Hello, My Name Is Life


Book Description

If you were to write a list of words that would describe your ideal life, would it contain many houses, luxury vacations, or just being true to yourself? Welcome to the idyllic, privileged and dramatic world of Austin Nelson. Hello, My Name Is LIFE is the engaging personal memoir of a very lively young man finding his place in the world, one dramatic event at a time. From the moment you begin reading, Hello, My Name Is LIFE feels like a personal note from Nelson, lending a sense of familiarity and friendship between author and reader. Apart from Beach Houses and smart cars, Nelson makes it a point to keep it real by sharing his family's struggles through rehab and bipolar disorder, all the while keeping the faith in God. Entertaining, bubbly and at times sad, Nelson successfully presents his world and his own observations on the fragile human psychology and the special relationships that children have with their parents; and at the same time, echoes the sentiments of all the young people in this world in search for purpose and meaning. Life is something everyone goes through. Some seem to have an easy, glamorous life while others always seem to struggle. From the outside, life might look amazing, but no one really knows the inside story until it's told.




Hello, My Name Is


Book Description

The world goes out of its way to make you believe you are not good enough. Maybe you aren't sure you like where you've been, or who you've become. Maybe someone has made you believe a lie about who you are by speaking damaging words to you. The discovery of our true identities does not begin by looking within ourselves, but by looking to the One who made us. Hello, My Name Is will inspire you to not wear the nametag that someone else gave you, but to wear the name of who God says you are. Your name may be "Lonely" . . . He calls you Friend. Your name may be "Failure" . . . He calls you Redeemed. Your name may be "Broken" . . . He calls you Beloved. It is time to tear off the false nametags that cover up your true identity. Understanding who you are begins with knowing Whose you are so you can embrace your destiny as a child of the one true King. "Hello, My Name Is will silence the lies of the enemy so you can hear God whisper, 'You are mine. You are wanted. You are so incredibly loved.'" -- Lysa Terkeurst, New York Times best-selling author and president of Proverbs 31 Ministries "Hello, My Name Is gets to the heart of an issue that haunts the homeless and the hero, the kid and the king, the disabled and the diva -- our identity." -- Randy Frazee, Senior Minister at Oak Hills Church, author of The Heart of the Story "Matthew West brings the rare combination of songwriter an pastor to his ministry. He is a modern-day King David, creating Psalms that touch the heart of God and God's children. Now, as an added blessing to us all, he has compiled his thoughts into a book. A person can almost hear Matthew sing through the pages. I'm deeply grateful for this work, this singer, this friend." -- Max Lucado, New York Times best-selling author "Matthew West has always written honestly in his songs and stories. In his latest book, Hello, My Name Is, Matthew may offer his greatest truth yet: how to discover our God-given identity while building a closer relationship with our Lord. I gained a lot of insight while reading this book, and I know you will as well." -- Scotty McCreery, ACM, BMI, and CMT award-winning country music entertainer and author of Go Big or Go Home: The Journey Toward the Dream

Hello, My Name Is Love


Book Description

Hello, I know we've met before, at least momentarily a time or two since you were conceived. Recently I've heard you've mistaken others to be me. I wouldn't typically be bothered by that, as I don't force myself upon anyone who doesn't want to befriend me. The reality is I am keenly aware of the truth that without me you are nothing. I'm not being arrogant when I state this fact. I'm just being loving. I always tell the truth. Missing me or mistaking others to be me may be the gravest mistake anyone could ever make. If anyone on earth finds me, befriends me, understands me, and emulates me, they will find the ultimate peace, hope, joy, purpose, euphoria, power, fulfillment, meaning and satisfaction. These are the things for which the world and all that is within her have longed. So, I had to write this autobiography to reintroduce my TRUE self to all the people of the world, the ones I live for, the ones who have grown grievously estranged from me, and the ones I love. Forever Yours, Love

In this entertaining and engaging book, ace naming consultant Alexandra Watkins explains how anyone—even noncreative types—can create memorable and buzz-worthy brand names. No degree in linguistics required. The heart of the book is Watkins's proven SMILE and SCRATCH Test—two acronyms for what makes or breaks a name.

And you'll see dozens of examples—the good, the bad, and the “so bad she gave them an award.” Alexandra Watkins is not afraid to name names.

He conveys a message that everything truly happens for a reason and there are always lessons to be learned.
