Bishop Edwards


Book Description

Bishop Edwards: A Gospel for African American Workers During the Age of Obama is a moving and exhilarating story of a bishop in the African Methodist Episcopal (AME) Church in the city of Baltimore. This fictional minister of the gospel has been imprisoned for his social conservative views of gender relations and marriage, as well as for his activism on behalf of aggrieved African American workers. From federal prison, this faithful minister addresses his constituents, which is a predominant African American trade union, through twenty-one formal letters (i.e., epistles). Borrowing heavily from the Christian teachings of the Apostle Paul and Martin Luther King, Jr., the topics of these epistles range from marriage equality, gender conflict, racial conflict, class conflict, trafficking in illegal immigrants, the sex trade, the deterioration of the African American family, political economy, law, and religion--all in an effort to defend his Christian faith and to vindicate the universal struggle for peace and social justice.




Drawn Out, Sworn In


Book Description

It was a surprise when one of the principal members of this endeavor contacted me to write a foreword. To this dear friend, I thank you for the opportunity, and more so, for your friendship. I will do my best to answer accordingly. I like to think in the shower. Ive never been sure why, but I often find myself mulling over any range of topics there. It is a refuge of sorts. A place where the normal distractions of life can be pushed aside, where my senses fade away and my mind can focus on the topic at hand. It was there that I found myself in a crisis. I was ignorant, and I didnt particularly like the idea of that revelation.




THE TUBBY THEORY FROM TOPEKA


Book Description

It is time for Americans and their physicians to learn that there is more to do to prevent heart attacks and strokes. Everyone must learn the difference between LDL-C and LDL-P and non-HDL cholesterol (The Tubby Factor). Everyone must learn what a calcium score and a carotid intima thickness ultrasound does to detect subclinical atherosclerosis. My book, The Tubby Theory from Topeka teaches the above and demonstrates how I used the above tests to prevent heart disease and stroke and to also regress plaque in the arteries in my medical practice in Topeka for the last two years. My goal is to change the Paradigm of preventive medicine in America. The new paradigm is to find subclinical atherosclerosis early with a calcium score and a CIMT to then treat it to stabilize the vulnerable plaque from inflammation and rupture. Rupture of the plaque causes sudden death. In 1 of 3 patients, SUDDEN DEATH is the first sign of heart disease. Reference: Lipoprotein Management in Patients with Cardiometabolic Risk, Brunzell et al, JACC. 2008; 51: 1513 Tim Russert died one year ago of sudden death. The media reported nothing more could have been done for him. Non-HDL cholesterol goal of 40 inches for men and >35 inches for men or if you are diabetic.

My Stephania

One Woman’s Beautiful Legacy Unfolds in My Stephania. The new book tells a heartwarming tale about faith, love, hope, and legacy on January 20, 2025. Winston Lacaze is set to deliver his inaugural address as the new president of the United States. Only thirty-eight, he is the youngest to ever accomplish such a feat and he has God and Stephania to thank for it. Readers can follow an amazing legacy unfold in My Stephania, a novel by Johnnie Lee Moore Jr. Many people didn’t think that Winston Lacaze had a legitimate chance against his two formidable opponents. It was like David against two Goliaths. Nevertheless, he defied the odds and became the first independent candidate to be elected president of the United States. He reached out to every race, gender, religion, age, or creed. He reached out to the rich and poor. He was a man of honest integrity and faith. As he stood at the inaugural, he was overcome with emotion and gratitude when he thought of the beautiful Native American female named Stephania Frost. Every time thoughts of Stephania enveloped his mind, President Lacaze became overwhelmed with emotions. Her graceful beauty forever changed his life, and President Lacaze couldn’t thank her enough. Stephania had a warm and special place in his heart, and he couldn’t stop thinking about her. But Stephania was not his wife. Nor was she his mother. In fact, she wasn’t even related to him. Readers can find out more about this special woman and the wonderful legacy she left behind as her story unravels in My Stephania.
