Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Guidance for Your Journey Sometimes, God’s Word is like candlelight that warms and comforts. Other times, it is a red flashing light that protects. Often, it’s a spotlight that exposes your need. And since you are called to walk by faith, you need light—in all its various forms—guiding your steps. Jennifer Rothschild ’s path, darkened by physical blindness, is illuminated by scriptural truth. And now she shares the keys to persevering and “clinging to the Sword” no matter what your circumstances. Lessons I Learned in the Light is a powerful collection of Scripture, intriguing autobiographical sketches, and pointed Bible study with personal, practical application questions that will encourage you every step of the way. “Your word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.” Psalm 119:105 Have you known darkness? Are you there even now? There is a ray of hope that brings clarity and guidance: God’s Word—the Light that is better than life. And it wields the power to see you through absolutely anything. Jennifer Rothschild , in her physical blindness, found the secret to persevering with endurance and shares it candidly. No matter what you face today, Lessons I Learned in the Light will help you: cling to His Word carry no baggage pray like crazy be God-conscious enjoy the fish bowl No matter how dark the road, you can travel it courageously, secure in the Light. “For these commands and this teaching are a lamp to light the way ahead of you” (Proverbs 6:23 , NLT). “Jennifer Rothschild is a sincere and transparent example of what it means to press toward the goal—to live a thriving, courageous life in Christ.” Sara Groves Singer/songwriter “Like the Renaissance artists of old, Jennifer Rothschild sees with her heart. Through self-discipline, acute observation, and Christ centeredness, the tapestry of her life has been woven together by an unshakeable faith.” Luci Swindoll Author and speaker, Women of Faith “Her gentle, pleasing style first draws readers in and captures their imaginations. Only then does she deliver her more powerful punches." Publishers Weekly Story Behind the Book “I don’t have the privilege of reading God’s Word in the traditional sense, but I still rely on it as my source of power—power to persevere and thrive in a world of darkness. Without it, I would have quit a long time ago. Proverbs 6:23 says ‘These commands and this teaching are a lamp to light the way ahead of you’ (NLT). While Lessons I Learned in the Dark provided principles for walking by faith, Lessons I Learned in the Light offers fuel for running with endurance.” — Jennifer Rothschild From the Trade Paperback edition.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "No other researcher has been able to transmit to the rest of us the true meaning and impact of near-death phenomena for the planet."--Bruce Greyson, MD, bestselling author of After: A Doctor Explores What Near-Death Experiences Reveal about Life and Beyond "A major contribution that offers a wealth of fresh case materials together with balanced and insightful commentary." --Raymond A. Moody, PhD, author of Life After Life While providing many remarkable accounts of near-death experiences (NDEs) from men, women, and children of all ages and backgrounds, Lessons from the Light is much more than just an inspiring collection of NDEs. In Lessons from the Light, near-death expert Kenneth Ring extracts the pure gold of the NDE and with a beautiful balance of sound research and human insight reveals the practical wisdom held within these experiences. Unlike many other books on the subject of NDEs, which are about or by persons who have had these life-changing encounters, Lessons from the Light is intended mainly for those who have never had an NDE themselves but who wish to learn from those who have. In clear language, the practical lessons for living and dying are to be found from the study of NDEs. Written by one of the foremost authorities on NDEs, Dr. Kenneth Ring, Lessons from the Light is a book for those who looking to gain knowledge and wisdom to enhance their own lives by incorporating the insights stemming from what many people have come to believe is the ultimate spiritual experience of our time. Readers will discover for themselves what others have had nearly to die to learn, and how their own lives can blossom in ways that are typical for persons who have undergone NDEs directly. Although Lessons from the Light recounts many moving stories of NDEs, it is not just another book filled with inspiring testimonies but has helpful guidance and practical exercises concerning how readers can make use of this knowledge to live with greater self-insight, self-compassion and concern for others, as well as to be better prepared for death, dying, and bereavement. Readers can easily apply what they have learned to their own lives and absorb and internalize these lessons from the Light in such a way as to lead to deep personal and spiritual transformation. This edition replaces the previous edition (ISBN 978-1930491113) and contains a new postscript by the author.

Book excerpt: “If you’d asked me who God is on December 9, the year of my accident, I would have been able to give you a fairly cohesive but theoretical answer. A day later all of that changed.” A simple surgery went horribly wrong. Steve Sjogren died on the operating table. He encountered a heavenly world where he felt infinite peace. And then he had to come back—back to a physical reality filled with pain and disability and an endless line of tests. The drama of dying suddenly paled in comparison to the trauma of living. Sjogren could not face this new existence with his same old comfortable understanding of God. “I had minimized God,” Sjogren says. “Somehow, over time, he had become fairly predictable—like he could be outlined, fully grasped, and contained in a neat set of mere ideas. Now I saw that he apparently wasn’t all that impressed with my cool little notebooks.” One day in heaven followed by hundreds in agony forged a deeper and stronger faith than Sjogren could have crafted on his own. In Heaven’s Lessons, Sjogren shares his experiences and the life-changing ways they have affected his perspective on success, suffering, and the mysteries of God.

From the oldest pub in the world to the Liberty Bell and the origins of a nation, Established: Lessons from the World’s Oldest Companies tells the stories of twelve businesses with a combined age of almost 5,000 years. They’ve survived war, plague, rebellion, boom, bust, depression and strange twists of fate. But how and what can we learn from them.

With his tips, any guy can become a leading man.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this rich collection, bestselling author Adam Hochschild has selected and updated over two dozen essays and pieces of reporting from his long career. Threaded through them all is his concern for social justice and the people who have fought for it. The articles here range from a California gun show to a Finnish prison, from a Congolese center for rape victims to the ruins of gulag camps in the Soviet Arctic, from a stroll through construction sites with an ecologically pioneering architect in India to a day on the campaign trail with Nelson Mandela. Hochschild also talks about the writers he loves, from Mark Twain to John McPhee, and explores such far-reaching topics as why so much history is badly written, what bookshelves tell us about their owners, and his front-row seat for the shocking revelation in the 1960s that the CIA had been secretly controlling dozens of supposedly independent organizations. With the skills of a journalist, the knowledge of a historian, and the heart of an activist, Hochschild shares the stories of people who took a stand against despotism, spoke out against unjust wars and government surveillance, and dared to dream of a better and more just world.
