Lewis George Clarke published the story of his life as a slave in
1845, after he had escaped from Kentucky and become a well-regarded
abolitionist lecturer throughout the North. His book was the first
work by a slave to be acquired by the Library of Congress and
copyrighted. During the 1840s he lived in the Cambridge,
Massachusetts, home of Aaron and Mary Safford, where he encountered
Mary's stepsister, Harriet Beecher Stowe, along with Frederick
Douglass, Lewis Tappan, Gerrit Smith, Josiah Henson, John Brown,
Lydia Child, and Martin Delaney. His experiences are evident in
Uncle Tom's Cabin, published in 1852, and Stowe identified him as
the prototype for the book's rebellious character George Harris.
This facsimile edition of Clarke's book is introduced by his great
grandson, Carver Clark Gayton, who has served as director of
Affirmative Action Programs at the University of Washington;
corporate director of educational relations and training for the
Boeing Company; lecturer at the Evans School of Public
Administration, University of Washington; and executive director of
the Northwest African American Museum. He lives in Seattle. A V

The nation seems poised on a precipice, ready to plunge into chaos.
Each day new laws are passed and Supreme Court decisions rendered
that anger ordinary citizens, while partisan politics begin to
frustrate and even overwhelm some dedicated lawmakers at the
nation's capital; lawmakers who must decide if they will resign,
and perhaps take up arms. One by one some leaders and ordinary
citizens begin to believe that active rebellion against Washington
and its collective mindset, which seems to believe that Congress
and the President must run the daily lives of the nation's
inadequate citizenry, is the only way to solve the perhaps
insurmountable chasm which has developed between the rulers and the
ruled. Slowly, and then with increasing speed, states declare
refusal to obey legislation signed by the President and . . . one
by one states begin to declare independence from objectionable
laws, as a new secessionist mindset develops in the Inter-mountain
West. Some fear that a new Civil War is not only possible, but
inevitable. This time it's not North versus South, but East versus
West. As some race to succession and perhaps war, others
desperately labor to stop and maybe even reverse the course of
legislative arrogance that seems to be driving the nation to war
with itself. Can the nation survive another time of brother against
brother and father against son, as nanny-state laws seem to leave
the unraveling Constitution hanging by a thread?
p>You are the right person for this job
It's one of those words that seems to hold so much meaning but
somehow resides just out of our reach: disciple. How do I become
one? And how do I become a disciple-maker?
There's no secret formula, nor is there a one-size-fits-all plan
for disciple-making, but there are examples to follow. And there
are certainly adventures to be had
Disciple-making at its core is learning--and demonstrating--how
to relate lovingly to God and to others. These pages are at once
practical and packed with stories; they are big-picture-minded and
strategy-filled. Read on to see how a disciple-making lifestyle
will affect your view of:
belonging hospitality relationship-building asking the right
questions community and how to best love others
In fact, discipleship is already in the heart of every
Christian. Don't let your fear, your insecurities, or your busyness
get in the way. If you know how to be a friend, you already know
most of what you need to be a disciple-maker. Take one step of
obedience. Just go.
