Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. A Journey: An Attempt (and Sometimes Struggle) at Being Real in This World is a story of a person's profoundly diverse and undeservedly blessed sixty-plus years of life on this planet. From growing up in the sixties and seventies, traveling as a young man in Europe and the Middle East (with a return trip to and fourteen-month stay in Israel), memoirs about military service, married and family life, work as a paramedic firefighter and as a nurse, wonderful opportunities to serve on medical teams to Kurdistan, Iraq; West Darfur, Sudan; and Banda Aceh, Indonesia; and everything in between. It really has been a blast. (Oh, and there was that little trip to Vietnam with Carol and our three kids when I was trying to make the case for our family living and working in Southeast Asia.) Through it all, good times and bad, smart decisions and some not so very clever, there has always been the undeniable realization that the Creator of the Universe, the Lord of heaven and earth, was right there with me and actually cared about the finest details of what was going on in my and my family's lives. Through it all, I have also come to believe that this same Chief Architect of the cosmos who cares about me and my family also truly cares about you and the finest, most intimate details of your life. He loves you. It's crazy, but it's true. Although the roads we have traveled are quite different, I was very motivated to write A Journey after reading Blue Like Jazz by Donald Miller. Hope you enjoy the trip. Christian memoirs books, books about faith and service, travel memoirs books, books about finding God, inspirational memoirs books, and real life journey books, all of these themes are woven throughout this honest and heartfelt story.…

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Hope is not a strategy is a clich proclaimed time after time in business, economics, schools, and communities, but we want to argue with that. Hope is a strategy and, in some situations, the only strategy available and often relegated as the last strategy. Randy Dobbs has been the CEO of multiple billion-dollar companies. Dr. Richard K. Nongard has been a successful psychotherapist and leadership development expert. Both have given popular TEDx talks. Professionally, and personally, they have used hope as a winning strategy and claimed victory in situations where defeat seemed certain. Together they share how hope transformed their business, leadership, and families and give the recipes for success you can bring to your own life situations.This book is not a theory book. It is not a philosophical book. It is about the power of real hope to change lives in multiple settings. We have a hope for you, that in your business, in your leadership, and in your real-world, you will discover hope is a winning strategy. It has been for us. We wrote this book as an inspiration and we wrote this book as a practical guide. Take the ideas and live them each day, in your family, your business, your community and in the world. One thing needed the most across many tough fronts in the world today is more truly instilled hope. This can, and will be possible, if our religious leaders, government leaders, business leaders, families and individuals from all walks of life truly embrace the Business of Hope As you will find within the pages of this book, hope is about right now and right now action. Enjoy your journey.…
