His Blood Cries Out For Justice

More than forty years ago, Ollie Chandler was only eighteen years old when he was executed on October 18, 1963. In this memoir, Ollie's brother and author W.C. Chandler narrates Ollie's short life story that includes racial discrimination, a miscarriage of justice, and his untimely death. Ollie was one of the fourteen children of John and Leatha Chandler who lived in the rural community of Clyattville, Georgia. Life was not easy for a black family living in the south. And for Ollie, life was even more difficult. Mentally challenged, he wasn't able to finish school. But at age seventeen, Ollie was arrested for a murder he said he didn't commit. His Blood Cries Out for Justice tells the rest of Ollie's story from his time in jail to his trial by an all-white jury and his subsequent death. A moving tribute, His Blood Cries Out for Justice pays homage to this young life that was cut short. It reckons with history while also celebrating one family's deep love and that family's attempt to make sense of a tragedy.

Before the church can arise and shake the world for the Lord, it must bring back the truth of God's Word. The church needs to make the declaration to "Tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, so help us God." Wells of Living Waters is a message of the Holy Spirit for the church to remain strongly rooted in the foundational truths inherent in God's Word. Its purpose is to bring back those foundational teachings that Satan has been trying to stop or cover over within the church. In its desire to stay current and culturally relevant, the church has left behind some of the great biblical teachings in order not to offend those who attend. In the process, however, the church has dug all these new wells of teaching only to find many of them dry or worse, filled with poisonous water. Instead of trying to come up with all these new culturally relevant teachings, the church needs to go back and reopen those foundational truths where the true living waters of God's word can be found that has brought life and revival to millions. In Jeremiah 6:16, the Lord said, "Stand in the ways and see, and ask for the old paths, where the good way is, and walk in it; then you will find rest for your souls." Wells of Living Waters deals with the foundational truths of holiness, faithfulness, repentance, the blood of Jesus, judgment, hell, Satan, the person and purpose of the Holy Spirit, the authority of the Scriptures, fasting, and stewardship. This book is soundly based on scriptural authority as well as Pastor Lee's long-term experience in the discipling of God's people""to all who seek to bring pure, living water to a thirsty world.

John McConnell Jr. was the famed founder and visionary of Earth Day. McConnell's vision was one of creating a day of remembrance, solitude, and action to restore the broken human relationship to the land. Little acknowledged are McConnell's religious convictions or background. McConnell grew up in a Pentecostal home. In fact, McConnell's parents were both founding charter members of the Assemblies of God in 1914. His own grandfather had an even greater connection to the origins of Pentecostalism by being a personal participant at the Azusa Street Revival in Los Angeles in 1906. Earth Day, thus, began with strong religious convictions. McConnell, seeing the ecological demise through his religious background, envisioned a day where Christians could "show the power of prayer, the validity of their charity, and their practical concern for Earth's life and people." In the spirit of McConnell, today's Pentecostal and Charismatic theology has something to say about the earth. Blood Cries Out is a unique contribution by Pentecostal and Charismatic theologians and practitioners to the global conversation concerning ecological degradation, climate change, and ecological justice.
