Finishing Well

As a young man, Winston Churchill was a poor student with a speech impediment, who twice flunked the military academy’s entrance exams before finally getting in. Yet, Churchill is credited with being eloquent and uncompromising in leading Great Britain through the darkest hours of World War II. Due to the stunning dominance of Microsoft software in the 1980s and ‘90s,…

Focus
$24.99
Human sight is a marvel of complex engineering. Two biological sensors capture light bounced off objects, pass it through lenses made of living cells and project it onto a specially designed receptor system turning each image into neural impulses. These twin electrical codes are then sent to the brain which translates them into color, depth, clarity, contrast, texture, size, distance…

Forgiveness
$24.99
There are times when our wounds, hurts, and raw nerves set us on edge to lash out at the least provocation or complaint. While we are created in God’s image to be knit together in peace and love, it seems our most natural tendency is to hate as we battle over pride, pleasure, possessions, and plots of land. * You…

Explore the ways humility is a catalyst for delegation, empowerment, and teamwork. Humility is a matter of perspective. We choose to be self-centered or God-centered.

Manners
$24.99
At our very core, we are self-obsessed creatures with rough edges and self-serving dispositions. Left to our own devices, we would happily hide within large protective shells of broken glass and sandpaper, rasping all foolish enough to cross our path. Consider how our personalities change while in our cars. Safely encased within a ton of steel and glass, windows up,…

Respect
$24.99
Lack of Respect is the overheating of society’s engine; a major cause of defiance, depression, divorce and discrimination; a festering wound for self-worth; a hair-trigger for anger and violence. Lack of Respect pushes marriages to decay; breaks down the bond between parents and children; encourages the disenfranchised to clump into antisocial gangs; leads nations to march toward war. * You…

Stewardship
$24.99
Learn how Godly stewardship requires consistent attention. Stewardship is a state of mind that we express through our actions. Stewardship is a developed characteristic. Like our muscles, we must exercise it so it is available when needed. If it is not used, it becomes weak. When used improperly, it can cause injury and pain. * You are purchasing a downloadable…

Stress
$24.99
Learn how faith in Christ reduces stress in life. In many ways, the ongoing abrasion of stress is far worse than any single hazard we face. Stress within a business impacts the bottom line.

Trust

Volkswagen was a respected supplier of vehicles to Americans for decades. Selling over 10 million vehicles worldwide in 2014, with profits exceeding $12 billion (a 19.6% increase over 2013), their creditability was perhaps at an all-time high. In September 2015, Michael Horn, the CEO and president of Volkswagen Group of America, acknowledged to their North American customers, employees, dealers and…

Truth
$24.99
Something often defined in ways to justify our actions. Frequently withheld, obscured or wielded like a weapon. Why do we even think, we can take Truth which is eternal and unshakeable, and with intense emotion, self-delusion or manipulation, bend it to provide cover for our questionable behavior? At our deepest core, we realize the foolishness of our claims. Though we…
