Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pastor Wilbert L. Watson Serving God with a genuine heart is real. This book is about being real with God and serving him wholeheartedly, not as a pretender. Titus 1:16 (KJV) says, "They profess that they know God; but in works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate." God is not looking for pretenders; he is looking for imitators of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Professing or claiming to know God and then denying him every day makes one a hypocrite or pretender. I want to encourage everyone who reads this book to understand the importance of showing God real love through his or her loving service and works. Furthermore, recognize any issues within oneself that hinder realness in serving God. God is not fooled by anyone, and he doesn't want his people to be fooled either. Pretenders will always be exposed, but God wants us to be aware that there are many pretenders in the world. It's important not to pretend to be something or someone you're not concerning the Almighty God. When you read my book, you will fully understand that there is nothing or no one that can hide from God. We are all an open book to God. This book will provide real clues or signs that show whether your heart, work, service, worship, praise, and relationship with God are real. 0

Download or read book Be Real written by Rick Bezet and published by Baker Books. This book was released on 2014-04-01 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We live in a world of fakers. Rather than being real with each other, we present a carefully crafted persona that hides our faults and magnifies our good qualities. But inside we long to be loved, warts and all. We long to stop hiding from each other--and especially from God. With candor and clarity, pastor Rick Bezet calls readers to a life built on authenticity, showing that the way to true freedom lies through reclaiming our hearts, reviving our souls, and renewing our minds in light of what God has done for us through Jesus Christ. Through biblical stories and (often funny) personal examples, Bezet encourages readers to live with passion, integrity, and perseverance. He releases readers from the spiritual death that comes with pretending and leads them into a new life characterized by transparency rather than fear.

While her friends wish for meet cutes worthy of their favorite rom-coms, Julia is ready to give up on love. Swiping right has replaced getting swept off your feet and good old-fashioned romance has become, well, old-fashioned. A writer for a popular website, love becomes the last thing on her mind when impending layoffs threaten her job. As Julia searches for the ultimate pitch to impress her boss, she stumbles upon a resort offering guests a chance to live out their romantic comedy dreams. Real life dating is so bleak, who wouldn't want to spend a week in a fantasy rom-com world with your best friends? At the resort, Julia literally falls into a not-quite-meet-cute involving an aggressive seagull and an adorably awkward guy named Luke who is also participating in the rom-com experience. Julia hides the fact she is there to do a story, but Luke harbors a few secrets of his own. Among further encounters with thieving seagulls, a gaggle of corgis, kisses in the rain, and even a karaoke serenade, their feelings deepen quickly. But could their love be real when they haven't been honest about their true identities? Once the fantasy is over, can they have a relationship in the real world? In her trade paperback debut, Melonie Johnson brings her signature humor, sexy romance, and strong female friendships in this hilarious romantic comedy about finding perfectly imperfect love, Too Good to Be Real.

Download or read book Abstractionist Aesthetics written by Phillip Brian Harper and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2015-12-25 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An artistic discussion on the critical potential of African American expressive culture In a major reassessment of African American culture, Phillip Brian Harper intervenes in the ongoing debate about the “proper” depiction of black people. He advocates for African American aesthetic abstractionism—a representational mode whereby an artwork, rather than striving for realist verisimilitude, vigorously asserts its essentially artificial character. Maintaining that realist representation reaffirms the very social facts that it might have been understood to challenge, Harper contends that abstractionism shows up the actual constructedness of those facts, thereby subjecting them to critical scrutiny and making them amenable to transformation. Arguing against the need for “positive” representations, Abstractionist Aesthetics displaces realism as the primary mode of African American representational aesthetics, re-centers literature as a principal site of African American cultural politics, and elevates experimental prose within the domain of African American literature. Drawing on examples across a variety of artistic production, including the visual work of Fred Wilson and Kara Walker, the music of Billie Holiday and Cecil Taylor, and the prose and verse writings of Ntozake Shange, Alice Walker, and John Keene, this book poses urgent questions about how racial blackness is made to assume certain social meanings. In the process, African American aesthetics are upended, rendering abstractionism as the most powerful modality for Black representation.
