Barbers and beauticians are expertly positioned to have a hand on the pulse of their communities—and Barnard the Barber is no exception. Learning from his village as the barber, the author shares those lessons learned on how we can liberate the rural South by building antiracist communities everywhere. This book provides actionable steps that each of us can take, in righteous indignation, to sign our own Emancipation Proclamations! These solutions are formatted into eight postulates in homage to the eight principles of Charlamagne Tha God’s book: Black Privilege: Opportunity Comes to Those Who Create It. In this book you will learn how to: • create a blueprint for your own life’s divine path; • leverage and utilize the infrastructure of our established hair care networks; • become the bridge of wisdom between our ancestors and our youth today. The author emphasizes that all white people are not evil; it’s just that those who are wicked in America have taken immorality to an unfettered and unmatched extreme. Similarly, not all Republicans are racists, but today’s Republican Party is a perfect place for racists to hide their ideologies. The Southern Awakening will guide you to discovering the true redemption of self-liberation!

Most twentieth-century Americans fail to appreciate the power of Christian conversion that characterized the eighteenth-century revivals, especially the Great Awakening of the 1740s. The common disdain in this secular age for impassioned religious emotion and language is merely symptomatic of the shift in values that has shunted revivals to the sidelines. The very magnitude of the previous revivals is one indication of their importance. Between 1740 and 1745 literally thousands were converted. From New England to the southern colonies, people of all ages and all ranks of society underwent the New Birth. Virtually every New England congregation was touched. It is safe to say that most of the colonists in the 1740s, if not converted themselves, knew someone who was, or at least heard revival preaching. The Awakening was a critical event in the intellectual and ecclesiastical life of the colonies. The colonists' view of the world placed much importance on conversion. Particularly, Calvinist theology viewed the bestowal of divine grace as the most crucial occurrence in human life. Besides assuring admission to God's presence in the hereafter, divine grace prepared a person for a fullness of life on earth. In the 1740s the colonists, in overwhelming numbers, laid claim to the divine power which their theology offered them. Many experienced the moral transformatoin as promised. In the Awakening the clergy's pleas of half a century came to dramatic fulfillment. Not everyone agreed that God was working in the Awakening. Many believed preachers to be demagogues, stirring up animal spirits. The revival was looked on as an emotional orgy that needlessly disturbed the churches and frustrated the true work of God. But from 1740 to 1745 no other subject received more attention in books and pamphlets. Through the stirring rhetoric of the sermons, theological treatises, and correspondence presented in this collection, readers can vicariously participate in the ecstasy as well as in the rage generated by America's first national revival.

Francis Schaeffer and the Shaping of Evangelical America

Francis Schaeffer (1912-1984) was probably the single greatest intellectual influence on young evangelicals of the 1960s and '70s. He was cultural critic, popular mentor, political activist, Christian apologist, founder of L'Abri, and the author of over twenty books and two important films. It is impossible to understand the intellectual world of contemporary evangelicalism apart from Francis Schaeffer.Barry Hankins has written a critical but appreciative biography that explains how Schaeffer was shaped by the contexts of his life -- from young fundamentalist pastor in America, to greatly admired mentor, to lecturer and activist who encouraged world-wary evangelicals to engage the culture around them. Drawing extensively from primary sources, including personal interviews, Hankins paints a picture of a complex, sometimes flawed, but ultimately prophetic figure in American evangelicalism and beyond.
