By owning their families, free colored men and women could protect them against oppressive local laws.

This audiobook, written by a professor of psychology after years of intensive case study, offers a lucid explanation of the meanings behind dream symbols.

John Calvin (1509-1564) was a theologian, pastor and reformer in Geneva during the Protestant Reformation. He was a principal figure in the development of the system of Christian theology later called Calvinism. This collection of prayers comes from his writings on the book of Hosea.

The macho society that held John Wayne as a role model has created an emotional wasteland where 80 percent of men are unable to accurately express their feelings, and that same percentage feel estranged from their fathers. The stifled male, disconnected and out of touch, fills the void with apathy or anger, and the toll is staggering: short, unhealthy lives, ruined relationships, and damaged children. This destructive behavior repeats itself in the next generation as the sins of the father continue the cycle.

The theological insights of Calvin and the Reformers not only provided the theological basis to support the future massive missionary expansion of Protestant churches, but emphasises the Church mission as a consequence of their theology. This sermon by the Reformer focuses on St. Paul and his command to pray for all people. The mercy of God extends to all the world, he argues, and is not anymore restricted to only a specific group.
