It's the Money, Amen by Siam Erzuah Pdf

When two money-conscious teenage thugs, Joseph Basabasa and Nipa Crazima, feel they could not tolerate receiving an undeserved education at a delinquent institution, Delinqhose Reformatory, they plan and implement an escape strategy to launch their careers as preachers of faith and miracle workers. Having succeeded in establishing themselves as miracle workers, the two friends, now called Pastor Joe Wrap and Mallam Nipa Manabad, achieve their aim by becoming rich while commanding thousands of followers. In their routine undertakings, they indulge in blatant deception to achieve their goals, while Joe Wrap particularly ups the ante by engaging in reckless philandering. With Wrap involved in cheating, his wife, Yenti-Gyae Wrap, decides to turn the tables on him by dating a young drug dealer. The pastor, however, could not stand the insult of his wife cheating on him and thus kills his wife's boyfriend. To settle the score, Mrs. Wrap avenges her late boyfriend by murdering her husband's girlfriend, Whinny Wilgetmyshare, when she catches the two having an affair. The Wraps are able to escape justice by using bribery while exploiting the incompetency of the local police force. At a certain point in time, an ascetic and itinerant Christian preacher, Man-of-Sorrow, with the help of an old pious and learned Muslim ally, El-Hajj Yudugud (who also happens to know the two charlatans), confronts the pastor and his Muslim friend on their unsavory deeds. The two faith peddlers, however, resent the intrusion and plan to eliminate the new adversaries if the need arises. Also caught in the saga of the faith peddlers are two philanthropic expatriates, Darling Adomaityte and Kidest Desta, who are working assiduously to assist members of Pastor Wrap's church and others while, at the same time, endeavoring to expose the pastor and his Muslim accomplice. At the end of this thrilling saga, victims of Pastor Wrap and Nipa Manabad avenge their ill treatment by planning and implementing the elimination of both religious preachers.

The programme, which has been broadcast daily at 5:43am for several decades, and continues to attract over half a million dedicated listeners, comprises a short 2-minute reflection to start your day.

There will be a foreword by a prominent figure in the faith community, a short profile of each contributor and an index of contributors. To emphasise the point that the reflections can be used daily, they are ordered by date (i.e. 1st January, 2nd January etc), and each entry is selected on the basis of it being as date-specific as possible. The date of broadcast is underneath each entry, and dates are also marked at the top corners of each page so they can be found easily.

In GOD’S TOUCH, Henry wants you to know that we need the Touch and Voice of God in everything we do, as Children of God - Don't think that the Lord is too weak to save you, or too deaf to hear your call for help (Isaiah 59;1) God is the Arm that hold you at your weakest, the Eye that will see you at your darkest and the Heart that will love you at your Worst. As you sit with God you are greeted with his Almighty outstretched hand in and out. In his touch are deep places of the earth, the heights of the hills are also his (Psalms 95;4). In his hand and touch he satisfy the desires of everything. Salvation, Blessing, Deliverance, Provision Wisdom, Change, Love, Financial-Breakthrough, Relationship, Leadership, Dominion, Promises, and more. Amen. I have lived and seen GOD’S hand and touch throughout my life time, and all was the best for me.

The Essential Harlem Detectives by Chester Himes Pdf

The New York Times Book Review Editors' Choice • A one-volume selection of four novels in the legendary detective series—blistering, groundbreaking capers set in Harlem's criminal underworld—by master crime writer Chester Himes. With an introduction by New York Times bestselling author S.A. Cosby. “[Himes] put a spin on crime fiction—emphasizing urban atmosphere, street smarts, and uptown carryings-on—unlike anything the genre had previously seen.” —The Boston Globe “Himes’s Harlem saga vies with the novels of David Goodis and Jim Thompson as the inescapable achievement of postwar American crime fiction.” —The New York Times "His implacable drive to examine the Black experience, the disingenuous nature of the American Dream, the reality of pain and sorrow and what it does to the soul, that is what makes [Himes] the bard of the existential African American psyche." —S.A. Cosby, from his Introduction Here in one volume is an exceptional selection from Chester Himes's acclaimed Harlem Detectives series. Winner of France's prestigious Grand Prix de Littérature Policière and lauded by Jean Cocteau as a "prodigious masterpiece," A Rage in Harlem introduces detectives Grave Digger Jones and Coffin Ed Johnson in a searing escapade. In The Real Cool Killers, the duo investigates a shooting and discovers an unsettling personal connection. In The Crazy Kill, a man is found in a breadbasket, stabbed to death, leaving Himes's detectives to find out who among the many suspects did it. And in Cotton Comes to Harlem, the brazen robbery of a notorious con man running a back-to-Africa scam sets off a hunt for a bale of Southern cotton. These masterful novels exhibit Himes's evocative, baroque descriptions of Black life in Harlem and his famously blistering social commentary. Everyman's Library pursues the highest production standards, printing on acid-free paper, with full-cloth cases with two-color foil stamping, decorative endpapers, silk ribbon markers, European-style half-round spines, and a full-color illustrated jacket. Contemporary Classics include an introduction, a select bibliography, and a chronology of the author's life and times. "The best writer of mayhem yarns since Raymond Chandler." —San Francisco Chronicle

Money and Power by Jacques Ellul Pdf

Rich or poor, we all face the problem of money. But is money chiefly a personal problem of how we manage our resources or a societal problem of how we organize the economy? Jacques Ellul exposes the folly of a purely societal approach -- whether communism, collectivism, socialism, or capitalism -- and argues for individual responsibility. Money, he says, is not neutral, somthing we can use as we like. Instead it is a powerful agent that sets itself against God's kingdom. Tracing the scriptural attitudes toward wealth from Old Testament sacramentalism through New Testament renunciation, he challenges Christians to live by the law of grace and not by the law of the marketplace.

Inside Money by Zachary Karabell Pdf

A sweeping history of the legendary private investment firm Brown Brothers Harriman, exploring its central role in the story of American wealth and its rise to global power Conspiracy theories have always swirled around Brown Brothers Harriman, and not without reason. Throughout the nineteenth century, when America was convulsed by a devastating financial panic essentially every twenty years, Brown Brothers quietly went from strength to strength, propping up the U.S. financial system at crucial moments and catalyzing successive booms, from the cotton trade and the steamship to the railroad, while largely managing to avoid the unwelcome attention that plagued some of its competitors. By the turn of the twentieth century, Brown Brothers was unquestionably at the heart of what was meant by an American Establishment. As America's reach extended beyond its shores, Brown Brothers worked hand in glove with the State Department, notably in Nicaragua in the early twentieth century, where the firm essentially took over the country's economy. To the Brown family, the virtue of their dealings was a given; their form of muscular Protestantism, forged on the playing fields of Groton and Yale, was the acme of civilization, and it was their duty to import that civilization to the world. When, during the Great Depression, Brown Brothers ensured their strength by merging with Averell Harriman's investment bank to form Brown Brothers Harriman, the die was cast for the role the firm would play on the global stage during World War II and thereafter, as its partners served at the highest levels of government to shape the international system that defines the world to this day. In Inside Money, acclaimed historian, commentator, and former financial executive Zachary Karabell offers the first full and frank look inside this institution against the backdrop of American history. Blessed with complete access to the company's archives, as well as a thrilling understanding of the larger forces at play, Karabell has created an X-ray of American power--financial, political, cultural--as it has evolved from the early 1800s to the present. Today, unlike many of its competitors, Brown Brothers Harriman remains a private partnership and a beacon of sustainable capitalism, having forgone the heady speculative upsides of the past thirty years but also having avoided any role in the devastating downsides. The firm is no longer in the command capsule of the American economy, but, arguably, that is to its credit. If its partners cleaved to any one adage over the generations, it is that a relentless pursuit of more can destroy more than it creates.

Forever and Ever, Amen by Randy Travis Pdf

A riveting tale of unfathomable success great joy deep pain, and redemption that can come only from above. From a working-class background in North Carolina to a job as a cook and club singer in Nashville to his "overnight success" with his smash 1986 album Storms of Life--which launched the neotraditional movement in country music--Randy's first three decades are a true rags-to-riches story. But in 2009, this seemingly charmed life began a downward spiral. His marriage dissolved, he discovered that his finances had unraveled, and his struggles with anger led to alcohol abuse, public embarrassment, and even police arrest in 2012. Then, just as he was putting his life back together, Randy suffered a devastating viral cardiomyopathy that led to a massive stroke which he was not expected to survive. Yet he not only survived but also learned to walk again and, in 2016, accepted his induction into the Country Music Hall of Fame by singing the hymn that explains his life today: "Amazing Grace." Filled with never-before-told stories, Forever and Ever, Amen is a fascinating behind-the-scenes look at dizzying success and the miraculous road to restoration.

It's All about Him by Frances Dicrescenza Pdf

This book contains many Scripture verses and is meant for all those who are looking for the truth of what life truly holds for each of us. I've chosen this particular verse of Scripture in hopes that the Holy Spirit will inspire you to walk with Him. II Timothy 3: 14 - 17 But you, remain faithful to what you have learned and believed, because you know from whom you learned it, and that from infancy you have known the sacred Scriptures, which are capable of giving you wisdom for salvation through the faith in Christ Jesus. All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful for teaching for refutation, for correction, and for training in righteousness, so that one who belongs to God may be competent, equipped for every good work. Frances DiCrescenza, mother of 5 children and grandmother of 13 grandchildren. Her inspiration to write on faith and total trust in Jesus Christ has been a tremendous blessing for the many people who are confused about their own faith and need the love and understanding of a truly Majestic God who loves us all.
