Book excerpt: In writing my second book of poetry, I again put down my recollections of life past and present, and hope that the reader will identify with my words and understand where I am coming from. As in my first book, the theme is about life with its many twists and turns, which lead us to the places we find ourselves today. I fervently hope you enjoy my work and in some way understand its meaning against the modern way of life today. -Mike Williams

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BEST SELLER • The raw, candid, unvarnished memoir of an American icon. The greatest movie star of the past 75 years covers everything: his traumatic childhood, his career, his drinking, his thoughts on Marlon Brando, James Dean, Elizabeth Taylor, John Huston, his greatest roles, acting, his intimate life with Joanne Woodward, his innermost fears and passions and joys. With thoughts/comments throughout from Joanne Woodward, George Roy Hill, Tom Cruise, Elia Kazan and many others. A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR: TIME and Vanity Fair "Newman at his best…with his self-aware persona, storied marriage and generous charitable activities…this rich book somehow imbues his characters’ pain and joy with fresh technicolor." —The Wall Street Journal In 1986, Paul Newman and his closest friend, screenwriter Stewart Stern, began an extraordinary project. Stuart was to compile an oral history, to have Newman’s family and friends and those who worked closely with him, talk about the actor’s life. And then Newman would work with Stewart and give his side of the story. The only stipulation was that anyone who spoke on the record had to be completely honest. That same stipulation applied to Newman himself. The project lasted five years. The result is an extraordinary memoir, culled from thousands of pages of transcripts. The book is insightful, revealing, surprising. Newman’s voice is powerful, sometimes funny, sometimes painful, always meeting that high standard of searing honesty. The additional voices—from childhood friends and Navy buddies, from family members and film and theater collaborators such as Tom Cruise, George Roy Hill, Martin Ritt, and John Huston—that run throughout add richness and color and context to the story Newman is telling. Newman’s often traumatic childhood is brilliantly detailed. He talks about his teenage insecurities, his early failures with women, his rise to stardom, his early rivals (Marlon Brando and James Dean), his first marriage, his drinking, his philanthropy, the death of his son Scott, his strong desire for his daughters to know and understand the truth about their father. Perhaps the most moving material in the book centers around his relationship with Joanne Woodward—their love for each other, his dependence on her, the way she shaped him intellectually, emotionally and sexually. The Extraordinary Life of an Ordinary Man is revelatory and introspective, personal and analytical, loving and tender in some places, always complex and profound.

Book excerpt: Sir, you asked me who I am. What shall I say? I have been asking myself this question for quite some time and reached nowhere. After all I am no saint to throw away everything that I have and go in search of an answer. If I had, I would have been a saint. Don’t you agree? Well I have a name, but what’s in a name? You may call me an Ordinary Man. The narrator in a series of conversations with a friend who he says is his alter ego and through his own introspections, unfolds the process of growing up and aging through an exploration of all that had brought joy in living to serious questions regarding God, religion, destiny, freewill, compassion and to whether we have been really honest in our relationships; the relationships that have affected us at various stages in our life and continue to influence even our present living. They are all locked up somewhere within our private world and which we release and relish in our solitude. Though ‘I am just An Ordinary Man’ is an autobiographical novel, it is only in parts that real events have been narrated to build a base for addressing the questions and the existential angst which arise in the mind of any person during the process of living and that the first step towards resolution is in acceptance of the reality of existence and the finality of death.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: D. A. Carson's father was a pioneering church-planter and pastor in Quebec. But still, an ordinary pastor-except that he ministered during the decades that brought French Canada from the brutal challenges of persecution and imprisonment for Baptist ministers to spectacular growth and revival in the 1970s. It is a story, and an era, that few in the English-speaking world know anything about. But through Tom Carson's journals and written prayers, and the narrative and historical background supplied by his son, readers will be given a firsthand account of not only this trying time in North American church history, but of one pastor's life and times, dreams and disappointments. With words that will ring true for every person who has devoted themselves to the Lord's work, this unique book serves to remind readers that though the sacrifices of serving God are great, the sweetness of living a faithful, obedient life is greater still.

Book excerpt: Ordinary is not a call to be more radical. If anything, it is a call to the contrary. The kingdom of God isn’t coming with light shows, and shock and awe, but with lowly acts of service. Tony Merida wants to push back against sensationalism and “rock star Christianity,” and help people understand that they can make a powerful impact by practicing ordinary Christianity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this collection of beautifully written essays, you will discover wonder, deep insights and awaken to the beauty which surrounds your life. What really lasts? What remains of all our thoughts and efforts? What, more than anything else, do we hope and pray and wish with all our heart to always remember? And what do we - above all else, wish to be remembered for? The yearning, burning ecstatic heart-ache - that lifts us up and lets us down intermittently. Those are among the meaningful questions that follow us through our everyday; attempting to guide and inspire us, even when our awareness of that grace-filled fact, is akin to a single fast-fading fragment of a long-forgotten dream. We keep coming back to those soul-shaping questions, whether we care to or not, because those are the questions that refuse to let us go! Fate, destiny, and an unbridled love and passion for the creative process - those three things, inextricably woven into the fabric of life, create the central thesis of this book you are about to venture into. The book itself - through honest stories, heart-felt vignettes, timeless reflections, and scattered poems, will best reveal the trajectory of this life I've been given, and would be honored to share with you through the course of this book. This is my impassioned invitation to you the reader to keep reading - turn the pages and tap into the beauty, power, and energy of your own unique awareness. These are simply the Insights of an Ordinary Man - with the IOAOM empowered acronym. IOAOM, with its acronymic O's for eyes looking up at you as you glance over them. And when those O's for eyes close or disappear, we are left with only the I AM.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fascinating story of two courageous opponents in Hitler’s Germany who both bravely resisted the Nazis—for World War II history buffs and fans of little-known histories. “A story that needs to be heard.” —Library Journal During the twelve years of Hitler’s Third Reich, very few Germans took the risk of actively opposing his tyranny and terror, and fewer still did so to protect the sanctity of law and faith. In No Ordinary Men, Elisabeth Sifton and Fritz Stern focus on two remarkable, courageous men who did—the pastor and theologian Dietrich Bonhoeffer and his close friend and brother-in-law Hans von Dohnanyi—and offer new insights into the fearsome difficulties that resistance entailed. (Not forgotten is Christine Bonhoeffer Dohnanyi, Hans’s wife and Dietrich’s sister, who was indispensable to them both.) From the start Bonhoeffer opposed the Nazi efforts to bend Germany’s Protestant churches to Hitler’s will, while Dohnanyi, a lawyer in the Justice Ministry and then in the Wehrmacht’s counterintelligence section, helped victims, kept records of Nazi crimes to be used as evidence once the regime fell, and was an important figure in the various conspiracies to assassinate Hitler. The strength of their shared commitment to these undertakings—and to the people they were helping—endured even after their arrest in April 1943 and until, after great suffering, they were executed on Hitler’s express orders in April 1945, just weeks before the Third Reich collapsed. Bonhoeffer’s posthumously published Letters and Papers from Prison and other writings found a wide international audience, but Dohnanyi’s work is scarcely known, though it was crucial to the resistance and he was the one who drew Bonhoeffer into the anti-Hitler plots. Sifton and Stern offer dramatic new details and interpretations in their account of the extraordinary efforts in which the two jointly engaged. No Ordinary Men honors both Bonhoeffer’s human decency and his theological legacy, as well as Dohnanyi’s preservation of the highest standard of civic virtue in an utterly corrupted state.

Let this compilation of his reflections do for you what Joe has done for me. Read and reflect and then pass it on to someone else who might also benefit from the wisdom of a man who certainly is no ”Ordinary Joe.” Hutch Schilling, CEO / Owner, The Nexen Group “Joe Eastman’s solid and practical view of “everyman’s” life provides a clear and calming roadmap that encourages us to open our eyes and hearts to the positive realities surrounding our constant growth.” Patrick Peyton, Chairman / CEO Despatch Industries “This “Ordinary Joe” has a unique and insightful view of our journey through Life. If you enjoyed Joe’s first book of reflections, What is Becoming Clearer to Me, this is a must read to continue the journey. If you missed his first book its time to start your journey with his second offering. John Somrock, Chairman, Delta Dental of Minnesota, and the Nexen Group. “Joe inspires us to think about life issues and events from a unique vantage point; to explore our purpose, give meaning to what we do, and encourage the possibilities.” Camille Chang Gilmore, Vice President, Human Resources & Chief Diversity Officer Boston Scientific Corporation “One of the most engaging and inspiring books I have read. Joe Eastman invites you to join him on a journey to discover not only who you are, but to envision and create the person you want to be.” Melissa Logan, President, Logan Consulting “In a few carefully chosen words, Joe shines a light on life and asks, is there meaning, passion, and balance.” John Byom, Owner, Classic Provisions “Having followed Joe’s inspirations for almost 20 years, I can truly say that this collection of reflections continues to be probing, thought provoking, and motivating; always focused on what really matters in life. His reflections are far from ordinary.” Chris Doan, Chairman and CEO, TeamSAI, Inc. “ Joe’s written thoughts and observations of life’s nuances are more than inspirational words. His reflections challenge and guide the captured reader to unclutter their lives and appreciate what is truly important in the balance of business and family.” Dan Potterton , Chief Operating Officer, FEI Behavioral Health, Inc. “’I have always appreciated Joe’s thoughtfulness and insights into social political and moral issues. His ability to stimulate reasoned thought and discussion on such issues is always meaningful. It is once again reflected in this new book.” Fred Hamer, President, Unison Sales and Marketing Consultants WHAT AMAZON READERS HAVE SAID ABOUT JOE’S FIRST BOOK ,”WHAT IS BECOMING CLEARER TO ME.” Delightful! “A thought provoking book not only to be read, but to be savored. Each of the author’s reflections is an opportunity for the reader to gain personal insights into life’s everyday moments. A delightful book from beginning to end.” An eye-opening read! “This has been one of the most thought-provoking books I’ve read in a long time. Well written and stimulating one’s thoughts about this world we live in and what we hold dear and important.” Insightful and uplifting- great way to look at life! “Joe’s reflections are fun and inspiring, thought-provoking and charming. He takes ordinary moments and turns them into spiritual awakenings. He proves the bit of knowledge that Bagger Vance taught Junuh–there are no “ordinary moments.”
