Moving Forward on God's Highway
This is a book about the grace of God and His singular purpose for everyone's life. Using his life as an example, the author signals how we are born into certain families, have certain unique talents, have various life experiences, learn important life lessons, get off track and have to be bounced around a bit, and perhaps have to hit a horrible bottom before we surrender to this ordained purpose from our Creator. The book is colorful, fast moving, and covers a multitude of areas including alcoholism, the 12 step program, psychology and the field of mental health, theology, New Age journeys, custody battles, male-female relations, many travel and adventure experiences, and various other topics as sampled by the author. Mostly, the book is about the futility of our personal resources in serving our God ordained purpose without a surrender to this power greater than ourselves and the grace that follows.
There's Always Work at the Post Office
This book brings to life the important but neglected story of African American postal workers and the critical role they played in the U.S. labor and black freedom movements. Historian Philip Rubio, a former postal worker, integrates civil rights, labor, and left movement histories that too often are written as if they happened separately. Centered on New York City and Washington, D.C., the book chronicles a struggle of national significance through its examination of the post office, a workplace with facilities and unions serving every city and town in the United States. Black postal workers--often college-educated military veterans--fought their way into postal positions and unions and became a critical force for social change. They combined black labor protest and civic traditions to construct a civil rights unionism at the post office. They were a major factor in the 1970 nationwide postal wildcat strike, which resulted in full collective bargaining rights for the major postal unions under the newly established U.S. Postal Service in 1971. In making the fight for equality primary, African American postal workers were influential in shaping today's post office and postal unions.

Longing for Jesus
The Church at Worship is a series of documentary case studies of specific worshiping communities from around the world and throughout Christian history that can inform and enrich worship practices today. In this third volume, Longing for Jesus, Lester Ruth vividly portrays a prominent African-American holiness church in Jackson, Mississippi, in the early twentieth century. Ruth's rich selection of primary documents presents readers with a vibrant snapshot of this dynamic church and its pastor, Charles Price Jones, caught between factors that threatened the existence of the congregation itself: Jim Crow racism, conflicting visions for the church, appropriate Christian piety, and social aspirations. In the midst of conflicts inside and outside, the church fought to create a space where it could worship Jesus as it saw fit.
