Book excerpt: This collection of inspirational vignettes, based on eight of the Bible's unlikely examples of faith, will give readers a fresh intimacy with Jesus. Remarkable Faith tells the stories of people whose faith was of such quality that Jesus himself marveled at it-people who were broken, needy, and dependent. These eight inspiring vignettes weave history, theology, and fictional detail into their biblical accounts to bring relief and a new perspective to those whose faith feels unremarkable. Written to encourage and relieve discouraged Christians who wonder if their faith is a disappointment to God, this book will demonstrate that remarkable faith-the kind Jesus marveled about-isn't about achieving or performing. Readers will discover they can exchange their performance-based evaluation of their faith with a fresh, life-giving intimacy with the Jesus who delights in transforming inadequacies into irrepressible affection.

Book excerpt: The Amazing Story of One Faithful Man...One Extraordinary Vision... One Unstoppable Movement. An unforgettable chronicle of courage, determination, faith, and humility, Amazing Faith is the exclusive and inspiring account of how Dr. Bill Bright, founder and president of Campus Crusade for Christ International, stepped out in simple, unwavering obedience to God. Readers will delight in the extraordinary story of how an obedient Oklahoman left the ranch at God's urging, and how that obedience opened the door to reaching literally millions of lives with the message of Christ's love and the coming Kingdom. From Bright's formative years in the Midwest to the lonely struggles and all-too-human foibles of his early ministry...the founding of the unparalleled Campus Crusade movement to the explosive global outreaches of the new millennium...this authorized, behind-the-scenes biography leaves no stone unturned in its examination of a humble life remarkably used by God-a life which, by God's power, has made an impact on three billion souls. Written by a retired investigative reporter who has closely followed the life and ministry of Dr. Bright for more than a decade, and with a foreword by Dr. Billy Graham, Amazing Faith uncovers the calling, the passion, the strategic thinking, the sacrifice, and the astounding impact of one man committed to bold evangelism, disciple-ship, and the fulfillment of the Great Commission in his lifetime. "He's just the kind of man I had in mind when I started the program twenty-five years ago because he's an example to everybody of all religions that it's possible to have progress in religion." -Sir John Templeton, founder of the Templeton Prize for Progress in Religion, which Dr. Bill Bright was awarded in 1996. He donated the $1 million honorarium to support a national movement of prayer and fasting.

Book excerpt: Senior pastor Brady Boyd draws parallels between the early church at Corinth and today’s culture to illustrate how Christians can stay true to their beliefs and live a loving and faith-filled life—demonstrating a new way to interact with the modern world. Lead pastor of New Life Church Brady Boyd encourages us to look beyond the archetypical pitfalls Christians historically have fallen victim to: Instigators hold an “us-against-you” outlook towards anyone whose beliefs differ from theirs; Isolators go into holy hiding and choose to associate exclusively with those who think like them; and Integrators slide so seamlessly into the surrounding culture that they become ingrained in it. Instead, as Boyd illuminates here in Remarkable, Paul the Apostle proposes a new approach, one centered on God’s wisdom rather than societal temptations and popular culture. Through Paul’s teachings, Boyd shows us how we can not only learn to hear the Word, but also live it, reclaiming the peace, the freedom, and the joy that we lost by imitating the modern world. Remarkable reminds us that by embracing the vision Paul held for followers of God, we can begin leading truly remarkable lives by letting love guide us every step of the way.

Book excerpt: Leaders get the organizations they deserve. Effective leadership begins on the inside, and enduring leadership grows out of the leader's relationship with Christ. The Business of Faith brings to life timeless, practical biblical truths that every good leader must learn: - True leadership begins with self-leadership. - Effective conflict resolution transforms the workplace. - Fear limits our impact, while God's perfect love casts out fear. - Highly functional relationships at work change the culture. - Leaders who fight for unity produce enormous positive momentum. - Generous leaders are rare, refreshing, and deliver excellent ROI. - The ultimate benefit of generosity and mentorship is a culture of discipleship. Healthy leaders and organizations consistently demonstrate these behaviors. This type of biblical leadership is not easy. God's ways are not easy. But a faithful and abiding relationship with Christ is the key that unlocks the door to this kind of leadership. God enables and empowers personal transformation. Why? Because God wants your work to be His work. Biblical leaders have two goals. The first is to lead your organization well today. God has given you stewardship responsibility for the sake of others. The way you choose to live and lead will make a tangible difference in many lives, including the lives of people you don't even know. That is a high calling. The second goal is eternal, and it is directly related to your goal today. Everything you do at work has an eternal consequence. Jesus will dismiss the work that didn't matter. Everything we did with selfish motives will be discarded. However, all that we do for the glory of God and the benefit of others will last into eternity. God is the one calling you to be the greatest leader you can be. Don't miss out on the chance to participate in the work He has already prepared in advance for you to do. And you know that if God calls you, He will equip you. Leadership is both a privilege and a burden. God can and will change you if you let Him. And leaders changed by God change the world.

Book excerpt: Rediscover eight people in the Bible whose hopes and expectations went from disappointment to life-changing transformation through Jesus. Remarkable Hope reveals a pattern of hope where individuals were surprised by Jesus in drastic ways after they placed their hope in him and were -- at first -- disappointed. Their stories show his work was rarely what they anticipated. As we observe Christ's faithful commitment to these Biblical characters who hoped in him, we are wowed by his unseen plan. We are comforted by his orchestration of circumstances and revived by his enduring presence. Remarkable Hope helps us gladly declare, like the apostle Paul, that "our hope does not disappoint us."

Book excerpt: On a cold April day, Ben Hylden tried on his suit coat for the upcoming spring prom, then sped toward nearby Park River, North Dakota, for an appointment. Running late and driving too fast, he lost control of his car on ice, flipped the car, and was thrown out the passenger's door, plunging face-first into an icy field. Ben's face and body were crushed, along with his dreams of being a basketball star. As his battered body lay in the field, Ben's life seemed to be coming to an end. However, it turned out to only be the beginning of a journey of faith that shoed him glimpses of life beyond this world, and gave him a new perspective on what matters most.
