Kairos Awakening
Author: Stacey Brooks
Publisher: Gatekeeper Press
ISBN: 1662955405
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 180
Book Description
Trusting God’s timing brings peace and serves His ultimate purpose. Often, what appears as a setback or delay actually prepares us for something greater. As God works for us, He orchestrates events that always lead to a favorable outcome. God knows your current circumstances and all the challenges ahead. His plan is intricately woven into every aspect of your life, even when things seem uncertain. Whether you're seeking a deeper understanding of God's will, the courage to give up a harmful habit, or the capacity to stretch your faith, you'll see that in God's timing things become clearer. Faith in His process can lead to personal development and unexpected blessings. It can bring clarity and closure to past struggles, while opening new doors of opportunity in line with His complete plan. Trusting God's schedule empowers us to face life's uncertainties with confidence and peace. Kairos Awakening is a 60-day devotional that connects biblical principles and reinforces the importance of seizing each moment. Every message has a timeless theme centered on God’s redemptive love. It challenges both followers and seekers to embrace a more meaningful spiritual journey in the face of an imminent future. Readers are urged to know the signs of our changing world. These signs include increasing natural disasters, rapid technological advancements, social and political upheaval, and shifts in moral and cultural values. Additionally, global tensions and economic instability highlight the urgency of spiritual preparedness. Recognizing these changes helps us stay grounded in our faith, find purpose amidst chaos, and understand the importance of aligning our lives with God's will. My prayer is that these messages will help you find meaning and direction through a biblical lens. Each day presents a different opportunity to seek the Lord’s presence and hear the Spirit’s voice in these final hours. It emphasizes real topical issues relevant to everyday life, such as the need for repentance, the truth about hell, and the path to salvation. You are encouraged to share your insights with others. You are challenged to read and apply these principles to everyday life. You are invited to listen, discern, heed, and respond to the Lord's voice.

The New Blue Music
Author: Richard J. Ripani
Publisher: Univ. Press of Mississippi
ISBN: 1496801288
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 283
Book Description
Rhythm & blues emerged from the African American community in the late 1940s to become the driving force in American popular music over the next half-century. Although sometimes called “doo-wop,” “soul,” “funk,” “urban contemporary,” or “hip-hop,” R&B is actually an umbrella category that includes all of these styles and genres. It is in fact a modern-day incarnation of a musical tradition that stretches back to nineteenth-century America, and even further to African beginnings. The New Blue Music: Changes in Rhythm & Blues, 1950-1999 traces the development of R&B from 1950 to 1999 by closely analyzing the top twenty-five songs of each decade. The music of artists as wide-ranging as Louis Jordan; John Lee Hooker; Ray Charles; James Brown; Earth, Wind & Fire; Michael Jackson; Public Enemy; Mariah Carey; and Usher takes center stage as the author illustrates how R&B has not only retained its traditional core style, but has also experienced a “re-Africanization” over time. By investigating musical elements of form, style, and content in R&B—and offering numerous musical examples—the book shows the connection between R&B and other forms of American popular and religious music, such as spirituals, ragtime, blues, jazz, country, gospel, and rock 'n' roll. With this evidence in hand, the author hypothesizes the existence of an even larger musical “super-genre” which he labels “The New Blue Music.”
