Book Description
The main objective of this writing is to produce a story of my experience as a Christian without being overly theological. It is an endeavor to understand my cultural relationships from a Christian cultural perspective. Many profound friends, teachers and pastors have been an immeasurable help and source of strength along the journey. Ministry is not for the faint of heart. Ministerial conviction develops very strong convictions of hope, faith, and prayer. The book is the result of six specific areas of Christianity that I have tried to address with family, church and friends. Many have helped to shape, mold, and at times anchor me. It is written to encourage people who are churched and unchurched to consider an awesome Savior in Christ Jesus; He who came to save the world from sin and reconcile man back to God. His Word says, “All men” are made in His image. That includes the sinner that has not yet been delivered into salvation. I give Him glory and take no credit of my own. This is my story replete with laughter, tragedy, shortcomings, and victories. This book is not meant to harm, notify or crucify any certain denomination, religious belief, or non- belief. Some of the names of churches and people in this book are fictional and are the compilation of many beloved relationships with no specific reference to an individual or denomination, while at other times direct reference is added to substantiate the material in this book.

Book Description
Lost Churches of Mississippi is a collection of archival photographs, postcards, and drawings of more than one hundred notable churches and synagogues vanquished by fire, disaster, development, or neglect. Constructed primarily from the mid-1800s through the early 1900s, these places of worship were often among the most visually prominent and architecturally striking buildings in Mississippi. Storms, floods, tornadoes, flames, bulldozers, or the disbandment of congregations razed what once was hallowed. In Lost Churches of Mississippi, architectural historian Richard J. Cawthon reclaims such noteworthy churches as the old St. Paul's Catholic Church in Vicksburg, Bethel Presbyterian Church near Columbus, the old Trinity Episcopal Church in Pass Christian, and the old First Presbyterian Church in Yazoo City. Selections represent over fifty towns and cities throughout the state and are captured in 180 distinctive black-and-white illustrations from several historical archives and other collections. Cawthon discusses the architectural features and historical background of each house of worship and provides a brief introduction that illuminates the study of lost buildings, as well as a glossary of architectural terms and an annotated bibliography. Lost Churches of Mississippi rescues a cardinal legacy and recognizes a portion of the state's rich architectural and religious heritage.

Book Description
This book is the first comprehensive study of nineteenth-century Mormon architecture and city planning. Professor Hamilton examines the doctrine of Zion, which led to an elaborate hierarchy of building types - temples, tabernacles, meetinghouses, tithing offices, priesthood halls and domestic dwellings. His account, augmented by 135 original and historical photographs, provides a fascinating example of how religious teachings and practices are expressed in planned communities and architectural forms.

Book Description
Offers the best essays from the acclaimed collection originally published in French. This monumental work examines how and why events and figures become a part of a people's collective memory, how rewriting history can forge new paradigms of cultural identity, and how the meaning attached to an event can become as significant as the event itself.
