale?" the author's mother would ask when he repeated an anecdote or used a funny story. It was her way of asking if it were true. This collection of 200+ true stories using wit, wisdom, and humor reveals a Southern lad with English roots who grew up hard, who missed his father dearly, and who was surrounded by a loving family. Grouping the book into four sections: 1. Grandparents, Childhood, and Cousins; 2. Courtship, Marriage, and Relatives; 3. Domestic and Foreign Travel; and 4. Preachers and the Ministry, the author passes on to this and future generations a rare brand of insight learned from the daily events experienced as a child, a youthful minister, and a man. It's a good read that will make you laugh, sometimes cry, but leave you wiser than before.

One religion will never bring world peace or feed the children or care for the sick and dying. One group cannot eliminate poverty, violence, drugs, human trafficking or complete global spiritual change. A priority agenda must be to make people moral citizens of the world before they can become mystical citizens of heaven. Synergetic cooperation is not to suggest a least common denominator religion or that Judaism, Islam or Christianity should lose their culture or compromise their sacred reality. Culture and tradition are social glue that holds religions together. Yet, compromise (a "together-promise" agreement) is a necessary part of a common agenda for progress. Where organized groups choose not to function, personal action can make a difference and break down some of the barriers to an action agenda that could strengthen the monotheistic message. Remember, the goal for a global outreach is not domination or control, but emancipation from poverty and violence, and liberty to choose a personal and eternal destiny at the hands of Providence. For this to happen, the walls to personal faith and action must be removed.

A strengths-based approach to change for Administrators, Teachers and Guidance Counselors, this Second Edition is an expanded version of the transformational aspect of education that acknowledges the background and capacity of the staff, the teacher, and the learner. The curriculum becomes a vehicle to move the learner in a positive direction based on prior knowledge and maturity. This book provides a structure to nurture relationships between the system oversight, the principal, the teachers, the students, and the parents in a four-step model known as form storm norm - perform. This path to positive change is needed to adopt, deploy and ultimately bring about constructive change in the teaching/learning process. All involved in the educational arena must feel comfortable with the process and be open to new thinking and learning patterns for beneficial change to become a reality.

Research is not complicated; it is sophisticated. A research project initiated prematurely without proper understanding of the problem and a workable plan can become an accident just waiting to happen. Information must be gathered in a controlled manner and analyzed properly to reach a valid conclusion. This text is both an introduction and a handbook for social scientific research. Those who already have IT skills and are Internet savvy can solve problems that perplex family, work, community, established religion, or society at large by using simple keys of social research. For those who use it in a formal research degree program, an initial study of the text early in the program is recommended, then the "big picture" can be kept in focus as the candidate progresses.
