Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you or someone you know has never experienced racism, bigotry, injustice, abuse, or domestic violence, then this book is not for you. But if you or someone you know has been such a victim and suffered from such societal evils, then perhaps you are not reading these words by chance. Perhaps God has brought you to this moment to make a difference, for deep down in your heart, you know that this is fundamentally wrong. And just maybe, God through his Spirit, has brought you to this very moment to say, "Enough is enough," and start doing something to begin eliminating racism, bigotry, injustice, abuse, and domestic violence. Rev. Gallo lays out a twelve-step process that he has termed A Blueprint of Hope from a Christian Perspective. Utilizing twelve messages or themes of hope (one from each of the minor prophets), as well as the teachings of Jesus, he formulates a plan. This plan incorporates both small group ministry within the local church and neighborhood outreach to the surrounding community where these societal evils rear their ugly heads and have devastated individuals for generations. These twelve messages, as well as a unique perspective and insights that he has gained over forty-two years of police work and active ministry, he formulates a blueprint of hope that encourages individuals to catch a vision of what might be if people begin to look at each other through eyes of love and hope, rather than hate and despair.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All people have sinned and broken God's law. None of us are good (Rom. 3:10). And as a result of our sin, God commands us to repent. But what does repentance look like? In this booklet, Dr. R.C. Sproul looks at several people in the Bible and how they give us a model of repentance. Dr. Sproul explains that true repentance is not simply a religious ritual or the resolve to do better next time. Rather, it's a spiritual conversion in which we turn from our sin and to God in faith. The Crucial Questions booklet series by Dr. R.C. Sproul offers succinct answers to important questions often asked by Christians and thoughtful inquirers.

Download or read book Majoring in the Minors written by Neal Pollard and published by . This book was released on 2013-09 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here are six men, Hosea, Joel, Amos, Obadiah, Jonah, and Micah, who stand shoulder to shoulder in the inspired canon of scripture. They never would have been in the same room together, separated by time, travel, and task. They could each tell personal tales of heartache, sacrifice, and trial, disappointment and disbelief. Their message, to the man, was piercing and convicting. We know almost nothing about the personal history of a couple of them. A couple of the others have their personal lives intertwined in their message. The diversity is more than fascinating. It is proof of the Divine hand in their writing. From these men, we learn much about God, man, and man's relationship with his God. Upon the pages of this volume, you will find a thorough explanation of the biblical text as well as rich application for our lives in today's world. Though ancient by date, the material examined by these writers is thoroughly modern by way of relevance. We invite you to read its contents and build your appreciation for the major messages of these minor prophets.

Download or read book Finally written by Roger Ferguson and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2014-01-12 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Admit it, we all hate annual performance appraisals, and with good reason. - Over 85% of companies say that their current performance management processes are only "moderately effective." - Only 50% of employees believe that their managers provide them with honest feedback that actually improves their job performance. - Managers spend, on average, 400 hours per year on the process! The return-on-investment for that time is very low. Most participate in the process "because the Human Resources department requires it." So why do we continue, year after year, with this outdated, tedious, and questionable process? Probably because we have not had any better alternative... until now! Roger Ferguson, a human resources and operations professional with more than thirty years of experience in Fortune 500 companies, has created Big Five Performance Management, a commonsense alternative. Big Five creates better accountability than traditional annual performance appraisal, requires less time, and is actually embraced by managers and their employees. Big Five is born from the sales culture where it is said that good salespeople are "born on Monday and die on Friday." That means that good salespeople are 100 percent accountable for positive, documented, successful efforts on a weekly basis, creating a culture of ongoing accountability and demonstrated performance. Human Resources can learn a lot from sales; Big Five tells us how. This innovative process, tested in multiple corporate environments for the past fifteen years, is presented here for the first time in a conversational, easy-to-read style, and is not just limited to human resources professionals or upper-level management. It is for the rank-and-file employee who may not know how to prioritize their work; calculate the value they bring to their organization; or communicate that value to their management. It is for frontline supervisors and managers who struggle to effectively align the efforts of their team members; are not always comfortable with confrontation when coaching employees; and dread the thought of having to prepare one more round of annual performance appraisals. It is for companies and organizations looking to build a more effective, accountable, and inspired workplace by improving processes and eliminating waste. Finally, performance assessment that works! "Big Five is the coolest thing to hit Human Resources since Covey and his Seven Habits!" -Doug Thorpe, Solomon-Edwards "The best 100 pages you will ever read on the subject of performance appraisal! Big Five is an absolute game-changer." - Rick Gillis- Author, Consultant, Speaker ""I installed Big Five in our business and was amazed at how quickly our team embraced it. Big Five provides us with focus, prioritization of our work load, and accountability which are critical to the performance of the team and helps us manage our business more effectively. With this approach the time spent on the old process is no longer wasted!" -Cathy Penland, General Manager, Houston home builder

Download or read book The Call Up to the Majors written by Thomas A. Rhoads and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-03-28 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the unique relationships between professional baseball teams and the unique ways professional baseball leagues are organized in North America with a primary focus on how proximity can and does impact consumer demand. Perhaps more than any other matter that arises in the business of baseball, proximity to other professional baseball teams is a concern that has uniquely shaped professional baseball leagues in North America. It is this particular component in how professional baseball leagues are organized that suggests building a proximity-based approach to studying the economics of minor league baseball. This book opens up new ways to study minor league baseball, specifically, and sports leagues more generally. So even as advanced technology has eliminated some of the need for fans to be in close proximity to the teams they love to follow, there is still a need to understand more completely how proximity matters can impact the way professional baseball leagues are structured and how that structure can ultimately impact the quality of the games that entertain sports fans everywhere. This book will be of interest to both sports economists and practitioners.

Book excerpt: The New York Times bestseller from the author of The Bullpen Gospels. “A humorous, candid and insightful memoir . . . Grade: Home Run.”—Cleveland Plain Dealer After six years in the minors, pitcher Dirk Hayhurst hopes 2008 is the year he breaks into the big leagues. But every time Dirk looks up, the bases are loaded with challenges—a wedding balancing on a blind hope, a family in chaos, and paychecks that beg Dirk to ask, “How long can I afford to keep doing this?” Then it finally happens—Dirk gets called up to the Majors, to play for the San Diego Padres. A dream comes true when he takes the mound against the San Francisco Giants, kicking off forty insane days and nights in the Bigs. Like the classic games of baseball’s history, Out of My League entertains from the first pitch to the last out, capturing the gritty realities of playing on the big stage, the comedy and camaraderie in the dugouts and locker rooms, and the hard-fought, personal journeys that drive our love of America’s favorite pastime. “A rare gem of a baseball book.”—Tom Verducci, Sports Illustrated “Observant, insightful, human, and hilarious.”—Bob Costas “A fun read . . . This book shows why baseball is so often used as a metaphor for life.”—Keith Olbermann “Entertaining and engaging . . . reminiscent of Jim Bouton’s Ball Four.”—Booklist “The book is a terrific read. If you loved Bullpen Gospels (I’d have a hard time believing you are a baseball fan if you didn’t) you will love Out of My League too.”—Bluebird Banter
