Cain's Redemption by Dennis Shere Pdf

Formerly known as America's bloodiest prison, the 18,000 acres that comprise Louisiana's Angola State Penitentiary are now home to 5,000 inmates, a full range of seasonal crops, a 9-hole golf course, yearly rodeos, a Bible seminary, a museum, and much more. All of this came into being at the behest of Warden Burl Cain, who is now the longest-standing warden in the history of Angola prison. Under his leadership, the inmate population of 5,000 has gone from regular knife fights to Bible studies. Cain is a strong believer in the ability of the gospel to turn the most incorrigible of sinners into productive, moral citizens. Because eight out of ten prisoners are serving life sentences without parole at Angola, Cain has taken upon himself the task of making the lives of these prisoners productive and educational. Through a partnership with New Orleans Baptist Seminary, prisoners have the opportunity to get a bible degree and even be transferred to other prisons as a missionary. The Angola phenomenon has been covered by such media outlets as: Time Magazine, Christianity Today, and in the award-winning film documentary, The Farm: Angola, USA. Author Dennis Shere combines his background in journalism and law to bring readers this account of redemption and life change in the most unlikely of places: a maximum security prison.

Alex Masters is pursuing her dreams and cousin Daisy has overcome her demons, but the enemy does not rest, and their adversary, Darius Lench, is desperate to atone for his mistakes.

This Is Herman Cain! by Herman Cain Pdf

When Herman Cain speaks, people listen. When he debates, he wins. If you care about the future of America, you have heard of the down-to-earth political newcomer running for president, the straight-talking man of the people with blunt assessments of what America needs. Originally overlooked by mainstream politicos and media, Herman Cain is truly a candidate from “outside the Beltway,” but no longer one who is being ignored. BUT WHO IS HE? While Herman Cain has been the host of a popular conservative Atlanta-area radio talk show called The Herman Cain Show, a different name originally captured American interest. As CEO, Herman Cain transformed Godfather’s Pizza from a company teetering on the verge of bankruptcy into a household word. Cain—as those with an interest in commonsense solutions to political problems will remember—is also famous for using the language and logic of everyday business to expose the fallacies inherent in Clinton assumptions about “Hillarycare” during a 1994 televised town hall meeting. WHAT IS HIS STORY? Herman Cain’s rise is the embodiment of the American dream. His parents, Luther and Lenora Cain, made a living the only way black people could in the ’40s and ’50s. Luther held down three jobs, including being a chauffeur; Lenora cleaned houses. They had two big dreams: to buy a house and to see their sons graduate from college. With dedication and hard work, they made both these dreams come true. In this thrilling memoir, Herman Cain describes his past and present . . . and the future he is determined to create, a future that will put our country back on track. His message resonates because he describes the American reality, and his down-to-earth personal tale of hope and hard work is both unforgettable and inspirational. *** What is it in my DNA that years ago prompted me to forgo the ease of cruise control and take on the enormous challenge of doing my part toward making America a better place for my granddaughter and the generations to come? Why do I, a son of the segregated South, refuse to think of myself as a “victim” of racism? What is it that motivates me to insist on defining my identity in terms of “ABC”—as being American first, black second, and Conservative third? Just who is Herman Cain? And how did I get this way? Just a hint: it may have had something to do with lessons learned from my parents, Lenora and Luther Cain, Jr. —From This Is Herman

Blood and Fire by Dr. Victor T. Nyarko Pdf

This book is about the biblical story of Cain and Abel, the first products of human procreation through Adam and Eve. This story is unique in that there are a couple of things done that were unknowns to human history. It is a story that although began with God’s judgement against sinful human nature inherited through Adam and Eve, however, it ends with the powerful act of redemption that only comes from a God of second chances.

The Changes of Cain by Ricardo J. Quinones Pdf

Era by era, from the writings of the classical Christian epoch up to East of Eden and Amadeus, from Philo to Finnegans Wake, Ricardo Quinones examines the contexts of a master metaphor of our culture. This brilliant work is the first comprehensive book on the Cain and Abel story. "Ricardo Quinones takes us on a grand tour of Western civilization in his admirable book, which reveals the riches of the Cain-Abel story as it develops from its Biblical origin to Citizen Kane and Michel Tournier. This is cultural history and literary criticism of the first order, finely written, formidably but gracefully erudite, and illustrating the capacity of Judeo-Christian culture and the modernity emerging from it constantly to criticize the darker side of its own foundations and realizations."--Joseph Frank "Ricardo J. Quinones skips Biblical and Talmudic exegesis to follow Cain and Abel through later centuries, from classical times to the present. What he uncovers sheds light on important shifts of consciousness and behavior in European and American culture. . . . Quinones writes with true eloquence and conviction. . . ."--James Finn Cotter, The Hudson Review "Quinones's study of how [the] three Cains were transformed by Romanticism and Modernism into a sometimes positive, sometimes negative, but always necessary archetype of the modern world is literary and cultural analytic history at its very best."--Choice Ricardo J. Quinones is Josephine Olp Weeks Professor of English and Comparative Literatures, and Director of the Gould Center for Humanistic Studies, at Claremont McKenna College in Claremont, California. He is the author of The Renaissance Discovery of Time (Harvard), Dante Alighieri (Twayne), and Mapping Literary Modernism: Time and Development (Princeton). Originally published in 1991.

The Bellowing of Cain: Hope for Those Who've Blown It by Jeremy Gordon Grinnell Pdf

It’s a strange form of Christianity that would deny that perpetrators of evil can be redeemed. The Bellowing of Cain was written primarily to those who, like Cain, have made horrible life-wrecking decisions and secondarily to those who have a calling to live and work with them. It is written by a fellow traveler who understands what it means to destroy one’s life…for he once did so. ​ In the culture of disposable people, we need a book like The Bellowing of Cain to teach us about the unique journey taken by people with such baggage―baggage like shame, loss, and remorse. Such luggage is heavy and bends the back of those who must carry it, and they often walk alone. Who will speak for them?

The Book of Cain by James Pressler Pdf

The best of people yield to society's evils, and everyone can be redeemed. From the inner city comes Mark Cain, a man of simple beliefs who also thinks he is Cain, Son of Adam, Brother of Abel, forced to walk the Earth beyond the judgment of Man until he is forgiven. He is cursed to know neither friends nor enemies, love or hate, or any judgment from society. Then he meets someone who is different. Inexplicably, she can judge him, sympathize with him - even show concern. Mark's solitary life now has someone reaching to him. Is she divine? Has she been sent to relieve him of his curse? Or has he failed to redeem himself? All he knows is that he must follow her, obey her, and find out how she can lead him to redemption. This work of literary fiction with modest religious overtones is set in the inner city, but tells a tale that is, at its core, about the human view of judgment and salvation.

The Mark of Cain by Katharina von Kellenbach Pdf

The Mark of Cain fleshes out a history of conversations that contributed to Germany's coming to terms with a guilty past. Katharina von Kellenbach draws on letters exchanged between clergy and Nazi perpetrators, written notes of prison chaplains, memoirs, sermons, and prison publications to illuminate the moral and spiritual struggles of perpetrators after World War II. These documents provide intimate insights into the self-reflection and self-perception of perpetrators. As Germany looks back on more than sixty years of passionate debate about political, personal and legal guilt, its ongoing engagement with the legacy of perpetration has transformed German culture and politics. The willingness to forgive and forget displayed by the father in the parable of the Prodigal Son became the paradigm central to Germany's rehabilitation and reintegration of Nazi perpetrators. The problem with Luke's parable in this context is that, unlike the son in the parable, perpetrators did not ask for forgiveness. Most agents of state crimes felt innocent. Von Kellenbach proposes the story of the mark of Cain as a counter narrative. In contrast to the Prodigal Son, who is quickly forgiven and welcomed back into the house of the father, the fratricidal Cain is charged to rebuild his life on the basis of open communication about the past. The story of the Prodigal Son equates forgiveness with forgetting; Cain's story links redemption with remembrance and suggests a strategy of critical engagement with perpetrators.

Cain's Redemption by Wayne Walter Pdf

Cain Hayden has been gunman, rustler, horse thief, and road agent. How one can go downward from there seems impossible, but Cain has done it. Now, as Yuma's official town drunk, he's reached the point that to go anywhere would mean going up. And with the help of friend Muley Evans, and Missus Melody Tate, madam and proprietress of the notorious Deitrich Dairy Farm, he has the chance to do just that. All he needs to do is avoid deadly confrontations with back-shooter Deputy Enid Claver, Mexican banditos, the sadistic killer known as Sergio Sandini, and desert Apaches. But Cain is one of the famous, or perhaps infamous, West Texas Hayden clan. And that makes Cain Hayden an odds-on favorite. Wayne A. Walter's western adventure series follows the Hayden Clan of West Texas, recalling the excitement and danger of the old West. Starting with the two Hayden brothers, Abel and Cain, along with Abel and Sarah's six offspring -- Matt, Mark, Luke, Johnny, Ruth and Esther -- there are plenty enough Haydens, and more than enough excitement to go around. And the action isn't limited to their West Texas ranch. Danger and adventure take family members to the Arizona and New Mexico Territory, Colorado, and even old Mexico.
