Deacon of Death by Fred Rosen Pdf

Baptist deacon, family man, pillar of his Florida community . . . and serial killer of prostitutes: chilling true crime from the author of Lobster Boy. By day, Sam Smithers was the deacon of his Baptist church in Plant City, Florida, a respected neighbor to many, and a devoted husband and father. But after the sun set, he became something else: a violent attacker—and killer—of prostitutes. Smithers’s twisted double life came to light when a local woman who had hired him to take care of her property found him in her garage, cleaning an ax—and then discovered a puddle of blood. Through exclusive interviews with Smithers’s wife, who described her spouse as nothing but a doting husband and father, author Fred Rosen learned why this man of God, raised in an intensely religious Tennessee home, was the last person anyone would suspect of committing these savage crimes. Rosen reveals the details behind the deaths of Christy Cowan and Denise Roach after Smithers picked them up in Tampa—and the fate of a man who seemed holier than thou, but was actually guilty as sin.

Deacon of Death by Jack Smith Pdf

The respected deacon that had everything going for him and turned serial killer in the blink of an eye. What happened? Here is his story. Sam Smithers stood out as a pillar of his community. He respected his mother, he loved his wife and son, he was a hard worker, and he went to church. In fact, he not only went to church; he was ordained as a deacon. He had also served as a firefighter and an unofficial mentor shepherding troubled youths who did community service for the church under his watch.But that was before the killing began. It remains unclear just how many people he may have killed, but the two women that he was convicted of murdering were slaughtered in such a horrific and callous fashion as to leave no doubt that Sam Smithers was a sociopath of the lowest order. This book describes the misdeeds of Sam Smithers-the Deacon of Death-in full. Scroll back up and click the BUY NOW button at the top right side of this page to order your copy now!

Deacon King Kong (Oprah's Book Club) by James McBride Pdf

Winner of the Anisfield-Wolf Book Award for Fiction Winner of the Gotham Book Prize One of Barack Obama's "Favorite Books of the Year" Oprah's Book Club Pick Named one of the Top Ten Books of the Year by the New York Times, Entertainment Weekly and TIME Magazine A Washington Post Notable Novel From the author of The Heaven & Earth Grocery Store, the National Book Award–winning The Good Lord Bird, and the bestselling modern classic The Color of Water, comes one of the most celebrated novels of the year. In September 1969, a fumbling, cranky old church deacon known as Sportcoat shuffles into the courtyard of the Cause Houses housing project in south Brooklyn, pulls a .38 from his pocket, and, in front of everybody, shoots the project’s drug dealer at point-blank range. The reasons for this desperate burst of violence and the consequences that spring from it lie at the heart of Deacon King Kong, James McBride’s funny, moving novel and his first since his National Book Award–winning The Good Lord Bird. In Deacon King Kong, McBride brings to vivid life the people affected by the shooting: the victim, the African-American and Latinx residents who witnessed it, the white neighbors, the local cops assigned to investigate, the members of the Five Ends Baptist Church where Sportcoat was deacon, the neighborhood’s Italian mobsters, and Sportcoat himself. As the story deepens, it becomes clear that the lives of the characters—caught in the tumultuous swirl of 1960s New York—overlap in unexpected ways. When the truth does emerge, McBride shows us that not all secrets are meant to be hidden, that the best way to grow is to face change without fear, and that the seeds of love lie in hope and compassion. Bringing to these pages both his masterly storytelling skills and his abiding faith in humanity, James McBride has written a novel every bit as involving as The Good Lord Bird and as emotionally honest as The Color of Water. Told with insight and wit, Deacon King Kong demonstrates that love and faith live in all of us.

Deacons by Matt Smethurst Pdf

How Can Deacons Mobilize Service in the Church? Deacons are essential to a church's health—yet confusion abounds regarding their biblical job description. What's their God-given role in a local congregation and how do they relate to the church's overall mission? In this short book, Matt Smethurst makes the case that deacons are model servants called to meet tangible needs, organize and mobilize acts of service, preserve the unity of the flock, and support the ministry of the elders. Clearing away common misconceptions, Smethurst offers practical guidance for deploying deacons and helping churches to flourish.

The seminary powers that be fearing a scandal allow a cover-up thus the death is treated as accidental.An earthquake brings temporary closure to the seminary giving Cuch time to search for his friend's killer. The victim's mother invites Cuch, her son's best friend, to spend his free time at her family home in Redlands. The mother remains under the impression her son's death was accidental. Cuch convinces her foul play occurred. Barbara, the victim's sister, elects to join Cuch in his mission suggesting they make the family farmhouse in the Imperial Valley their base of operations. The identity of the killer is discovered, not the identity of the person who fronted the money for the pay-for-murder scheme. Surely in this case the means justify the ending.
