Book Description
Within the pages of this book, you will be introduced to three young ladies: Vanetta Scott, Ruth Hazelwood, and Keli Ramirez.

Their story will also show you how God has everything under control and that he has a designated time and place for all things, realizing dreams do not have to be deferred. You will journey with these ladies who have lived at their lowest of lows only to be lifted to an ultimate high.

Pages : 273
Book Description
If you think the streets are mean, meet Emme Vaughn, demon-huntress. She just wants a home, a hottie, and some kickin’ boots. Does she really have to fight the devil to get them? After the creep who’s married to her friend Kiki tries to assault her, Emme Vaughn finds herself in an all-night Walgreens at 3 a.m. with a quarter in her pocket and a rumble in her stomach. She sure does wish she’d gotten to eat her french fries before she had to kick and run. But God has his plan, and apparently tonight he means for her to whip some serious demon butt. Ever since her mom went crazy, Emme’s been wary of the gift they share for seeing demons, but she’s not about to let one get to her. So when an ugly beast lurks into Walgreens behind a dude who’s clearly up to no good, Emme tells it exactly where it can go. Problem is, the beautiful guy beside her at the magazine rack just helped her conquer the nasty duo, and now he wants her to join a group of demon-fighters led by an aging exorcist bombarded by requests to deliver people from evil. Shoot, and all she really hoped for was some breakfast.

Can a Sistah Get a Little Help?
Author: Teresa L Fry Brown
Publisher: The Pilgrim Press
ISBN: 0829821074
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 141
Book Description
"Can a Sistah Get a Little Help? Encouragement for Black Women in Ministry" focuses on how Black women can faithfully continue to navigate the internal and external challenges of ministry. Drawing from experiences throughout her twenty-two years in ordained ministry and as a seminary professor, Teresa L. Fry Brown asserts she has learned that with a set of cultural coping mechanisms and values, African American women can not only survive but thrive as leaders and mentors in spite of the brick ceiling. These coping mechanisms and values include survival skills; network and support systems; a work ethic; mentors and sponsors; a sense of self-worth and self-confidence; spiritual values; a balance in life; a leadership style; and acultural identity. In preparation for the book, Brown spoke with approximately 200 ordained and 450 laywomen in ministry about the issues most relevant to them. Here, in the form of remembrances, vignettes, and discussions, and interwoven with common concerns raised by these women, she shares the lessons learned and to be learned during a journey to self-empowerment in ministry.

Essential Guide for Sistahs of Zion (EGSZ)
Author: Akua Yah
Publisher: Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.
ISBN: 1645158993
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 93
Book Description
Spirituality is the human capacity to know YAH and experience YAH and the degree to which you reflect that knowledge and experience. To say you are spiritual and know that God is love, life, and light and when people encounter you and there is no love, life, and light, then how can you call yourself spiritual? No one but YAH can see what is in your heart, but we can judge the fruit of our tree. We can teach about how we should represent Christ on the outside from his word, but we cannot judge anyone who does not follow his word if we are not following it ourselves. YAHUSHA HA'MASHIACH (Jesus the Messiah) is coming back for a redeemed church-his bride-that he himself has washed clean and purchased through his sacrifice on the cross. We have to work on the inside and outside to truly reflect his nature and be that glorious bride.
