Описание: A key period in the history of food cooperatives that continues to influence how we purchase organic food today Our notions of food co-ops generally don’t include images of baseball bat–wielding activists in the aisles. But in May 1975, this was the scene as a Marxist group known as the Co-op Organization took over the People’s Warehouse, a distribution center for more than a dozen small cooperative grocery stores in the Minneapolis area. The activist group’s goal: to curtail the sale of organic food. The People’s Warehouse quickly became one of the principal fronts in the political and social battle that Craig Upright explores in Grocery Activism. The story of the fraught relationship of new-wave cooperative grocery stores to the organic food industry, this book is an instructive case study in the history of activists intervening in capitalist markets to promote social change.Focusing on Minnesota, a state with both a long history of cooperative enterprise and the largest number of surviving independent cooperative stores, Grocery Activism looks back to the 1970s, when the mission of these organizations shifted from political activism to the promotion of natural and organic foods. Why, Upright asks, did two movements-promoting cooperative enterprise and sustainable agriculture-come together at this juncture? He analyzes the nexus of social movements and economic sociology, examining how new-wave cooperatives have pursued social change by imbuing products they sell with social values. Rather than trying to explain the success or failure of any individual cooperative, his work shows how members of this fraternity of organizations supported one another in their mutual quest to maintain fiscal solvency, promote better food-purchasing habits, support sustainable agricultural practices, and extol the virtues of cooperative organizing. A foundational chapter in the history of organic food, Grocery Activism clarifies the critical importance of this period in transforming the politics and economics of the grocery store in America.

Tell Them for Me is a book of evidence that we are a spirit being, not only a physical being. The death of Brian from the Vietnam War was the beginning of a spiritual awareness-when an angelic messenger came to Mary Pat the night before Brian's funeral and made the announcement through her grief that, "Jesus has a reason for you." This experience is only one of many that records the truth of a spiritual kingdom in which Jesus Christ is Lord. Mary Pat shared a bold supernatural fight of faith when her one-year-old baby girl became paralyzed by a malignant cancer: a neuroblastoma in her spine. Mary Pat cast out a demonic spirit of cancer and saw it leave her child's back in the name of Jesus through His holy blood; her daughter was healed. Growing up in a home where domestic violence, child abuse, and alcoholism were experienced, Tell Them for Me shows that family dysfunction has no preference to social class, and spirit can overcome any physical or emotional trauma on earth. Tell Them for Me also resounds with grace for forgiveness when relationships fail or life may seem overwhelming. Joy prevails through the love of a God Who created us in His image and does not leave us.

Some of the underlying aspects of an upright heart are Purity, repentance and obedience, without which no one can enter into the throne room of God and worship in his presence.
