Levi Dalton is disappointed. He'd had high hopes for this visit from Uncle Matthew's old cavalry friend, Mr. Jones. Even though Mr. Jones brought along his wife, children, and a sister-in-law, surely he would have time to reminisce with Uncle Matthew about their time in the war. Then Levi would get to hear the kinds of exciting stories his father used to tell.
But Levi's little cousins and the Jones children keep causing mischievous problems, not to mention the trouble Levi's new dog gets into. It seems like Uncle Matthew and their guests will spend the whole visit cleaning up messes, rescuing ruined meals, and disciplining children. Will Levi ever get to hear the stories of glory he's been craving? Find out in this short story follow-up to One Bad Apple.
When a wagon train of Black pioneers rescues the seven orphaned Dalton cousins from the side of the trail, it seems like an answer to their prayers. As they roll west toward Kansas, fourteen-year-old Levi Dalton is dazzled by the beautiful Mrs. Mallone. She's a healer, and her knowledge of medicines and herbs inspires Levi to want to become a doctor. Maybe then he can stop people from dying of fevers and illnesses like his folks did.
But Mrs. Mallone's stepdaughter, Hopeful, warns Levi not to become too attached to the healer. Levi dismisses her warnings and his own misgivings until the day he sees something dreadful. Levi knows he needs to tell someone what he's seen before it's too late. But will anyone believe the story of a fourteen-year-old orphan? Will anyone stand up to evil, no matter how beautifully it's packaged?
"Fifty dollars just for asking a few questions? Jedediah Jones figures it must be his lucky day. What dancing and doughnuts have to do with anything, he neither knows nor cares. He’s only interested in earning that money so he can finally eat something other than the apples he's been living off for days. Once his stomach and his pockets are filled again, he plans to move on.
But answering the advertisement plunges him into a forest of painted trees, twelve pretty sisters, trouble, and more trouble. And, yes, doughnuts. So many doughnuts. Can Jedediah Jones solve the mystery and earn that fifty dollars when the whole town has failed? Or will the twelve sisters lose their family's business no matter what he does?"

In the midst of tall castles, warring pikemen, dreadful plagues, church decay, and the superstition and darkness of sixteenth-century Europe, the Anabaptist revival burst into flames. One of the first leaders was a partying university dropout who met Christ and was transformed into a fiery preacher, confronting and challenging the greatest reformers of the day. He became co-founder of the Anabaptist movement, which gave rise to the Amish and Mennonites. Excellent for supplemental reading in a Christian history course!
The self-help industry is a fraud. You are not exceptional. You can’t have it all. The money won’t follow just because you do what you love. Anyone who tells you something different is lying.
Too many people are helpless today because they don’t know why they need help. They flock to self-help gurus because they don’t know any better.
Sam LaCrosse’s approach to living a rich and fulfilling life does not involve cookie-cutter slogans or self-esteem dogma. The path to a good life lies in discovering and honoring your own core values.
In Value Economics: The Study of Identity, Sam cuts through all the BS and shows you the way forward with kick-ass lessons from personal anecdotes, popular culture, history, current events, and sound economic theory. Forget self-help. Ignore the feel-good experts. This book will lead you to true self-discovery.
Every person on the face of the planet is hardwired from the factory of heaven with dreams, hopes, gifts, and callings to accomplish God's purpose and destiny. We are birthed with a wide-eyed, childlike wonder and expectancy that we are involved in something much larger than ourselves. As a child, something in our hearts knew that there was a purpose and destiny to be discovered and released. Back then, life was an adventure. We looked around every corner for the next exciting thing. As adults, life evolves into a series of calculated risks. The adventure is removed and the expectation dies. We were created for adventure, to be daring, bold, fabulous and remarkable. We were destined to reflect the unique expression of God Almighty! However, life has a way of short-circuiting that original wiring. It seems the older we get, the less dreaming we do. We grow up but in the wrong way. Over time our mind takes over and our heart and spirit dies. The result: We are alive but not really living. You will discover in the pages of this book that nothing in your heart has stunned God or caught him off guard. Nothing in your past, present or your future has deterred God's plan and purpose for you. Your God given destiny can be found in one place.....The Original Sanctuary - your heart.
What if we could step out of the culture of blame and victimhood into a reality that gave us freedom and agency to pursue our dreams? What if there was a way out of the isolation and polarization that so many of us find ourselves in, toward authentic connections with others, across all divisions and borders? What if we lived in a world that revolved around quality of life, rather than economic winners and losers?
In Person to Person, Joeri Torfs and Pim Ampe describe this world and chart a clear path toward it. Grounded in research and rooted in reality, the world they describe is neither a utopia nor a fantasy. Person to Person presents an environment that incentivizes goodness, fairness, sustainability, and freedom. It begins with the individual and moves toward our collaborative relationships. Finally, Person to Person proposes a financial environment that would enable this Quality of Life world to flourish—one that is already underway.
Alongside the book’s theory, we meet Jake, Leon, Lana, and Alex: four fictional college students who illustrate the Person to Person concepts as they interact in their dorm rooms and on campus. Their narratives remind readers that all of us—in spite of our pitfalls, in view of our potential—have the power to make a better world that is richly satisfying, deeply connected, and truly free.
Do you feel like your work and your personal life are pulling you in opposite directions? Like the more you’re there for one, the less you’re there for the other?
After his family was torn apart—twice—former journalist Mark Briggs launched a full-scale investigation into work-life balance. What he discovered was a surprising framework of small, simple changes that can send powerful ripple effects throughout your life—both at work and at home.
In researching The Butterfly Impact, Mark interviewed over one hundred people at the prime of their careers—including industry leaders at Starbucks, Facebook, Google, Amazon, REI, The Gates Foundation, Good Morning America, and Gonzaga University's legendary basketball team.
Here, you’ll read their relatable stories of resilience, grit, and triumph. Each chapter also includes practical activities to help you develop your own balance, excelling in your career while thriving in your personal life.
If you’re ready to show up fully at work and be fully present at home for what matters most, The Butterfly Impact is for you.
At the dawn of civilization, a wolf dog befriends an old hunter and revives his alpha powers among his human tribe. Together with the animal’s pack, they discover a new way of life—a shared odyssey of survival and trust that grows into the most successful partnership the Earth has ever known, changing dogs and humans forever.
The pack led by Oohma encounters the first humans they have ever seen—Ish the old hunter, Lut the gifted young medicine woman and Hun the brutal tribe leader whose jealousy forces him out of the tribe.
This is the poetic story of how civilization progresses all because of the abilities the dogs bring the tribe. Set against the ancient Chauvet Cave in France with its remarkable cave art and the footprints of a small boy and his dog as they walk together side by side as companions not prey.
How does the greatest love story in history begin? With a leap into the unknown, as told in First Dog on Earth.
