When KATHY DUGAN dies during a bank robbery, she wakes up at the Pearly Gates. There, GIDEON, an angel, asks her to reflect on her past life. Her childhood is a tale of poverty and abuse by her parents and a stint in juvenile hall. But when she lands in the home of a rich doctor and his wife, things take an abrupt U-turn. Despite Kathy’s part in an attempted robbery at her new home, the doctor and his wife refuse to press charges. Her life takes another turn, this time for the better. She’s reunited with her sister and helps with funding for research for cerebral palsy and, after joining the Army, is wounded. Kathy may have gotten off to a bad start to begin with, but she has tried to live a life to help others. Will the good deeds she’s enacted be enough to convince Gideon to open the gates for Kathy to begin her eternal life?

The example set by this family is contagious and others will be encouraged to pattern their lives after their spiritual example. There have been struggles, not everything has gone smoothly and without turmoil for them. However, their family's foundation of trust and dependency on God, with the assurance that He does all things well, has helped turn their defeat into victory. The position of faith taken by this family will provide the stimulus to encourage others to seek God in the real world.

A woman’s field guide to the new frontier of professional development—working with other women Women-to-women relationships in the workplace are . . . complicated. When they’re good, they’re great. But when they’re bad, they can ruin your day, your week—even your year. Packed with proven advice from two of today’s leading experts in workplace relationships, this one-of-a-kind guide gives women the tools they need to navigate difficult situations unique to women-to-women relationships—whether with a boss, a colleague, a client, or an employee. Have you dealt with a woman in the workplace who: “Accidentally” excludes you from important meetings? Seems intent on taking you down professionally? Gossips about you with other coworkers? Makes you look bad by missing deadlines? Forms a “pack” of mean girls to make your life miserable? Mean Girls at Work isn’t just about surviving difficult situations. It’s about transforming a toxic relationship into one that benefits and supports both of you. This book is also for women who engage in mean behavior . . . but don’t know it. After all, who hasn’t gossiped about a female coworker? Who hasn’t rolled her eyes in the presence of a woman she doesn’t like? Who hasn’t scanned another woman head to toe—which is just a nonverbal way of saying, “You’ve just been judged”? The authors provide invaluable advice to the more subtle ways of being mean—even if they’re not intended. With a workforce composed of a higher percentage of women than ever, workplace dynamics have changed. Crowley and Elster cover every conceivable scenario, providing critical advice on how to rise above the fray and move forward professionally. Mean Girls at Work is your map to dodging the mines and moving forward in today’s transformed workplace. Praise for Mean Girls at Work “An invaluable suit of armor for surviving nine to five!” —Leil Lowndes, bestselling author of How to Talk to Anyone “If you think the emotional cruelty of comedies like Mean Girls and Heathers doesn’t exist in the real world workplace, think again. In Mean Girls at Work, Katherine Crowley and Kathi Elster valuably chronicle female vs. female predators and offer solid defensive strategies.” —Ann Kreamer, author of It’s Always Personal: Navigating Emotion in the New Workplace “Whether you are in your twenties and just starting your professional career, your midcareer forties, when you are supposed to have figured it out already, or a woman in her fifties or sixties who’s seen it all—this book is a must-read. . . . The authors have finally given women the tools and the sound advice necessary to deal with . . . conflicts that keep us all from succeeding. . . . Carry this book with you to work every day!” —Carolyn Cassin, President, Michigan Women’s Foundation “A must-read for women of all ages in today’s workforce. This book offers what we all need to develop the capacities to endure this ever-changing workplace. We know it is all about relationships and you need the skills outlined in this book to survive and thrive when the Mean Girls attack.” —Kim Harrington, Coordinator, Professional Development and Training, Office of Human Resources, California State University, Sacramento

Book Description
In spite of the relatively small number of people passing through its ranks, the Marine Corps produce a disproportionate share of this country’s leaders. It is because Marines are different from the rest of the population. They have a different mindset and handle problems in a different manner. Above & Beyond: Former Marines Conquer the Civilian World profiles 87 former Marines who took that attitude and successfully applied it to the civilian sector. As you read the stories collectively, you will see a camaraderie of many ethnicities, ages, and personalities—some you already know—that make up the U.S. Marine Corps. Read these pages and discover why Jim Lehrer of PBS NewsHour says “There has never been a better testimony to the value of service in the Marine Corps than Above & Beyond.”

This is my story of growing up in a small town in Nebraska, often looking at maps of northern Canada and dreaming of going there. Those dreams eventually came true, but first I had to undertake a journey from angry unbelief and rebellion to complete confidence and surrender to God, who gave me a purpose. The resulting saga took me from Tuktoyaktuk in the Northwest Territories, on the shore of the Arctic Ocean, to the jungles of South America. But the most exciting adventure has been my faith walk and really knowing what it’s like to have the hand of God on my shoulder protecting, directing, and correcting me. The journey continues.
