In the process, he reveals:The science behind many of our decision-making habitsHow our small choices shape the kind of people we becomePractical steps we can employ to combat decision fatigueHow to develop the ability to diminish the role of emotions in decision-makingAre you ready to choose who you will become and live the life you really want to live?

Par John Bevere. 2024
It takes courage to live out your faith boldly, especially in the face of hostility or suffering. What gave Joshua…
and Caleb the courage to follow God's commands despite fear? What gave Esther the courage to risk her life and trust God's plan for His people? What gave the disciples the courage to live out their faith, even to the point of being martyred? They leaned into a greater fear, one that conquers all others—the fear of the Lord.The fear of the Lord gives believers the power to live with uncompromising faith—a powerful reality we see played out in the pages of the Bible as well as in our lives today. In Everyday Courage, respected Bible teacher, speaker, and bestselling author John Bevere reminds us through Scripture, devotions, and examples from the fathers and mothers of the faith that we, too can live with courage because the fear of the Lord swallows up every other fear in our lives.Each entry offers:A Bible passage to help you discover how to fear God—and why the fear of the Lord is your ultimate source of strengthA thoughtful reflection on the day's ScriptureStories of biblical figures and other heroes of the faith who lived courageouslyA powerful prayer to seek courage every day As you rediscover the power of holy fear in your life, you will step bravely into courageous living and bolder faith—every single day.Author, speaker, and pastor's wife Donna Jones gives women a practical, biblical blueprint for making regret-free choices in the middle…

leur chance d’être heureux. Ce n’est pas non plus, comme si nous souhaitons que le pire arrive à nos enfants, comme un sortilège noir craché dans un chaudron. Il ne s’agit pas du tout de cela. Le fait est que la plupart d’entre nous avons été créés par nos parents au nom de l’amour. L’espoir en une vie meilleure que celle que chaque parent a vécue est ce qu’ils nourrissent pour nous : leurs petits bouts de chou. Le fait cependant est que, le meilleur que chaque parent pourrait donner en tant que parent satisfait rarement les demandes de chaque enfant. La vie est trop grande. La complexité même d’une seule vie humaine constitue un grand défi. Comment savons-nous réellement ce dont nos enfants ont besoin ou ce qu’ils désirent de nous ? Puisse ce petit livre vous rappeler les nombreux trésors de sagesse dont vous avez certainement entendu parler des parents, grands-parents, enseignants, frères et sœurs, ou ceux que vous avez découverts vous-mêmes.

mental illness...she really helps people tackle their own stuff. Her writing has helped me before and this will be another hit' Matt HaigTHE HOTLY ANTICIPATED FOLLOW-UP TO SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER*, MAD GIRLWhat if our notion of what makes us happy is the very thing that's making us so sad?Ten years on from first writing about her own experiences of mental illness, Bryony Gordon still receives messages about the effect it has on people.

Par Jack Hayford. 2001
Each of us has experienced bad days, and these bad days are often compounded by our focus on the "badness"…
of the situation. But Dr. Jack Hayford contends that," in such times the Lord calls us to hear His voice." And so, beginning with seven phrases uttered by Jesus on the cross, he constructs the model for godly behavior while enduring hardship. Insights include: Father, forgive them for they know not what they do. To forgive those seeking to injure you is to remove yourself from their control.My God, my God, why have you forsaken Me? We can ask God the hard questions.Into Your hands I commit My spirit. Surrender your suffering to God and let go.How to Live Through a Bad Day is ideal for anyone who has experienced stress, pain, weariness, or an assault of character. Jack Hayford speaks the words of Jesus -- the words of life that sustain and encourage us to live through our worst days.Patton: The Pursuit of Destiny (The Generals Series)

He was a harsh taskmaster who comforted dying soldiers and quietly commended their valor. A crusty, often foulmouthed commander who…
wrote tender letters home to the love of his life.Gen. George S. Patton Jr. comes to life in these pages as one of the most colorful, enigmatic, and unfairly maligned leaders in U.S. military history. Often caricatured—as in the big-screen biopic, Patton—the general was a complex blend of battle-tested strengths and nearly fatal personal flaws.Without varnishing over his shortcomings, Patton: The Pursuit of Destiny shatters myths and builds a compelling case for a deeper appreciation of the man who inspired unsurpassed loyalty and admiration from the soldiers who served under him.Destined for an outsized life, Patton parlayed his family’s deep military roots, his World War I experiences, his Olympic exploits, and his passion for freedom to become one of the linchpins of Allied victory in World War II.I Promise: How 5 Commitments Determine the Destiny of Your Marriage
