Book excerpt: In My Hero, some of the brightest lights from around the globe share -- in their own words -- stories about the people who have been the greatest source of strength and inspiration to them. With essays by military heroes, political leaders, and Nobel Prize winners, sports heroes, firefighters, scientists, and schoolteachers -- and with an introduction by basketball legend, businessman, and philanthropist Earvin "Magic" Johnson -- this collection gathers individuals who themselves are shining examples to tell us about the people who have illuminated their own lives. • How did Dana Reeve come to find such grit and grace when her fairy-tale prince was thrown from his real-life steed, paralyzed from the neck down? • What traits of baseball great Ted Williams have inspired war hero Senator John McCain since childhood? • What impact did Nelson Mandela have on boxing legend Muhammad Ali? • Why does one of the all-time greats of baseball, Yogi Berra, believe that he owes each of his legendary home runs to his brothers? • How did Michael J. Fox find a woman who would walk away from a spectacular career in finance in order to fight for a cure for Parkinson's disease at the helm of his nonprofit foundation? • Why does John Glenn, a man who flew into space twice and served a quarter century on the Senate floor, look up to his own wife, Annie Glenn, as the true hero in the family? In a world hungry for good examples, My Hero reminds us that heroes come in all shapes and sizes. It also teaches us that the words and deeds of those who inspire us are as varied as the stars that illuminate the night. The editors of My Hero and the contributors are donating all royalties from this book to the nonprofit My Hero Project.

Download or read book Jesus Is My Hero written by Dr. Scott Rawlings and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2022-08-19 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most frightening trends in our culture today is the exodus of churchgoers. Churchgoers who before felt inspired to worship and fellowship in their local church community are now leaving at a record pace. It is happening in every denomination, effecting every church. The crazy thing is, people are leaving and it is not because they no longer believe in God. They still believe in God and believe that Jesus is their savior. But, could it be that somewhere down the line, Jesus quit being their hero? Sure, He is our savior, but somehow we forgot that He is also our Lord. Jesus Is My Hero reminds us again how important it is to see Jesus for who He really is, a hero that we would want to emulate. A hero who not only has the power and the ability to make this world a better place, but also a hero who will make us better people. A hero who will bring out the best in us as we dare to do the impossible against supernaturally impossible odds. A hero who will inspire us again as he shows us how life is meant to be lived.

Download or read book My Hero written by Debbie Macomber and published by MIRA. This book was released on 2020-01-13 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One for the keeper shelf! Enjoy again this charming classic romance from #1 New York Times bestselling author Debbie Macomber. Would-be romance writer Bailey York was a woman who’d already failed twice at love. As far as she was concerned, men were wonderful to read—and to write—about, but that was as close as she wanted to get. Which was probably why she had such difficulty creating a hero. She needed a real-life model, she finally decided. And she found one: Parker Davidson was everything a hero should be. Compellingly attractive. Forceful and determined, yet capable of tenderness. A man of substance. Parker was perfect for Bailey’s novel—but he wanted to be the hero in her life, not just in her book! Originally published in 1992
