Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: So often we think God doesn't hear us during our struggles when we cry out to Him. Like many, after praying and not getting a response, I thought it was up to me to find the solutions and answers to struggles I encountered. As a result of my ignorance, I replaced God and His power with what I thought were answers that weren't the answers after all. Growing through the Storm is a story of triumphs and lessons learned while trying to find solutions to unwanted circumstances during not one, but two troubled marriages. I share how I clung to attachments such as doubt, fear, worry, self-pity, blame, insecurity, and unworthiness that kept me from receiving what God had in store for me. I share how God revealed Himself to me through the storm and how He used my pain to grow me stronger, wiser, and more confident of His love which led me to an awakening in my spirit and a personal relationship with our Lord. Unfortunately, many of us are guilty of living the life that I used to live. If that's you, it doesn't have to be this way. I invite you to take a journey with me by reading my story and trusting that you, too, can be made anew, strengthened, and blessed by turning to Jesus, surrendering your all to Him, and discovering His amazing grace and love He has for you. Growing through the Storm includes points to ponder at the end of each chapter with thought-provoking questions and comments including scripture and prayer for personal reflection. I pray my story infuses your heart to put your hope in Jesus and His promises to believe, "With God all things are possible," as promised in Matthew 19:26 (NIV) when asked according to His will in His name! Be blessed and be a blessing!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stand Firm in Christ in the Midst of Every Storm Storms, adversity, tests, and trials—the thornbushes of life—often lead to a faith-shaking downward spiral for far too many. They shouldn’t. When you stand firm in Christ through even the worst storms of life, saying with the apostle Paul, “none of these things move me,” you will experience God’s upward calling to ever-increasing glory. You will be transformed into a “growing juniper,” victorious and joyful...powerful. In Growing Junipers: God’s Upward Call During the Storm, take an inspiring, life-changing walk with Jesus through Gethsemane, Calvary, and the Great Commission, and you will: • Grow deeper in the Spirit of God, tapping into His unlimited power like never before. • Develop new skills for listening to and discerning the voice of God. • Experience ever-increasing joy, peace, and faith, even in the face of raging storms. • Gain unprecedented confidence in God’s commission and calling on your life, knowing God will use you. Growing Junipers: God’s Upward Call During the Storm offers an encounter with Jesus that will transform you, solidify your faith, increase your spiritual confidence, embolden you to share Him with others, and empower you to be victorious over every trial. “Joshua has related his own transformational journey with so much tangible evidence of our broken humanity. Written with integrity and transparency, it has to affect and help others who will read this to embrace their own restoration journey. He reflects not on superficial behavioral adjustment, but deep sustainable embrace of the new life in Christ. God has intervened in Christ to take our brokenness, and divinely convert it into a whole and complete life. A highly recommended read.” -Alan Platt, Leader and Founder of Doxa Deo Ministries “Joshua possesses the highest moral fiber and conviction of any officer I have had the distinct pleasure to lead. I highly endorse “Growing Junipers” for any person wanting to improve their spiritual fitness and learn how to stand and fight through adversity.” —Lieutenant Colonel Christopher A. Heberer, Battalion Commander, United States Army

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the Small Business Book Awards from Small Business Trends 2013 The Sydney Hobart Yacht Race is among the most demanding sailing competitions in the world. Unpredictable seas make the 628-nautical-mile course grueling under the best conditions, but the 1998 race proved to be the most perilous to date when a sudden and violent storm struck. Winds gusted over 100 mph and monstrous 80-foot waves towered over boat masts. Six sailors perished and another 55 were saved in what became the largest search and rescue operation in Australia's history. In the face of turmoil and tragedy, a crew of "amateur" sailors piloted their tiny vessel, the AFR Midnight Rambler, not only to the finish but to overall victory. While bigger, better-equipped yachts attempted to maneuver around the storm, Ed Psaltis and his crew made the daring decision to head directly into its path. Their triumph--perhaps even their survival--owes itself to an extraordinary level of teamwork: an alchemy of cooperation, trust, planning, and execution. Into the Storm chronicles their nearly four-day ordeal and draws parallels to the world of business, revealing 10 critical strategies for teamwork at the edge. Illustrated with examples from the story and compelling case studies, the book sheds light on what teams need to do to succeed in tough times. Finally, Into the Storm provides resources and tools to support teams as they navigate the chaotic seas of business today.

Download or read book Harbinger of the Storm written by Aliette de Bodard and published by Jabberwocky Literary Agency, Inc.. This book was released on 2016-01-05 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The second book in the critically acclaimed Obsidian and Blood trilogy: The year is Two House, and the Emperor of the Mexica has just died. The protections he afforded the Empire are crumbling, and the way lies wide open to the flesh-eating star-demons--and to the return of their creator, a malevolent goddess only held in check by the War God's power. The council should convene to choose a new Emperor, but they are too busy plotting against each other. And then someone starts summoning star-demons within the palace, to kill councilmen... Acatl, High Priest of the Dead, must find the culprit before everything is torn apart. REVIEWS: ‘Political intrigue and rivalry among a complex pantheon of divinities drive this well-paced murder mystery set at the height of the Aztec Empire in the late 15th century. De Bodard reintroduces the series hero Acatl, high priest of the dead, immediately following the death of the Tenochtitlan leader. One of the council members in charge of choosing a successor has been brutally murdered in what looks like an attempt to influence the decision. But the deaths continue and the political situation grows more complex, while the empire looks to be increasingly at risk of invasion by malignant powers. Acatl must go face-to-face with the most powerful god in his world and put the good of the empire above his antipathy for is rivals to achieve the uneasy succession. De Bodard incorporates historical fact with great ease and manages the rare feat of explaining complex culture and political system without lecturing or boring the reader.’ —Publishers Weekly ‘Another thing that intrigues me here is the whole fact that historically we know that the real empire died out mysteriously and completely and as such there is always that thought in the back of my mind that the author could choose to bring about the end of days. That highlighted sense of possible doom is something that is missing from too many novels. The way the story is told in this book is very impressive, the plot is both mature and seductive, twisting and turning like a weather vane in a force 9 gale while the action is both bloodthirsty and imaginative. The world building is fantastic and we get to learn even more of this rich culture and the many gods and creatures of the dark. I really can’t fault this book at all and recommend it to one and all but if you haven’t yet read Servant of the Underworld I suggest that you get them both and read them in order, you won’t be disappointed.’ —SF Book Reviews ‘Bodard’s writing is polished and striking, as she convincingly fills in the colorful elements of the Aztec culture–even if those colors tend to be of blood and bile as well as flowers and hummingbirds... beautiful, grimy, breathtaking, and morbid. 5*’ —Examiner ‘Aliette de Bodard has done it again. Harbinger of the Storm is an action packed Aztec mystery opera with magic, interventions from the gods and more twists and turns than the first book. It even has a love story with amusing snippets here and there... The story is self contained and can be enjoyed standalone, but you will not want to miss out on the first. I wish it was 2012 already even if the world is going under while I read the final Obsidian & Blood.’ —Cybermage

Book excerpt: "Augmented Reality" game Transdimensional Hunter seems too real for comfort as the world of the game merges with reality. Now, teenage game prodigy Lynn Raven will have to conquer the game or be destroyed by it. REALITY BITES—AND IT HAS BIG TEETH Becoming a global celebrity overnight would make most people happy. Not Lynn Raven. As a teenage gaming prodigy, she’s enjoyed years of anonymity behind the virtual mask of Larry Coughlin, war-hardened vet and virtual gaming mercenary. But now Lynn has stepped out of the shadows to compete in the cutting-edge augmented reality game TransDimensional Hunter that has taken the world by storm. And she’s winning. But with success has come swarms of paparazzi drones, jealous teammates, and a backstabbing rival team that will use any trick in the book to ruin her. Then there’s the game itself. At times, the “augmented” reality seems too real for Lynn’s comfort, and strange accidents keep happening. Something is going on; she just has to figure out what. Lynn would much rather fight monsters than do paparazzi interviews, but somehow she’ll have to master both—and pass her senior year to boot. She managed to step into the real, but will the storm of reality now defeat her for good? At the publisher’s request, this title is sold without DRM (Digital Rights Management).

The characters are vivid and interesting, and the action is strong enough to carry you along.” —Upstream Reviews “The futuristic world of the gamers and the game itself will interest sf readers. . . .
