Broken Crown
In Broken Crown, Chris Bell gives readers a fresh look at the ancient account of King Saul's tragic reign and the valuable lessons it holds for us today. No one looked the part of a valiant leader and courageous warrior more than Israel's first King. But Saul's impressive facade masked a dark inner reality that would ultimately lead to a tragic downfall. Although chosen and transformed by God to lead the nation, Saul refused over and over again to allow God to mold him into a man worthy to wear the crown. In his first book, Bell examines the often-neglected story of King Saul and reveals how the inner struggles that led to his broken crown and kingdom are the very issues that threaten to destroy our lives today. In Broken Crown, discover how to confront your own brokenness and embrace the life of wholeness and freedom found only in the One True King.
Natural Born Gangster
Chris Bell was born on the West Side of Chicago and attended Catholic elementary school on the South Side. He was an unusual and gifted star child who was beyond his mother's understanding. His gang activities kept him out of the regular sequential leap from grade to grade. He joined his first martial arts gang, GGWB (Good Guys Wear Black), just after kindergarten, because he was being bullied everyday by an older kid. He earned his high school diploma by challenging the GED at his mother's behest, after reading books on math, language arts, classics, and Aesop's Fables, which he loved the most, in local libraries day and night, well before his eighteenth birthday, and earned the title "the ...

The Skills of Primary School Management
This book is for all teachers who have curriculum and management responsibilities in primary schools or who aspire to those positions. It provides an analysis of those responsibilities and of how they may best be exercised in the changing climate of primary education. It takes account of the many radical policy changes that have influenced the management of primary schools since 1988. Above all it offers practical guidelines on which effective strategies for managing primary schools may be based while recognising that good management is not an end in itself.
Blackness and Disability
Disability Studies diverge from the medical model of disability (which argues that disabled subjects can and should be “fixed”) to view disability as socially constructed, much in the same way other identities are. The work of reading black and disabled bodies is not only recovery work, but work that requires a willingness to deconstruct the systems that would keep those bodies in separate spheres. This pivotal volume uncovers the misrepresentations of black disabled bodies and demonstrates how those bodies transform systems and culture. Drawing on key themes in Disability Studies and African American Studies, these collected essays complement one another in interesting and dynamic ways,...
