Can anyone doubt betrayal is a part of our human fabric? We can see it everywhere in epic proportions, depending on media coverage and personal experiences.

Beyond Betrayal unpacks life after betrayal as authors Jerry Price and Tom Roy explore the twists and turns of a betrayer’s identity. Contending with the wounds everyone faces in recovering from the impact of betrayal, they also examine God’s prescription for healing. Drawing upon their life experiences and biblical insights, Price and Roy offer their table talks as a conversational approach to this unspeakable heartbreak.

They take an unusual view of betrayal, seeing it as a core condition of mankind’s heart or soulfulness. Jesus talked about a man gaining the whole world and still losing his own soul, demonstrating that everyone possesses this tendency for self-betrayal. If we are to experience the wholeness of being that God longs for us to enjoy, we must address the issue of betrayal, a factor in the story of nearly every relationship dating back to the dawn of creation.

Beyond Betrayal avoids the quick, easy answers in order to navigate tough issues underlining the hurt and encourages discussion with reflective questions. Price and Roy challenge all of us to rebuild trust levels out of a hope that doesn’t define anyone by the treachery of deceit.

Returning for Personal Revival is a practical, clear study guide that will lead you to sound Biblical insights that have life changing power. Larry White’s inspirational personal testimony, along with his careful Bible study, and judicious use of the Christian devotional classics make this a tremendous tool for personal devotions, small group studies or even a guide for churches to use to experience revival. The comments on the difference between reconciliation and forgiveness are worth the price of the study alone. Returning for Personal Revival is a great contribution to American devotional studies. -Emil Turner Executive Director, Arkansas Baptist State Convention Turn your heart to God and discover victory in Christ with this Bible study that helps you evaluate your spiritual condition. By forging a closer relationship with God, you will discover deeper joy and freedom in daily living. It is important to learn to cherish Jesus more if you want to fill in “The Great Divide” between where you are now and where He wants you to be spiritually. I have known Bro. Larry White for several years. I have always respected him to be a man who has a tremendous heart for God. Returning for Personal Revival has the anointing of the Holy Spirit upon it. I have worked through other books and studies, but I have never been touched as deeply as I have by this one. There is new passion for God and new joy in ministry. In my preaching, I have a fresh freedom and power that I’ve never experienced as consistently as I am now. God has undoubtedly raised up this man and this study for such a time as this. Every pastor and layperson should read this book. -Greg Dills Pastor, First Baptist Church, Matthews, NC

In a worldly sense, robbery is a heinous, bodacious crime. More so, in the sense of God, robbery is sinful. Herein, there exists double penalty with double punishment concerning everyday life and life eternal. The Lord reveals through Reverend Turpin the impact robbing God has on Him, you, the church, and all humankind. Actually, what we don’t know destroys us. God says it best, “My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge” (Hos. 4:6). Therefore, it is the prayer and purpose of this work for you to be edified in and released from the sin in robbery.

“It has been well said that Stewardship is not a way of financing a church; instead financing a church is an excellent way of implementing stewardship. Reverend Turpin’s book, The Sin In Robbery 33 Ways We Rob God, gladly recognizes this axiom and lays out a crystal clear biblical case for support of the tithe.”

“Reverend Ira Turpin has made an invaluable contribution to Christian stewardship in this revolutionary work on tithing. This is a work of art that opens our minds and hearts to giving God all that is due Him.”
Reverend Dr. Harry L. Seawright, Pastor
Union Bethel AME Church
Brandywine, Maryland

“The Sin In Robbery 33 Ways We Rob God is transcendent in its teachings, nurturing, and insight because Reverend Turpin approaches all issues through the Holy prism of God’s Word.”
