Paperback. Condición: Good. In these powerfully rendered, prizewinning stories, working-class African Americans across the South strive for meaning and search for direction in lives shaped by forces beyond their control. The ten stories in this resonant collection deal with both the ties that bind and the gulf that separates generations, from children confronting the fallibility of their own parents for the first time to adults finding themselves forced to start over again and again.In Highway 18 a young Jehovah's Witness going door to door with an expert field-service partner from up north is at a crossroads: will she go to college or continue to serve the church? If You Hit Randolph County, You've Gone Too Far tells of a family trying to make it through a tense celebratory dinner for a son just out on bail. And in the collection's title story, a young girl experiences loss for the first time in the fallout from her father's relationship with her babysitter. Startling, intimate, and prescient on their own, these stories build to a kaleidoscopic understanding of both the individual and the collective black experience over the last fifty years in the American South. With We Are Taking Only What We Need, Stephanie Powell Watts has crafted an incredibly assured and emotionally affecting meditation on everything from the large institutional forces to the small interpersonal moments that impress upon us and directour lives.--New Yorker.…

Condición: Good. Therefore go and make disciples (Matthew 28:19-20.) As Christians we are called to spread Christ's message of love to the world, but it's estimated that as many as 96% of churches do not have an identifiable witnessing plan in place to help people effectively and lovingly share God's message of hope with their friends and neighbors. Created from a strategy used by missionaries and native Christians in South America, Each One Win One offers everyone-laypeople as well as church leaders-a comprehensive strategy to not only win others but nurture and mentor them as they grow in their faith. This complete resource is designed to extend outside the walls of the local church and into the surrounding community and beyond through the power of relationship. Divided into three programs-Each One Win One, Big Brothers and Little Sisters, and Prayer Cells-it includes complete strategies, reproducible templates, sample brochures, certificates, checklists, student and leader's guides, and posters for each program, plus an inspiring and informational DVD (in English and Spanish) from coauthor Louie Bustle. Each One Win One is an excellent tool for planting churches and growing pastors and leaders and offers Christians the knowledge and direction needed to effectively win and disciple others for Christ.…

Paperback. Condición: Very Good. Poetry. DAYS LIKE THIS ARE NECESARY includes new poems as well as highlights from the 13-book career of Walter Bargen, first poet laureate of Missouri. Kevin Prufer writes in his foreword to the book, His work is technically sophisticated, rhythmically subtle, and emotionally complex, but--and here's the trick--it's also the kind of poetry that one might offer to someone who says he doesn't like poetry much, someone who says he doesn't get' poetry, someone who prefers mysteries or history books or biographies. In a perfect world, this book will go a long way toward bringing Walter Bargen's poetry to the much wider audience it deserves.…

Paperback. Condición: Good. Although many books have been written about the Colorado gold rush, this one concentrates on assessing the cataclysmic changes that it brought to the Great Plains. In addition, rather than casting the story in the usual terms of heartless aggressors and hapless victims, it supplies a large and insightful interpretation that at once softens and increases our understanding of the Anglo disruption of Plains Indian cultures. The book's lucid writing and extensive research give meaning to the frontier concept that has been lambasted for 30 years or more. West's story is a story of cultural revisions - and thus the imaginations and aspirations of many people. …

Paperback. Condición: Very Good. Many churches today are caught in the worship war. Services are split into styles--contemporary, traditional, liturgical. Discussions and sometimes arguments arise over whether or not to have a pulpit, use drums, sing hymns, or use movie clips for illustration. These varying styles and preferences have caused many to change churches or even skip worship all together. This division of the Body of Christ is a cause for great concern and is jeopardizing the true meaning of worship for future generations.In The Worship Plot, Dan Boone exposes the distorted motives of battling over worship styles. Instead, he attests we should strive to combine our diversity to celebrate our common story. Boone explains that worship is not about personal preference or platform performance. Worship flows from the heart of God through His Son and His Spirit. Worship invites us to step into this flowing stream of celebration, thanksgiving, and love--a stream that connects us to God and to each other. Boone encourages churches to use the differences of their people to tell and celebrate the story God has plotted for us--the unifying story of the love of Christ. He affirms that when we move through worship together, through specific stages that have been plotted out to follow, we can go out with blessing and boldness, empowered by grace--ready to serve the people of the world and share with them God's amazing story.…
