We Keep Us Safe: Building Secure, Just, and Inclusive CommunitiesA groundbreaking new vision for public safety that overturns more than 200 years of fear based discrimination, othering, and punishment As the effects of aggressive policing and mass incarceration harm historically marginalized communities and tear families apart, how do we define safety?

A groundbreaking new vision for public safety that overturns more than 200 years of fear-based discrimination, othering, and punishment As the effects of aggressive policing and mass incarceration harm historically marginalized communities and tear families apart, how do we define safety? In a time when the most powerful institutions in the United States are embracing the repressive and racist systems that keep many communities struggling and in fear, we need to reimagine what safety means. Community leader and lawyer Zach Norris lays out a radical way to shift the conversation about public safety away from fear and punishment and toward growth and support systems for our families and communities. In order to truly be safe, we are going to have to dismantle our mentality of Us vs. Them. By bridging the divides and building relationships with one another, we can dedicate ourselves to strategic, smart investments--meaning resources directed toward our stability and well-being, like healthcare and housing, education and living-wage jobs. This is where real safety begins. We Keep Us Safe is a blueprint of how to hold people accountable while still holding them in community. The result reinstates full humanity and agency for everyone who has been dehumanized and traumatized, so they can participate fully in life, in society, and in the fabric of our democracy.Binding Type: Hardcover

Sometimes Life-Changing
Format: Paperback
I read this book for a class. Though there's nothing heretical within, I didn't agree with all of the author's viewpoints. Some points made were interesting, but the book wasn't of lasting interest to me. I gave it to my dad when I was done, and the book impacted his life, revealing God's love to him in a way he hadn't understood. He loved it so much he bought the sequel.

Well written
Format: Paperback
Randy Clark is a pillar in healing ministry. He spent so many years studying this specific area of ministry and the way he wrote this book was backed with research, data, and knowledgeable sources. I was very impressed by the way he put together this book and shared stories and testimonies of his experience with faith and healing. Highly recommend!

Personal experience welded together with history and logic.
Format: Kindle
I heard Randy Clark's name come up on a YouTube video of Bill Johnson's teaching. When I saw that this book was available on the Christian Author's Network on Facebook, I had to have a copy. I love the way Mr. Clark boldly lays out the different beliefs among people groups concerning healing. The way that he pulls together the questions all of us think concerning why some people are healed and others are not is so enlightening. His honesty and sincerity make the reading so easy to jump into. He does not condemn anyone for their beliefs, and is quick to lay out his own questions and answers as well as his own unanswered questions about healing. And the main attraction of this book to me is that it is all scripturally-based. In my opinion, Mr. Clark welds together the logical scientific train of thought with the undeniable Word of God. This is a great book full of personal experience, history and in-depth study of the scriptures concerning healing and how to receive a personal breakthrough and to be a conduit for the Holy Spirit to flow through for the healing of others. Great, anointed book!

Clear, Readable, Informative, Biblical, and Practical
Format: Kindle
This is one of the best guides to what healing ministry is all about. Clark covers a plethora of biblical, theological, and practical aspects of healing: objections, testimonies, questions, various schools of thought, and the mystery of some being healed and others not. Clark writes well and both those with theological degrees (like myself) and those relatively new to Christianity should be able to get something out of this book. I especially appreciate his irenic tone and his stalwart rejection of the dreadful notion that God wills suffering. I can’t think of a better introduction to healing ministry than this. Equal to, yes, but not better.
