As a servant leader, you will experience lightning wars because your commitment to follow Christ and love the people comes with a cost and that is, sharing your heart and spending much of your time with persons who do not really know you. Remember, the disciples did not fully understand the identity and mission of Jesus. The Holy Spirit constantly reminds me of this. They witnessed Jesus healing the sick and raising the dead, but they did not know Jesus. We have not healed the sick nor raised the dead. Therefore, we should not be surprised if people that we think would know our heart and spirit, do not.

What is theologically and homiletically happening in 'prophetic' sermons? This empirical theological study offers an analysis of the prophetic dimension in contemporary practices of preaching, including sermons from Bonhoeffer, King and Tutu, and from Dutch local contexts. After a phenomenological opening, five theological concepts are extracted from the studied sermons: exposing destructiva; interrupting dominant discourses; recognising the Word; overcoming destructiva; and edifying the congregation. In this study, prophetic speech is reconstructed as an illuminative interplay between epiphanic and inductive aspects.

In Still to Fight On, Dr. Quentin White proposes a ministry model for African American veterans in VA hospitals. Inspired by his service in the military, veteran’s hospital, and the African Methodist Episcopal Church, Dr. White offers a unique perspective on how to serve these veterans and by extension, all veterans in hospitals and religious settings. Using autobiographical, theological, biblical, historical, and practical resources, Dr. White suggests ways to break through the alienation, woundedness, suspicion, and mistrust of Black veterans toward the system, to deeper relationships with self, others and God. Still to Fight On is one veteran’s way of helping chaplains, counselors, ministers, veterans’ advocates, clinicians, and caregivers of Black veterans gain new insights on their work with Black veterans. In addition to veterans themselves, anyone who has a passion for the survival and wholeness of those who have worn their country’s uniform and, in some cases, carry the scars of battle, should welcome this resource.

For the believer who is serious about living in the fulness of God’s glory, and experiencing walking in the footsteps of God, this book may help you tremendously in seeing that glory manifested in you and around you. Are you yearning to tap into the profound power of God inside of you? Are you desperate in desiring to completely live inside of a peace that passes all understanding? If so, this book may be God’s message to you in how to relax and melt into it. You will learn in this book that faith is a lifestyle, and not just a vehicle for miracles to occur in your life. Faith is a lifestyle of rest and reliance on God to do everything He has promised for His children. Faith is not something that you work at having, it is a gift that you just relax and let “do its thing”. However, you may not have been taught to just relax and “let God”. If not, this will help you gain intellectual insight to facilitate spiritual release to walk in heavenly places in Christ Jesus. Faith empowers you, but what does that look like? Faith emboldens you, but how will you know it? Faith relaxes you, but how do you rest in it? Faith molds you, but who and what are you becoming? This book will help you with scriptural answers to these questions.

Each early June the world's toughest mountain bike race kicks off from Banff Canada. The race course follows dirt roads, muddy tracks, and snow covered mountains along the Continental Divide to the Mexican border, some 2,750 miles in total. This race, this cannonball run of pain, is called the Tour Divide and is unique in the world of sport: the clock never stops and no outside support is allowed. The Cordillera is the journal of the Tour Divide. The Cordillera is about things that break - broken bodies, broken bikes, broken spirits. Between these covers are people at their lowest, their most physically and emotionally depleted. Volume 6 of The Cordillera describes the 2014 race. But as always, the Cordillera is about focusing and getting on with the job of trying to reach Antelope Wells. The common thread to all stories is the incredible strength of the human spirit, and what can be achieved if we really try.

In How I Discovered My Mother Was A Goddess, Beverly Charles, tells the poignant story of aging and dementia from the point of view of both the parent and child. At some times troubling and other times darkly comic, it provides a vision of a spiritual journey, one that is healing, authentic, and satisfying. In addition to offering us the story of a mother and daughter as they struggle with old age and death, Beverly moves more deeply into the psyche to understand the goddesses at work in herself and her mother during the various phases of life. We journey through the author's and her mother's relationship to each other and to eight goddesses - Artemis, Hestia, Aphrodite, Athena, Demeter, Persephone, Hera, and Mary. By taking us on this odyssey with her, she not only deepens our understanding of the feminine and the goddesses that personify it, but reveals how these goddesses manifest in everyday life. This story enhances our understanding of the divine feminine. This book is for all those who have loved ones experiencing any form of dementia - as our intellectual connection diminishes, may we become more connected in our hearts. This book is also for women and the men who love them - may we never be ashamed of the journey that brings us home to the goddess within.
