Book Description
Say It! A Celebration of Expository Preaching in the African American Tradition argues that Biblical Exposition is most dynamic when coupled with the African American preaching tradition. Charlie Dates, Romell Williams, George Parks, Jr., Terry D. Streeter and a cast of pastors and preaching professors collaborate to demonstrate the power of exposition in the cradle of the Black pulpit. The contributors in this volume give examples of African American Biblical exposition in every section of the Old Testament and New Testament. They also explain how to preach from narrative, poetical, prophetic, epistolary, and apocalyptic genres throughout the Scriptures. This important and powerful resource celebrates the faithful, biblical preaching of African Americans that is so often overlooked because it's stylistically different than the style of most white preachers. Appropriate for training associate ministers or use as a textbook in homiletics, Say It! will give the preacher what is needed to speak to real life from every page of the Book!

Book Description
The elders in Jamaica sometimes use phrases or sentences they believe reflect a situation, or serve to caution the younger generation or old, unaware individuals. Many of these phrases or sentences may be used as words of inspiration and often allow for introspection and generate changes through behavioral modification. These are adages inherently uttered in the Jamaican dialect, some of which have been included and translated here into standard English by the author. This ensures a sense of clarity for non-Jamaicans and Jamaicans who aren’t as familiar to the indigenous dialect. The author’s main aim is to reach persons who are not Jamaicans, who would love to understand the meaning of words uttered in the Jamaican dialect, patois. The author also aims to facilitate inspiration, “social cautions,” and self-evaluation through each page of this book, with images included that somewhat reflect the message of each proverb. As such, the English version of each proverb is included, along with the proverb’s meaning. The images included should enhance clarity, especially for non-Jamaicans. The lyrics of the Jamaican National Anthem and Pledge have also been included to extend an understanding of the Jamaican culture and indicate what may be considered Jamaicanism. As a Jamaican, the author would like to operationally define Jamaicanism as the total quality management (TQM) of the Jamaican culture to present the best—as there is only the best—to the outside world, wrapped in the reality of diversity “out of many one people” (the Jamaican motto). The author’s interaction with people from other cultures exposed the sincere interest that others have in the language and subsequent accent of the Jamaican people. This fact is one of the inspirations for this book, as people from other cultures often prompt continuous utterance of the Jamaican dialect to indulge their ears in the melody of the English language in Jamaican tone. In addition, it is important for these proverbs to be used as empowerment, as cautionary sayings, and guiding tools for readers. With that in mind, a blank page is provided after each proverb to facilitate personal reflection and empowerment. The author would like readers to take away the message of caution and become empowered through proverbs and expressions of the elders. The book’s main idea is to convey the linguistic cultural awareness of the Jamaican people to the rest of the world and offer the elements of this awareness as empowerment, caution, and therapy to the Jamaican people and others around the world. It is suggested that this book would be an excellent gift for friends, employees, family, and associates outside Jamaica, or citizens and residents of other nations who are living in Jamaica. It is also a book for all Jamaicans, as it can impact morals and ensure cautions for life. It is important to use these proverbs in a therapeutic way, as they have benefits beyond semantics

Book Description
Anancy stories were brought to Jamaica by the Ashanti people who passsed them from generation to generation. Brother Anancy is a symbolic testament of resistance by Jamaica's African forefathers who, resisted physical, mental, emotional and cultural enslavement by, at first, the Spanish, followed by the English. The protagonist of these stories takes the form of a cunning spider who examines relationships between the powerful and powerless. The stories are the cornerstone of Jamaican culture. In this text, Brother Anancy visits England's House of Commons at Westminster, London. He finds himself embroiled in the Brexit Crisis of early 2019. The stories cover a plethora of themes, from elderly abuse to AIDS, as well as, other pressing post-modernist issues.
