Book Description
The New York Times–bestselling author’s “harrowing” novel about a cop and a crack dealer—the basis for the acclaimed Spike Lee film (The New York Times). Rocco Klein, a veteran homicide detective in a New Jersey city just outside Manhattan, has lost his appetite for the wild drama of the street. When a warm June night brings yet another drug murder, Klein has no sense that the case is anything special. A black twenty-year-old steps forward to confess, but a little digging reveals that he’s never been in any kind of trouble, whereas his brother runs a crew of street-corner cocaine dealers—clockers—in a nearby housing project. Soon Klein is sure that Victor Dunham is innocent, sure that his brother, Strike, is the real killer. And suddenly Rocco’s hunger for the job is back. At once an explosive murder mystery and a riveting portrait of two lives on a collision course, Clockers is a gritty tale of suspense from the award-winning screenwriter for HBO’s The Wire, a New York Times–bestselling novelist who “gets so deep under the skin of both the cops and the clockers that it’s hard to believe he himself has never been either” (People). “Page after page explodes with prose as vivid as kinetic art.” —Chicago Tribune “Powerful . . . Harrowing . . . Remarkable.” —The New York Times Book Review “Triumphant . . . An astounding accomplishment.” —The Philadelphia Inquirer

Book Description
This book is in the epistle form, written just as the Bible. When the apostles wrote letters to the various churches, those letters are epistles. Those epistles were not only written to those particular churches. They were also written to the entire body of Christ (the modern-day church today). This book is written in the same manner. It was written to a man of God whom I honored highly. He is no longer with us now. He was the president of Southwest Radio Church Ministries, but like all other epistles, it's also written to all churches, every person in this nation, and nations through the planet. It opens with my testimony with regard to how and when I became a Christian. It goes on support David Barton’s material entitled Our Godly American Heritage. It encourages godly people to obtain this material and all videos and books Mr. Barton’s ministry has to offer. I included excerpts from this particular video to whet the appetite of the people of the US and all readers of the book. David Barton brings forth information regarding our history. He issues statistics differentiating how things are currently after prayer is removed from all schools and life in this nation when prayer was prayed by our students at all levels, even our little ones. It made a great difference spiritually and in other ways in the lives of God's people. (I am reaching out to the president currently on Facebook with regard to this matter. See ARE Outreach Facebook and Alvin Ervin Facebook if you like). This book also supports Vaughn Shatzer’s material entitled A New World Disorder. He brings forth information regarding a new world order. We know this is in the work currently because President George H. W. Bush issued this statement to the American people in the late eighties, stating, “It is now time for a new world order.” President Bill Clinton allowed Vice President Al Gore to make a statement on his behalf from England, declaring, “What was written with a quill pen is now outdated, we need to reinvent government.” Our Constitution was written with a quill pen. There are those in this nation who are wanting to abolish it. But prayer is making a big difference. There are twenty-eight nations in Europe currently under one world currency. The book of Revelation reveals to us there will be one world order, meaning every nation on the planet will be under one world currency, one world military, and one world religion. But our prayer is that it does not occur until Christ raptures His church. This book concludes by informing God’s people in this nation as well as nations throughout the earth that Christ is coming soon to catch His Bride away through the Rapture. The Word of God says in First Thessalonians 4:16–17, For the lord Himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the Archangel, and with the trump of God and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air and so shall we ever be with the Lord. God’s Word says in Matthew 24:32–35 that the generation that sees the fig tree take on its leaves shall not pass away until all things are fulfilled. The nation of Israel is the fig tree, and it took on her leaves in 1948 after lying dormant over two thousand years when the Roman general destroyed the Jewish Temple in AD 70. It discontinued the Jewish way of life. This book also concludes by teaching God’s people from the book of Revelation chapter 13 regarding the one world order.

Book Description
Before invasion, Turtle Island-or North America-was home to vibrant cultures that shared long-standing philosophical precepts. The most important and wide-spread of these was the view of reality as a collaborative binary known as the Twinned Cosmos of Blood and Breath. This binary system was built on the belief that neither half of the cosmos can exist without its twin. Both halves are, therefore, necessary and good. Western anthropologists typically shorthand the Twinned Cosmos as "Sky and Earth" but this erroneously saddles it with Christian baggage and, worse, imposes a hierarchy that puts sky quite literally above earth. None of this Western ideology legitimately applies to traditional Indigenous American thought, which is about equal cooperation and the continual recreation of reality. Spirits of Blood, Spirits of Breath examines traditional historical concepts of spirituality among North American Indians both at and, to the extent it can be determined, before contact. In doing so, Barbara Alice Mann rescues the authentically indigenous ideas from Western, and especially missionary, interpretations. In addition to early European source material, she uses Indian oral traditions, traced as much as possible to their earliest versions and sources, and Indian records, including pictographs, petroglyphs, bark books, and wampum. Moreover, Mann respects each Indigenous culture as a discrete unit, rather than generalizing them as is often done in Western anthropology. To this end, she collates material in accordance with actual historical, linguistic, and traditional linkages among the groups at hand, with traditions clearly identified by group and, where recorded, by speaker. In this way she provides specialists and non-specialists alike a window into the purportedly lost, and often caricatured, world of Indigenous American thought.
