DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis book is designed to inform, enlighten, equip, and encourage servant-leaders and Christian workers who serve in the shadows of greatness in various forms of ministry to continue to serve with character, competence, commitment, and pride in the absence of accolades, appreciation, celebration, and recognition. The special ministries include Positive Youth Development for Boys and Young Men in At-Risk Situations, local church and faith-based organizations’ mission and outreach ministries, and especially a ministry in our nation’s jails and prisons. The motivation and inspiration for Part One of this book came through the author’s reflections of memorable life situations by several boys growing up on the south side of Chicago in the turbulent sixties and seventies who overcame tremendous odds for survival through their parallel faith journey and call to the ministry. It is designed to show how early foundation, formation, and understanding of character, civility, community, cooperation, coordination, competence, competition, and commitment can occur as young boys of color go from boys to men in the shadows of Berkeley Avenue in Chicago’s Kenwood-Oakland community. The motivation and inspiration for Part Two of this book are reflections of and learnings from evidence-based Christian Ministry in which the author has been engaged for nearly 50 years as a licentiate minister, 43 years as an ordained minister, 40 years as a Pastor and Teacher, and over 25 combined years as a Marion County, Indiana Commissioned Deputy Sheriff Jail Chaplain, Indiana and Louisiana State Prison Clinical Chaplain, Illinois State Director of Prison Fellowship Ministries, and 17 of those years as the Founder and former Executive Secretary (National Director) of the Prison Ministry and Criminal Justice Commission of the National Baptist Convention, USA, Inc., then representing 30,000 congregations, 61 State Conventions, and 7.5 million members.

When Virgil Deux loses his heart to the little alien diplomat marooned on his world, he never imagines she will lead him across the galaxy and into the maelstrom of political and mystical intrigues swirling at the end of the Second Galactic Age. An ancient god of Darkness has manipulated the great mortal empires of the galaxy to the brink of apocalypse, and only the Avatar of Light can prevent their ultimate annihilation. However, Virgil discovers that instead of a god, the Light has chosen his own fragile soul as its champion, and has compelled him to embark on an odyssey that takes him from Twinsun IV's crystalline Imperial Citadel to Nema's sanguinous capitol of Enirum, from Sodome's great city-state of Port Royal to General Gondaga's flying war metropolis, Vampyr - and finally to the very heart of the galaxy and the legendary treasure planet of Aura. There, with Councilor Aurelia and Captain Coreandra Flint beside him, he must pit his love against a faceless storm of evil to save all loving souls.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe idea of this women's magazine originated with Samuel Williams, a Cincinnati Methodist, who thought that Christian women needed a magazine less worldly than Godey's Lady's Book and Snowden's Lady's Companion. Written largely by ministers, this exceptionally well-printed little magazine contained well-written essays of a moral character, plenty of poetry, articles on historical and scientific matters, and book reviews. Among western writers were Alice Cary, who contributed over a hundred sketches and poems, her sister Phoebe Cary, Otway Curry, Moncure D. Conway, and Joshua R. Giddings; and New England contributors included Mrs. Lydia Sigourney, Hannah F. Gould, and Julia C.R Dorr. By 1851, each issue published a peice of music and two steel plates, usually landscapes or portraits. When Davis E. Clark took over the editorship in 1853, the magazine became brighter and attained a circulation of 40,000. Unlike his predecessors, Clark included fictional pieces and made the Repository a magazine for the whole family. After the war it began to decline and in 1876 was replaced by the National Repository. The Ladies' Repository was an excellent representative of the Methodist mind and heart. Its essays, sketches, and poems, its good steel engravings, and its moral tone gave it a charm all its own. -- Cf. American periodicals, 1741-1900.
