Book Description
"Peter Clark's ministerial journey provides an in-depth understanding of the sacrifices and hardships faced by black Methodist preachers as they spread the gospel and expanded Methodism in the late nineteenth century and early twentieth century. It provides deep insight into the racial attitudes and economic conditions that prevailed in post-Reconstruction Louisiana." - Angella Current-Felder, author, Breaking Barriers: An African American Family & the Methodist Story "I could feel the story better than most because I had been down some of the same roads Peter Clark traveled, although a hundred years later and under more comfortable circumstances.'' - Rev. James L. Killen, Jr., author, Pastoral Care in the Small Membership Church "We sensed Peter Clark's strength and leadership throughout this very turbulent and racially charged time in our history.

Cindy Foster Serio, spiritual director and retreat leader, Mosaic Spiritual Formation Ministry "The information regarding tuberculosis is insightful. The biography walks the reader through some very important points and offers some food for thought on the thinking at the time and implications for the race, the individual and the family unit." - Dr. Lisa Armitige, medical consultant, Heartland National TB Center

Book Description
Children are miracles and mysteries. Before they are born, they are often given a first and last name, and relationships between parents and other family members are established. A value system is clearly reflected in the life of the child. The child must remember his/her roots and never turn his/her back on core values and principles affirmed by the teachings of Christ. The child must learn to be multifaceted and a multitasker. The qualifications of an individual are more important than the color of his/her skin. Never overlook giving back to the community; this feat enhances and enriches values in a human being.

Meeting at the Fires

Languages : en
Pages : 223
Book Description
Our lives will be pulled from the ashes many times, and those times will bring good purposes in our lives. Individualism and independence are at the heart of being American. There will always be many ambition- driven challenges, many events you will not foresee. You will handle some well and some badly. For there is no adequate preparation for all of life’s situations and relationships. There is no such thing as perfection when it comes to relationships that exist between people, especially the relationships between a man and woman. It is possible to have a good relationship with persons in your life, once you first have that relationship with yourself. But with the Creator’s help, you will prevail, you will not fail. We must open doors wide to let others in to learn and to mature. Our Creator will fix our hearts to become involved in reaching and bringing a lost world to Him.
