Book Description

"In the final volume of her trilogy on interlinked social issues, [the author] explores the troubled psyches of young people incarcerated in Juvenile Hall. The perspectives of psychiatrists, neuroscientists, and experts in the field of juvenile justice, combined with dramatic contributions elicited from the youths themselves, underscore the social and neurobiological impacts of childhood trauma. Ultimately, however, the message of 'Born, not raised' is hope-- that unnurtured youth, with all their dreams and deficits, can be reparented and rewoven into the social fabric."--Page 4 of cover.

Book Description

Leaders are Made Not Born, Second Edition, is a professional guide for developing and nurturing the right leadership skills in people. The author has drawn from his own extensive experiences in business and in the introduction, shares what inspired and motivated him to write this book. The book is now divided into three major sections: the first one is a large section divided into chapters on leadership skills that are short and to the point, with many thought-provoking questions and exercises that are meant to encourage independent thinking and application; the second section discusses the importance of people and emotional intelligence skills to improve performance and generate personal growth; and the third section is on coaching and mentoring. This Second Edition has come about largely in response to readers who wanted to learn more about emotional intelligence and the difference between coaching and mentoring. Perhaps more than those updates, the author has introduced his desire to make a difference in people's lives and challenges us to do the same.

Book Description

"Make Disciples." Jesus' command is clear. But what is a disciple? And how are we to "make" them? Based on decades of experience, this book explains and illustrates the process of disciple-making that Jesus taught and modeled. First published in 1974, its practical, biblical approach has revolutionized the ministry of hundreds of thousands of Christians as they learned how to multiply themselves in the lives of others. Disciple-making is challenging, to be sure. But as we are faithful to Christ's Great Commission, we'll experience the fulfillment that comes from being faithful to the life mission to which God has called us.

Book Description

America has a problem. Conservatives aren't helping their kids mature past that arrested development phase also known as liberalism! In this groundbreaking book, noted speaker Reb Bradley proves that societal pressures and foolish child-raising theories that have gone mainstream are preventing parents from developing in their kids the key ingredients of maturity, including self-control. Too many children are becoming adults who are ruled purely by magical thinking, passions, emotions and desires -- the hallmarks of the liberal mindset. It's up to parents to turn their baby Bolsheviks into good citizens by helping their kids mature past their infantile liberal stage. Reb Bradley shows how.
