Book excerpt: In her new memoir, "Driven To Succeed: Lessons Learned Through Faith, Family & Favor", Dr. Hattie N. Washington reveals how a country girl, from the backwoods of Meherrin, Virginia, succeeded through life with optimism, "drive", and a belief in God to become an honor student, a master teacher, a parent to two successful daughters (a physician and an attorney), and a foster parent to numerous abused foster boys over twenty-two years. She writes about family, relationships, and the complexities of growing up during the segregation and desegregation era, where the strike at R.R. Moton High School, in Farmville, Virginia in 1951, led to the historic Brown v. Board of Education landmark case. Her strong faith and high self-expectation shine through despite her two-room elemen-tary schoolhouse in Prince Edward County, VA closing in 1959 due to Virginia's massive resistance to the Brown v. Board of Education desegregation/civil rights landmark case. You will read about how an ongoing series of personal setbacks brought on many stumbling blocks, yet she broke down barriers to complete her high school and college education; and made history by becoming the first female vice president of Coppin State University. She shares the long journey of starting a non-profit boys' home in Maryland for abused foster boys with special educational needs, named Aunt Hattie's Place, whose young men affectionately calls her "Aunt Hattie". She also discloses personal sacrifices and her dark family secrets that overflow with wisdom, lessons learned, and a call to action. Her riveting memoir is complete with historical and personal photographs of her life's journey that provide inspiration for generations to come. NOTE: Dr. Washington is the author of two books: "Driven To Succeed: Lessons Learned Through Faith, Family & Favor" and "Aunt Hattie's Cookbook: Southern Comfort Food Favorites".

She shares her succulent, mouthwatering recipes from her own personal collections that have been cooked and enjoyed well over five decades. Whether you are an experienced cook or a novice, don't worry. She walks you through how to cook such special dishes as her fried apples, homemade hot buttermilk biscuits dripping with her melted honey butter sauce, golden brown fried chicken and her scrumptious desserts, such as blackberry cobbler, peach cobbler, apple pie, sweet potato pie, her stepmother's old-fashioned traditional Christmas fruitcake, and her signature bread pudding. Dr. Washington, affectionately called "Aunt Hattie" by her foster sons of Aunt Hattie's Place, loves the opportunity to share not only her favorite recipes, but those of friends and family. Thus, she includes a section in her cookbook called, And Beyond, which consist of other favorite recipes from family members, friends and from her living abroad in Greece and Scotland. Additionally, her Resource Directory is a treasure chest, jammed packed with valuable information, articles, ingredient substitutions and website links on healthy eating. This beautiful cookbook is bound to be passed down for generations. It's a go-to reference for recipes that feature wholesome ingredients, and down-home cooking techniques that will enthuse cooks seeking a traditional approach to preparing beloved southern comfort food favorites. She wants her readers to enjoy these southern cuisine dishes of yesteryear when cooking country southern comfort food meant "healthy eating", as most all the veggies, fruits and meat were fresh from the fields, trees, bushes; grass-fed animals, and organic, natural, preservatives-free products, and all the other terms people hear nowadays as society is challenged to eat healthy. Do not miss this chance to own this labor-of-love cookbook that will surely become a welcomed addition to your culinary treasure chest. Prepare to feel the love as you embark on cooking her mouthwatering collection of recipes. Enjoy

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hollywood executive DeVon Franklin shows readers how to live and work their faith from nine to five, not just after quitting time. Straight from Hollywood comes a dynamic business model for building a thriving career without compromising your faith. DeVon Franklin, vice president of production for Columbia Pictures, shares how being bold about his Christian faith while being driven and ambitious has actually worked in his favor to help him excel in a high-profile, fast-paced, competitive industry. You are the movie. Produced by Faith parallels each step of the Hollywood film making process with the faith-making process God uses to turn your career into a success. You will discover that it is possible to be both wildly successful and completely committed to God—and that you will be even more successful when you place your faith at the center of your career. You can unleash the power of your faith as your greatest professional advantage and use the compass of God’s Word to guide you to your true passion and purpose in life. In this informative, inspiring book, DeVon reveals the secrets to maintaining your faith while advancing in your career. Here he shows you: * How to discover The Big Idea for your life * How to take your career to the next level * How to recognize the signs God sends you that indicate when it’s time to movein a new direction * How to stand firm on your Christian principles without compromise * How to work with people who don’t understand your beliefs * How to choose a profession, industry, or company that is in tune with your purpose DeVon says, “I know from my own experiences that if you will put your career in God’s hands and trust Him, you can’t account for all the ways He will bless you. When you step out in faith, He will open doors and bring you opportunities that will surpass even your wildest expectations....If I have learned anything, it’s this: To get where you want to go, you’ve first got to become the person God wants you to be.”

Washington reveals how a country girl trail blazed through life with optimism, high self-expectation and faith in a higher power to become an honor student, an innovative educator and administrator, an effective parent to two successful daughters, and a foster parent to over 100 foster boys over a 20-year period. She takes us to the backwoods of Meherrin, Virginia in a memoir of extended family, family secrets, close-knit community relationships, and the complexities of growing up during the segregation and desegregation era, where the strike at R.R. Moton High School, in Farmville, Virginia in 1951, led to the historic landmark case, Brown v. Board of Education. The case propelled all schools in Prince Edward County, including her two-room elementary schoolhouse, to close for five years.This memoir shares her personal sacrifices and accomplishments that overflow with warmth, wit and inspiring storytelling. She shares not only the challenges and rewards of starting a non-profit foster boys home in Baltimore, Maryland in 1997, that she affectionately named Aunt Hattie's Place, but also the complications of building and opening a third new "green" home for boys in May 2010.

She broke many barriers along the way by becoming the first female vice president of Coppin State University and being the recipient of the National Council of Negro Women Humanitarian Award, presented by the late Dr. Dorothy Height. Complete with historical and personal photographs, Dr. Hattie N. Washington-Driven to Succeed: An Inspirational Memoir of Lessons Learned through Faith, Family and Favor tells Dr. Washington's riveting story, providing inspiration for those who wish to be encouraged to succeed, despite hardships and setbacks.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Whether the issue of the day on Twitter, Facebook, or cable news is our sexuality, political divides, or the perceived conflict between faith and science, today’s media pushes each one of us into a frustrating clash between two opposing sides. Polarizing, us-against-them discussions divide us and distract us from thinking clearly and communicating lovingly with others. Scott Sauls, like many of us, is weary of the bickering and is seeking a way of truth and beauty through the conflicts. Jesus Outside the Lines presents Jesus as this way. Scott shows us how the words and actions of Jesus reveal a response that does not perpetuate the destructive fray. Jesus offers us a way forward—away from harshness, caricatures, and stereotypes. In Jesus Outside the Lines, you will experience a fresh perspective of Jesus, who will not (and should not) fit into the sides.

Book excerpt: When the challenges you've faced threaten to destroy your life, how do you find your way back to the truths you thought you believed? I Am Restored tells the untold story of how Lecrae's past nearly ruined his future--until he learned that the wounds we carry can have the potential to be unlikely guides to healing and freedom for ourselves and others. Throughout I Am Restored, Lecrae documents the shattering yet hopeful story of how he faced the scars of his past--sexual abuse, physical trauma, addiction, and depression--and emerged more fully human than ever before. With remarkable transparency and vulnerability, Lecrae reveals that at the height of his professional success, his life was spinning out of control, driven by a past that he had never confronted and a religious perspective that was incapable of meeting the challenge. I Am Restored takes an unflinching look at the personal and public spaces that are too often at the societal core of our pain and heartache--culture, politics, family, church, and more--and teaches us that forgiveness can be the birthplace of the life that God has created for us. Throughout this powerful, deeply personal account, Lecrae shares the life lessons he's learned about: Confronting the pain and trauma that has shaped your story Breaking the cycle of sin and shame and embracing joy and authenticity Finding hope and healing in the midst of chaos The simple practices that can change your mental, emotional, and spiritual health Leading a life that's bursting with creativity and true freedom I Am Restored is a hopeful, inspiring charge to start your journey to lasting healing today. No matter what your past has held, God is near you, he hears you, and he's not done writing your story.

After a tough struggle with frustration and failure, a chance meeting with an unlikely mentor propels Jack toward three extraordinary people who plant the seeds of discovery he must now nurture and grow to find the remedy to his misfortune.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I’d Like You More If You Were More like Me takes on one of life’s most important questions: How can I get closer to God and other people? We were created for deep connections. When people have deep connections, says John Ortberg, they win in life. When they don’t have deep connections, they cannot win in life. I’d Like You More if You Were More like Me offers help in overcoming one of the biggest obstacles to making deep connections: the fact that we’re so different. Different from God and different from each other. The good news is that connectedness is not based on similarity, but on shared experiences. When one person invites another to share an experience, they’re connected. It can be sharing a beautiful sunset or a meal, having a great conversation over cup of coffee, going for walk, or even teasing somebody. And when we share those same experiences with God, we get closer to him, too. God wants to connect with us—so much that he sent his son to live as a human being. God took on flesh and shared every human experience. So we don’t have to wonder what a close relationship with God looks like anymore. An intimate relationship with God and other people doesn’t have to be a cliché, it can be a daily way of life.

Book excerpt: Successful Silicon Valley real estate developer and wealth creator Roy Goble shares the surprising lessons he learned as a boy working in his family junkyard. Skillfully uniting the teachings of Jesus with the sometimes messy realities of leading people and getting things done, Salvaged helps leaders at all levels discover powerful opportunities to follow Jesus in the real world—and in surprisingly simple ways. Working in his dad’s junkyard as a kid, Roy had no idea what his future held: an incredibly successful career in commercial real estate, as well as founding and leading multiple ministries, churches, and nonprofits across the globe. So when Roy talks about what it means to follow Jesus daily as a leader, people pay attention. Entrepreneurs, pastors, and managers who learn to lead from Roy won’t parrot his jargon or practice his “system”—these men and women will simply know how to lead better. After a no-nonsense and compelling introduction, Roy delivers 31 of his most surprising, memorable, and practical leadership lessons, many of which are culled from his junkyard days. Each focuses on a personal “junkyard” story, leadership lesson, and comparable Bible passage perfect for daily study. A growth and action section is included after each chapter that gets to the heart of the lesson through thought-provoking questions with action steps designed to be immediately put into practice.

Book excerpt: Learn to Love: Guide to Healing Your Disappointing Love Life is a book about learning to improve your love life. After 30 years of clinical research and treatment of patients with unhealthy love lives, I now recognize that most people are not in control of their love lives. Why? Because most people don't know what they've learned about and from the love relationships in the course of their lives. Love relationships that started in their families of origin the moment they were born. If you don't know what you've learned about love relationships, then what you've learned is in control of your love life, healthy or unhealthy. If what you've learned was healthy, no problem. Chances are you'll simply replicate what you've learned about love relationships. If what you've learned was unhealthy, you could be unwittingly making the same love life mistakes over and over again because of what you've learned. Learn to Love will show you how to identify what you've learned about love relationships, how to unlearn what is unhealthy, and practice something new, healthy, and the opposite of what you've learned, now as a corrective in your adult love life. This simple learning formulate has helped many of my patients begin taking control of their own love lives, as well as helping me improve my own love life. Learn to Love will help you learn how to take control of your love life. Dr. Thomas Jordan
