UnAFRAID, UnFRAZZLED & UnFROGettable

A Practical Guide to Overcoming Stage Fright and the Fear of Public Speaking. Jerry Seinfeld: ‘According to most studies, people’s number one fear is public speaking. Number two is death. Death is number two. Does that seem right? That means to the average person, if you have to go to a funeral, you’re better off in the casket than doing the eulogy! If what the American comedian says is true (and there are numerous polls to support his observation), millions of people would actually rather face death than speak in public. If you are one of those people, you have come to the right place for help!

The realities of the high-tech global economy for women and families in the United States. The idea that technology will pave the road to prosperity has been promoted through both boom and bust. Today we are told that universal broadband access, high-tech jobs, and cutting-edge science will pull us out of our current economic downturn and move us toward social and economic equality. In Digital Dead End, Virginia Eubanks argues that to believe this is to engage in a kind of magical thinking: a technological utopia will come about simply because we want it to. This vision of the miraculous power of high-tech development is driven by flawed assumptions about race, class, and gender. The realiti...

A Web Too Tight

Barbara Eubanks's A Web Too Tight shows how families are affected when the web of trust is damaged. Molly and her family, church family, and the town of Smythville are shocked when they learn the news: Molly's husband and senior pastor, Jack, has an affair with a church member he is counseling. Molly also learns that this was not the only person caught in Jack's web. A Web Too Tight is the saga of a fall, and we see that although sinners may repent and be forgiven, their sin still exacts a great price. Eubanks chronicles how, by the grace of God, a hurt wife can demonstrate Hosea-type forgiveness and lead others to forgive as well.

Teaching Christians to Pray the Bible Way

“I just want to say how proud I am to call Nate my friend. Nate is always close by when I need him at the church. Nate’s willingness to do even the most insignificant tasks, just to further the kingdom, is so appreciated. It is very exciting to see how God is working in his ministry. Nate is the epitome of a go-getter. He is driven by his passion to succeed in everything he sets his mind to. I think of James 1:22 in relation to how Nate carries himself. When he is inspired by God to do the best of his ability, he makes it happen! Congratulations, Nate, on this great work. God bless. I love you like a brother.” —Chad Hallcox, Worship/Assistant Pastor of Boaz Church of God
