"In 1987, a group of Black men in the Baha'i Faith community got together to see how they could improve the plight of Black males in the United States. What resulted from this 12-person meeting was an atmosphere of prayer, love, and spirituality that became known as the Black Men's Gathering. What started with twelve participants soon grew in size to hundreds of Black men--both Baha'i and non-Baha'i--who were eager to participate in this spiritual awakening and to serve the Black community here in the United States and abroad. This book charts the progress of the Black Men's Gathering, from its humble beginnings in a hotel room in Greensboro, North Carolina; to larger meetings at the Louis Gregory Baha'i Institute in Hemingway, SC; to even larger gatherings at Green Acre Baha'i Center in Maine; to regional and local Gatherings across the nation. The final national Black Men's Gathering occurred in 2012, but its enduring spirit is felt today in the impact it made on devotional gatherings in the Baha'i community across the country and in the way it touched and forever transformed the lives of its participants"--

This compelling, story-driven message shows how those who persist through the burnout and valleys of the “middle” will find that miracles await them on the other side. If you've ever been on a long trip with small children, you've no doubt heard, "Are we there yet?" Maybe you've felt that same way as you have journeyed with God. It’s the midway point where most of us feel impatient and frustrated. It's also where our hidden doubts find their voice. Where most beginnings start with energy and expectation for all that is ahead, and endings bring the joy of completion as you arrive at your desired destination, the middle is different. This midpoint can too quickly become a low point, as energy is lacking and enthusiasm wanes. Yet how well you handle the middle reveals what is in the “middle” of you. The disciples found—in the middle of a lake—a revelation of Jesus that they had never seen on the shore. In the middle is where new navigational skills are found. It's also where some of the most significant lessons are learned. In Miracle in the Middle, you’ll learn how to: Candidly face the realities of life’s frustrations and respond to them biblically Persist in your efforts in your marriage, family, career, and ministry Navigate burnout during life’s valleys Gain eternal perspective on temporary situations Find strength in the struggle, passion to persist, wisdom in weariness, and joy for the journey.

"A timely and groundbreaking take on the roots of the Christian church and its place in the entirety of God's kingdom. . . . There is no better time than now to learn about and become firmly grounded within your spiritual heritage." —from the foreword by Perry Stone The early church was made up of Jewish and Gentile followers of Jesus, and the church's culture was rooted in Judaism and a Jewish understanding of God's relationship to His people. Over time, however, Christianity became increasingly more Roman than Jewish, and the church lost its identity. Rabbi Curt Landry's personal story is remarkably similar. Born to a Jewish mother and a Catholic father, Landry was put up for adoption, and for more than thirty years he had no understanding of his heritage, his roots, or who his parents were. But when he discovered the truth of his story, his life changed completely. The key to a life of power and purpose is understanding who you are. In this revelatory book, Curt Landry helps Christians discover their roots in Judaism, empowering them to walk in the revelation of who they really are and who they are born to be. Reclaiming Our Forgotten Heritage reveals the mysteries of the church, letting Christians grasp the power that comes from connecting with their true identity.
