Recent concerns about energy security in the US have drawn greater attention to agriculture's role as a producer and consumer of energy. Agriculturally-derived energy sources such as ethanol, biodiesel, biomass, and windpower presently supply between 0.3% and 0.50% of the energy consumed in the US. Organized into two parts, the first section of this book examines agriculture's role as a producer and consumer of energy, the integration of biomass energy into the US energy systems, a policy overview, and outlooks for energy production and consumption. The second section is a compendium of current research including the economic viability of ethanol and biodiesel; energy conservation and efficiency in agriculture; new methods and technologies; and environmental impacts and considerations.

Millions of modern churchgoers are spiritually asleep. As Christian leaders have compromised the gospel, God's people have fallen prey to lust, divorce, consumerism, false teaching, and more. Strong Christians everywhere wonder if God will turn the tide, while many sleepy churchgoers ask, "can I ever wake up?"In Samuel's day, Israel's spiritual climate had also grown cold. Both priest and people lived in darkness; therefore, "the word of the Lord was rare" (1 Samuel 3:1 ESV). But one night, God awakened young Samuel as he lay by the altar. Breaking heaven's silence, God called Samuel by name, purified his heart, opened his eyes to eternity, and activated his prophetic calling. Then, God used Samuel's prophetic ministry to awaken Israel and restore His glory in the land. As a result, "Israel served the Lord alone!" (1 Samuel 7:4 NASB).In Samuels Arising, former Brownsville Revival School of Ministry president Keith Collins reminds us that Samuel's God is still on the move. As God awakened Samuel, God waits to awaken you from spiritual sleepiness, recover your gospel vision, and ignite your prophetic calling to win the lost and revive the saved! Then, God can use you to turn the tide of compromise in your generation. Through this guide to personal revival, God calls: "Samuels, arise!"
