Book Description
Jubilee "Jubi" Stone was a long-awaited gift from God to her now aging parents, James and Esther Stone. However, by the time their "gift" reaches her teens, a total disconnect between the generations creates a poisonous wound in their relationship. A toxic mixture of false pride, denial, and sexual abuse stand as the cause. Nineteen-year-old Jubi rebels and spirals into a desperate hell of drug abuse and prostitution, but she is a gifted songbird, and her destiny holds fame, fortune, and a rich legacy—if she can get there. The devil knows it. He's set to help Jubi destroy herself before she turns twenty. Esther Stone's only hold on her child—and the only road to this family's healing—is prayer. When Jubi finds herself on the altar of the Forest Unity Church of Baltimore, she's secured in the embrace of the Reverend Charles A. Wicker, praying for her salvation. The next moments prove crucial because for Jubi, her parents, and the devil, time is running out. On that unforgettable Sunday morning, someone will die and someone will live.

The Tenth Amendment and State Sovereignty
Author: Mark Robert Killenbeck
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield
ISBN: 9780742518803
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 214
Book Description
In the wake of the 2000 Election, the relationship between the Supreme Court and the American states has become more important. Once derided by the Supreme Court as a 'truism, ' the Tenth Amendment has in recent years been transformed from a neglected provision into a vital 'first principle.' As such, it has provided the foundation for a series of decisions in which the Supreme Court has elevated the status of the states, often at the expense of federal power and in the face of previously settled assumptions. In this important volume, four prominent scholars--two historians and two law professors--examine carefully one of the central tenets in the Supreme Court's recent Tenth Amendment jurisprudence: the assumption that the results fashioned by a narrow majority are compelled by history and consistent with the intentions of the framers. They shed important new light on a series of decisions that mark a major change in our thinking about the nature of a constitutional system within which both the federal government and the states properly regard themselves as sovereign entities.
