Florida Historical Society Charlton Tebeau Award University of Tampa College of Arts and Letters Outstanding Scholarship or Creative Work Award When recalling the roots of soul music, most people are likely to name Memphis, Detroit, New Orleans, Muscle Shoals, or Macon. But Florida also has a rich soul music history—an important cultural legacy that has often gone unrecognized. Florida Soul celebrates great artists of the Sunshine State who produced some of the most electric, emotive soul music America has ever heard. This book tells the story of Ray Charles’s musical upbringing in Florida, where he wrote his first songs and made his first recordings. It highlights the careers of Pensacola singers James and Bobby Purify and their producer, Papa Don Schroeder. Florida Soul reveals how Hank Ballard created his international hit song "The Twist" after seeing the dance in Tampa and profiles Gainesville singer Linda Lyndell ("What a Man"). Miami’s Overtown and Liberty City neighborhoods produced Sam Moore of the legendary duo Sam and Dave, Willie Clarke and Johnny Pearsall of Deep City Records, and singer Helene Smith. Miami was also the longtime headquarters of Henry Stone, whose influential company T.K. Productions put out hits by Timmy Thomas, Latimore, Betty Wright, and KC and the Sunshine Band. Stone’s artists and distribution deals influenced charts and radio airplay across the world. Born in the era of segregation with origins in gospel, rhythm and blues, and jazz and reaching maturity during the civil rights movement, soul music is still enjoyed today, still very much a part of our collective culture. John Capouya draws on extensive interviews with surviving musicians to re-create the excitement and honor the achievements of soul’s golden age, establishing Florida as one of the great soul music capitals of the United States.

Many people have asked themselves, What is my hearts desire? This question can be confusing. Perhaps you arrived at a point when you felt confident in what your hearts desire looked like. You may have even started making the choice to go after it, whatever it is, only to have something get in your way, maybe more than once. This barrier that always seems to pop up may have manifested as fear, either your own or that of a loved one, that pulled you away from your decision. This fear of the unknown may have forced you to stay in your current situation. No matter how this barrier manifested, it seemed to get in your way every time. Now, some people may believe this interference is a sign from the utmost. Or perhaps they believe that, by staying in their current situation, they will find a new happiness that will lead to contentment. So which is the true hearts desire? The answer is simple: Its the one that, when you see yourself obtaining it, gives you the most joy and happiness. Its the one that makes your heart race.

We're all searching for something to last. We live our lives ever reaching for the next bar, meeting that right person, getting the perfect job, doing what we can do to make our lives what we think it should be. If you're a believer in Christ, then you pray and you ask favors, requests whatever you want to call them but they are a way of reaching out to the greater power that we do not possess. You may have been the victim of child abuse, a personal crime, a vendetta, or the perpetrator. You have been asking and praying for an answer or miracle to your need and relief from the burden you carry. What we forget is in order to receive from God, we must receive what he gives. Sometimes it isn't what we asked or prayed for, but it's an answer. This book is titled When Your Mind Steals Your Soul's Reward. It is meant as a message, that in order to receive, you must first think it possible. With the power of life and death being in the tongue, speak it! You must speak into your life what you hope and pray for. Faith is believing in the things that are hoped for and the evidence of things not seen. This is putting your faith into action. You must first think it, speak it, expect it just as Jesus said believe when you pray though your father has already given you what you asked for. The messages and very deep and personal accounts during Carol's life shared in this book are meant to enlighten, encourage, and strengthen your ability to receive God's amazing gifts and miracles through the power of words. God's abilities are not limited by our faith however. We do limit ourselves by our own spoken words of failure, fear, and felt circumstances. So often we are defeated before ever given the opportunity to see God's plan revealed by the words we speak, therefore directing the path of decisions made. This book is to be read with an open heart and praying throughout that God give you discernment and wisdom as you read as well as the ability to keep going, it will be painful at times. I believe with all my heart you will see miracles you have prayed for and know it is God and God only who is able to release them to you. It will be because you are finally able to receive through the knowledge of the power of your spoken words. So, go now in the power of his might and seek him so that you may have ears to hear and eyes to see as he leads you in this endeavor. In any offences at the truths shared in this book apologies first. Led as I am, it is all 100 percent the undeniable truth as seen through my eyes in this journey we call life.

You can accomplish anything you want in your life. You are SO much more than you may ever have believed, or thought possible. We all have incredible potential, but we get stuck when our early experiences create subconscious programs, limiting beliefs, self-judgments, and emotional triggers. All these things hold us back. We get stuck in negative patterning – in our relationships, work, finances – and in our life, in general. It’s said that the subconscious occupies ninety-five percent of our mind, versus only five percent for the conscious part. So, which of the two do you think is holding you back from everything you want in your life? In A Soul’s Perspective – How to Finally Heal and Transform Your Life, Dwight Dale Miller shares many of his crucial life events, the lessons he learned from them, and how he overcame their effects to transform his own life. As you read this perceptive book, you too will learn to see life from a soul’s perspective. You’ll gain insight into how powerful you truly are, how to access that power, and how your emotions and inner programs are holding you down. You’ll learn why we attract certain experiences and patterns – and how we can break free of the ones that don’t serve us. Most of all, you’ll learn how life actually works. A Soul’s Perspective – How to Finally Heal and Transform Your Life shows that as our awareness improves and we let go of everything that has been holding us back, we are finally able to heal, break free from patterns, manifest what we desire, live our purpose, feel healthy and vibrant, and – possibly for the first time ever – become more happy, joyful, and fulfilled.

The sisters of the Yada Yada Prayer Group are learning how to be real—with each other and with God. After a particularly exhausting year with the Yada Yada Prayer Group, all Jodi Baxter wants is a break. She even asks God for a little “dull and boring” in the new year. Instead she finds that when you’re open to His plans, life is unpredictable—in the best and hardest ways. Jodi’s life is suddenly full of changes, and they can be described as anything but boring. Out of all the Yada Yadas, God has Leslie “Stu” Stuart move into the Baxter’s upstairs flat, which requires a lot of patience—and tongue-biting—on Jodi’s part. She’s continually unnerved by guilt stemming from the accident and dreads the day when she comes face-to-face with Hakim’s mother. Plus, Bandana Woman, who was safely locked up in prison, has returned. Phew! Through prayer and friendship, the Yada Yadas are getting real. Dull and boring? Not a chance.
