The Darkest Side Of Employment: a minorities perspective
By: John Codrington
This book explores racism and discrimination from a minority's perspective. It looks into the root causes of minorities' struggles for competitive and equal employment in America, especially for former prisoners. The author shows how various systems are designed to keep people of color off balance and oppressed through job discrimination through a lack of education and misinformation among themselves. The book discusses how their level of obedience and faith in the Creator affects whether they are employable. However, the book lets readers know that through the Creator, all things are possible. It explores what it's like for the underserved, ex-offender, the homeless and welfare recipients and what they face daily. The influence that it has on youth and families and how the hiring system affects self-worth and doubts as human beings is discussed in the book. When affirmative action is denied that will harm people of color. John Codrington offers advice to those looking for employment and for living life after incarceration. He promotes love as the central message and provides assistance to minorities to help them through what they face every day in the land of free and home of the brave.

Division within the Family. But GOD can Fix that.
Families in the United States are spiritually broken. Division within the Family shows you that families have pulled away from God's grace through ungodly worldly issues. Which they are living under a generational curse due to brokenness in one's soul. The lack of spiritual understanding and belief in God is causing many families to separate from each other and away from God's Holy word. But, there is hope for all families because God can fix that, and the problems families are facing through his grace and mercy. God provides spiritual healing to the lost and the broken-hearted. This book will speak to your heart of God's love for uniting families, which he reveals in his word, when he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life" (John 3:16, KJV). So let's all unite in love, knowing that we will sit in judgement at the seat of Jesus Christ.

You must go read this book. The authenticity and transparency is refreshing. The way the author did a phenomenal job of braking down how the family dynamics creat different dysfunctions, mainly because we didn’t center our families with God. I can definitely relate and I’m sure anyone who reads will be blessed to help cope and bring healing to their families for generations to come!
