Magnificent family and friends!. Let's keep praising and raising his name up, giving him all... the glory and the praise..... for what he’s already.. done, today!

Are you walking in the victory Jesus purchased for you at the cross? Do you want a more intimate relationship with God? Are you willing to do what it takes to remove any obstacles in your spiritual walk? Author, Ginger Schievelbein, uses the basic steps outlined in James 4:7-8 to guide you through the process of healing and deliverance. She uses the gift of discernment of spirits and her ten years of ministry experiences to expand and emphasize the truth of these verses. This book is designed for individual or group study, and will teach you how to have more of God and less of yourself as you come near to Him. Ginger Schievelbein is a first time author who grew up in a typical Christian home. At the age of fifteen, she encountered God and received the gift of discernment of spirits. Since she did not fully understand the gift, she kept it a secret for ten years. Gradually, she began to share some of her spiritual experiences with the adults and children under her ministry. Ten years later, God asked her to step down from those responsibilities so that He could send more people to her for personal prayer and deliverance. This ministry has grown, and recently she became an ordained minister. She and her husband reside in Texas where she homeschools their two teenagers.

The culmination of a lifetime's scholarly work, this pioneering study by Sister Prudence Allen traces the concept of woman in relation to man in Western thought from ancient times to the present. Volume I uncovers four general categories of questions asked by philosophers for two thousand years. These are the categories of opposites, of generation, of wisdom, and of virtue. Sister Prudence Allen traces several recurring strands of sexual and gender identity within this period. Ultimately, she shows the paradoxical influence of Aristotle on the question of woman and on a philosophical understanding of sexual coomplemenarity. Supplemented throughout with helpful charts, diagrams, and illustrations, this volume will be an important resource for scholars and students in the fields of women's studies, philosophy, history, theology, literary studies, and political science. In Volume 2, Sister Prudence Allen explores claims about sex and gender identity in the works of over fifty philosophers (both men and women) in the late medieval and early Renaissance periods. Touching on the thought of every philosopher who considered sex or gender identity between A.D. 1250 and 1500, The Concept of Woman provides the analytical categories necessary for situating contemporary discussion of women in relation to men. Adding to the accessibility of this fine discussion are informative illustrations, helpful summary charts, and extracts of original source material (some not previously available in English). In her third and final volume Allen covers the years 1500--2015, continuing her chronological approach to individual authors and also offering systematic arguments to defend certain philosophical positions over against others.
