Book Description
Ever since its emergence in colonial-era Cuba, Afro-Cuban Santería (or Lucumí) has displayed a complex dynamic of continuity and change in its institutions, rituals, and iconography. In Santería Enthroned, David H. Brown combines art history, cultural anthropology, and ethnohistory to show how Africans and their descendants have developed novel forms of religious practice in the face of relentless oppression. Focusing on the royal throne as a potent metaphor in Santería belief and practice, Brown shows how negotiation among ideologically competing interests have shaped the religion's symbols, rituals, and institutions from the nineteenth century to the present. Rich case studies of change in Cuba and the United States, including a New Jersey temple and South Carolina's Oyotunji Village, reveal patterns of innovation similar to those found among rival Yoruba kingdoms in Nigeria. Throughout, Brown argues for a theoretical perspective on culture as a field of potential strategies and "usable pasts" that actors draw upon to craft new forms and identities—a perspective that will be invaluable to all students of the African Diaspora.

Peter Wagner (1930 - 2016) Live like you are seated with Christ in the Heavenly Places! In Ephesians 2:6, the apostle Paul tells us that, God raised us up with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms (NIV). Jeff Jansen, author and founder of Global Fire Ministries International, teaches that this status is not just an eternal reward, but also a present reality.

Book Description
The fires of worship and prayer are burning in the nations! In 1000 B.C. King David led Israel into a radical reformation and spiritual revolution when he built a throne of unceasing worship and prayer right in the governmental center of the nation. Since then thousands of groups have set out to pioneer expressions of 24-7 worship and prayer. From the underground church of Northern Iraq, to the entertainment capitol of Hollywood, CA the church is crying out night and day! What is God up to? Why this emphasis on worship and prayer? Could it be that the modern worship and prayer movement is restoration of David's Tabernacle? Enthroned will: *Explore the heart, patterns and principles of the Tabernacle of David *Delve into Biblical foundations for the night and day worship and prayer movement *Discuss the role of prayer and worship for igniting revival, and bringing in the harvest *Provoke you to a life long pursuit of the presence of God *Give practical insight and blueprints for pioneering night and day worship and prayer.
