This is the story of the enlightenment of one young man who lived through the Civil Rights Movement, who sympathized with it, cheered for it even, loved the music of it; but who didn't do anything significant about it. It will take you from WW2 to Viet Nam, from the murder of Emmet Till to the integration of Little Rock Central High School and from a Black Boy Scout Camp to James Meredith's admission to Ole Miss. It tells of our adoption of an eleven-year-old Black boy, of the mother who ran away and the church that ran away, of my rescue by a Nigerian man, and of our successful efforts to get Black foster children adopted. In the end it asks what Jesus would do and it suggests the beginning of a solution to our current racial issues.
This book will probably not change who you vote for, but it may change why you vote for them. The premise is that God did not call us to legislate people to righteousness. Rather, he called us to lead people to Godliness by gentle teaching and preaching snd by example. It is a quick read for less than $8. It takes each of several things Christians worry about and puts them in a different context - one in which our focus is on eternity.
If "gospel" is a religious word meaning "good news," why does it seem so often that churches are full of bad news? The existence of God is good news because it means that this life, with all its pains and disappointments, is not all there is. Without God, our life here is the whole story. The good news of the Bible includes these five promises: 1. There is nothing in this world we need to worry about. 2. There is nothing in this world we need to be afraid of. 3. You don't even need to be concerned about dying. 4. You are being invited into a family whose logo is that they love each other. 5. This world is not your permanent home.
A Nice Boy from a Good Family.... tells all!Bringing together the best of David May's nonfiction, A Nice Boy from a Good Family recalls episodes from a life lived in "Interesting Times." Beginning with a pre-adolescent obsession with comic books that lead to his eventual sexual awakening, and ending in the spiritual journey necessitated by the AIDS epidemic and his own HIV status, May is unflinching as he narrates the carefree years before AIDS through the subsequent years of desperation and loss. With few regrets, May describes his life as a sexually active and eager young man that embraced sadomasochism in the in the late 1970s, through the loss of his Daddy in 1992, his own brush with death, and the subsequent re-embracement of life and hope with his new Sir in the 1990s.
LoveFrom Amsterdam to San Francisco, from New England to Seattle, from Chicago to Los Angeles, these eleven stories explore the love leather men feel for each and for their tribe. The exhilaration of first love, the desolation of widowhood, the enduring male friendship, the mature love of an established Master/slave couple, and the spiritual rebirth that love offers the wounded -- these are all parts of leather men's lives, and they are also the parts of our stories that are seldom told.* Twice widowed and reluctant to open his heart again, a Daddy finds happiness with a young, local rocker.* A young Dutchman finds love in submission to the handsome Jew he and his family are hiding in their attic during the World War Two. * A leather top falls in love with another man's boy, carrying a torch for the young man whose very name is unknown to him.* Phone sex leads to complications, and finally to a young man's proper place - kneeling at his lover's booted feet.* A jaded
Madrugada gathers nine of David Mays early stories, stories about a circle of friends exploring San Franciscos infamous Folsom Street from the apex of its notoriety to the beginning of its decline as sexual haven for leather men. While covering much of the terrain familiar to readers of SM erotica, these stores go further, exploring the implications of Male Leathers Cultures codes and iconography. Madrugada celebrates the power, pain and pleasure of men loving men, honoring our history of raw sexual energy. First published in 1997, Madrugada was called lyrical or evocative by some, it later became a part of the permanent library at the Leather Archives in Chicago. Dare to explore the Time Between Midnight and Dawn, a time when inner yearnings are met, when fantasies are realized -- a time when frightening truths are faced for the first (and sometimes the last) time, a time wherein four young men find themselves both lost and found
