My Soul Looks Back and Wonders: the Call of God on a Woman's Life by Elaine Rose Penn Pdf

There are thousands of great women of God who were pioneers of the faith and the gospel. Though many of their names are lost to us forever, the record of their exploits for the sake of the Kingdom are engraved in the eternal and living chronicles of heaven. They represent the hues and colors of God ́s rainbow and are present in the history of every denomination, faith and religion. Women have dug out churches, cleaned them, closed them and built them. They were visionaries, ground-breakers, pathfinders, the bridges that brought us over, trend-setters, armor-bearers, leaders, agents for change and disciples. They cooked, cried, sang, marched, testified, organized, did the holy dance, counseled, and prayed while everybody else slept. They carried the "work" on their bare knuckles, tear drops, hips, lips and hearts. In the pages of this delightful book filled with powerful scriptural revelation, candor, insight and instruction,Elaine Rose Penn delivers a challenge to women called to the gospel ministry to be true to their femininity, and adhere to a high standard of excellence and accountability in the conduct of their service to Christ.

Mahalia by Tom Stolz Pdf

Including music by various gospel composers as well as hymns and spirituals made famous by Mahalia Jackson, this is a joyous celebration of the life and music of the world's greatest gospel singer: a humble, deeply religious woman whose expressive, full throated voice carried her from a three room shanty in New Orleans to appearances before presidents and royalty. The joy and inspiration of her heartfelt songs provide a counterpoint to the urgent messages delivered by her friend, Martin Luther King. Standing at his side, Mahalia Jackson became the musical voice of the civil rights movement. Mahalia uses simple staging, only three actors, and piano and organ accompaniments to showcase 22 great gospel numbers in a moving, often humorous musical tribute.

Only God Has And Knows The Answers by Cecilia Hood Ceewee Pdf

First uno and foremost thank -U- all glory be to God/and his magnificent son Jesus. About the book. As I stated somewhere in these stories turned testimonies, when the thought crossed my mind to write the newly fashioned devotional book, whether I was watching television, eating or doing some female stuff, bathing dressing, getting to mama’s or chilling on our front porch, should I wear this or that? The ensemble was well put together. I did not feel like trying to know if I could style my hair this way or that, and left it to its own mind, and went forward in the day. And after checking me out @ home, and then again for confirmation quickly checking me out as I passed someone’s parked car, and accepted for eternity you are a negro gypsy hippy bottomline, leave your hair as it is. It crossed my mind again, that you should write something concerning the new diversity and arguabaly that has actually been around since the beginning of time. Who is straight? Who is lgbtq? And whose business is it really? Not talking to myself yet out loud thoughts escaping my mind, and sheba baby was ignoring me she’d heard enough earlier. And you have enough praying concerning your own, and 14% give and take a % of us have had our shared experiences, male and female, and still thankful to have conceived and birth children, hello & hello. So yes, really speaking for the females in our family.Then it crossed my mind that I understood the difference between this and that and of the universe 40% of diseases and hopefully sooner than later cures.. Well we’d all have to go back to the beginning of time to hopefully understand just how many diseases occurred in the land of purity. God's creation. Humans mess up. Only he knows and has the answer to what the words read. Personally I am good where I am in 2023. Oh my goodness gracious! God/Jesus got my attention early right about 2:30 am. Write what you are reading, and I was not nor will be the only one to wonder, or write about the touchy topic and you have experience, and have read Romans 1 uno:26 vienta y seis, and I laughed, cried and smiled and did some mellow shouting. I prayed he would answer and here we are. Inspired specifically by, and through Christ the one who created it and us all. Here we are, please enjoy every word and with much understanding. Continually praying for ourselves and as many as our hands, and hearts can handle. Peace and peacefulness unto us all peace on earth and more unity around the universe.

Imagining Grace by Kimberly Rae Connor Pdf

In this subtle and illuminating study, Kimberly Rae Connor surveys examples of contemporary literature, drama, art, and music that extend the literary tradition of African-American slave narratives. Revealing the powerful creative links between this tradition and liberation theology's search for grace, she shows how these artworks profess a liberating theology of racial empathy and reconciliation, even if not in traditionally Christian or sacred language. From Frederick Douglass's autobiographical writings through Richard Wright's imaginative reconstruction of slavery to Ernest Gaines's Autobiography of Miss Jane Pittman and the candescent novels of Toni Morrison, slave narratives exhort the reader to step into the experience of the dispossessed. Connor underscores the broad influence of the slave narrative by considering nonliterary as well as literary works, including Glenn Ligon's introspective art, Anna Deavere Smith's one-woman performance pieces, and Charlie Haden's politically engaged Liberation Music Orchestra. Through these works, readers, listeners, and viewers imagine grace on two levels: as the liberation of the enslaved from oppression and as their own liberation from prejudice and "willed innocence." Calling to task a complacent white society that turns a blind eye to deep-seated and continuing racial inequalities, Imagining Grace shows how these creative endeavors embody the search for grace, seeking to expose racism in all its guises and lay claim to political, intellectual, and spiritual freedom.

Contesting the Terrain of the Ivory Tower by Rochelle Garner Pdf

This study examines the leadership of three African-American women administrators in higher education, and how they have used their spirituality as a lens to lead in the academy. The central questions in this case study include: How do African-American women make meaning of their spiritual selves in their everyday leadership practices? How does their spirituality influence their work and the type of relationships they develop with others in the academy? What are the ways in which these three women have used their spirituality as a lens to lead, and how does this leadership impact the social, cultural and political construct of a male-dominated arena?

Black Catholic Studies Reader by David J. Endres Pdf

This first-ever Black Catholic Studies Reader offers an introduction to the theology and history of the Black Catholic experience from those who know it best: Black Catholic scholars, teachers, activists, and ministers. The reader offers a multi-faceted, interdisciplinary approach that illuminates what it means to be Black and Catholic in the United States. This collection of essays from prominent scholars, both past and present, brings together contributions from theologians M. Shawn Copeland, Kim Harris, Diana Hayes, Bryan Massingale, and C. Vanessa White, and historians Cecilia Moore, Diane Batts Morrow, and Ronald Sharps, and selections from an earlier generation of thinkers and activists, including Thea Bowman, Cyprian Davis, and Clarence Rivers. Contributions delve into the interlocking fields of history, spirituality, liturgy, and biography. Through their contributions, Black Catholic Studies scholars engage theologies of liberation and the reality of racism, the Black struggle for recognition within the Church, and the distinctiveness of African-inspired spirituality, prayer, and worship. By considering their racial and religious identities, these select Black Catholic theologians and historians add their voices to the contemporary conversation surrounding culture, race, and religion in America, inviting engagement from students and teachers of the American experience, social commentators and advocates, and theologians and persons of faith.

My Soul Looks Back and Wonders... How I Got Over by David C. Penn Pdf

In this presentation, Dr. David C. Penn invites the reader on a historical pilgrimage back to the early portion of the nineteenth century, in order to revisit the lineage and inception of the George-Kennedy-Anderson-Cathey family of African descent. According to the author, It is incumbent upon those of us who are surrogates of their sacrifices, to remember the longsuffering, the labor, the toil and the tears, which has been given on our behalf by this esteemed ?ÇÿCollective which had its beginning in the ?Çÿslave state of Tennessee. It is without question a legacy of unfaltering faith that we should never forget.

This Far by Faith by Linnie Frank,Andria Hall Pdf

"If your faith is the size of a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, 'move from here to there,' and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you."--Matthew 17:20 A clarion call for those who want to have God in their lives every day and not just on Sundays, This Far by Faith offers clear-sighted, friendly advice that will guide readers gently into the new millennium. As the owners of a flourishing company called This Far by Faith Enterprises, Linnie Frank and Andria Hall have started nationwide "Circle of Seven" prayer groups, produce a newsletter called "The Mustard Seed," and conduct lectures and seminars at their Rhode Island retreat center. Now, in This Far by Faith, Frank and Hall share the "Faith Formula" they have developed in their work together, which they use in their own lives to conquer daily obstacles. Through Scripture, original prayers and affirmations, and plain old-fashioned "straight talk," the authors tackle issues ranging from friendship, family, love, marriage, child-rearing, and work, all while underscoring the importance of faith and perseverance as a way of maintaining balance in today's busy world. In chapters such as "What You Won't Do for Love," "Keeping the Home Fires Burning," "A House Is Not a Home," "Jobs, Career, and Callings," and "Give Me That Old Time Religion," Frank and Hall discuss ways to "live in the light."
