Book Description
As a pastor, I have seen that most believers have a strong desire to hear from the Lord, but many struggle in discerning His voice. I am certain that the most direct way that God communicates with us is through Scripture, yet many who seek to hear the Lord get discouraged with Bible reading. Ironically, this is the flaw in most devotional books. Readers hear the author's thoughts, which occasionally have little connection with the verse pasted at the top of the page. What is needed is a devotional guide that gives an example of how to listen for God's voice through a structured Bible reading plan. In 2018, I was counseling with a young man who was considering abandoning the Christian faith. I asked him if he was reading the Bible daily, and he stated that he was but that he did not get much from it. I gave him a specific challenge--continue reading the Bible daily, but text me a verse or two that spoke to him directly. He agreed, and together we began sharing daily verses with each other. Over time, we began to share not only the verses but what exactly the Lord said through those verses. Within two months, this young man renewed his commitment to Christ, and within six months, he became one of our young adult Bible teachers. Chairside Chats with God was birthed from these texts where I shared what God was saying to me through my daily Bible reading. These devotionals are built around the One Year Bible reading plan, but they could easily be altered to fit with any year-long Bible-reading schedule. This devotional is not intended as a substitute for reading Scripture. It is intended to show how God will speak by listening intently for His voice in His Written Word. I am confident that God will use this guide to help any believer grow in faith as he or she walks through the Bible.

The walk without limbs: Searching for indigenous health knowledge in a rural context in South Africa
Author: Gubela Mji
Publisher: AOSIS
ISBN: 1928523110
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 260
Book Description
In a country as diverse as South Africa, sickness and health often mean different things to different people so much so that the different health definitions and health belief models in the country seem to have a profound influence on the health-seeking behaviour of the people who are part of our vibrant, multicultural society. This book is concerned with the integration of indigenous health knowledge (IHK) into the current Western--orientated Primary Health Care (PHC) model. The first section of the book highlights the challenges facing the training of health professionals using a curriculum that is not drawing its knowledge base from the indigenous context and the people of that context. Such professionals will later recognise that they are walking without limbs in matters pertaining to health. The area that was chosen for conducting the research was KwaBomvana in Xhora (Elliotdale), Eastern Cape province, South Africa. The people who reside there are called AmaBomvana. The area where the Bomvana peoples reside is served by Madwaleni Hospital and eight surrounding clinics. Qualitative ethnographic, feminist methods of data collection supported the research done for Section 1 of the book. Section 2 comprises the translation and implementation of PhD study outcomes and had contributions from various researchers. In the critical research findings of the PhD study, older Xhosa women identify the inclusion of social determinants of health as vital to the health problems they managed within their homes. For them, each disease is linked to a social determinant of health, and the management of health problems includes the management of social determinants of health. For them, it is about the health of the home and not just about the management of disease. They believe that healthy homes make healthy villages, and that the prevention of the development of disease is related to the strengthening of the home. Health and illness should be seen within both physical and spiritual contexts; without health, there can be no progress in the home. When defining health, the older Xhosa women add three critical components to the WHO health definition, namely, food security, healthy children and families, and peace and security in their villages. Prof. Mji further proposes that these three elements should be included in the next revision of the WHO health definition because they are not only important for the Bomvana people where the research was conducted, but also for the rest of humanity. In light of the promise of National Health Insurance and the revitalisation of PHC, this book proposes that these two major national health policies should take cognisance of the IHK utilised by the older Xhosa women. In addtion to what this research implies, these policies should also take note of all IHK from the indigenous peoples of South Africa, Africa and the rest of the world, and that there should be a clear plan as to how the knowledge can be supported within a health care systems approach.

Book Description
This book is a mosaic of short stories told from many points of view that weave a larger tale about the fundamental connection between good and evil. The stories account the brotherly comradeship of Michael the Archangel and Lucifer prior to and despite Lucifer’s demise from the most perfect good to the most perfect evil. Once evil takes residence, the once creative rivalry between the two diverges into their covert use of human beings to harvest the souls of Earth. Since in this complex stealthy war there are multiple sides to every story, each chapter houses accounts from the supernatural point of view and the “day-in-the-life” point of view of human beings. Anyone that faces the trials and tribulations of today’s world understands how quickly good can bleed into evil or evil into good. This is a story about how we as human beings can be manipulated between the two by unseen forces.
