Mindful of Race

Transforming Racism from the Inside Out

By: Ruth King

Racism is a heart disease," writes Ruth King, "and it's curable." Exploring a crucial topic seldom addressed in meditation instruction, this revered teacher takes to her pen to shine a compassionate, provocative, and practical light into a deeply neglected and world-changing domain profoundly relevant to all of us. With Mindful of Race, Ruth King offers: Tend first to our suffering, listen to what it is trying to teach us, and direct its energies most effectively for change. Here, she invites us to explore: Ourselves as racial beings, the dynamics of oppression, and our role in racism • The power of paying homage to our most turbulent emotions, and perceiving the wisdom they hold • Key mindfulness tools to understand and engage with racial tension • Identifying our "soft spots" of fear and vulnerability—how we defend them and how to heal them • Embracing discomfort, which is a core competency for transformation • How our thoughts and emotions "rigidify" our sense of self—and how to return to the natural flow of who we are • Body, breath, and relaxation practices to befriend and direct our inner resources • Identifying our most sensitive "activation points" and tending to them with caring awareness • "It’s not just your pain"—the generational constellations of racial rage and ignorance and how to work with them • And many other compelling topics Drawing on her expertise as a meditation teacher and diversity consultant, King helps readers of all backgrounds examine with fresh eyes the complexity of racial identity and the dynamics of oppression. She offers guided instructions on how to work with our own role in the story of race and shows us how to cultivate a culture of care to come to a place of greater clarity and compassion.

Power of the King's Blood

Why Blood Matters!

By: Ruth Schofield

“And he has made from one blood every nation of men to dwell on all the face of the earth, and has determined their preappointed times and the boundaries of their dwellings” (Acts 17:26). Science has proven that the human race is related by blood, and the Bible reveals how God’s eternal covenant with mankind is based on blood. Learn why this is a vital key for daily living. Without the atoning blood of Jesus, sinful man is separated from God. Believers are redeemed by the power of the blood of Jesus, which Christ himself has placed on the mercy seat in heaven. Christians obtain righteousness and power over sin by the blood of Jesus, by the merit of that blood which he offered up as an atoning sacrifice. Christ’s blood brings us into fellowship with God: “But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far away have been brought near through the blood of Christ” (Ephesians 2:13). The ability to enter God’s presence is founded upon the blood of Jesus and his high priestly ministry. Jesus says in John 14:6, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” Jesus, the High Priest, is the living way through whom we can draw near to God to honor and devote ourselves to him with diligence with all our heart and without selfish motives. Believers must be aware they are dependent upon God’s divine grace and should have no other purpose but to please him. Learn how the sacrificial blood of God’s very own Son, Jesus Christ, becomes the spiritual DNA of all who receive him as Lord and Savior. You, too, can experience a victorious life in this challenging world and know you have eternal life!

Cracking the Timeline

Cracking the Timeline

By: Ruth Rosemary

History versus science, history versus history, or history with science--who has it right? In this book, you will be challenged to think differently about BC history. Discover a calendar that is over five thousand years old and how the younger calendars go with it in this timeline. Discover a reason why different dates are assigned to the same event. Explore why the Second Temple of Judaism which stood partly BC and partly AD for about 420 years can have a start date in the 500s BC and 300s BC. Discover concurrent event reading of the Bible as it relates to history. Discover the accuracy preserved by forefathers and more. With the use of the Gregorian calendar beginning in the 1500s, we read BC history with dates that go backward as events move forward. This is exactly the opposite of our current dates where the dates move forward as events move forward. In this book there is a BC to AD timeline of the Bible, some history and some prophesied events. As you read, you will go on a journey through history, and put together past and present through what was written down about events and prophesied events. 157

AIM to Be Like JESUS

AIM to Be Like JESUS

By: Mary Ruth Whitley

The Bible is God's description of His creation from the beginning of time to the end of time. Amid all the pages, of wonder and mystery, are people like you and me. AIM to Be Like Jesus describes the thread God has woven around human lives""a thread by which He calls out to mankind. His words are simply, "Here I am! I stand by the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with him, and he with me" (Revelation 3:20). While writing the book The BE Attitudes for Christians, I very clearly observed the many characters, whose lives God has given us as examples. It was these characters who inspired me to write my next book, AIM to Be Like Jesus. There were many characters I could have chosen, but I chose people who, in my opinion, portrayed a unique quality. These Bible characters have human attitudes that they purposely chose to use for God. This book begins with Abel, who was considered righteous because of his pleasing sacrifice to God. It ends with Jesus, who was righteous, perfect, and was used as the final sinless sacrifice for mankind. The acronym "AIM" is to help the reader focus on: the attitude to be developed, instruction about the characters, and meditation on Scripture about the characters. When characters in the Bible come alive, I often wonder, "Could I be like that?

Green Hills of Magic

West Virginia Folktales from Europe

By: Ruth Ann Musick

In the early years of this century, miners from nearly every country in Europe and Asia Minor migrated to West Virginia to seek employment in its great collieries. With them they brought many folktales and legends of then homelands. Ruth Ann Musick has collected some of the best and most representative of these stories—never before published in book form—in The Green Hills of Magic. In many instances, these tales were first related in family circles in the native languages of the tellers, later to be translated by their younger English-speaking descendants. Entertaining in themselves, the stories are also excellent examples of the diverse folk beliefs and cultural patterns of the national and ethnic immigrant groups. The tales are attractively illustrated with more than twenty black-and-white drawings.
