This book is an in-depth analysis into the hearts, minds and souls of men who are long-term offenders and have experienced significant changes in their lives over the years. It is the sound of their voices coming alive through print that will engage the reader and transform and influence their perspectives on inmates committed to change!
Many traditionalists, particularly those in leadership positions within the institutional church (bishops, deacons, trustees, elders, etc.), have a very high opinion of themselves. There is an air of superiority and elitism among their ranks. In their minds, there is a profound difference between them and the laity (fancy word for 'church folk') and they make damn sure you never forget it!
The immediacy of the Presence of God through the person of the Holy Spirit is startling. Once you enter in you can never truly leave. The confirmation of this is rooted in the growth of the relationship. It is based on developing intimacy with the Father. Make no mistake about it; He must be pursued by you! You have to seek Him diligently and when you come into His Presence, you have to know He is who He says He is and that He will reward you with His Presence.
Constantly changing and morphing into another organism, our Savior materializes and dematerializes right in front of our very eyes as our human condition changes. The names of God are limitless and their definitions outnumber the stars in the sky! God's love for us is ruthless. As I contemplate the transformation of Jesus from Spirit to Man back to Spirit, it blows my mind what He could have been thinking when God tapped Him on the shoulder and said, "You know I have to send you into the earth for that worthless lot of heathens don't you? And you also know that You are going to have to suffer the worst death in human history right? And I know it's a hard thing to hear, but it pleases Me that I am going to have to kill YOU so they can live! Now, take a peek into time from eternity so that You can see what this will look like! I believe at that moment of revelation the spirit of the Belligerent Christ was created...and this story is dedicated to those who HEAR and OBEY Him.
I am passionate about "marketplace ministry." I abandoned legalism and the laziness, comfort and apathy associated with being a Christian. For many years I "sat" on the gifts and talents afforded me by the grace of God. I was frustrated and irritated. I was bored with the regiment of Sunday mornings. I was invisible. I wanted more. I needed more. I asked God to set me free and He did it! I was given the gift of Mandate Ministries in 2008 and it is obvious to me that God spoke the same breath of life into other men who was tiring of "church" and longing for the Kingdom but didn't exactly know how to get there! We weren't invisible to man, we were invisible to God!
This book is a profound indictment on how the prosperity gospel has corrupted the influence, integrity and witness of the institutional church.Every aspect of deception, witchcraft and demonic activity is exposed in this book. The pursuit of the almighty dollar has bastardized the ability to develop spiritually mature believers that will be able to infiltrate the marketplace and become effective witnesses for Christ! Trust me, if you are living foul, you will be offended by this book!
"The Anatomy of Faith" (TAF) has been authored to prescribe various remedies to the life of the Christian who has lost faith in God or who has yet to identify their purpose for living.
It is the deep waters of divine revelation of the hearts of men, compiled through exhaustive interviews and countless conversations, who have encountered, succumbed to, prevailed and been empowered by the truth of their own testimonies. Every man has a story. Everyone has something to say. Not everyone is eloquent of speech. Some people talk too much. Many are silent and have more to say in their silence than the most vocal of us all. Everyone has a sound!
Why do men and women fail in relationships and marriages and in the households they have sworn to uphold? Why do Sport Superstars cheat, and fall to prey with women outside of the marriage when they still love their wives? The answer will surprise you as we discover that a Human relationship is two-fold. It may be the man's or husband's failure but it is not without the woman's' or wife's contribution to that failure. Men are just not smart enough to round out a relationship on their own; this is why God gave women the gift of communication. With this gift she is to unravel who he is and what kind of provider he will become, before she has sex with him. Steve Harvey's book "Act like a Woman, Think like a Man" is also highly recommended by this author. Yet to know why men and women must fall into order with the rest of God's Creations, "Of Adam's Rib" addresses that in earnest.
This book is dedicated to the Name of God. It struck me the other day in conversation with a few friends how lightly we take His Name. We take His name in vain, misappropriate grace and mercy in His Name and scandalously abuse His Name. It is my intention to re-ignite the flame of glory among Believers in His Name so that we can be worthy to carry His Name as Ambassadors for Christ to the end of the earth...
