But when her old crush, the impossibly handsome and impossibly unattainable Sawyer Raines, comes back to town to direct her community play, Brynn finds herself determined to be the glamorous girl she knows he'd want, not the shy girl he doesn't even recognize. Good thing she's an excellent actress. After his bad breakup in NYC, the last thing Sawyer wants is to get involved with another actress. But the poised and beautiful Brynn draws him in, even though as her director, he knows she's off-limits. The few glimpses he gets of the goofy, carefree Brynn just makes her feel...familiar.

Holy Mavericks
Author: Phillip Luke Sinitiere
Publisher: NYU Press
ISBN: 0814752454
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 208
Book Description
Joel Osteen, Paula White, T. D. Jakes, Rick Warren, and Brian McLaren pastor some the largest churches in the nation, lead vast spiritual networks, write best-selling books, and are among the most influential preachers in American Protestantism today. Spurred by the phenomenal appeal of these religious innovators, sociologist Shayne Lee and historian Phillip Luke Sinitiere investigate how they operate and how their style of religious expression fits into America’s cultural landscape. Drawing from the theory of religious economy, the authors offer new perspectives on evangelical leadership and key insights into why some religious movements thrive while others decline. Holy Mavericks provides a useful overview of contemporary evangelicalism while emphasizing the importance of "supply-side thinking" in understanding shifts in American religion. It reveals how the Christian world hosts a culture of celebrity very similar to the secular realm, particularly in terms of marketing, branding, and publicity. Holy Mavericks reaffirms that religion is always in conversation with the larger society in which it is embedded, and that it is imperative to understand how those religious suppliers who are able to change with the times will outlast those who are not.

T.D. Jakes
Author: Shayne Lee
Publisher: NYU Press
ISBN: 0814752241
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 214
Book Description
Examines the rise of one of the most prolific spiritual leader of modern times T.D. Jakes has emerged as one of the most prolific spiritual leaders of our time. He is pastor of one of the largest churches in the country, CEO of a multimillion dollar empire, the host of a television program, author of a dozen bestsellers, and the producer of two Grammy Award-nominated CDs and three critically acclaimed plays. In 2001 Time magazine featured Jakes on the cover and asked: Is Jakes the next Billy Graham? T.D. Jakes draws on extensive research, including interviews with numerous friends and colleagues of Jakes, to examine both Jakes’s rise to prominence and proliferation of a faith industry bent on producing spiritual commodities for mass consumption. Lee frames Jakes and his success as a metaphor for changes in the Black Church and American Protestantism more broadly, looking at the ramifications of his rise—and the rise of similar preachers—for the way in which religion is practiced in this country, how social issues are confronted or ignored, and what is distinctly “American” about Jakes's emergence. While offering elements of biography, the work also seeks to shed light on important aspects of the contemporary American and African American religious experience. Lee contends that Jakes’s widespread success symbolizes a religious realignment in which mainline churches nationwide are in decline, while innovative churches are experiencing phenomenal growth. He emphasizes the “American-ness” of Jakes’s story and reveals how preachers like Jakes are drawing followers by delivering therapeutic and transformative messages and providing spiritual commodities that are more in tune with postmodern sensibilities. As the first work to critically examine Bishop Jakes’s life and message, T.D. Jakes is an important contribution to contemporary American religion as well as popular culture.

The Manikin Jesus
Author: Thomas E. Martin
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1413471897
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 165
Book Description
The purpose of this book is to reveal to the reader, the difference between the true called out ones of God, and the false ones that say they are called of God but are not. The destiny of our future is too important for us to allow false leaders that can be identified to entice us to follow a manikin Jesus. "That which is born of the flesh, is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit, is spirit", (Jn.3:6). "It is the Holy Spirit that quickeneth, (performs the new birth and reveals spiritual truth), the flesh, (unspiritual people without Holy Spirit witness) profiteth nothing: (nothing for the kingdom of Christ). The words that I speak unto you, (said Jesus), they are spirit and they are life", (Jn.6:36) par. To those who hunger and thirst to dwell in and to be led by the Holy Spirit, and who really yearn to know the real living Jesus of Nazareth, will find this book to be a great treasure and window that opens the mind to Biblical truths that are a mystery to multitudes. But to the critic, this book will be no more to them than any other book that reveals truth to the soul. And to self blinded unspiritual church leaders, this book will only shame them.
