Stigma Our Social Leprosy Jackson Michael McIntosh

Stigma Our Social Leprosy is a Christian and inspirational composition on the effects of stigma on the life of the socially tainted persons in today's world. Especially considered are ex-offenders reentering societal residency. The instant reporting of news and other social media platforms engender overwhelming consequences which proliferate verdicts, on the unsubstantiated committal of scorned ethical breaches in our world. Rev. Jackson Michael McIntosh through the counsel and lives of Biblical characters, real life celebrities, and hypothetical performers, compare and contrast the exhibited attitudinal behavior regarding the leprosy disease in Biblical times, and the loathsome psychological indictments of social stigma of nowadays. The inherent rejection, hopeless despair, and the pain of self-condemnation, are called out and channeled through the redemptive pathways of institutions of corrections, training, entrepreneurial support, and faith based operatives. Recovery strategies and triumphant philosophies are its guiding light, and instructively come alive like the warmth of a morning sunrise after a dark and stormy night. The timely opinions of the book are shining in every chapter as beacons, to direct the challenging journeys of forgiveness, restoration, civil elevation and social revitalization.
