In today's society everyone is busy-busy taking the kids to school, busy with work, busy with life. We're always rushing to and fro, never really taking the time to slow down. We throw a quick 'Lord, keep me safe today,' in the mornings, but Wait a Minute, God's Still Talking. In their second book, Warren and Mary Beth Powell, highlight the importance of taking the time to listen to what God has to say back to you. Wait a Minute, God's Still Talking is a collection of short stories like you'd hear told from your grandparents on the back porch-simple, easy-to-understand, and yet always pointing toward God's faithfulness. Warren and Mary Beth share from their own experiences, blending insights, wit, and humor with biblical truths, To show how God will use everyday items to catch our attention and teach us something, if only we'd stop to listen. Did you ever think God would use: bull; paper towels to teach about being centered on Christ, bull; a motorcycle license plate to explain his forgiveness, bull; Scotch tape as an example that he is our God 24/7, bull; or a cell phone as a lesson about hiding sin? Warren and Mary Beth Powell live in Henderson, Texas. This is their second book, a continuation of Sonbeams, or short devotionals, that began in their first book, A Dirty Sink, A Bug, and Squirrels: God Speaks.

Is God still talking? This book makes the question a statement. God is still talking. The real question is: Are you listening? God is still talking to you. Did God have anything more to say after the completion of Scripture, or has he retreated into silence? In God Is Still Talking, Dr. James E. Hamer explores these and other questions pertaining to a daily relationship with Christ. He takes the reader on a journey to the greater dimension of living in the Spirit where there is daily access to the presence of God. It is an invisible reality, there to be explored and experienced rather than argued and analyzed, if believers want to hear God talking. Dr. Hamer sees a capacity for more in our personal relationships with Christa "sacred places where God is still speaking. How is it possible to have a personal relationship with someone who is invisible? God Is Still Talking will help you recognize the various ways that God is communicating his direction, insights, and truth to your life. What is God saying to you?"

Do you still curse yourself over the day you met your hero; when instead of asking him the one question that's been nagging you for years, you couldn't utter a word because you were suddenly (and uncharacteristically) struck dumb? Well, curse no more. Still Talking Blue is a unique collection of interviews that will answer everything you wanted to know about your Everton heroes and with none of the unnecessary waffle - because it only asks the relevant questions, as submitted by the fans. Collated via the Internet, disenfranchised Evertonions scattered across the globe proudly display their astounding recall of bygone events and trivia. From Iceland to South Africa, Australia to Israel, long-suffering Bluenoses are finally given the opportunity to ask questions of their heroes and they do so with panache. The book contains in-depth interviews spanning the decades from the '50s, when shorts were long and Dave Hickson's quiff was the envy of Hollywood, right through to Dave Watson's final days at the club. Join us as we endeavour to track down John Bailey's 'big hat' and Gordon West's handbag, and move seamlessly on to more pressing topics such as Kevin Ratcliffe's biggest regret, Mick Lyon's worst injury and Alan Harper's favourite goal. So, if you lie awake at night wondering just what went wrong in the '68 Cup Final, whether Jimmy Gabriel still has his white trench coat, if Barry Horne really does like The Cocteau Twins or how Dave Hickson has managed to hang on to his hair, then unfurrow your brow because the answers all lie within these pages. No Evertonion should be expected to survive without this book.

The main objective of this edited collection is to provide an insight into key facets of contemporary research and scholarship on race and ethnicity. The various chapters were presented at a conference to celebrate the 40th Anniversary of the international journal Ethnic and Racial Studies. Given this context, contributors reflect on the evolution of scholarship over the past five decades, and look forward to the range of issues that we shall need to research and understand more fully in the future. In doing so they both provide an overview of the shifting boundaries of the field of ethnic and racial studies and display an engagement with emerging fields of scholarship and research. The volume brings together leading scholars who have experience of researching race and ethnicity in various parts of the globe, and combines conceptual reflection with empirically focused analysis. This book was originally published as a special issue of Ethnic and Racial Studies.

Sista Talk: The Personal and the Pedagogical is an inquiry into the questions of how Black women define their existence in a society which devalues, dehumanizes, and silences their beliefs. Placing herself inside of the research, Rochelle Brock invites the reader on a journey of self-exploration, as she and seven of her Black female students investigate their collective journey toward self-awareness in the attempt to liberate their minds and souls from ideological domination. Throughout, Sista Talk attempts to understand the ways in which this self-exploration informs her pedagogy. Combining Black feminist and Afrocentric Theory with critical pedagogy, this book frames the parameters for an Afrowomanist pedagogy of wholeness for teaching Black students.

This timely book explores the wisdom of the Gnostic Jesus, who challenges our preconceptions about the world and ourselves. Based on the Gospel of Thomas, the book recounts the missing years in Jesus’ life and his time in Egypt and India, learning from Egyptian secret societies, then Buddhist schools, then Hindu Vedanta. Each of Jesus' original sayings is the "seed" for a chapter of the book; each examines one aspect of life — birth, death, love, fear, anger, and more — counterpointed by Osho’s penetrating comments and responses to questions from his audience.
