Book Description
She was born in Autauga County, Alabama, on a rainy Tuesday afternoon. At a young age, subjected to a hostile childhood, author K. Roy Winstead would hide in a makeshift wooden tree house. It was there in that pear tree that she would talk and sing to Jesus, trying to make sense of things. Somehow, she believed that Jesus was like an imaginary friend. Only he was real and could hear her. There in that tree house was the beginning of her relationship with God. Follow the author as she takes you on a spiritual adventure through the abounding highs and abasing lows of her life. Beginning from the great and terrible day that she drowned as a little girl, you'll see the impossible turn to possible. From heart wrenching tales of being a pregnant teen rescued by an angel to everything in between. Ranging from a vision dream that conquered thoughts of suicide, miraculous protection from harm when in danger, and answered prayer that found love and sustained it. You'll witness Jesus at work. Taking a final stop, you will taste of delicious mysteries how God can terminate a foreclosure, help you start a business, and even cure cancer. With eager anticipation, you will gaze into the window of an ordinary country girl's life celebrating her victories alongside her. Victories undeniably that could only be orchestrated by the wondrous works of God. While joyfully having your spirits lifted, making you laugh, and bringing hope to your life. It is the author's wish that your imagination will taste of sweet Southern food for the soul consisting of beer, biscuits, and belief. Belief in Jesus!

Book Description
In his final speech “I've Been to the Mountaintop,” Martin Luther King Jr. delivered his support of African American garbage workers on strike in Memphis. Although some consider this oration King's finest, it is mainly known for its concluding two minutes, wherein King compares himself to Moses and seems to predict his own assassination. But King gave an hour-long speech, and the concluding segment can only be understood in relation to the whole. King scholars generally focus on his theology, not his relation to the Bible or the circumstance of a Baptist speaking in a Pentecostal setting. Even though King cited and explicated the Bible in hundreds of speeches and sermons, Martin Luther King's Biblical Epic is the first book to analyze his approach to the Bible and its importance to his rhetoric and persuasiveness. Martin Luther King's Biblical Epic argues that King challenged dominant Christian supersessionist conceptions of Judaism in favor of a Christianity that affirms Judaism as its wellspring. In his final speech, King implicitly but strongly argues that one can grasp Jesus only by first grasping Moses and the Hebrew prophets. This book also traces the roots of King's speech to its Pentecostal setting and to the Pentecostals in his audience. In doing so, Miller puts forth the first scholarship to credit the mostly unknown, but brilliant African American architect who created the large yet compact church sanctuary, which made possible the unique connection between King and his audience on the night of his last speech.

Book Description
Randall Balmer's Mine Eyes Have Seen the Glory is an insightful and engaging journey into the world of conservative Christians in America. Originally published twenty-five years ago and the basis for an award-winning, three-part PBS documentary, this new edition is complete with a new chapter and an Afterword. In this immensely readable tour of the highways and byways of American evangelicalism, Balmer visits a revival meeting in Florida, an Indian reservation in the Dakotas, a trade show for Christian booksellers, and a fundamentalist Bible camp in the Adirondacks. Through the eyes of those that Balmer meets on his journeys, we arrive at a more accurate and balanced understanding of an abiding tradition that, as the author argues, is both rich in theological insights and mired in contradictions. Mine Eyes Have Seen the Glory offers readers a genuine insight into the appeal that the evangelical movement holds for thousands of Americans.
