ALVIN SLAUGHTER RELEASES NEW BOOK: "I Got It Back" Addresses Empowerment In A Whole New Way(September 22, 2006)
Warwick, New York -- Integrity Gospel recording artist Alvin Slaughter understands what it's like to be in a spiritual slump. Many Christians who experience this same sort of complacency don't recognize that remaining in this state has the potential of nullifying the very calling God has placed on their lives. Counteracting this type of thinking was the impetus for this Dove and Stellar Award nominee to pen one of the most inspirational writings to hit Christian bookshelves in a while. "I Got It Back!" is the first book from the well-known praise and worship leader, is a manuscript of hope and empowerment. The book contains practical keys (while debunking erroneous spiritual myths) aimed at giving the fire back to the Christian who has lost it. Slaughter, throughout the pages of "I Got It Back!," refers to his own testimony - an eviction, bankruptcies, numerous jobs and serious marriage woes - and his current deliverance - a twenty-eight year marriage, financial independence and a successful ministry. His transparency and willingness to expose himself emotionally is quite refreshing. "I opened my life up in this book because I wanted people to know that they are not experiencing anything that others have not at one time or another," says Slaughter. "The main thing is that people take control of their lives. I just want to see more Christians be more victorious and ultimately, happier as a result of it." Exercising the practical applications contained in the book moved the former lead vocalist of the multiple GRAMMY Award-winning Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir from pain to gain. "This is not the book to feed your pain or soothe your sadness to the point that you continue in a defeated posture of impotence in your life," writes Slaughter. "This is the book to jolt you into the posture that won't let you stay in the same place with the same mindset". With almost 175 jam-packed pages of pure insight, inspiration and revelation, "I Got It Back!" is a must-have for the "stuck" Christian. Through anecdotes and real-life accounts, the author shows the reader step-by-step how to get back the burning passion about life and God. Slaughter's goal is to have the reader walk away with the truths needed to step into his/her destiny. This overwhelming desire led the recording artist, known as a regular on the Trinity Broadcasting Network with one of the few musical ministries that has crossed cultural, racial and denominational barriers, to take notes from years of experience and compile them into an easy-to-read yet deeply intuitive writing. "My focus has expanded from just music to the ministry of music, inspirational speaking and writing - empowering people to not just live passively, sort of looking at their lives as something that they cannot control, but to live passionately, finding the courage and power to live their lives on God's terms for them and not someone else's," says Slaughter. "I Got It Back!" is available now at www.alvinslaughter.com, www.barnesandnoble.com, www.diesel_ebooks.com and www.amazon.com.
