Book Description
The late teenage years are times to experiment, to flirt with chance-taking and laugh at near-misses. Jason and Brian are invincible, with miles to go before they sleep, and their good times are bacchanalian. This Friday afternoon is no exception: Jason, ignoring the fact that he is on the brink of failure, leaves school early again to begin the party. He and Brian drink into the afternoon; the warning of blue lights is not enough to end the hilarity, and as lucidity morphs to black-out, Brian must make a decision between carnal desire and adult responsibility. His sodden mind is in no condition to deliberate, and the night turns tragic. Having now to deal with the reality of prison, the loathing of a community, the screaming of his demons and the battle with his conscience, Brian is forced into very serious self-analysis, while Jason uses his best friend's plight as a justification to continue his own insane drinking behavior which could, ultimately, lead to his need to find a bottom. Written by a recovering alcoholic, this fictitious story contains would-be scenarios relevant to all mature readers, for there are few degrees of separation between it, and you.

Book Description
"How many times have you felt God is trying to speak to you and yet you feel like you're hearing nothing? Who hasn't asked, "God, can't you talk louder? I just want to know what to do!" The reality is that all of God's sheep, in every denomination, already hear God's voice - every day!" "Steve Shultz uncovers the many Scriptures "hidden in plain sight," as he likes to say. These clear, yet often forgotten passages contain easy answers to the questions you've asked, or wish you could ask, about hearing God's voice." "Learn how you can tune in to what God has to say personally to you! You don't even have to believe in prophecy. It's not the term "prophecy" that's the problem, but how it's defined."--Back cover.

Book Description
"A timely, practical resource on creating teams and organizations where everyone has the opportunity to succeed." --Adam Grant, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Think Again and host of the podcast WorkLife A step-by-step guide for managers, teams, and DEI leaders looking to create impactful, lasting change in their organization, from recruitment to retention, and beyond. Are you tired of hollow promises about diversity, equity, and inclusion in your organization? Do you want to take steps towards real change – beyond issuing mission statements, signing checks, and holding listening sessions – but don’t know where to start? This book is your answer. Designed for teams to read together, Actions Speak Louder offers a comprehensive blueprint for leaders and teams who are ready to get out of their own way, look at their surroundings with new eyes, and turn their energy into a concrete plan. Renowned DEI consultant Deanna Singh has led diversity trainings for a wide range of organizations, from non-profits to Fortune 500 companies. Using narratives, case studies, and the latest DEI research, as well as interactive exercises, Singh will teach you how to: • Write inclusive job advertisements because “minorities just don’t apply here” isn’t an excuse – you’re just not reaching them • Design an interview process that reduces status quo bias and challenges hiring decisions that are simply “no brainers” • Create a retention plan that considers and prioritizes the needs of underrepresented employees – if you haven’t intentionally designed one to be inclusive, you’ve unintentionally reinforced one that is exclusive. • Lead inclusive meetings – the bedrock of company culture – by practicing constructive dissent and elevating underrepresented perspectives As Singh has seen time and time again, any organization can meaningfully change – you just need the right tools.

Book Description
In this riveting, thought-provoking collection of short stories, young author Li Lei shows how the devil, far from being the menacing beast portrayed in mythology, manifests and speaks to us through the mundane and ordinary, the innocent and beautiful, and through human flaws that speak to our deepest vulnerabilities. Presenting a broad spectrum of stories ranging from the seemingly innocuous scene of children playing in the park, to the painful transformation of a human into a phoenix, to the wrinkles that trace the devil's mortality, The Devil Speaks illuminates the relationship between the wicked and the vulnerable--the devil and the human--in a way that is at once blisteringly surreal and deeply human.
