John Rollin Ridge is the first full-length biography of a Cherokee whose best revenge was in writing well. A cross between Lord Byron, the romantic poet who made things happen, and Joaquin Murieta, the legendary bandit he would immortalize, John Rollin Ridge was a controversial, celebrated, and self-cast exile.Ridge was born to a prominent Cherokee Indian family in 1827, a tumultuous and violent time when the state of Georgia was trying to impose its sovereignty on the Cherokee Nation and whites were pressing against its borders. James W. Parins places Ridge in the circle of his family and recreates the circumstances surrounding the assassination of his father (before his eyes) and his grandfather and uncle by rival Cherokees, led by John Ross. Eventful chapters portray the boy's flight with his mother and her family to Arkansas, his classical education there, his killing of a Ross loyalist and subsequent exile in California during the gold rush, his talent as a romantic poet and author, and his career as a journalist. To the end of his life, Ridge advocated the Cherokees' assimilation into white society.

Wonderful Insight to the Seer Prophetic Ministry…Those Who Are Called To This Ministry Will Be Greatly Benefitted!
Format: Kindle
I just finished reading this book and I thought it was fantastic. It is the first book I've read on the seer prophetic ministry. I was an atheist for years, but then got supernaturally saved and baptized in the Holy Spirit at the same time and immediately began moving in dreams and visions. I thought it was odd that I would mostly receive revelation for myself, others, and the church through dreams, rather than ministering to a person and receiving a word as I was speaking to them. I would pray and ask God to give me revelation through visions as I would minister in person on the spot but it would very rarely happen. I learned through this book that I'm actually a seer and received my calling last year. I then found this book and felt it clearly outlined my gift and helped me to understand who I am and how God made me to function. The seer ministry has never been taught in any church I have attended and I've been to plenty charismatic churches. I find this sad but I believe it won't always be so. There's also an impartation from this book. Before anyone dings me on that, remember that even in the bible, the anointing was transferred through handkerchiefs. I felt this book was pretty solid biblically and James speaks with a heart of love. You will learn more about this ministry and if you're already functioning in it, you may learn some great nuggets and may even be sharpened like I was. I'm looking forward to reading more on this awesome ministry. Thank you James for sharing your wisdom and insight. I'm actually reading it a second time, that's how great it is. Give it a try, you won't be disappointed!

A GOD-centric UPDATE that guides you to the Throne Room.
I was given the ORIGINAL version of this book as a gift—long before I knew about the prophetic as a realm ALL Believers can enter. I had several false starts reading the book. With each round of attempting to read it I stopped short for the same reason—I felt there was more emphasis on experiences and the author’s revelations than on the Word of God.
Fast forward to several years later, I decided to read this book again BUT by this time I had my own personal revelations and substantial teaching about the prophetic. I was/am still a WORD girl so as I prepared to read it I discovered THIS EXPANDED EDITION and boy was it a wayyyyyyy different read. EVERY IOTA of teaching is anchored in the word of God and turns it all back to the Godhead. There are endless stories of his or other giants’ personal experiences but EVERY account is in the framework of the Word of God. The Godhead is exalted in this book. EVERYTHING else is secondary. I absolutely loved this new writing voice—such that I have since bought another book by the author and I plan to read more of his works.
At the end of the day, heavenly encounters are purposed by God to draw us and others into deeper relationship with Him. The encounters and revelations are not the endpoint, HE is—His Word, His will, and His way. This is the thesis statement of this book and I love it!!!!!!!!!!!!
