Book Description
On the streets of Los Angeles, every five-mile radius has its own Superfly, and Bruce Henderson was The Fly of his. At the top of his game back in the day, he knew only free-flowing cash, hip cribs, a cash-cow drug business, brand new cars every month (to scramble the cops off his trail), and wall to wall women. All was going well for Bruce and his pimpdom until one day when his mother gave him a little booklet that packed a big punch. He made the 'mistake' of reading it, and life as he knew it, was never again the same. With every turn of the page, Bruce falls deeper and deeper into a supernatural abyss that seemed to play for keeps. Something or someone meant to own him, consume him. The booklet proved to be his 'Jonah's whale.' It's a rare occasion, indeed, when the walls between this physical world melt away completely, in true Elijahesque-style, only to expose the very Creator. And for Bruce, there seemed to be no limits at all to what the Creator would show him, do for him or take him to! Today, at the touch of his hand, Bruce's healing ministry manifests in ways perhaps never seen before in the Continental U.S. Join Evangelist Bruce Henderson on his shocking, near-catastrophic induction into Christ and ultimate salvation. "Bravo!" raves everyone who's read his story!

Book Description
You can argue the point that a pimp is a criminal who is abusive in his dealings with people in general, and women in particular. On the other hand, a preacher is a man of God, kind and thoughtful of others. These men, while different in their goals, possess the same gifts and skills to achieve and perpetuate their agendas. You may not agree with (or even like) what will be revealed on the following pages, but if you?re honest with yourself, the ?light bulb? will come on.

Preacher, Or Ecclesiastical Pimp!
Author: Louis Timm's

Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 308
Book Description
If you are a minister, have a minister, know a minister or know someone else that has or knows a minister, this book is an absolute must read. Money and sex are two of the biggest culprits of our time and being in the church is no guarantee to immunity. The real names have been changed to protect the guilty and should the likeness of any character in this book appear to resemble any individual, it is purely intentional. True to form, I have deliberately resorted to the act of embellishment on certain factual like accounts in this book, purely for effect of it all. Dr. Timm's has written this book to let the children of God everywhere know that you are not alone and that the goings on at your local church is not an isolated incidence. Every church needs to have a Pastor/Minister, but know this, God has an all Seeing Eye and He has not forgotten about your plight. I dare you to stand still and see the salvation of the Lord, let Him fix it, wait on God, He will show up and He will definitely show out. Not only will we have to pay for our wrongdoings, but they that have pleasure in them will have a price to pay as well; "Thus saith the Lord" From the same author that brought us; "Little Miss Sanctified" and "Church-Folk Some Messed-Up-Folk"

The Problem with Preachers

Publisher: Dorrance Publishing
ISBN: 1646106210
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 202
Book Description
The Problem with Preachers: The Similitude of Preaching, Preying, and Pimping By: Dawud Aasiya-Bey Dawud Aasiya-Bey was born in Washington, D.C., and his parents relocated to Long Island, NY, when he was four years old. He grew up with three brothers in a town called Wyandanch in the town of Babylon. As a child, he attended a private, parochial middle school in Deer Park, NY, which had a church on the campus and this is where his first experience of attending mass occurred. He felt that the school was a strict environment because it seemed that minor infractions resulted in punishments that simply did not fit the wrongdoing. He envisioned church as a place where people would be friendly and kind, but such was not the case as sisters and fathers seemed to roam the school campus like their goal in life was to catch someone doing something wrong. Dawud now lives in Murrieta, California, with his wife and son, which is a small city about 60 miles north of San Diego. He is currently in the teaching vocation as a biology teacher and has been doing so for over sixteen years. Prior to teaching, he worked in the IT field, which was a volatile environment back in 2000 requiring “head-hunters” to find contractual B2B jobs, which were three to six months at best as outsourcing was the norm. Such instability introduced him to the teaching profession, as he was a substitute teacher between his IT contract jobs. His involvement in the church community as a musician (bassist) allows him to experience the church dynamic from a ‘musician for hire’ perspective while continuing his passion for playing music that centers on worship. Being behind the scenes and playing in ministries throughout the years has given him more insight as playing at churches, conferences, and gospel events allowed him to observe the networking, conversations, and sentiments that took place amongst ministries. He feels that the lifestyles and views of some preachers contradict what Jesus taught in the Bible.
