Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: YOU ARE POWERFUL BEYOND WORDS and your life has the potential to leave a monumental imprint on this world. Whether you are a doctor, lawyer, author, speaker, corporate executive, or stay-at-home mom, YOU + GOD is enough to turn any boardroom, courtroom, classroom or home into a platform of notable miracles and supernatural favor. In Unleashed and Anointed for Business, Staci Wallace gives you biblical success strategies to help you elevate your marketplace effectiveness, discern God's voice in negotiations, tap into divine wisdom, identify biblical wealth building strategies, take dominion over principalities in the workplace and be a living conduit of the healing virtue and miraculous power of the Holy Spirit. UNLEASHED and Anointed for Business is a "how to" book and life mastery course, written to give you the step-by-step training you need to have supernatural discernment in the boardroom, wisdom in the classroom, compassion at home and the miracle-working power of God in every area of your life. You will receive clear instructions on how to cooperate with your God-given destiny as His conduit of miracles, abundance, spiritual authority, and financial prosperity to the people around you. We wake up every day to reports of bombings, mass shootings, shifted morality and confused systems of basic ethics. And while we have progressed as a nation in technologies and business innovation, we have digressed as a nation in spirituality, harmony and peace. The clash of good versus evil has never been stronger, and the cry for justice has never been louder. Now is the time for a chosen remnant of God-fearing men and women to UNLEASH the full potential of God's Spirit against the darkness that has saturated our generation. As business mavericks, entrepreneurs, moms and dads, politicians, and influencers, we can no longer be apathetic to the growing animosity of darkness, perversion, and division that permeates our nation. We cannot sit back in our corner offices of padded perfection and let the world around us continue to decay. Clearly, for things to change, we must change, and God has given us the power, timing, and authority to do so. This book is meant to disrupt your comfort zone, awaken your spirit, and ignite your passion for taking action so that, together, we can make change happen in this world. You may not realize it, but God has been intricately preparing you for years, "for such a time as this." The enemy feared this day; the day you would pick up this book and become the God-fearing leader of significance you were destined to be. I assure you that the enemy of your destiny does NOT want you to finish this book, nor does he want you to recognize and fulfill your divine potential. He could care less if you become successful, climb to the top of your game, gather a mass number of followers, be a notable speaker, corporate executive, make excessive amounts of money or experience fame and fortune. But what scares the HELL out of him, is when you awaken to God's highest purpose for your life, allowing the Holy Spirit of God to flow through you, empower your decisions, and use your life and talents to penetrate the marketplace and make His name great in all the earth. God wants to use your success for a much higher purpose. Let this book challenge your thought processes, engage your core values, motivate your passions, and empower you to be UNLEASHED and Anointed for Business. Your mission field, the marketplace, awaits you. Let the great adventure begin!

Book excerpt: Women today are expected to multitask--to serve, lead, influence, manage their busy schedules, nurture their families, and at the same time harness their emotions. Meanwhile, Satan, the longtime enemy of women, tells them they are not good enough, not successful enough, and certainly not capable of making a difference. An author who knows how to access the power and gifts of the Holy Spirit in everyday life, Staci Wallace helps women resist the forces of darkness and rise up empowered to take on and win whatever battle they face. In Fueled by Fire, she takes readers on a journey through the lives of women in the Bible as well as through her own story of conquering deadly diseases, climbing corporate ladders, and raising world-changers. She inspires women to believe that, with God, anything is possible.

Book excerpt: A fresh look at the earliest Christian movement reveals what made the new faith so compelling...and what we need to change today to make it so again. Once upon a time there was a version of the Christian faith that was practically irresistible. After all, what could be more so than the gospel that Jesus ushered in? Why, then, isn't it the same with Christianity today? Author and pastor Andy Stanley is deeply concerned with the present-day church and its future. He believes that many of the solutions to our issues can be found by investigating our roots. In Irresistible, Andy chronicles what made the early Jesus Movement so compelling, resilient, and irresistible by answering these questions: What did first-century Christians know that we don't—about God's Word, about their lives, about love? What did they do that we're not doing? What makes Christianity so resistible in today's culture? What needs to change in order to repeat the growth our faith had at its beginning? Many people who leave or disparage the faith cite reasons that have less to do with Jesus than with the conduct of his followers. It's time to hit pause and consider the faith modeled by our first-century brothers and sisters who had no official Bible, no status, and little chance of survival. It's time to embrace the version of faith that initiated—against all human odds—a chain of events resulting in the most significant and extensive cultural transformation the world has ever seen. This is a version of Christianity we must remember and re-embrace if we want to be salt and light in an increasingly savorless and dark world.

Book excerpt: He wrote about vigilantes during the Covid lockdowns. What could possibly go wrong? Grant McLachlan is a researcher and writer who has exposed dirty politics at local and central government level. With a background in law and town planning, he moved to the sleepy seaside suburb of Snells Beach to convalesce. Walking his dog along the esplanade provided routine and social interaction with the large dog walking community. A group of beachfront Boomers had other ideas. Under the guise of the ratepayers’ association and Neighbourhood Support, they chipped away at banning the predominant activities of beach users. The priggish, Nimby killjoys targeted everyone from developers, picnickers, motorhomers, recreational boating, to dog walkers. Whipping themselves into a lather, they lobbied for draconian measures, then formed vigilante patrols to enforce them. When Grant researched and exposed the pensioners’ schemes, the vigilantes tried to silence him. With the help of politicians, officials, and the media, the pensioners’ repeated attempts to stitch up Grant climaxed when a little old mother of a cop threw a camera at Grant, breaking his nose, and she then fled the scene. Realising the plot, Grant withheld footage of the incident. The police charged Grant with assault and robbery. With Grant ‘silenced’ on bail for over two years as he awaited trial, the pensioners and politicians behind the plot escalated their agenda. Grant used the trial, stalled until after the local and general elections, as an opportunity to finally get answers that the plotters tried to obstruct. The racket tried to portray an isolated incident witnessed by independent witnesses. But it wasn’t an isolated incident. It was the sixth of nine plots typical of dirty politics in New Zealand’s most corrupted community: Rodney. * * * Unleashed delves into decades of political scheming, covering: - New Zealand's biggest corruption case, involving Rodney District Council and Auckland Transport; - What led to the appointment of commissioners to run Rodney District Council; - How Rodney District became part of the Auckland Council ‘Super City’; - Ross Meurant's police and political careers; - Frank Gill, Rob Muldoon, Pacifika dawn raids, Don Brash, race relations, and Orewa speeches; - Colin Craig, the Exclusive Brethren, Chris Penk, and religious political positioning; - The Bevan Chuang/Len Brown scandal; - The Rachel MacGregor/Colin Craig/Jordan Williams scandal; - The Kim Dotcom/John Banks/John Key scandal; - The Cameron Slater/Matt Blomfield scandal; - The David Garrett & Rodney Hide resignations; - The implosion of Act and the rise of the New Zealand Taxpayers' Union; - The Cameron Slater/Simon Lusk/Mark Mitchell scandal; - The Cameron Slater/Simon Lusk/Greg Sayers campaign to roll Penny Webster; - The Greg Sayers/Beth Houlbrooke scandal; - Dodgy decisions from Auckland Council’s planning, roading, biodiversity, animal management, and governance; - Dodgy police conduct, ranging from the Louis Nicholas cases, Operation Austin, IPCA conduct, to Warkworth Police; - The chambers of commerce/council rackets; - The NZ Taxpayers’ Union/Act Party racket; - Media rackets; - Rackets involving the council and ratepayers’ groups; and - The money and influence in Auckland's - and New Zealand's - corridors of power. If there was a political scandal over the past 25 years, the chances are that there was a connection with the Rodney area.

Book excerpt: Magisterial, revelatory, and-most suitably-entertaining, What the Eye Hears offers an authoritative account of the great American art of tap dancing. Brian Seibert, a dance critic for The New York Times, begins by exploring tap's origins as a hybrid of the jig and clog dancing from the British Isles and dances brought from Africa by slaves. He tracks tap's transfer to the stage through blackface minstrelsy and charts its growth as a cousin to jazz in the vaudeville circuits and nightclubs of the early twentieth century. Seibert chronicles tap's spread to ubiquity on Broadway and in Hollywood, analyzes its decline after World War II, and celebrates its rediscovery and reinvention by new generations of American and international performers. In the process, we discover how the history of tap dancing is central to any meaningful account of American popular culture. This is a story with a huge cast of characters, from Master Juba (it was probably a performance of his in a Five Points cellar that Charles Dickens described in American Notes for General Circulation) through Bill Robinson and Shirley Temple, Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers, and Gene Kelly and Paul Draper to Gregory Hines and Savion Glover. Seibert traces the stylistic development of tap through individual practitioners, vividly depicting dancers both well remembered and now obscure. And he illuminates the cultural exchange between blacks and whites over centuries, the interplay of imitation and theft, as well as the moving story of African-Americans in show business, wielding enormous influence as they grapple with the pain and pride of a complicated legacy.What the Eye Hears teaches us to see and hear the entire history of tap in its every step.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about the great moral issues underlying many of the headline-making political controversies of our times. It is not a comforting book but a book about disturbing and dangerous trends. The Quest for Cosmic Justice shows how confused conceptions of justice end up promoting injustice, how confused conceptions of equality end up promoting inequality, and how the tyranny of social visions prevents many people from confronting the actual consequences of their own beliefs and policies. Those consequences include the steady and dangerous erosion of fundamental principles of freedom -- amounting to a quiet repeal of the American revolution. The Quest for Cosmic Justice is the summation of a lifetime of study and thought about where we as a society are headed -- and why we need to change course before we do irretrievable damage.

Book excerpt: A groundbreaking new history of the United States, showing how Christian faith and the pursuit of petroleum fueled America's rise to global power and shaped today's political clashes Anointed with Oil places religion and oil at the center of American history. As prize-winning historian Darren Dochuk reveals, from the earliest discovery of oil in America during the Civil War, citizens saw oil as the nation's special blessing and its peculiar burden, the source of its prophetic mission in the world. Over the century that followed and down to the present day, the oil industry's leaders and its ordinary workers together fundamentally transformed American religion, business, and politics -- boosting America's ascent as the preeminent global power, giving shape to modern evangelical Christianity, fueling the rise of the Republican Right, and setting the terms for today's political and environmental debates. Ranging from the Civil War to the present, from West Texas to Saudi Arabia to the Alberta Tar Sands, and from oil-patch boomtowns to the White House, this is a sweeping, magisterial book that transforms how we understand our nation's history.

Book excerpt: The authoritative account of the rise of Amazon and its intensely driven founder, Jeff Bezos, praised by the Seattle Times as "the definitive account of how a tech icon came to life." Amazon.com started off delivering books through the mail. But its visionary founder, Jeff Bezos, wasn't content with being a bookseller. He wanted Amazon to become the everything store, offering limitless selection and seductive convenience at disruptively low prices. To do so, he developed a corporate culture of relentless ambition and secrecy that's never been cracked. Until now. Brad Stone enjoyed unprecedented access to current and former Amazon employees and Bezos family members, giving readers the first in-depth, fly-on-the-wall account of life at Amazon. Compared to tech's other elite innovators -- Jobs, Gates, Zuckerberg -- Bezos is a private man. But he stands out for his restless pursuit of new markets, leading Amazon into risky new ventures like the Kindle and cloud computing, and transforming retail in the same way Henry Ford revolutionized manufacturing. The Everything Store is the revealing, definitive biography of the company that placed one of the first and largest bets on the Internet and forever changed the way we shop and read.

If you have ever felt misaligned, this book is for you. If you have lost the rhythm, the passion, or the thrill of living in alignment, then keep reading. As He did with the very cells that comprise our bodies and the dry bones that were joined together for new life, God has given us deeper instincts to be attracted to those things that fit a higher and better purpose. Never settle for less than God's best for your life. Some people have the courage to move beyond the ordinary, from the methodical mediocre into the revolutionary realization of where they belong. You can have this sense of belonging only when you connect to your core calling. The calling to creativity, the calling to teach, to give, to build, are all part of allowing your instinct to guide you to the "something more" that you suspect is out there. If you are ready to break through the confines of where you are and discover where you are meant to be, then Instinct is your key! !--EndFragment--

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Never in a million years did Jamie Dahl ever think that she would hear those fateful words, "You have cancer." But it was those exact words that started her on the most challenging trial of her life. Jamie was a healthy, 43-year-old wife and mother of two daughters with no genetic markers or family history of breast cancer. Yet in an instant, she found herself facing this terrifying diagnosis and all of the unknowns that come along with it. Jamie was raised with a strong faith in God, but up until this point, never realized how much she would need to lean on her beliefs to get her through this trial. Through her inspiring story, she beautifully shares how God faithfully walked beside her every step of the way beginning with the day of her diagnosis. She paints a moving picture of how He never left her side using real examples and heartwarming stories. Part One is her breast cancer journey. Jamie begins by detailing the moment she discovered a lump in her breast, continues through the agonizing process of developing her treatment plan, the challenges of chemotherapy, and finally addresses her double mastectomy surgery. Jamie articulates her thoughts and emotions through all of these stages, with both authenticity and humor. She vulnerably shares how her diagnosis affected both her husband and their daughters, and how they worked through this challenge together as a family. Part Two is a collection of Jamie's "gems." These are lessons she learned along the way, tips, and tricks for other women experiencing a similar diagnosis and anecdotes for anyone facing a challenging time in their lives. She shares her insight on topics such as what it's like to lose your hair, or how to put your life back together during the recovery stage. Even difficult and often unspoken concerns such as physical intimacy after cancer are addressed. I Have Two Words for You is a must-read for anyone facing a breast cancer diagnosis. This book will make you feel like you are curled up on the couch with a close friend, and no question is off the table. Jamie's words will make you laugh and make you cry, but most importantly, they will give you hope. Her inspirational story and how her faith in God remained a constant source of strength in the middle of a very dark season, is a breath of fresh air. No matter what type of storm you are facing, Jamie's story will inspire you to believe in the impossible and live with no regrets. I Have Two Words for You is a touching guide written to help women facing breast cancer see the light at the end of the tunnel and to show them that they are not alone. Jamie believes that Her passion is to use her story to help women find the strength to go on, and to not only survive but to thrive!

Book excerpt: A sweeping history of the legendary private investment firm Brown Brothers Harriman, exploring its central role in the story of American wealth and its rise to global power Conspiracy theories have always swirled around Brown Brothers Harriman, and not without reason. Throughout the nineteenth century, when America was convulsed by a devastating financial panic essentially every twenty years, Brown Brothers quietly went from strength to strength, propping up the U.S. financial system at crucial moments and catalyzing successive booms, from the cotton trade and the steamship to the railroad, while largely managing to avoid the unwelcome attention that plagued some of its competitors. By the turn of the twentieth century, Brown Brothers was unquestionably at the heart of what was meant by an American Establishment. As America's reach extended beyond its shores, Brown Brothers worked hand in glove with the State Department, notably in Nicaragua in the early twentieth century, where the firm essentially took over the country's economy. To the Brown family, the virtue of their dealings was a given; their form of muscular Protestantism, forged on the playing fields of Groton and Yale, was the acme of civilization, and it was their duty to import that civilization to the world. When, during the Great Depression, Brown Brothers ensured their strength by merging with Averell Harriman's investment bank to form Brown Brothers Harriman, the die was cast for the role the firm would play on the global stage during World War II and thereafter, as its partners served at the highest levels of government to shape the international system that defines the world to this day. In Inside Money, acclaimed historian, commentator, and former financial executive Zachary Karabell offers the first full and frank look inside this institution against the backdrop of American history. Blessed with complete access to the company's archives, as well as a thrilling understanding of the larger forces at play, Karabell has created an X-ray of American power--financial, political, cultural--as it has evolved from the early 1800s to the present. Today, unlike many of its competitors, Brown Brothers Harriman remains a private partnership and a beacon of sustainable capitalism, having forgone the heady speculative upsides of the past thirty years but also having avoided any role in the devastating downsides. The firm is no longer in the command capsule of the American economy, but, arguably, that is to its credit. If its partners cleaved to any one adage over the generations, it is that a relentless pursuit of more can destroy more than it creates.
