After a short stopover in Managua, the Continental Airlines leased plane crashed into a mountainside near the Honduran capital. The author is one of fifteen survivors among the 146 people on board including thirteen North Americans.

The author's journey to understand the trauma and heal from it are the central thrust of the book with particular emphasis on the impact of trauma, the author's struggles to understand his inner conflicts and to eventually overcome them through the process of documenting his experience.

Paperback. Condizione: Good. The quest for meaning. Our lifelong journey begins the moment we take our first breath. From history to science, from psychology to literature, from joy to true meaning, The Challenge dramatically demonstrates why the Bible is the ultimate quest quencher, the most unique, influential and intellectually compelling book ever written. The Challenge will encourage your soul, stimulate your intellect and change the way you view the Bible forever. The Bible is one mighty representative of the whole spiritual life of humanity. - Helen Keller We account the Scriptures of God to be the most sublime philosophy. I find more sure marks of authenticity in the Bible than in any profane history whatsoever. - Isaac Newton I decided a long time ago that it was less difficult to believe that the Bible was what it claimed to be than to disbelieve it. - Abraham Lincoln Bible fever - catch it. - the author.…

Paperback. Condizione: Fair. Unlock the key to building successful businesses in challenging international markets. Why do so many investors fail in frontier and emerging markets? How can entrepreneurs increase their odds of success in developing economies? In The Culture Key, Curt Laird explores the idea that entrepreneurs and investors in these markets struggle not because they lack business acumen, but because they do not develop intercultural intelligence. Laird is a seasoned entrepreneur who has worked in over 30 countries and built successful businesses in Afghanistan - including a billion dollar mobile phone company. In this book, he unpacks the underlying cultural principles that govern business in these geographies and offers a roadmap forward. The book introduces the Belief Tool - a lens to identify, interpret, and respond to the cultures in new markets. If you can decode the dominant worldviews, cultural dimensions, and mindsets that shape people's behavior, you can navigate cultural minefields with confidence - whether you're determining where to invest, negotiating a critical deal, or building a high-performance team. Laird also digs deep into common cross-cultural challenges, providing frameworks that Western business leaders can use to inform the way they deal with customers, employees, clients, and other stakeholders in frontier markets. Combining on-the-ground stories with actionable insights, The Culture Key is a must-read for anyone who wants to find, build, and manage thriving businesses around the world.…

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. What the book is about: This autobiography of Rev. Curt's spiritual journey offers a commentary on why much of the theology and current practices of the Christian Faith are no longer viable for the 21st century Christian. His historical insights, reviews of the Aramaic and Greek texts, and metaphorical views are based on his life-long study of the Christian scriptures. Today's Christians have accepted advancements in many areas, including science, technology and medicine, but would not want to be treated medically by a doctor of antiquity or give up their computer and smart phone for the quill and parchment. The only exception has been in religion. Many Christians still want to honor the ethics, dogmas and rituals of an antiquated idea of God. Such antiquated theology sometimes creates a faith of exclusivity that forgets the basic teaching of Jesus to love one another. Curt brings to this discussion the universal principle of Divine Love that is found in all the religious traditions. All humanity, everything in the universe was created in God's love regardless of race, color, gender, or creed. We all share the same DNA, and while all traditions honor the one God, there are many paths to that Divine Love. For Rev. Curt, the simple fundamental truth of the Christian faith for the 21st century is found in Micah 6:8, What does the Lord require of you? To serve justice, love mercy and walk humbly with your God.…

Paperback. Condizione: Good. Golf hero Ben Hogan bore a mystique that still captivates golfers: a silent, almost eerie concentration that intimidated his opponents, a presence any politician or actor would envy, and an ability to hit a ball so squarely it sizzled as it left his club. Hogan won four US Opens in six years, three after a near-fatal automobile accident. His injuries limited him to six tournaments in 1953, but he won five. It was arguably the greatest year ever in the history of professional golf. But in the midst of the acclaim, myth distorted and obscured Ben Hogan. No one knew what drove him to practice until his hands bled, or what private demons built the high walls that surrounded him. Here at last is the Hogan no reader has ever encountered. Sampson draws on interviews with fellow golf legends Byron Nelson, Jack Nicklaus, and Sam Snead to present an in-depth portrait of a man with bullet-proof confidence and single-mindedness, a man who turned the negatives he encountered into a life of glory and achievement. From the poverty of his youth and the suicide of his father to the failure and conflict that stalked him into middle age, Hogan traces an unforgettable portrait of an amazing man.…
