The New Slave Masters

George Dallas McKinney

It's SLAVERY all over again! The New Slavemasters that are destroying hopes and dreams in families and relationships are even more threatening than their whip-wielding predecessors. These new Slavemasters’ evil-rooted forces – drugs, gangs, violence, racism, materialism, deception, teen pregnancy, and sexual promiscuity – still WALK AND LIVE AMONG US.
Nearly two centuries ago, Satan used mankind’s deeply rooted sin that resulted in humanity enslaving a race of God’s creation—African-Americans. In this new day when African-Americans enjoy complete freedom, there are new, insidious Slavemasters that work outside civilized law and labor to ensnare black families —and for that matter, families of all races.
This book provides a blueprint for restoration and strengthening of African American families. The term, The New Slavemasters, comes from my experiences of present-day enslavement of prevailing temptations and devastation of plagues that wrought the inner city suburbs in my community, resulting in self-imposed slavery and family destruction. When Christians [born-again] and non-Christians fail to recognize the bondage and break the chains that destroy our entire nation, they lose their freedom and volunteer to re-enter into forms of slavery.
This entire book helps give awareness of how to break free from and remain free of The New Slavemasters. Reader’s Study Guide, Chapter notes, questions and answers, true stories and illustrations are inserted to support and encourage Bible-study groups, scriptural understanding, and prayer devotions against the assault of the new Slavemasters.
The book begins with a mother trying desperately to save her son’s life that was impacted by drugs and “dirty” (drug) money. But, in the endless struggle to free her son from these new Slavemasters’ hold on him, tragedy occurs – he dies before her very eyes.

Practicing the Way of Jesus -...

Mark Scandrette

Take a casual survey of how people practice their faith, and you might reasonably conclude that Jesus spent his life going door to door offering private lessons, complete with chalkboard and pop quizzes. We think about God in the comfort of our own minds, in isolation from one another; meanwhile the world waits for a people to practice the way of Jesus together.Mark Scandrette contends that Jesus has in mind something more lively for us: not a classroom so much as a kingdom, where our formation takes place not only in our heads but in our hearts and our bodies, and in the company of one another, in a way that blesses the world we've been entrusted with. In Practicing the Way of Jesus Scandrette draws from his experience as a spiritual director and leader of an intentional community, as well as the best contemporary thinking on kingdom spirituality, to paint a picture of life lived together, in the way of Jesus--which is another way of saying life lived to the full.

Be Strong (Joshua) - Putting...

Warren W. Wiersbe

It can seem as though today's culture encourages weakness, not strength. And this attitude has crept into the church: Don't take a strong position of faith. Don't take a strong view of evangelism. Don't maintain strong moral values. Yet God's people are called to be soldiers, and to fight for His cause and kingdom. Based on the book of Joshua, Be Strong is an inspiring guide to pursuing a victorious life. 
Part of Dr. Warren W. Wiersbe's best-selling "BE" commentary series, Be Strong has now been updated with study questions and a new introduction by Ken Baugh. A respected pastor and Bible teacher, Dr. Wiersbe shares the need for strong, dedicated believers. You'll discover how to dodge defeat, pursue your purpose, and take hold of all God has in store for you.

Chad Veach

Say Good-bye to Stress and Burnout, and Hello to Peace and Purpose 
 
 
 
What comes to mind when you think about prayer? Does it feel like something for holy people but not for you? Or like a mystical experience you could never hope to achieve in real life? Or maybe just a boring duty with little payoff? 
 
 
 
In this book, author and pastor Chad Veach demystifies the concept of prayer by explaining in practical terms what prayer looks like in our day-to-day lives. It turns out, it's not hard! This passionate, personal approach to prayer removes the pressure to "pray right" and replaces it with the calm assurance that God wants to hear from us and respond to us in love. 
 
  
   
Along with building a case for the importance of prayer, Chad uses stories and compelling insights from the Bible to give practical advice for how to make your prayers more effective. He highlights where we can and should pray and offers tangible strategies to implement a praying lifestyle within the busyness of modern life. 
 
 
 
Prayer works! Here's how to connect with God just like He's always wanted.
