Book excerpt: “Two Kings and a Leader is a book about the phenomenal story of the First Foreign Minister of Afghanistan Sardar Mahmud Tarzi, his family, and his relationship with the two notorious kings in the 1900s- Amir Habibullah Khan and King Aman Ullah. It is a vibrant depiction of Mahmud Tarzi’s struggles and efforts for the independence of Afghanistan. More elucidating is the fact that these stories are told by Mahmud Tarzi’s great-grandson Ömer Tarzi. An important segment of the book is dedicated to Afghanistan’s struggle with two of the great powers of the time (Britain and Russia) and the vital achievements of Afghanistan’s First Foreign Minister, Sardar Mahmud Tarzi, in international political affairs. “Of course, at the fore there was always a king, but the leader standing behind was very important.”

Book excerpt: After facing her nightmares head on, Keira soon finds her troubles have only just begun, and if she thought mortals were dangerous, then being hunted by the world's most powerful beings will spin her further into a web of supernatural destruction. Keira can't help seeing the handsome man before her, she can't help the dreams that consume her and neither can she stop him from wanting her. The controlling man that follows her every move isn't the man she's dating, but the man that's hunting her. Now it's down to the only man with enough power to keep her safe, and he doesn't play well with others. Nor does he take kindly to people trying to take what belongs to him, and Keira belongs to only one man... Dominic Draven.

Download or read book Leaders Eat Last written by Simon Sinek and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2014-01-07 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The New York Times bestseller by the acclaimed, bestselling author of Start With Why and Together is Better. Now with an expanded chapter and appendix on leading millennials, based on Simon Sinek's viral video "Millenials in the workplace" (150+ million views). Imagine a world where almost everyone wakes up inspired to go to work, feels trusted and valued during the day, then returns home feeling fulfilled. This is not a crazy, idealized notion. Today, in many successful organizations, great leaders create environments in which people naturally work together to do remarkable things. In his work with organizations around the world, Simon Sinek noticed that some teams trust each other so deeply that they would literally put their lives on the line for each other. Other teams, no matter what incentives are offered, are doomed to infighting, fragmentation and failure. Why? The answer became clear during a conversation with a Marine Corps general. "Officers eat last," he said. Sinek watched as the most junior Marines ate first while the most senior Marines took their place at the back of the line. What's symbolic in the chow hall is deadly serious on the battlefield: Great leaders sacrifice their own comfort--even their own survival--for the good of those in their care. Too many workplaces are driven by cynicism, paranoia, and self-interest. But the best ones foster trust and cooperation because their leaders build what Sinek calls a "Circle of Safety" that separates the security inside the team from the challenges outside. Sinek illustrates his ideas with fascinating true stories that range from the military to big business, from government to investment banking.

Book excerpt: This is a completely revised edition of Gold Medallion Award-winning Expositor's Bible Commentary. This revised commentary has undergone substantial revisions that keep pace with current evangelical scholarship and resources. Just as its previous edition, it offers a major contribution to the study and understanding of the Scriptures. Providing pastors and Bible students with a comprehensive and scholarly tool for the exposition of the Scriptures and the teaching and proclamation of the gospel, this ten-volume reference work has become a staple of seminary and college libraries and pastors' studies worldwide. Its fifty-six contributors---thirty of them are new---represent the best in evangelical scholarship committed to the divine inspiration, complete trustworthiness, and full authority of the Bible.

Notes on textual questions and special problems are correlated with the expository units; transliteration and translation of Semitic and Greek words make the more technical notes accessible to readers unacquainted with the biblical languages. In matters where marked differences of opinion exist, commentators, while stating their own convictions, deal fairly and irenically with opposing views.
Download or read book Studies in 2 Kings written by Dennis Dinger and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2018-08-10 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book of 2 Kings is the last of the four books originally known as The Books of Kings. These books cover the decline of Jewish society from the times of the judges, through the times of the kings of Israel and Judah, to the captivities of all the children of Israel in Babylonia and Assyria. This history of Israel mirrors the history of modern society. At one point in Jewish history, worship of the Lord God was dominant. But as time passed, worship of the Lord God was gradually replaced by idolatry and worship of heathen gods and idols. Just as the Lord waited for the people of Israel to call upon Him for rescue and salvation from their captors, the Lord today is waiting for mankind to tire of their captivity to sin and to call upon Him for rescue and salvation! . . . and when they do, He will respond and save them!

Download or read book Three Seasons of Charismatic Leadership written by Tamas Czovek and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2008-04-01 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research is an investigation into the charismatic leadership of Saul, David, and Solomon. Regarding methodology the study is a synchronic reading and is keen to demonstrate the theology explicit or implicit in the text. This study assumes that charismatic leaders emerge in crisis situations and in order to resolve the crisis by the charisma granted by God. In regard to Saul, the book argues that Saul proved himself a charismatic leader as long as acting resolutely and independently from Samuel, his mentor. He failed, however, because in Samuel's shadow he could not establish himself as a charismatic leader. David was successful because of his autonomy and resolution. Also, he was a successful charismatic leader as long as he remained independent. King David, however, was gradually sidelined by Joab. Another major theme of the David narrative is the clash between the concepts of charismatic military leadership and that of oriental kingship. David's military leadership and the charisma related to it are constantly challenged by the concept of oriental kingship. Although at his emergence he had lacked charisma, Solomon wisely chose the leadership skills needed to lead Israel. Attention is, however, drawn to the tensions between Solomon's leadership benefiting Israel and the royal pretension manifest in royal projects. The relationship of the new charismatic leader with the old leader is scrutinized: how the new leader is appointed, how he emerges, how the old persists--in short the transition and succession in leadership. An evaluation of the activity of the charismatic follows; could he resolve the crisis from which he emerged and for which he was granted God's spirit? To what extent were these leaders charismatic?
