Download or read book Step Out on Nothing written by Byron Pitts and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2009-09-23 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It was August 25, 2006, my first on-camera studio open for the CBS News broadcast 60 Minutes. Executive Producer Jeff Fager poked his head in the dressing room." Good luck, Brotha! You've come a long way to get here. You've earned it." ...If only he knew. My mind flashed back to elementary school, when a therapist had informed my mother, "I'm sorry, Mrs. Pitts, your son cannot read." In Step Out on Nothing, Byron Pitts chronicles his astonishing story of overcoming a childhood filled with obstacles to achieve enormous success in life. Throughout Byron's difficult youth—his parents separated when he was twelve and his mother worked two jobs to make ends meet—he suffered from a debilitating stutter. But Byron was keeping an even more embarrassing secret: He was also functionally illiterate. For a kid from inner-city Baltimore, it was a recipe for failure. Pitts turned struggle into strength and overcame both of his impediments. Along the way, a few key people "stepped out on nothing" to make a difference for him—from his mother, who worked tirelessly to raise her kids right and delivered ample amounts of tough love, to his college roommate, who helped Byron practice his vocabulary and speech. Pitts even learns from those who didn't believe in him, like the college professor who labeled him a failure and told him to drop out of college. Through it all, he persevered, following his steadfast passion. After fifteen years in local television, he landed a job as a correspondent for CBS News in 1998, and went on to become an Emmy Award–winning journalist and a contributing correspondent for 60 Minutes. Not bad for a kid who couldn't read. From a challenged youth to a reporting career that has covered 9/11 and Iraq, Pitts's triumphant and uplifting story will resonate with anyone who has felt like giving up in the face of seemingly insurmountable hardships.

Meet Serendipity (a.k.a. Serene), who needs to be humbled in her world of entitlement to fill the endless void she is trying to fill. How will she turn from her vacant and selfish ways if she doesn't have God in her life?

Download or read book Riches to Rags to Riches written by Heidi Guttman and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2012-10 with total page 83 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It says in the Bible that we are to give 10% of our gross income to God which is the tithe. We are to take our tithe to our local church. Many make out their tithe without really giving it much thought, which is the way it should be. Whereas, many others put "too much thought" into tithing which only complicates the "act of tithing". God made "tithing" to be very simple and uncomplicated. In Riches to Rags to Riches: The Power of Tithing, author Heidi Guttman tells her story of tithing. Life for Guttman was good. She had material things that would make many people envious: a beautiful townhouse, expensive art, awesome cars, gorgeous furs, expensive jewelry, and a sport yacht, among other things. There was even a leather high chair for the baby. When she lost most of her possessions because she disobeyed God's instructions about tithing, however, Guttman learned the power of material wealth to distance her from God. Riches to Rags to Riches: The Power of Tithing teaches the importance of tithing from God's perspective. Learn about the rewards you can reap from tithing-and the losses you can sustain from not tithing. Guttman learned the difference firsthand. When she began tithing faithfully, God restored her in all ways. This can happen to you. As a result of tithing, you can experience God's love, peace, and abundance-a blessing that so many people long for.
