Book excerpt: This book sounds a bold call for loyalty to God and to God's Davids. God's Davids are leaders-male and female-who are safest to follow because of their unwavering passion to be intimate with Christ. God is turning the hearts of fathers to the children, and giving the children a heart of loyalty to the fathers. Knowing the power of loyalty to produce Kingdom blessing at every level, Satan has done everything in his power to give this subject a bad reputation. But today's generation isn't buying it anymore. Now, more than ever, the bride of Christ is giving her heart with intense loyalty to her Beloved and preparing eagerly for His return. Get ready, this book could rock your world.

Download or read book The Cost of Loyalty written by Tim Bakken and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2020-02-18 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Kirkus Reviews Best Book of 2020 A courageous and damning look at the destruction wrought by the arrogance, incompetence, and duplicity prevalent in the U.S. military-from the inside perspective of a West Point professor of law. Veneration for the military is a deeply embedded but fatal flaw in America's collective identity. In twenty years at West Point, whistleblower Tim Bakken has come to understand how unquestioned faith isolates the U.S. armed forces from civil society and leads to catastrophe. Pervaded by chronic deceit, the military's insular culture elevates blind loyalty above all other values. The consequences are undeniably grim: failure in every war since World War II, millions of lives lost around the globe, and trillions of dollars wasted. Bakken makes the case that the culture he has observed at West Point influences whether America starts wars and how it prosecutes them. Despite fabricated admissions data, rampant cheating, epidemics of sexual assault, archaic curriculums, and shoddy teaching, the military academies produce officers who maintain their privileges at any cost to the nation. Any dissenter is crushed. Bakken revisits all the major wars the United States has fought, from Korea to the current debacles in the Middle East, to show how the military culture produces one failure after another. The Cost of Loyalty is a powerful, multifaceted revelation about the United States and its singular source of pride. One of the few federal employees ever to win a whistleblowing case against the U.S. military, Bakken, in this brave, timely, and urgently necessary book, and at great personal risk, helps us understand why America loses wars.

Loyalty in Our Time: Does Loyalty Matter Anymore? raises some disturbing issues.From the latter part of the 20th century, society has become transfixed and divided by the growing controversy surrounding loyalty, which continues to tug at the very fabric of our society. The controversy continues in all forms of the media and on the Internet. News items have highlighted the perceived breakdown in loyalty across the board, within organisations, institutions, associations, political parties, government, partnerships, sporting clubs and teams."Loyalty is dead!" has become a common mournful cry.

Download or read book The Banality of Evil written by Bernard J. Bergen and published by Rowman & Littlefield Publishers. This book was released on 2000-01-01 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This highly original book is the first to explore the political and philosophical consequences of Hannah Arendt's concept of 'the banality of evil,' a term she used to describe Adolph Eichmann, architect of the Nazi 'final solution.' According to Bernard J. Bergen, the questions that preoccupied Arendt were the meaning and significance of the Nazi genocide to our modern times. As Bergen describes Arendt's struggle to understand 'the banality of evil,' he shows how Arendt redefined the meaning of our most treasured political concepts and principles_freedom, society, identity, truth, equality, and reason_in light of the horrific events of the Holocaust. Arendt concluded that the banality of evil results from the failure of human beings to fully experience our common human characteristics_thought, will, and judgment_and that the exercise and expression of these attributes is the only chance we have to prevent a recurrence of the kind of terrible evil perpetrated by the Nazis.

Download or read book Becoming Who God Intended written by David Eckman and published by Harvest House Publishers. This book was released on 2005 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Becoming Who God Intended" answers the heart questions of those who are deeply frustrated with their Christian life: Is it "normal" that my emotional experience doesn't match up with the Bible?" Why do I feel "alive" only when I engage in habitual sins and compulsions?" Do I just have to live with anxiety, anger, shame, and depression?" Every person's "heart life" is filled with "pictures" of reality--often false ones, says David Eckman. But as believers use the truth of their new identity in Christ to develop "biblical "pictures, they will be able to truly accept God's acceptance of them, be freed from negative emotions and habitual sins...and finally experience a life that matches what Scripture promises.
