Book Synopsis Keep On Standing by : Darlene Polachic
Download or read book Keep On Standing written by Darlene Polachic and published by Castle Quay Books. This book was released on 2007-09-05 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 1989 student massacre in Lubumbashi, Zaire under the brutal rule of dictator President Mobutu Sese Seko was almost the end for brothers Michel, Fabian and Aliston Lwamba. Escaping with only their lives, that day was a grim and deadly reality marking the beginning of an incredible saga that changed their lives forever. During the chaos, the Lwambas were separated from each other, living in refugee camps for over five years and leaving many of their relatives for dead. They survived violence, disease, depression and starvation before they met God and found in Him both the reason and the will to keep on standing. Eventually Michel and Aliston were sponsored and given the opportunity to migrate to Canada, and later miraculously reunited with their brother Fabian, who was feared to have been killed. Today, the music that the brothers shared in the refugee camps that brought people purpose and healing, has led them to found the group Krystaal, whose award winning music style blends gospel, hip-hop, R&B and African styles. In September 2006, they launched the "Krystaal World Peace Tour," advocating peace -- politically, interpersonally and spiritually -- around the world. Their aim is to share with others the hope that music brought to them, particularly to children, who like themselves, have been orphaned by war. Keep On Standing - The Story of Krystaal is a true story of hope, faith and deliverance.
Book Synopsis Find A Broken Wall by : Brian C Stiller
Download or read book Find A Broken Wall written by Brian C Stiller and published by Castle Quay Books. This book was released on 2012-06-01 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When it is assumed there is little more to say about leadership, Brian Stiller surprises us with new, fresh and creative insights. Unwrapping the ancient Old Testament story of Nehemiah, he identifies 7 principles on building and renewing ministries and organizations. Surrounding these principles are workable concepts connected to inspiring stories of faith. Drawing on a lifetime of leadership, he writes about what it takes to lead. He examines the challenges leaders face, surveying them first from 33,000 feet, then at ground level describing what it takes to move from an idea to effective completion. The freshness of his stories and the clarity of his counsel come from a real life experience—this is what he has done. Framed by the ancient story of Nehemiah, the Hebrew who returned to rebuild the walls of Jerusalem, Stiller examines the text and draws from his own life experiences, then skillfully applies the principles of Nehemiah to 21st Century leaders. Stiller doesn’t back down from facing the challenges of leading: he makes it clear it is not for the faint hearted. He faces what leaders inevitably must deal with—politics isn’t everything but everything is political.

This book was released on 2011-06-01 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Life, as we know it, will end. It’s not a thought that tends to occupy our minds when we are young and in full health and vigor. We take risks, some foolhardy. We live as though we were immortal. And then when we have our own children we are renewed and life is good. But we can’t look in the mirror every day without noticing subtle signs of change. We can’t lose a loved one without reflecting on the passage of time and being nagged by the question, “What is it in life that I have yet to accomplish?” Then it’s not a giant leap from asking that question about ourselves to wanting to know “What happens when I die?” Brian Stiller, author of When Life Hurts took on the task of answering this challenging question. Where is the proof that anything is going to happen after death? Why not just live life for the day, because that may be all there is? What Happens When I Die? is a journey toward understanding the nature of life after death, one that leads ultimately to the Scriptures and the promise given by God. It is a promise rooted in faith and joy. It is a promise that has everything to do with what we make of our life here on earth. What Happens When I Die? is not just about death, but about living a fulfilled, loving and caring life. The choice is ultimately ours to seek and God’s gift—or not. But the way had been prepared as this insightful and thought-provoking book affirms

Forced to beg from hut to hut in search of food, Charles scrapes out a meagre existence while trying to come to terms with his abusive past and seemingly hopeless future. As a teenager, Charles is invited by a friend to a crusade where he commits his life to Christ. That act begins a unique adventure of faith, miracles, and a passion for reaching street children. After years of struggle, Charles experiences unprecedented success. He finds a wonderful wife, raises a family, excels in business to such a degree that he creates an empire that is noticed by the President of Kenya. Charles becomes a pinnacle in the Church movement, but then his life changes again. In spite of his tremendous achievements, the plight of the growing street children problem in his country remains strong in Charles' heart. He is unable to shut out their cries, the cries he understands so well, and he realizes he must respond. Convicted by God to give away all his possessions, Charles sells everything to pursue his passion of rescuing street children from the slums of Kenya. He battles against corrupt religious establishments, supernatural enemies, and intense financial pressures to bring hope to those whose lives reflect his own childhood.

Book excerpt: Are you called upon to give wisdom and direction, inspiration and hope, vision and paths of execution – sometimes with little notice? Leaders get this all the time - and being a leader at home, at church or in an organization - is not easy. So where does one access the resources to make decisions and to lead? If you desire to be better prepared the next time you feel discouraged...by leadership indecision; by hardships of your role pressing in on you; or by waning enthusiasm about being a leader...

This mentor, seasoned by experience, shares a collection of spiritually insightful thoughts. With gripping honesty these practical nuggets are delivered as if you are sitting across the desk from a trusted friend. Included with each is a scriptural verse pointing towards faith and God’s promise to walk with you through each day. For each topic, Carson hones in on leadership values while providing tested practices learned through his lifework developing servant leaders. Woven into each section is a prayer that can be used to guide a leader’s own prayers into their situation. Every page invites God to speak to the reader and enjoy the peace of His presence.

Book Synopsis Certainty: A Place to Stand by : Grant Richison
Download or read book Certainty: A Place to Stand written by Grant Richison and published by Castle Quay Books. This book was released on 2011-02-15 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two centuries before Christ, the Greek mathematician and inventor Archimedes experimented with the lever. He declared that he could “move the earth” if he had a place to stand somewhere in the cosmos. People need a certain place to stand, a point of reference beyond the self. In this bold critique of the emergent church of postevangelicals, Dr. Grant Richison, well-known Bible expositor (versebyversecommentary.com), draws a line in the sand to prevent further erosion of the certainty that we can stand on the absolute truth of the Bible. In his rejection of relativism, he lights the way for those who would present the gospel with certainty and clarity.

This amazing “trip of a lifetime” will leave readers chilled and constantly moving between deep sorrow and bubbling joy. Angelina’s gripping account of her personal struggle with lonlieness, depression, and intense grief becomes a major tribute to the grace and love of God. Seven Angels for Seven Days is a must-read for believers. Winner of the 2004 First-time Canadian Christian Author award.
