Описание:

Have you ever considered your life as a tapestry? God weaves a beautiful tapestry for all of our lives, so ask God to show you His plans in the weaving. I pray He will show you His thread of gold as He weaves beauty and dreams into your story.

God wants to heal our past by bringing beauty from ashes, using our experiences to help define our current realities with our own small beginnings. God redeems things in the past to weave new and beautiful things for your present and future. Using the visual of a tapestry, Sara will help you through guided prayer journaling to ask God to show you how He has woven healing and freedom through your life.

As you go through the book, may God open your ears to hear Him more clearly. May you stretch and grow all of your senses to know Jesus in greater ways as your Great Creator. Through this process of discovering more of God, He will receive more glory for His goodness.

With chapters like Walk Out on the Water: God is up to something in the detours and Hold It all Lightly: We are never finished, always in process, you will be inspired with the Scriptures, meditate with Psalms, and work on the reflections and action steps.

It all leads to one action that can be taken: changing your relationship with God. What is God telling you about your "something impossible" right now? Just start dreaming. You have permission from the God who gave you dreams to take the next step.

May this journal bless you. My prayer is that you will hear clearly from God as you meditate, reflect, and consider the answers to all your questions.

Описание:

Oneness of Heart isn't just the most effective operating mindset for any organization but a way of life. While organizations must always rethink strategies, adapt internal structures, and adjust traditional perspectives, the accelerating pace of global competition and technological advancements demand most focus on the central critical advantage of corporate value - their associates. The ultimate goal of any business is not providing the most value for anyone associated with a company but raising the most value in everyone associated with a company. No better example exists representing this concept than a small electronics contract manufacturing company called Quality Manufacturing Services, Inc. This book stands apart from other efforts through not just proposing principled theories but actual success of application. By concentrating every resource towards maximizing each individual's potential, growth and profit is the natural result. Focus brings first success to associates, your most important asset. By contrast, a Separation of Heart organization maintains individual power concentration and division, not growth of the whole team for customer benefit. Oneness of heart elevates increasing mutual value with each exchange developed during professional partnership growth.

While many business studies present theoretical approaches to corporate operations and optimization, this book presents practical real world advice and application in a conversational voice. Recommendations of what to do and what not to do are presented in the clearest possible terms for anyone to understand and apply regardless of business experience. Structured in two parts, the first section provides a biographical development of Quality Manufacturing Services along with the challenges, obstacles, learning opportunities, and their use to progress towards the existence of today's success. The second section provides principled direction necessary to pursue, achieve, and maintain a Oneness of Heart culture. Entrepreneurs just starting out and unaware of necessary first steps beyond the legal and mechanical requirements of starting a business will find valuable insight guiding the formation of a successful organization. Established business owners or leaders will also gain tremendous benefit to compare their own current perceptions and improvement opportunities falling short of Oneness of Heart. The proven experience of reality will challenge anyone thinking about or already launching their own organization.

Every organization understanding and applying the Oneness of Heart approach maintains three characteristics as unmoving foundations and one cannot exist without the other two: Mutual Respect, Humble Gratitude, and Disciplined Accountability. These features are joined through an unbroken, common thread of continuous learning improvement. When plans go as expected, the entire organization exerts enough control to identify, measure, and improve upon what was learned. When strategies fall short of intended goals, the team unites to identify what went wrong, how to fix the process, and prevent future reoccurrences. If associates do not respect one another, neither will customers respect your organization. Associates must maintain humble gratitude and exist in a state of unending appreciation for the value elevation attempt of the organization and customer. If associates do not maintain humble gratitude, your organization shuts down learning what customers define as their expectations. If you do not exist in state of constant reception to your customer's needs, they will find someone who does. Disciplined accountability is necessary to preserve your organization's trustworthiness and character.

Описание: Famously known as the text that Martin Luther King Jr. sought inspiration from in the days leading up to the Montgomery bus boycott, Howard Thurman's Jesus and the Disinherited helped shape the civil rights movement and changed our nation's history forever.

In this classic theological treatise, the acclaimed theologian and religious leader Howard Thurman (1900-1981) demonstrates how the gospel may be read as a manual of resistance for the poor and disenfranchised. Jesus is a partner in the pain of the oppressed and the example of His life offers a solution to ending the descent into moral nihilism. Hatred does not empower--it decays. Only through self-love and love of one another can God's justice prevail.

Описание: The classification of pituitary disease is becoming easier, and as targeted therapies are being developed, the role of the pathologist in determining accurate diagnoses is increasingly important. The surgical pathologist must therefore recognise the important role of morphologic analysis in classifying sellar pathology for the diagnosis and management of the pituitary patient. Highly illustrated.

Описание:

Two volumes of Colette's most beloved works, with a new Introduction by Judith Thurman.

Perhaps Colette's best-known work, Gigi is the story of a young girl being raised in a household more concerned with success and money than with the desires of the heart. But Gigi is uninterested in the dishonest society life she observes all around her and remains exasperatingly Gigi. The tale of Gigi's success in spite of her anxious family is Colette at her liveliest and most entertaining. Written during the same period as Gigi, Julie de Carneilhan, based on Colette's last years with her second husband, focuses on a contest of wills between Julie, an elegant woman of forty, and her ex-husband. Chance Acquaintances, a novella, involves an invalid wife, her philandering husband, and a music-hall dancer whose odd meeting at a French spa affects and indelibly marks each one of their lives.

Описание:

Teacher. Minister. Theologian. Writer. Mystic. Activist. No single label can capture the multiplicity of Howard Thurman's life, but his influence is written all over the most significant aspects of the Civil Rights movement. In 1936, he visited Mahatma Gandhi in India and subsequently brought Gandhi's concept of nonviolent resistance across the globe to the United States. Later, through his book Jesus and the Disinherited, he foresaw a theology of American liberation based on the life of Jesus as a dispossessed Jew under Roman rule.

Paul Harvey's biography of Thurman speaks to the manifold ways this mystic theologian and social activist sought to transform the world to better reflect "that which is God in us," despite growing up in the South during the ugliest years of Jim Crow. After founding one of the first intentionally interracial churches in the country--The Church for the Fellowship of All Peoples in San Francisco--he shifted into a mentorship role with Martin Luther King Jr. and other Civil Rights leaders. He advised them to incorporate more inward seeking and rest into their activism, while also thinking of their struggle for racial equality in a more cosmopolitan, universalist manner.

Few historical figures represent such diverse parts of the American religious tradition as Howard Thurman did. By telling the story of his religious lives, Paul Harvey gives the reader a window into many of the main currents of twentieth-century American religious expression.

Описание:

A New York Times Notable Book of 2007

Cleopatra's Nose is an exuberant gathering of essays and profiles, representing twenty years of Judith Thurman's writing, particularly her fascination with human vanity, femininity, and women's work--a term that, in her definition, encompasses haute couture, literature, and ruling empires. The subjects are varied--Cleopatra, Jackie Kennedy, Anne Frank; tofu, performance art, pornography--but as a whole these essays hint at the central preoccupations of a uniquely inquisitive mind.
