From the Polepit to the Pulpit was birthed from traumatic experiences that guided the life and destiny of a young woman that would inevitably enslave her life to rejection, abuse, emotional and psychological death, but would later be resurrected by the Power of God. From the Polepit to the Pulpit reveals how God transformed a young woman who did not see herself as significant in the lives of others to a woman filled with passion, purpose, and exceeding potential. As a result of her resurrection, Racheemba has become a trailblazer in this generation, advocating for women who suffer from low-self-esteem, low-self-image and mental abuse. This book reveals the different circumstances that took place in her life as she encountered tremendous adversity and was defined by society as another statistic in the foster care system. But God saw in her what she could not see in herself and took what should have been her down fall and turned it into her uprising.In "From the Pole Pit to the Pulpit," you will be empowered to not see your situation as an obstacle, but as the vehicle that will catapult your life to complete wholeness that will supersede what you could have ever imagined for your life, ministry, family and your destiny. This book will prove to you that your life is not a mistake but a miracle that has been ordained to rescue the lives of others through the power of healing, deliverance and restoration. What you thought was "No Way Out," was God's plan of escape for you that took place at Calvary in way of the crucifixion of Jesus Christ from which you have been set free. Finally, you will discover the "You" that God has created and put here on earth to serve as a conduit to bring Glory and Honor to his name.

My parents love their pastor, but they rarely get much from his sermons. Sound familiar? Why live with word salad, rabbit trails and bouncing around like a ball in a pin ball machine when you can work smarter, not harder. Frank pastors a country church. His positive attitude and effective preaching create an air of expectation for something great each week. As a multi-vocational pastor he rarely experiences the Saturday night panic and arrives at the pulpit ready to preach. George, a loner, also pastors a country church. The services are lack luster, he is approaching burn out and he questions his call to a pulpit ministry. George just toughs it out thinking it to be more godly. Saturday night is repetitively panic time and Sunday often brings excuses. George does not understand that he might need more preparation than does his sermons. What makes the difference? Frank recognized his need for help, and found a mentor. He learned to establish the purpose of the sermon first, match it with divine inspiration and have others help gather materials. This reduced preparation time, balanced his work schedule, family time, self-care and sermon preparation. By working on his illustrations and delivery, he could take a lesser quality sermon and turn it into a great event.

HIS FIRST SERMONS were preached in 1930 as a five-year-old standing on a kitchen chair after a service in a little church in Estevan, Saskatchewan. And following his conversion as a sixteen-year-old, Donald N. Bastian would go on to become a well-known and much-loved preacher in pulpits both local and international. Now, as a ninety-five-year-old, he looks back on a life that was a rich blend of: FAMILY LIFE — growing up in the home of English immigrants from Lancashire; meeting the love of his life, Kathleen Swallow, while in school in Ontario; and welcoming four children into the world. FAITH — becoming aware during his teenage years of a call to full-time ministry; ministering as a song evangelist, initially as a hitchhiker across the Canadian prairies; and studying at four church-related schools after dropping out of high school at age sixteen. AND MINISTRY — pastoring a church in Lexington, Kentucky, while a student at Asbury Theological Seminary; building strong congregations at churches in New Westminster, British Columbia, and Greenville, Illinois; overseeing pastors as a bishop in the United States in Canada; and writing four previous books. By turns touching, revealing, inspiring, and entertaining, FROM KITCHEN CHAIR TO PULPIT is a rare look at just how extraordinary the pastoral life can be.

A personal testimonial of a person who has experienced many things in the local church while growing in the knowledge of God. This includes personal revelations from the Lord. I recommend this book to anyone who feels a calling to obey the Master's voice and experience the life from behind the pulpit.
