Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christ is "the way, and the truth, and the life";, but fallen mankind, although made in Christ's image, is not so pure. Human history—including Church history—is a tapestry woven of three threads: the good, the bad, and the beautiful. This book tells the story of Christendom over two millennia, focusing on what was good, bad, and beautiful in each century. These three threads run through the heart of every person, revealing the pattern of our individual lives. These very same threads bind together the collective lives of men and make up the fabric of culture and civilization. No one saw this three-dimensional form more clearly than Benedict XVI. For him, the goodness of the saints and the beauty of art are the only antidote to the dark thread of evil that runs through history. Inspired by this insight, Joseph Pearce presents the past twenty centuries to show how goodness and beauty—stemming from God himself—work to conquer the bad.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The highly praised Western, The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly, has been used in many game-theory courses over the years and has also found its way into leading journals of this field. Using the rich material offered by this movie, alongside other elements from popular culture, literature and history, this book furthers this exploration into a fascinating area of economics. In his series of Schumpeter lectures, Manfred J. Holler uses his analysis of Sergio Leone’s movie as a starting point to argue that combinations of desires, secrets and second-mover advantages trigger conflicts but also allow for conflict resolution. Many people and organizations have a desire for secrecy, and this is often motivated by a desire to create a second-mover advantage, and by undercutting the second-mover advantage of others. This book demonstrates that the interaction of these three ingredients account for a large share of social problems and failures in politics and business but, somewhat paradoxically, can also help to overcome some of the problems that result by applying one or two of them in isolation. This book has been written for curious readers who want to see the world from a different perspective and who like simple mathematics alongside story telling. Its accessible approach means that it will be of use to students and academics alike, especially all those interested in decision making, game theory, and market entry.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Good, bad or Desperate? We all have been there at some point of our lives. In her first book, My Father In Heaven, My Father On Earth, Sandra openly shared moments of her life when she was bad & desperate and finally declared righteous by the grace of God. Maybe today you are in a good, bad, or desperate situation because of choices that were made by you or someone else. In this study, Sandra, with her warm, genuine style directs our focus not to the women, but to a good God who is faithful in all circumstances of life. Though Bible times have changed, our Eternal God has not, and because of this we learn and grow from the women in the Bible. Do we really differ from these women in the Bible? Will you take the journey with us and find out how we can make a difference today? Sandra Gollihar is a trusted friend, wife and mother of 4 sons, one of which is a pastor in Southern California, the grandmother of 12 and great-grandmother of 2. She has touched many lives with her wit and wisdom from God's word. She has faithfully served in a Fundamental Independent Baptist Church for the last 19 years. She has taught ladies meetings and Sunday school classes of all ages; and is an active part of the visitation and soul-winning ministry.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We all long to do life together with people who really "get" us. Amy Weatherly and Jess Johnston, bestselling authors and founders of the wildly popular "Sister, I Am with You" online community, simplify some of the trickier aspects of friendship and give readers practical ways to deepen the friendships they already have. Making friends as an adult is hard! It's weird and it's tricky and it can feel overwhelming. Maintaining those friendships and taking them to a deeper level can be even harder. Just as Amy and Jess gave readers a road map for finding real, authentic relationships with I'll Be There (But I'll Be Wearing Sweatpants), they now provide a toolkit for building up and building on those friendships. Here For It (The Good, the Bad, and the Queso) will dig deeper into the hows and whys of doing life together in a culture that constantly tries to keep us separate. Readers will learn how to distinguish between different types of friendships and recognize when a seasonal relationship has run its course; understand the importance of self-awareness, healthy confrontation, and differing love languages in friendship; and maintain long-distance friendships, foster real relationships with your neighbors, and establish traditions that strengthen your connections. With this new book, Amy and Jess give readers the tools they need to continue laying a strong foundation and building relationships that are steady, secure, and made to withstand whatever life throws their way.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Good Guy, the Bad Guy, and the Ugly Truth, looks at the fact that when a man or woman is in more than one unhealthy relationship, be it physical, verbal or emotional abuse that comes to be seen as normal. While the person may state that they desire a healthy and loving relationship they tend to reject those potential partners where a healthy relationship is possible and tend to accept those partners who treat them poorly as that is what they understand. Two reasons exist for this 1. they have come to believe that the "good guy" (or girl) is an act and when the truly good person doesn't change into the "bad guy" or girl they feel they are still experiencing the act. 2. They have a damaged self esteem and self-worth and feel as thought they don't deserve better and this leads to them rejecting the person. Generally it is a combination of the two. The book examines this idea and explains it in an easy to read way without losing therapeutic value. After the subjects and ideas have been explained there are multiple self-designed exercises which are intended to help the person examine him or herself as well as their past relationships and what they truly want. They include things like the persons strengths, their weaknesses, guilt, and resentments, accountability of self and other and many more. The last section of the book talks about how a healthy relationship should exist as far as communication, sharing, time apart, respect, sexuality, and other aspects. The book is designed not only for those who have been through unhealthy relationship, but also those who have been effected by attempting to or being in a relationship with those who had unhealthy relationships. The exercises work for both men and women no matter which side they were on as well as individuals of any sexual orientation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Good, The Bad and The Godly explores marriages that dealt with love, hate, murder, deceit, adultery, sin and repentance. From Adam to Herod, we see the entire spectrum of The Good, The Bad and The Godly. Each marriage becomes a study in itself and reveals to us the importance of putting God at the front of our marriages. Some of our conclusions may surprise you and even change the way you view some of the Biblical marriages. The Good, The Bad and The Godly presents a study of the more notable marriages recorded in the Bible. Instead of expounding on a topic of the authors' choosing, this book seeks to explore the principles revealed in these marriages. Some marriages face similar issues yet the way they dealt with those issues was very different. These Biblical marriages are real life examples for our own marriages. William A. Hogan is a native of Florida. He received his Doctor of Ministry degree from Luther Rice Seminary. After serving honorably for the United States Marine Corp, he became an intern architect. He has served in several pastoral staff positions. He is a former member of the Florida Association of Christian Counselors and Therapists, and the American Association of Christian Counselors.
