DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Gifts have been given and received in all eras and societies; gifts are part of a universal human exchange. The importance of creating and sustaining social bonds with the help of gifts is widely acknowledged by social scientists, not only from anthropological but also from economic, sociological, and political science perspectives. Contemporary anti-corruption campaigns, however, have led gifts to be viewed with ever-increasing suspicion, because it is feared that the social bonds created by gift giving may contaminate professional decision-making. Suspicious Gifts investigates the sensitive issue of gift exchanges and how they become an object of contention. Malin akerstro;m considers the moral dilemmas presented by bribes and gift giving as experienced by Swedish aid workers and professionals working in the public sector, business, and adoption agencies. She also deals with professionals' interaction with foreign officials or contractors. Often a gift is just that, although sometimes the gift giving may be seen by others as a bribe. akerstro;m highlights the tensions between strict regulations designed to prevent corruption with the human affection for the institution of gift giving. She argues that bribes and gifts are important social phenomena because they are windows into classic sociological and anthropological research issues concerning interaction, social control, exchange, and rituals. This unique analysis will be of keen interest to all sociologists, public officials, and professionals.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →The Lord’s desire is for all believers to be endued with and demonstrate the power of the Holy Spirit to bear witness to who He is. We are to be His witnesses everywhere, and always. The gifts of the Spirit are like our “toolbox,” containing tools given to us to manifest the power of the Holy Spirit, so that the Lord Jesus will be glorified, and people will be touched, ministered to, and transformed, everywhere we go. The Holy Spirit distributes and manifests these gifts as He wills. But as co-workers with Him, we must earnestly desire these gifts and we must learn how to yield, cooperate, and properly release these gifts so that people will be ministered to as He desires, and Jesus will be glorified. Often, because we do not know how to cooperate with the Holy Spirit, we either quench, grieve or even resist His expressions through us. This book is intended to be a simple and easy to use training manual to help believers understand and learn how to flow with the Holy Spirit to release the gifts of the Spirit. The goal is to see believers moving and releasing the gifts of the Spirit regularly, anywhere, and at any time as the Spirit of the Lord moves through them.
