228,95 kr. In this book is written the marvelous and inspiring life-story of a man of the Negro race who rose up from the most abject condition of birth and environment to dignity and honor, power and authority, before the snows of the winter age had whitened his head. The descendant of ancestors who had been dragged from the jungles of Africa into the slavery of the American cotton field, himself born in slavery and sold as a human chattel on the block of the slave market of Henderson, Kentucky, this man fought his way with a dogged persistence and a sublime courage to a place of peerage in the affairs of the nation that had shackled himself and his fathers. Withal, he preserved throughout his life a nobility of character and a gentleness of soul which saved him to blithe and serene living, and which leaves him now, in the twilight of his days, at peace with the world, honored by the community where he lives, distinguished in the service he rendered the nation which had enslaved him, loved by all who know him without regard to race or creed--a man of deeds and Christian charity. Colonel Allen Allensworth is my friend, and I am proud to call him such. All men would be the better for knowing him, and every man and woman, boy and girl, white or black, will receive both inspiration and a deep sense of pleasure for reading this his "Battles and Victories."

78,95 kr. There are Native American folklore stories in Wigwam Evenings of different types, each of which has its prototype or parallel in the nursery tales of other nations. The animal fables of the philosophic red man are almost as terse and satisfying as those of Aesop, of whom they put us strongly in mind. A little further on we meet with brave and fortunate heroes, and beautiful princesses, and wicked old witches, and magical transformations, and all the other dear, familiar material of fairy lore, combined with a touch that is unfamiliar and fascinating.

148,95 kr. I committed my life to Christ as a teen. I can remember attending a revival at my church. My church was Zion Temple First Pentecostal Church at that time. My bishop was Bishop Jasper J. Phillips. That night, I was so moved by what I heard, I decided to give my life to Christ. I can look back now, and it was the best decision that I made to date. I started on my journey to live for Christ. I was in the choir. I joined the Bible Bowl Team, where we studied certain topics and themes from the Bible. I also entered a biblical essay contest. I won an award for my entry. I want to note that the Bible Bowl and essay contest were part of the International Young People's Pentecostal Assembly of the World. This is where each church in our district competed against each other. These were friendly competitions. This was very helpful in learning and understanding God's word. In this competition, we had great, spirit-filled coaches and counselors who encouraged us to study.
