A New York Times Notable Book A Kirkus Reviews Best Book of 2012 A bold approach to understanding the American evangelical experience from an anthropological and psychological perspective by one of the country's most prominent anthropologists. Through a series of intimate, illuminating interviews with various members of the Vineyard, an evangelical church with hundreds of congregations across the country, Tanya Luhrmann leaps into the heart of evangelical faith. Combined with scientific research that studies the effect that intensely practiced prayer can have on the mind, When God Talks Back examines how normal, sensible people—from college students to accountants to housewives, all functioning perfectly well within our society—can attest to having the signs and wonders of the supernatural become as quotidian and as ordinary as laundry. Astute, sensitive, and extraordinarily measured in its approach to the interface between science and religion, Luhrmann's book is sure to generate as much conversation as it will praise.

As Bishop T. D. Jake's excellent book "Woman, Thou Are Loose!" emancipates women, so "Woman, God Made You a Queen for Life" elevates women to queenhood. This book was born from a series of messages that Pastor Ricks' taught in 2006. It is based on Genesis chapters one and two. Two remarkable themes throughout the book are: one, the bilateral essence of women and its implications, and two, the dual purpose for the umbilical cord. It is not only for women but also for men. Men will find it helpful in gaining a better understanding of the women in their lives. Many will identify with the candid testimonies. They will make some laugh, some cry, some feel guilty, and some may become angry. My prayer is for each reader to find help and healing, to acquire new skills, in order to be an over comer in God's kingdom. May you glorify God for whatever is accomplished through this book. AMEN! _________________ Pastor Eric F. Ricks is a native of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. In 1972, Minister Ricks started the Deliverance Evangelistic Church of Burlington, New Jersey, (known as Faith Deliverance Worship Center, Inc.). To date, he has been pastoring for 38 years. He has been happily married to his queen, Minister Vernell Ricks since 1962. One of his life's declarations is Proverbs 3:5-7, "Trust in the Lord with all your heart; and lean not to your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will direct your paths. Be not wise in your own eyes: fear the Lord, and depart from evil." _________________
