The tenets of the Pentagon of Faith have been developed over a lifetime of observation and study. Through the combination of classroom training and spiritual journeys in Europe from England, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, and Scandinavia to the Middle East from Israel to Jordan; Dr. Hayes has a unique outlook on how Christians express their devotion to God through worship. He discovered that the liturgical worship services of today have their roots in the Shabbat where he gathers with his Messianic Jewish wife (Cynthia Bush) to celebrate the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob at Beth Israel Temple in Florence, S.C. Dr. Hayes grew up in the Southern Baptist denomination where evangelical worship abounded but gravitated to the more traditional expression of worship through centuries-old liturgical traditions which have their beginnings in first century Judea, Samaria, and Galilee. Were they still here, C.S. Lewis, Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Martin Luther, and Francis Schaeffer would all enjoy the truths and evaluations in this book. Flesh versus Spirit, Good versus Evil, Sacred Theism versus Secular Humanism, the Hebrews call it Tob and Ra. The Pentagon of Faith examines our historic faith and helps us understand and navigate the unexpected twists and turns of our lives when we take a cue from the faith of our fathers. Their faith in God and His Son Jesus Christ shows us that eternal life is worth living the traditional faith of our fathers."One of the best books I have ever read. Every person should have a copy of this book."- THE REV. WILLIAM RHETT, CHARLESTON, S.C."Quite frankly, I could not put it down."- THE REV. H. FRED GOUGH, DARLINGTON, S.C."Dear Father, how can I thank you enough!!! Great book!!!- THE RT. REV. KEITH L. ACKERMAN,RETIRED BISHOP OF QUINCEY, KELLAR, TEXAS.

Forces are rapidly reshaping America's morals, social policies, and culture—but how do we stop it? Learn how to make your voice heard and reclaim America’s faith and values by reshaping our country’s current trajectory. Cultural elites in the media, academia, and politics are daily deceiving millions of Americans into passively supporting policies that are harmful to the nation and their own best interest. Although some Americans can see through the smokescreen, they feel powerless to stop the forces inside and outside government that radically threaten their values and principles. Drawing on her training in political science and law, Dr. Swain thoughtfully examines the religious significance of the founding of our nation and the deceptions that have crept into our daily lives and now threaten traditional families, unborn children, and members of various racial and ethnic groups—as well as national sovereignty itself. Dr. Swain provides encouraging action items for the people of our country to make the political system more responsive. The book is divided into two sections: forsaking what we once knew and re-embracing truth and justice in policy choices. Be the People covers key topics including: The damage caused political correctness and its censoring of traditional Christian expression of thought America's shift to moral relativism and its religious roots Erosion of rule of law, national security, and immigration Abortion's fragile facade and the true toll it takes Racial and ethnic challenges How we can reclaim the future In Be the People, Carol takes a candid look at the problems our country faces but that we’re often uncomfortable speaking honestly about, providing hope and actionable solutions to change the direction of America while we still can. “Be the People is a courageous analysis of today’s most pressing issues, exposing the deceptions by the cultural elite and urging ‘We the People’ to restore America’s faith and values.” —Sean Hannity

The rule of faith was a summary of apostolic preaching and teaching made by writers of the early Christian centuries. As such it carries great importance for what the early church considered basic to its being and identity. It was not a fixed text, like a creed, but varied in wording and content according to circumstances. Yet, despite this flexibility and diversity, there is a clear Christ-centered, Trinitarian core at the heart of the rule shared by the early apostolic churches. In this short guide, Everett Ferguson introduces readers to the primary sources of our knowledge of the rule, the variety of ways in which ancient Christian authors spoke of the rule, and different scholarly attempts to interpret this ancient evidence. Ferguson argues that statements of the rule of faith were used to instruct new or potential converts, to combat false teachings, and to provide a framework for interpreting the Scriptures. He maintains that the rule retains considerable importance for churches of the twenty-first century.

Re-Centering Culture and Knowledge in Conflict Resolution Practice by Mary Adams Trujillo,S. Y. Bowland,Linda James Myers,Phillip M. Richards,Beth Roy Pdf
The field of conflict resolution centers on relationships and ways of approaching methods for problem solving. These relationships and approaches vary deeply depending on the individual, society, and background, proving that cultural perspective is fundamental to any dispute intervention. Re-Centering Culture and Knowledge in Conflict Resolution Practice is a collection of original essays by scholars and practitioners of conflict resolution and others working in marginalized communities. The volume offers a sampling of the cultural voices essential to effective practice yet not commonly heard in the discourse of conflict resolution. The authors explore the role of culture, race, and oppression in resolving disputes. Drawing on firsthand experience and sound research, the authors address such issues as culturally sensitive mediation practices, the diversity of perspectives in conflict resolution literature, and power dynamics. The first anthology of its kind, this book combines personal narratives with formal scholarship. By melding these varied approaches, the authors seek to inspire activism for social justice in today’s multicultural society.
