Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • “The authors bring extreme climbing to life. . . . Perhaps no author can rationalize why some choose to risk their lives . . . for the thrill of conquering a mountain. The Ledge comes perilously close and tells a ripping true story at the same time.”—The Denver Post In June 1992, best friends Jim Davidson and Mike Price stood atop Washington’s Mount Rainier, celebrating what they hoped would be the first of many milestones in their lives as passionate mountaineers. Then their triumph turned tragic when a cave-in plunged them deep inside a glacial crevasse—the pitch-black, ice-walled hell of every climber’s nightmares. An avid adventurer since youth, Davidson was a seasoned climber at the time of the Rainier ascent. But the harrowing free fall left him challenged by nature’s grandeur at its most unforgiving. Trapped on a narrow frozen shelf, deep below daylight, he desperately battled crumbling ice, snow that threatened to bury him alive, and crippling fear of the inescapable chasm below—all the while struggling to save his fatally injured friend. Finally, alone, with little equipment and rapidly dwindling hope, he confronted a fateful choice: the certainty of a slow, lonely death or the near impossibility of an agonizing climb for life. A story of heart-stopping adventure, heartfelt friendship, fleeting mortality, and implacable nature, The Ledge chronicles the elation and grief, dizzying heights and punishing depths, of a journey to hard-won wisdom. “Plunges readers into a dark, icy chasm from which escape seems impossible. Then it reveals the strength it takes to look up, and to start climbing.”—Jim Sheeler, winner of the Pulitzer Prize and author of the National Book Award finalist Final Salute “How [Davidson] rescued himself is the core of The Ledge, and its most gripping part. The physical effort and will involved are astonishing.”—The Plain Dealer “A moving portrait of friendship and loss.”—The Wall Street Journal

Book excerpt: Devotion to the corporate workplace was blurring my truth, and in one day, I found myself betrayed, alone, and questioning everything the future held. This began a quest for answers to why we often choose work or money over whom, or what, is really important to us. It provoked me to ask honest questions I may only inquire if I knew life was going to end. Faced with a simple question "would this matter if it was your last six months" I started to live again. Each day finding joy and gratitude for the people and things that really matter most.

Book excerpt: How many men can relate to Mitch (Billy Crystal) in the movie City Slickers, riding across the vast frontier searching for that "one thing" but having no idea what that means? They seek prosperity as the world defines it (wealth, power and short-term satisfaction) rather than prosperity as our Creator designed it (influence, significance and everlasting joy). One Thing - Player's Manual for Men redirects men's efforts from self-glory to living their life for God's glory. Using scripture, personal examples and the counsel of other wise men, the reader will learn how each area of his life - relationships, career, finances, health and recreation - can be lived in prosperity, all to God's glory.
