Book One Word for Kids

Download or read book One Word for Kids written by Jon Gordon and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2019-11-05 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the authors who created the One Word movement, impacting schools, businesses, and sports teams around the world, comes a charming fable that can be read and shared by everyone. If you could choose only one word to help you have your best year ever, what would it be? Love? Fun? Believe? Brave? It’s prob­ably different for everyone. How you find your word is just as important as the word itself. And once you know your word, what do you do with it? In One Word for Kids, bestselling author Jon Gordon—along with coauthors Dan Britton and Jimmy Page—asks these questions to children and adults of all ages, teaching an important life lesson in the process. This engaging, fully illustrated fable follows Stevie, a young boy falling asleep on the first day of school. His teacher gives the class an assignment: to find the one word that will help them have their best year ever. To discover their one word, they must look inside themselves, look up, and look out. At home, Stevie is upset be­cause he can’t find his word. After his dad offers some helpful advice, Stevie excitedly begins the quest for his word. His search helps him discover a lot about himself, what he loves, and what is important to him. An easy read with a powerful message, One Word for Kids appeals to readers of all ages and is an ideal entry point into discussing a valuable lesson in a fun and engaging way.

  • Publisher : Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.
  • Release : 2023-04-27
  • ISBN :
  • Pages : 198 pages

Download or read book A Word for the Church written by Jeff Mills, MDiv and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2023-04-27 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book was written for both the new churchgoer and the senior churchgoer. It begins with a history of the church and leads into how the church leadership of today operates. This book was written to show that there is no such thing as a perfect church, but there is a church that should be striving toward perfection. This book allows its readers to test their church to ensure that sound Christian doctrine is being taught and put to the test. As stated earlier, there is no perfect church; every church has issues that must be dealt with, and this book covers many of those issues through a firsthand account and gives actions that can help eliminate these troublesome areas. It also deals with what a healthy church looks like and how to get to that point. As the church body, our greatest job is to share the good news of Jesus with everyone that we can. This book includes a chapter on evangelism and easy methods that can be used by individuals and the church as a whole. In summary, this book is about the history of the church and what God intended the church to be and how many times we fall short. The good news is that there is hope for our churches today; we just need our members to be on fire for Jesus and become servant-hearted workers in the church.

This country speaks a language Kemala doesn't know. At first, no one understands Kemala either. This realization makes her curl into a little ball, like most pangolins do when they're nervous. But a classmate helps draw her out with an art project that doubles as a vocabulary exchange. Soon, Kemala is learning the most universal language of all: friendship.

  • Publisher : Wipf and Stock Publishers
  • Release : 2017-07-21
  • ISBN : 1532632525
  • Pages : 187 pages

Download or read book No Word for the Sea written by Diane Glancy and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2017-07-21 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No Word for the Sea is built on several layers of questioning: What is language? What is memory? Where does the mind go when the circuits shut down? The novel covers seven years in the lives of Solome and Stephen Savard in St. Paul, Minnesota. Stephen is provost at Cobson College, and Solome has raised three children. The events alternate between Stephen’s first-person narrative and Solome’s third-person narrative in accord with the breaking text of their lives. “Once there was a common Indo-European language with words for winter and horse, but no word for the sea.” The history of the English language has an inland origin. As they find themselves stranded in the destructive effects of Stephen’s Alzheimer’s, there also is an exploration of resolution that comes from such an experience. Mark 8:36 asks, “What does it profit a man if he gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?” No Word for the Sea asks, “What if a man gains his soul, but loses the world?”
