Book Description
With our children almost all raised, I asked God how, in the second phase of our life, we could be a tool for His service. I was not prepared for His answer and the plans He had for us. Whenever you hear God speak to you and you know you are doing exactly what God is telling you to do, satan will be right there to try to make you stop. This is a true story of the many trials and miracles we endured as God unfolded the plans He had for us. This is God's story for without Him this book would not have been written. From the very beginning in Matthew 6:9-13 when God taught us how to pray, right up to the end in the courtroom when we literally felt the breath of the Holy Spirit. I am honored and humbly grateful to have been chosen to be His tool and my prayer is that we can continue serving our Lord as he continues to unfold the plans he has for us.

The Master Plan
Author: Chris Wilson
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 0735215596
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 434
Book Description
"The Master Plan is less of a road map and more of a philosophy that we should all take to heart: We are all better than our worst decision, our sense of justice should honor the redemptive possibilities inherent in every person, and our destinies are truly intertwined."--Wes Moore, author of The Other Wes Moore Growing up in Washington, DC, Chris Wilson was surrounded by violence and despair. He watched his family and neighborhood shattered by trauma, and he lost his faith. One night when he was seventeen, defending himself, he killed a man. He was sentenced to life in prison with no hope of parole. But what should have been the end of his story became the beginning. Behind bars, Wilson embarked on a remarkable journey of self-improvement--reading, working out, learning languages, even starting a business. At nineteen, he sat down and wrote a list of all the things he intended to accomplish, and all the steps he'd have to take to get there. He called it his Master Plan. He revised that plan regularly and followed it religiously. Sixteen years later, it led him to an unlikely opportunity--and to a promise he has been working hard to live up to every day since. Harrowing, heartbreaking, and ultimately triumphant, The Master Plan is a memoir for this moment, proving that every person is capable of doing great things.

Book Description
Will he make another foul or will he be hers to take? Tall, dark, handsome Marcus Johnson is not the man for her, although the universe definitely disagrees. For four years now, he has appeared and just as quickly disappeared from her life. She’s had enough. She knows exactly where her life is going and she doesn't need some wishy-washy man slowing her down. Even if he has the most knee-weakening deep brown eyes and a voice that sends shivers down her spine. Oh and did she mention he’s going to be a doctor? He was raised to be a good man. Respect his elders, respect women, work hard, study even harder. It’s how he’s lived his life so far. Up until the fateful basketball game when she bounced on to the court with her short skirt and pom poms. Suddenly all he can think about is being bad, very bad. Because when it comes to the cheerleader of his fantasies, Dia Price, he’s a complete disaster. He can’t seem to stop messing everything up when he’s with her. He just hopes he can fix it before it’s too late.

The Black Athlete: A Shameful Story
Author: Jack Olsen
Publisher: Crime Rant Books
ISBN:
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 97
Book Description
Jack Olsen’s blunt depiction of the shameful treatment of black athletes in the 1960’s. A view of the sport most Americans refused to see during a time of complacency and pervasive racial crisis in America. Black collegiate athletes were often dehumanized, exploited and discarded. Recruited for their skill then lionized on the field and ostracized on campus. The world of professional sports offered black athlete’s opportunity but not equality. Positions that carry authority and responsibility were typically labeled “white only”. Olsen interviewed sociologists, black community leaders, coaches, AD’s and numerous athletes. This ground-breaking and controversial report sparked nationwide reforms when it was covered in a five-part series published by Sports Illustrated in 1968.
