Whether you are a new believer or have been a Christian for many years, mytwocents is designed to assist you in your walk with Christ. One of the indispensable keys to spiritual growth is time spent studying the Bible. Scripture gives us sound instruction on how to live our lives, as well as how to enjoy the love, joy, and peace that come from a personal relationship with Jesus. Section 1: "It was for freedom that Christ set us free!" This is Paul's declaration in this most important of New Testament letters. Galatians is a look at how we are now justified by faith in the finished work of Christ on the cross and not by works. This new covenant brings freedom, joy, and spiritual fruit as we live our lives in the power of the Spirit of God. Section 2: We do not have the music, but the lyrics have been preserved. Psalms is a collection of songs written by a variety of authors revealing the character and nature of God. These "God songs" can assist us in drawing near to Him as we focus on His goodness, protection, and provision. Spending time in the Psalms can act as a catalyst in bringing healing and restoration back into our lives. This book can be used as a personal, daily devotional or a group Bible study. Whether it is the examination of one specific passage or a walk-through an entire book of the Bible, these studies will bring biblical insight, allowing for a deeper understanding of God's Word. May God richly bless you as you make the study of Scripture a priority in your life!

In Twenty-Two Cents an Hour, Doug Crandell uncovers the harsh reality of people with disabilities in the United States who are forced to work in unethical conditions for subminimum wages with little or no opportunity to advocate for themselves, while wealthy CEOs grow even wealthier as a direct result. As recently as 2016, the United States Congress enacted bipartisan legislation which continued to allow workers with disabilities to legally be paid far lower than the federal minimum wage. Drawing on ongoing federal Department of Justice lawsuits, the horrifying story of Henry's Turkey Farm in Iowa, and more, Crandell shows the history of the policies that have led to these unjust outcomes, examines who benefits from this legislation, and asks important questions about the rise of a disability industrial complex. Exposing this complex—which is rooted in profit, lobbying, and playing on the emotions of workers' parents and families, as well as the public—Crandell challenges readers to reexamine how we treat some of our most vulnerable fellow citizens. Twenty-Two Cents an Hour forces the reader to face the reality of this exploitation, and builds the framework needed for reform.

Much of what we see expressed in the church today is built on more than just the New Testament. It's built mostly on the Old Testament, Church culture, and Paganism. If we are to succeed in making disciples of all nations then we must go back to the "template" we find in the Bible. Let the reformation begin!
