Walking Tall In Babylon

Courageous Parenting for Dangerous Times. We live in frightening times, when stories of terrorism and child abductions lead the evening news, and kids regularly experiment with such dangers as drugs, alcohol, and premarital sex, raves and the occult. At such times, it seems to many parents that the world is falling apart. Nothing is more terrifying than sending our children out into a dangerous world. But what can we really do to protect our kids? You Can Lead Your Family Out of Fear and Into Effective, Godly Living. Scripture tells us that centuries ago, Daniel and his friends also faced a hostile world. Yet God provided a way for them to “walk tall in Babylon.” Not only did God keep them safe, he allowed them to profoundly affect the culture they touched–and he can protect and strengthen your kids in the same way.

The church has lost its vision under the captivity of modern day Babylon! What if the world doesn't need a duplicate of the person you aspire to be? What if God has planted a vision in you that would change the trajectory of the entire church? This concept is nearly impossible to grasp in a society that bullies and intimidates to keep people in their make believe cages, especially in the spirit realm. Unfortunately, much of the church has taken on this identity of slavery to the point of remaining stagnate to appease a secular society and church. As referenced in scripture and throughout this text, God is up to something new in a hungry generation! It takes the anointing of the Holy Spirit to bring a big vision to life in dead regions. When all hope has been lost, God is looking to raise up a remnant generation of visionaries that are willing to run courageously out of their cages and into the heart of the Father! In this book, evangelist Nik Walker provides insight and wisdom based on scripture and experiences of casting big vision in small places. When an entire generation is crying out for the real thing, it is time for a remnant to walk tall! Walking Tall In Babylon contains insight and experiences from scripture in areas such as: -Living in your created identity-Refusing to live in what "used to be" -Keeping your circle refined-The necessity of hunger -Mentalities that kill your vision -Why many have lost sight of their seeds-Removing the lens of a slave-Keeping your passions from burning you out-Seeing what the bird sees-What if my spiritual womb is barren? No longer are we simply waiting on a move of God. We are a move of God! Read how God will bring a vision to life that will change the landscape of a nation... through you!

Raising children to be Godly and wise in a perilous world.

James Wolcott’s career as a critic has been unmatched, from his early Seventies dispatches for The Village Voice to the literary coverage made him equally feared and famous to his must-read reports on the cultural weather for Vanity Fair. Bringing together his best work from across the decades, this collection shows Wolcott as connoisseur, intrepid reporter, memoirist, and necessary naysayer. We begin with “O.K. Corral Revisited,” Wolcott’s career-launching account of the famed Norman Mailer–Gore Vidal dust-off on the original Dick Cavett Show. He goes on to consider (or reconsider) the towering figures of our culture, among them Lena Dunham Patti Smith, Johnny Carson, Woody Allen, and John Cheever. And we witness his legendary takedowns, which have entered into the literary lore of our time. In an age where a great deal of back scratching and softball pitching pass for criticism, Critical Mass offers a bracing taste of the real thing.

An anthology of short fiction captures characters in the midst of coping with life's uncertainties, from a child who practices the piano on paper keys, to an expectant mother who discovers the tragic story of her new home's previous inhabitants.
