From the Polepit to the Pulpit was birthed from traumatic experiences that guided the life and destiny of a young woman that would inevitably enslave her life to rejection, abuse, emotional and psychological death, but would later be resurrected by the Power of God. From the Polepit to the Pulpit reveals how God transformed a young woman who did not see herself as significant in the lives of others to a woman filled with passion, purpose, and exceeding potential. As a result of her resurrection, Racheemba has become a trailblazer in this generation, advocating for women who suffer from low-self-esteem, low-self-image and mental abuse. This book reveals the different circumstances that took place in her life as she encountered tremendous adversity and was defined by society as another statistic in the foster care system. But God saw in her what she could not see in herself and took what should have been her down fall and turned it into her uprising.In "From the Pole Pit to the Pulpit," you will be empowered to not see your situation as an obstacle, but as the vehicle that will catapult your life to complete wholeness that will supersede what you could have ever imagined for your life, ministry, family and your destiny. This book will prove to you that your life is not a mistake but a miracle that has been ordained to rescue the lives of others through the power of healing, deliverance and restoration. What you thought was "No Way Out," was God's plan of escape for you that took place at Calvary in way of the crucifixion of Jesus Christ from which you have been set free. Finally, you will discover the "You" that God has created and put here on earth to serve as a conduit to bring Glory and Honor to his name.

The reign of Queen Mary is popularly remembered largely for her re-introduction of Catholicism into England, and especially for the persecution of Protestants, memorably described in John Foxe's Acts and Monuments. Mary's brief reign has often been treated as an aberrant interruption of England's march to triumphant Protestantism, a period of political sterility, foreign influence and religious repression rightly eclipsed by the happier reign of her more sympathetic half-sister, Elizabeth. In pursuit of a more balanced assessment of Mary's religious policies, this volume explores the theology, pastoral practice and ecclesiastical administration of the Church in England during her reign. Focusing on the neglected Catholic renaissance which she ushered in, the book traces its influences and emphases, its methods and its rationales - together the role of Philip's Spanish clergy and native English Catholics - in relation to the wider influence of the continental Counter Reformation and Mary's humanist learning. Measuring these issues against the reintroduction of papal authority into England, and the balance between persuasion and coercion used by the authorities to restore Catholic worship, the volume offers a more nuanced and balanced view of Mary's religious policies. Addressing such intriguing and under-researched matters from a variety of literary, political and theological perspectives, the essays in this volume cast new light, not only on Marian Catholicism, but also on the wider European religious picture.
