Book excerpt: Steve White’s story began in January of 1950 after being born to an African American poor Pentecostal preacher and an Italian mother in a little town just north of New York City. With his father passing away at an early age and his mother not really knowing how to manage a household, work, and raise three young children by herself, life was made very interesting, to say to least, for young Steven growing up. Young Steven did not always travel the right road or in the right direction and refused to learn many things that would have helped him, and he absolutely had his own mind and was very stubborn, but the religious training taught by his father, passed down through his mother, proved to be beneficial in the latter years of his very twisted life. So sit back, and delve into the life of a man whose life most surely can and will help people with the same problems that plagued the life of Steven A. White.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Long before Kevin Jennings began advocating to end anti-LGBT bias in schools, he was a victim of it. In Mama's Boy, Preacher's Son, Jennings traces the roots of his activism to his elementary school days in the conservative South, where "faggot" became more familiar to him than his own name. Mama's Boy, Preacher's Son is that rare memoir that is both a riveting personal story and an inside account of a critical chapter in our recent history. Creating safe schools for all youth is now a central part of the progressive agenda in American education—and Kevin Jennings is at the forefront of that fight. Mama's Boy, Preacher's Son earned an A- in Entertainment Weekly, was featured in Salon and The Advocate, and was called "a great read" by People.

In this insightful book, #1 New York Times bestselling author T.D. Jakes wrestles with age-old questions: Why do the righteous suffer? Where is God in all the injustice? Bishop Jakes tells crushing personal stories from his own journey -- the painful experience of learning his young teenage daughter was pregnant, the agony of watching his mother succumb to Alzheimer's, and the shock and helplessness he felt when his son had a heart attack. Bishop Jakes wants to show you how God uses difficult, crushing experiences to prepare you for unexpected blessings. If you are faithful through suffering, you will be surprised by God's joy, comforted by His peace, and fulfilled with His purpose. Crushing will inspire you to have hope, even in your most difficult moments. If you trust in God and lean on Him during setbacks, He will lead you through.

Book excerpt: Michael Page has trouble with the two most important relationships in his life -- with his minister-father and his girlfriend who wants to sing rock and roll. His attempts to work them out brought widespread recognition to a book with as much humor as conflict. The New York Times named it a “Notable Book of the Year” as well as the “first ever Southern Baptist sex comedy.”From Algonquin Books, the original publisher... In this vivid novel of a father's and son's love for each other, Terry Pringle probes deeply into the problems and meanings of young manhood, frustrated expectations, and clashing modes of religious and social values and assumptions. From reviews and recognition... Best Books Young Adult -- American Library Association Notable Book of the Year -- New York Times "The Preacher's Boy may be the first-ever Southern Baptist sex comedy." --New York Times Book Review "As true as the clink of a coin in the plate on Sunday morning." --Kirkus Reviews "A welcome deliverance from the dark world of TV preachers and numb ritual. Pringle conducts it all with masterful skill." --Spectrum "One of those books that keeps you laughing while you are reading, and leaves you thinking when you are through." --Winston-Salem Journal "A million laughs" --Chattanooga Times "Bawdy and entertaining" --Publishers Weekly "This is my favorite kind of book -- a comedy, often blisteringly funny, that's also fundamentally serious." --Raleigh Spectator "Frequently hilarious...a rare treat" --Macon Telegraph and News
