Download or read book The Promise to the One written by Jason Hewlett and published by Sound Wisdom. This book was released on 2020-05-13 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The greatest joy and fulfillment are within your reach, but they require an enduring Promise to The One…someone you might not expect. It’s not your boss, your spouse, your children, or others—no, the ultimate commitment is The Promise you make to yourself to discover your purpose and gifts and share them with the world. Everyone has been hurt or negatively impacted by broken promises. Promise-breaking and a lack of integrity are symptomatic of the most chronic illness faced by society today. Even though many leadership courses and ethics programs tout “integrity” as a buzzword, few of us are really assessing our own values unless someone calls us out on a discrepancy. But even when others don’t catch on to the façade, when our values aren’t in alignment with our actions and when our actions aren’t consonant with our gifts and passions, we’re left feeling isolated, drained, and depressed. No recognition or acceptance from others can fill the void in the same way as when you keep a Promise to yourself and actually follow through on it. The Promise is the highest level of engagement we commit to in any experience. The Promise is greater than a goal—it’s a sacred commitment. It’s complete dedication to identifying your Signature Moves—the unique talents you’ve been given that, when developed and used to better others’ lives, make you a Legendary Leader. What choices do you make when no one is watching? How do you approach a decision that requires you to let either yourself or someone else down? How do you stay committed to your values, even when the less-rewarding path is more convenient? A renowned speaker and performer who has helped audiences worldwide appreciate what accountability really means, Jason Hewlett shares his program for self-discovery and taking ownership of your gifts in The Promise to The One. His unique three-step method—IDENTIFY • CLARIFY • MAGNIFY—will enable you to pinpoint your strengths, shape them into an identity to which you commit, and develop them so that they can improve others’ lives as well as your own. Filled with Jason’s signature wit and vulnerability as well as actionable exercises, this book will help you refine your character and reach your dreams through the power of kept Promises. Start your journey to living a life of Promise Making and Keeping…beginning with The Promise to The One.

Download or read book The Death of the Promise written by Thomas Sheets and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2020-03-19 with total page 61 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a continuation of my first effort, The Road to Restoration. As I continued to write, God led me to an understanding of Paul's conversion that made this whole project worthwhile. As a Pharisee, Paul came to his encounter with the risen Christ with a saved mind-set that was sacred to him, as it was to all Pharisees. Years later, Paul writes in Romans and Galatians about being a child of the promise of salvation. His conversion was therefore from believing he was saved, possessing salvation, to being possessed by the hope and promise of salvation and looking forward to that moment of reward, resurrection and the fulfilment of the promise God made to Abraham - at Christ's Second Coming. I never had a sense of having been saved, so It was easy for me to see myself, like Paul, living in the light of the hope and promise of salvation. It was also easy to see the people around me, with their sacred saved mind-set, being in the same darkness Paul was in before his encounter with Christ. This is the conversion that most in our culture desperately need to have today. Living in the light of the promise of salvation rather than in the darkness of the possession of salvation. Paul details his conversion very vividly in Titus 3:3-7 (read NIV). He also tells us that this is the foundation of his faith in Titus 1:2 (NIV prior to 2011). I hope as you read you will see how this evolved in my head as I did not know the end at the beginning. I did not work from an outline and only wrote as I was being led by the Spirit.

Download or read book The Great Promise written by Frederick L. Coxen and published by Frederick L Coxen. This book was released on 2012-08-10 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Frederick L. Coxen's life was changed when he stumbled upon his late grandfather's journal from World War I. Coxen did more than just transcribe the worn, weathered diary and annotate it with maps and a historical narrative to create this volume. He devoted years attempting to fulfill the terms of a pact his grandfather had made with three fellow soldiers in the summer of 1914-an unkept pledge that, to his dying day, haunted the elder Coxen.The Great Promise is thus a primary source, a history, and a personal quest. Coxen's grandfather (also named Frederick Coxen) was called to the colors to serve in the Royal Field Artillery. He was among the first British soldiers to land in France at the start of The Great War, and he fought in every major engagement until being gassed in 1915. The journal covers his first year at the front almost day by day. His reports, observations, emotional asides, musings, and even occasional jokes lure the reader into a fascinating, detailed, and very human time capsule.To assist those unfamiliar with the period, the younger Coxen intersperses his grandfather's entries with short but clear passages explaining the commanders, maneuvers, and terminology of the First World War. His simple, clean maps show the routes his ancestor trod and the towns he fought over. These help set the stage for his grandfather's wonderful and rarely hurried prose.There are episodes of unconscionable horror, such as the crucifixion of captured soldiers (by both sides) and reflections on the deaths of friends and enemies alike. Upon seeing one man fall, for example, the elder Coxen writes, "I wondered if this means the breaking of a woman's heart, or had he little children?" There are also warm moments, such as when soldiers share their already meager rations with starving refugee children, and bits of very British pluck, notably of how "nothing short of an earthquake would make us miss our tea time." The journal entries allow the reader to follow one of many green young men as he matures within months into a war-weary veteran.While his ancestor's words and experiences are the true stars of the text, there is a second story here, one told almost as an afterthought in the last twenty pages of an already slim book. The elder Coxen and three comrades made a pact that if any of them fell, the survivors would visit the deceased soldier's family, relate the story of his passing, and offer comfort. Coxen saw all three of his mates die, even holding one of them in his arms as he expired. Yet, he never made good on his part of the bargain.As he laments in an entry made in another journal in 1945, when living in America and writing during a second war, those old comrades continued to haunt Coxen's dreams, asking if he would ever fulfill that great promise. How his grandson sought to made good on Coxen's word, and the detective efforts he undertook to find the descendants of those dead soldiers, is a short but engrossing and very moving story, and one well told by the author in his final chapter.Mark McLaughlin (Clarion Reviews)
