Autobiography of Charles R. Barefoot Jr. The World Imperial Wizard for the Church of the Nation's Knights of the KU KLUX KLAN - 2 by Charles Barefoot Pdf

This book is based on a lawsuit filed in Washington DC against the Federal Governmental agency known as the Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF&E) Task Force. For over a decade the government has gotten away with the perfect crime against Charles Barefoot, all because Barefoot wanted to publish how corrupt the federal government and all its agencies, agents and courts truly are. Charles Barefoot was forced to protect his own life. According to government agents, Mr. Barefoot had no right whatsoever to protect himself from being murdered, even though no police officers would do anything to protect his life. The police was called on several occasions, but NO ONE did squat except to continue to allow the attempts on Author Barefoot's life. Yet it is law, that if anyone knew about someone attempting to murder, or hear that it happened and not report it, that person would be in conspiracy to a First Degree Murder Charge. What has occurred and is recorded in these contents shows that a person does not have any rights at all, only privileges that can be taken away at will. The Constitution of this country is a joke that you would get more use out of by wiping your rear end with it for toilet paper. Once you read these contents you will see just how corrupt the State and Federal Governments, Senators, and Legislators really are. If people trust their justice system they are damn fools. Charles Barefoot is well aware that he has made a lot of people madder than hell by refusing to lie down and be quiet. Mr. Barefoot has continued to refuse to lie down and be quiet, and continues to file papers to redress a one way corrupt government at any and all levels.

But What Is the Church For? by Neil Darragh Pdf

What is the church really for? Some people are members of the church because it’s part of their family tradition or their culture or their identity. Others have left the church because that’s all it is in fact. Is it the best way to salvation or a way of coming closer to God? In any case, the church is not just for us or the benefits we get out of it. Very few of us would say that this is what the church is really for. There is surely something more here, something more generous, life-giving, outgoing, and gracious than what we personally get out of it. This book is about the church’s outreach beyond itself—its purpose beyond any benefits for those already its members. This book is not about a church looking inwards and worrying about itself, but about a church looking outwards. The local Christian community that we belong to is part of that much bigger, much more exhilarating project of the evolving realm of God.

Missional. Monastic. Mainline. by Elaine A. Heath,Larry Duggins Pdf

Here is the long-awaited volume that provides both the theoretical foundations and practical guidance for developing new monastic and missional communities in contexts that are theologically progressive, racially and economically diverse, and multicultural. This book contains the wisdom and perspectives of people who live and serve in missional, new monastic communities in United Methodist and other mainline traditions, and it describes new forms of theological education that are emerging to resource a new generation of Christian leaders. Heath and Duggins challenge Methodists, Lutherans, Episcopalians, Presbyterians, and other Christians to reach into their own robust, mainline heritage for resources to develop small, intentional communities that practice a rigorous life of prayer, hospitality, and justice.

Take Courage by Mark A. Pierson,Timothy J Pauls Pdf

Take Courage is a collection of essays, written by pastors and professors, about the care and cure of souls in the 21st century. As spiritual physicians, pastors are called to diagnose and treat all those suffering with the disease of sin. This noble task requires much from these undershepherds who are placed over Christ's flock. Yet the Good Shepherd himself has provided the effective tools of this healing art: the life-giving word and sacraments. Pastors, then, specialize in applying the medicine of forgiveness and bringing comfort to broken consciences. Collectively, these essays teach and expound upon this theme. This helpful book honors the 45 years of faithful service given by one such undershepherd, Harold L. Senkbeil. As a pastor, seminary professor, author, speaker, husband, father, and the executive director of DOXOLOGY, Senkbeil has consistently provided competent treatment for both laity and pastors by distributing the forgiveness won by Jesus on the cross.

Missional Moves by Rob Wegner,Jack Magruder Pdf

The church was never designed to be a fortress for the righteous, but a flood of revolutionaries, bringing the Good News of the Kingdom to broken lives and broken communities. Today, millions of Christians are awakening to the holism of the gospel call, expanding their understanding of mission beyond just touching individual lives to impacting and transforming entire communities with the message of God’s grace. If this calling toward movement and transformation is to be realized, it will require some earth-shaking shifts—“Missional Moves”—that fundamentally alter our understanding of the church and how its mission is lived out. This book provides a plan of action for your church that will empower you to unleash each member on a mission, both locally and globally.

Real by Earl Buchan Pdf

Earl Buchan, a pastor and church planter, shares encouragement for all those looking around and saying to themselves “there must be more than this.” It all begins with a fearless searching of our hearts to rewild ministry from the inside-out. He looks to the Bible and over twenty years’ experience in the church to share from his own successes and failures sharing wisdom, warnings, and reminders of why we are meant to be in Christ. Earl shares that it all starts with us, live a life of openness and it will change the atmosphere in our churches and in our homes. As you read, you’ll get answers to questions such as: What can you really expect when you enter ministry? Why is it so important to be your authentic self in all circumstances? What are the costs to living His will, His way? How can we overcome ourselves so people see more of Jesus and less of us? This journey is not for the faint of heart, or those full of themselves. The author has been both, and he shares how the Lord rewilded his own heart in order to reveal the beauty of a called life.
