Book Description
Paul proclaimed he was in prison because he was Christ's prisoner. Why? Because he proclaimed the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ uncompromisingly without fear of retribution. He served the living Christ and succumbed neither to the wiles of Satan nor to the demands of the secular world. He gives all the glory to God and in so doing proclaims: the grace of God; knowledge in the mystery of Christ, as it is now revealed unto his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit; that the Gentiles should be fellow heirs, . . . and partakers of his promise in Christ by the gospel. He became Christ's minister by God's grace and His effective power working in him. God does this to enlighten and to strengthen each individual professing faith in Christ and endeavoring to walk with Jesus along life's pathway while enjoying blessings and gifts, as well enduring trials, tests, and temptations. Paul was the ultimate pastor and teacher in expounding Christ's teachings. He was a God server, not a man server. May those who preach and teach follow in Paul's footsteps by proclaiming God's entire Word faithfully.

Book Description
This is the true story of a young boy who grew up with a deep desire for love and acceptance. Instead he was harshly abused and mistreated by his alcoholic preacher father and older brother. He grew into a violent man whose life consisted of fights, and scrapes with law enforcement. He learned to run when things got really tough. Often, he sought the will of God for his life, rising from being a victim to an overcomer several times, however drugs and alcohol always pulled him back down. He had a beautiful wife and children that he loved dearly, but when things got tough, he'd walk away into the ready arms of alcohol and other women. This would be his undoing. Finally, one day in 1984, a shootout left a man dead and him in the county jail on a murder charge. Thinking his life was over, he attempted to end his life, but two ministers of God felt led to pray with him, thus preventing his death. Finally, in an honest attempt to be set free from his guilt and pain, he cried out to God, and God saved him and set him free. He found that God was not finished with him and discovered his life had just begun. This story is a must read for evangelical use or prison ministry, for it points those who are going astray including those already in jails or prisons to the cross of Calvary and to a loving, forgiving Savior who will set them free too. Jimmy Windham has been in a maximum-security prison in the South Carolina prison system for over 34 years. Though his life and testimony have won many men to Christ; he still requests prayers for the strength of Christ in his everyday life. Bro. Jimmy is still in prison, but by God's anointing on his life, he is standing in faith and still testifying of God's delivering power over sin and brokenness.

Book Description
Dear Friend, Greetings in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ from whom all blessing flow. My name is Joseph A. Broadway. I'm a born-again, bible-believing, and Spirit-filled Christian. It is my absolute pleasure to introduce to you what God has appointed, anointed, and ordained me to do. I've been given the great opportunity and privilege to bring to your attention the book that God has allowed me to write called Kingdom Business: Spiritual Poetry, Volume 1. This book is just the first edition of the many to follow hereafter. Kingdom Business is a spiritual poetry book that teaches us God's word through the form of poetry. Truly, I would not have been able to write this book without the direct divine impartation of the Most High God who is none other than the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen! God is not a traditional God; He is a diversified God that will use all forms of communication to connect with His people. First Corinthians 12:5""6 teaches us, "And there are differences of administrations, but the same Lord. And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God which worketh all in all." The Scriptures also teaches us in 1 Corinthians 12:18, "But now hath God set the members every one of them in the body, as it hath pleased him." Each and every one of us has received a gift(s) from God. I hope that this particular gift will serve God well and you. Church, it is my hope and prayer that you pick up a copy of Kingdom Business: Spiritual Poetry, Volume 1 either for yourself to get revitalized, empowered, and inspired through this form of ministry or purchase it as a gift for someone. In my opinion, it would be an absolute shame not to have this book in your library of inspirational reading materials. Enjoy in Jesus's name. Amen!

Book Description
A new, sociorhetorical interpretation of the Letter to Philemon Exploring Philemon shows how this letter entered the world of the ancient Mediterranean and the early church with a dramatic and powerful rhetorical force by analyzing the range of textures interwoven with each other to produce a profound effect on an early Christian (Philemon) and on the church that met in his home. It demonstrates that many striking and subtle features work together to present a rhetorical argument that the new Christian society must be one of freedom, brotherhood, and partnership not just for the powerful, but for all. Features: An analysis of the visual imagery of the letter Application of up-to-date rhetorical, sensory-aesthetic, and intertextual interpretive methods Use of Social and cultural, ideological, and theological strategies
