Description: n 1890 a twenty-four-year-old African American missionary named William Henry Sheppard departed for what was then the Belgian Congo, where for more than twenty years he ran a mission staffed by black Americans. Returning to America periodically, he was billed as the "Black Livingstone" and traveled the country telling tales of his adventures to packed auditoriums. An anthropologist, photographer, big-game hunter, and art collector, he helped expose the atrocities that occurred under the reign of King Leopold, eventually helping to break Belgium's hold on the Congo. Black Livingstone is the untold story of this extraordinary historical figure, a remarkable man who personified the adventure and ambiguities of his time.

Binding: Paperback
Author: Tony Ladd::James A. Mathisen
Publisher: Baker Books
Dewey Decimal Number: 796.0882044
Publication Date: 1999-07-01
Reading Level: 288
 
Description: Although evangelical Protestants have played a significant role in the evolution of American sports, their role has too often been overlooked or under appreciated. Muscular Christianity interprets the influence key people and groups have had on the development of American sports, both to tell the story and to provide context and direction for those involved in sports today. In addition, this book offers background information and warnings to increase ministry effectiveness and avoid repeating mistakes of the past.

The authors focus on the historical and sociological development of the muscular Christian movement and on its current institutional character. Muscular Christians are presented as agents and filters of change within American sport which are often guided by specifically religious motivations. The book examines well-known nineteenth- and twentieth-century sports heroes and evangelists - including James Naismith, D.L. Moody, Eric Liddell, Billy Sunday, Billy Graham, and Bill McCartney - and explores the role of Christian celebrities in contemporary sports.

This book will be used by local church and national ministries involved in evangelical sports ministry, those interested in sports studies and church history, colleges and seminaries, and libraries.

Description: A practical guide for contacting angels, Discovering Angels bridges the gap between the ancient, more traditional views of Biblical angels and current alternative spirituality notions of angelic presence. Drawing from both approaches, the book gives a historical account of the origins of angels, and offers substantive guidance on how to draw closer to your guardian angel. Helpful charts and guides explain everything from angel symbolism to the nine angelic orders. By seeking a closer relationship with different angels and their particular attributes of protection, healing, or inspiration, readers can attain greater clarity of thought and enhanced self-awareness. Angels can even bestow feelings of protection and love. Written for anyone interested in angels, Discovering Angels offers beautiful full-color images and a charming metallic-pink jacket, while providing lucid explanations of what angels have to give us, profiles of individual angels, information on how to contact them, and much more.
