| We all know that everything we have is a gift from God. But sometimes it's hard to know just how to give back to God. How much is enough? What does the Bible really say? What should giving look like in our everyday lives? Filled with good news for followers of Jesus, Mark Allan Powell's Giving to God shows Christians the way to a better life and a better relationship with their money ... and with God.Powell presents stewardship as an act of worship, an expression of faith, and a discipline for spiritual growth. Faithful use of our time, talents, and money starts with a deep, satisfying relationship with the God to whom we belong. We can then learn, says Powell, to give gladly and generously out of our heartfelt connection with God. Informative, concise, and eminently practical (including discussion questions), Giving to God gives us resources for best using the treasures, material and otherwise, that God has given us. |

| In her follow-up to Getting It Together, Carol Wehrheim presents a concise, accessible resource to help families better understand the importance of stewardship: in the family, in the congregation, in the community, and in the world. Reminding us that stewardship is about much more than money, Wehrheim clearly illustrates a more holistic understanding of the concept to include careful consideration of the choices we make that show the role Christian discipleship plays in our lives. She skillfully analyzes biblical passages and identifies spiritual practices intrinsic to stewardship as a way of helping families respond to their call to be stewards in today's world. Including both a participant's section and a leader's guide, Giving Together is ideal for group or family study. |

| Following in the footsteps of his father’s quartet members like Gospel/R&B legends Sam Cooke and Lou Rawls - there’s no better word to describe Fuzzy’s success as an artist - than destiny! Fuzzy’s smooth soulful, vocals wrap effortlessly around contemporary rhythms for a signature sound that is sure to ignite broad appeal among both new and die-hard gospel buyers when his MCG Records CD titled Glad To Be is introduced on January 16, 2007. The road to gospel greatness began in Washington D.C., for young Lynn “Fuzzy” Taylor as he . rst listened to and then traveled and sang with his father, Spencer Taylor’s nationally renowned gospel quartet, the Highway QC’s, which included his late uncle R&B superstar, Johnny Taylor. After becoming sidetracked for a while by R&B music during his Howard University days, “Fuzzy” turned an impromptu audition with rappers Salt N’ Peppa into a nearly five year national touring gig singing back-up with this hit platinum selling act. A life changing 2001 commitment to Christ returned “Fuzzy” to his musical and religious roots where he has devoted the past five years to further polishing his distinctive vocals and building a fan base that is second to none among newer gospel artists. Considering his upbringing at the feet of one of gospel‘s great quartet masters, as well as his multiple influences in secular and gospel music, “Fuzzy’s” MCG debut Glad To Be treats listeners to a unique blend of gospel music that can only be acknowledged as a tribute to his musical and spiritual destiny. |
