Servanthood Leadership
Have you ever thought about the leadership style of Jesus Christ? There has never been anyone who has had an influence on the world the same way Jesus had. He began his ministry with a small group of men whom he equipped to change the world. Jesus' strategy of leading did not focus on status, prosperity, control, technics nor power. Jesus' plan, from the very beginning of his ministry, was to be a servant leader. And the kind of leadership style Jesus had is a strategy that will benefit any association, business, humanity group or any audience.So, in this book I want us to learn about the principle of transformative leadership by studying how Jesus led. No matter what leadership field a person serves in, whether leading a family, a church, a civic organization or a company, adopting the leadership example of Jesus will make that person more effective and productive. There has never been a leader who has had greater influence on the world than Jesus Christ. The lessons from his leadership style are practical and learnable skills that anyone can still apply today.
Tafseer of Surah Al Imran
Surah Imran continues the invitation started in Al-Baqarah(Chapter 2 of Quran), urging the Jews and Christians to embrace Islam. It clarifies the truth about Prophet Jesus and refutes the Christian belief of his divinity, emphasizing that Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) brings the same guidance as previous prophets.The surah reaffirms the teachings of monotheism, stressing that Allah is One, and that all prophets brought the same fundamental message from Allah. The Quran confirms the truth that was revealed in earlier scriptures like the Torah and the Gospel and talks about how the Jews and Christians corrupt some parts of their scriptures.Surah Imran reflects upon the victories and challenges faced by the Muslims, particularly in the Battles of Badr and Uhud. It highlights the importance of discipline, unity, and obedience to Allah. The setbacks at Uhud are attributed to greed and disobedience, serving as lessons for the community.In this Surah, Muslims are cautioned against following the same path of religious and moral decline that previous communities had fallen into. They are reminded of their responsibility to uphold truth, unity, and justice, and their duty to preserve the guidance of the Quran.

A Peircean Reimagining of Thomas Moore's Spirituality
Thomas Moore's psycho-spirituality offers many practical insights for people to cultivate their soulfulness. Underlying his program is the internal dichotomy between imaginal soul and intellectualizing spirit. Moore prioritizes soul and privileges its mystical worldview, which can lead to exaggerating introspectiveness and difficulty bridging a world of imagination with a world of fact. This book devises a pragmatic model of spirituality to serve as an alternative to Moore's Platonically inspired soul program. This model draws from Moore's vibrant character of soul and redirects it toward a critical social dialogue, scientific inquiry, and elevated political participation. Drawing from the Pragmatism of Charles Sanders Peirce, this book uses his famous Three Categories and Modes of Inference to reinterpret Moore's concepts of soul and spirit. Peirce's metaphysical categories situate soul in distinct relationship with the world, while the epistemological modes guide spirit to educate soul through experience. The concluding tripartite model is called a soulful anthropology, a nascent foundation for a 21st-century American theological anthropology dedicated to the needs and charisms of today's culture.

It's an invitation to meet God where it matters most.

Soul Hanging by a Silver Cord
On the 28th of October yours truly had been a participant in a meeting with other exorcist. There was discussion about being better at the expelling of omens.

A Commentary On The First Epistle Of The Apostle Paul To The Corinthians
Corinth was the most essential city of all Greece in Paul's day. It's riches was spectacular. Men spent their days in competitions and addresses. Extravagance, dissemination, and open unethical behavior were wild among this extraordinary modern and marine populace. Corinth pulled in incredible hordes of outsiders from the East and West. Their divine beings were lords of joy and desire. There was, additionally, much culture and craftsmanship. The city possessed large amounts of studios of dialect and schools of rationality.As in many urban communities, there was a substantial state of Jews who had dept a solid good standard and held to their religious convictions. In any case, the city itself was the focal point of a degraded type of the love of Venus.If we read Acts 18 we discover how the gospel achieved this insidious city. The witness Paul, then a man of fifty years old, in the attire of a working man, entered the bustling city and experienced its boulevards looking for a workshop where he may procure his own particular living. There were no boards publicizing the happening to a widely acclaimed evangelist. This tradesman came into town and started his tent-production. This was a main industry in that day like building is today. He started a new business with the well-to-do tent creators Aquila and Priscilla. He was constantly ready to bolster himself, making enough to bear on his minister work. A great work was done in Corinth amid the 18 months that Paul was there. He started by talking in the synagogues to blended gatherings of Jews and Greeks.To begin with Corinthians is a troublesome book to plot, for it takes up numerous great subjects. In him you have been advanced with everything (1 Corinthians 1:5).In Romans, Paul let us know that it was by Christ that we have admittance (access) by faith into this grace wherein we stand (Romans 5:2). At that point take after these wealth of graces in Christ Jesus, our All taking all things together. To begin with Corinthians manages Christian conduct.Reverend Dr. John Thomas Wylie

Black Parish, White Priest
"How long are you going to stay?" queried his skeptical Black parishioners. "I hope to die here," responded Denis, their new White pastor. With that commitment, he encouraged their sense of self-worth and urged them to claim their rights in the church and in the broader community. As he gained their trust, they called him, "Father O, not to be familiar, but in love." Working with Black ministers, he endeavored to improve the quality of life for everyone by creating the Chester Community Improvement Project and Better Housing for Chester. As tensions arose between Black parents and White teachers in his parochial school, and as his outspokenness provoked the city's politicians, complaints were made to Cardinal Krol, Archbishop of Philadelphia. Citing anonymous sources, the cardinal fired Denis as pastor. When he moved to another parish in obedience to the cardinal, Denis lamented, "All I want to do is cry, these are my people." Because Cardinal Krol would not identify his anonymous informants, Denis refused to resign as pastor and demanded a hearing in accordance with canon law. The dispute was resolved when the cardinal permitted Denis to accept a position at Saint Mary Seminary in Baltimore. There, before dying of cancer, he devoted himself to teaching young seminarians the nuts and bolts of being a pastor. Admonishing them to be good shepherds, he affirmed, "if you are going to live the gospel. you have to speak out." As he learned, you also have to be prepared to suffer the consequences.

The Parable of the 100 Sheep
God created hundred unique planets with a special test for the first man on it. Ninety-nine planets choose obedience to God but our planet, the number 100 failed. Adam chose the life of sin which gave Jesus the green light to carry out his plan to end evil. Without men participating in the life of sin and not having a universe with the dimensions of time and the present of matter, the problem of evil could not have been solved.

Jacobs travels through space, place, and time to rediscover the parts of queer Black women that have been quieted due to cisheteronormative, patriarchal, hegemonic, misogyny, and misogynoir systems of domination. She reflects on what it means to engage the decolonial through a theological and interdisciplinary lens, which includes epistemology, pedagogy, and ontology. Ecocosmological Spirituality of Southern Queer Black Women: (Re)Membering and Reconnecting Identity serves as a love letter to queer Black women who have often been overlooked in both academic and cultural milieus. Using queer autoethnography and decolonial methods, this book takes the reader on a journey of becoming. Jacobs presents themes of belonging, identity, healing, pain, joy, disconnection, reconnection, and the practice of (re)membering in the ecocosmological sphere. As an art form, she relies on scholars from disciplines beyond the scope of theology to address theological concerns and conscious positioning. This book is a call to unlearn, disconnect, deconstruct, and then (re)member, reconnect, and construct in life-giving, life-affirming, and life-altering ways.

An awakening among humanity has begun to fill the Earth-living embodiments of Love. This awakening testifies to a new reality: the union of Heaven and Earth in human form. The human and the divine are being reunited in Love, which is the true essence of both. It is the manifestation of a new Universal Consciousness which shall, in time, embrace everyone.Humankind is now beginning to emerge from a profound identity crisis. Because of our inherent creative power, we unwittingly created a world filled with want and fear. The new human consciousness shall manifest a paradise characterized by Joy and Love. As we embody greater Love we become the pioneers of this New Earth. This liberating consciousness is spreading quickly, bearing witness to the truth of the Love that we really are.We are at a point on the path that is so sublime, so holy, so immersed in Unity, that the thinking mind's symbols take on a new purpose: to serve, love, truth, and divine wisdom. Like beautiful beacons on the horizon, they show us temporal forms upon which we will now shine a new light. In a lively way, we will express the truth of who we are.This work is a new revelation! These words are a perfect expression of the path that the new humanity will begin to walk on Earth. A new portal in Universal Consciousness has opened. An energy of divine wisdom is spreading which will allow you first to remember, and then to recognize, what it means to live as daughters and sons of eternal love in the dimension of time.

But the lifeline became a two-decade long prison sentence when faith deserted him.There is still a happy ending.
