Life Under New Management


Book Description

Working for a perfectionist like strict, sexy-as-hell Ethan isn't easy. Falling in love with him? No problem at all. Taking a bar job in an exclusive hotel is a stopgap for Andy. He's an actor and his big break is coming soon—he knows it. His hot, new boss, Ethan, is strict, demanding and totally off-limits, but Andy can't stop thinking about him. When Andy learns of Ethan's need to be in control of his partner—in bed and out of it—he's stunned by the intensity of his reaction. He wants Ethan guiding him, bringing order to his chaotic life. And he sees that Ethan needs him too, though they can't be open about their feelings. Ethan deals out deliciously perverse consequences for misbehaving, but when it comes to incentives, he knows just what to offer to have Andy on his knees begging for more. But some secrets can't stay that way for long. And when difficult choices arise, for once Andy can't turn to Ethan for guidance. This time, he's on his own.

David Burkus has collected the stories of dozens of companies that are standing the old rules on their heads. Even better, Burkus shows how you can do it, too.”—Daniel H.

America, Under New Management


Book Description

Once upon a time in North America, an African American named Barack Hussein Obama became President of the United States of America. The very next day after his inauguration, over 100 white new Militia's were started; the tea party was launched, and Republican so called conservatives began plotting to remove the new President by any means necessary! This book offers a crash course no "pun" intended to understand the Republican Parties ideology, philosophy, aims, and purpose. After reading America Under new Management you will have a clear understanding of the "unclear" yet destructive pledge Republicans have planned for most of America. Contrary to conservative pundits and politicians, the sole ingredients to "world peace" do not consist of conservatism, capitalism, or selfishness. Rather, a balance of conservatism, liberalism, and true equality is the winning combination for America. Today Republicans have declared all out war on anything liberal! Their radical rhetoric and code names used for the President is validating the belief that racism is stronger then ever. Final thought Since America's beginning, many of her minorities haven't felt the American pride for obvious reasons. Ironically, for the first time in American history through the election of President Barack Obama, masses of minorities were overcome with new American pride. Many of us actually never thought this day would ever happen and Republicans/Tea Partiers are hell bent on making sure it never happens again!

Relovutionary


Book Description

“RELOVUTIONARY’ clearly demonstrates that Jonny King has something of value to say to the church in these days. I commend his book to you.” —Jeff Crosby, Publisher, InterVarsity Press/USA PHILOSOPHY FOR TRUE HUMAN FLOURISHING Each person without exception is desperate for flourishing. Every individual hungers and aches to live an expression of the good life. This compulsion inside is as automatic as it is intuitive. This general human longing reflects a common drive for meaning, and not just for the Christian. Still, most intimately know they can't entirely do life their way. Whilst the majority readily confess, they haven't the sufficient means, or even the necessary power. After all, look at what happens when a global pandemic shuts down life?! The fact we rarely arrive at contented satisfaction becomes life's own rolling stone. Do you have a present vision? Are you confident of the process? What about any worthwhile or ultimate goal? This living challenge becomes even more practically specific for the Christian. What if someone asked you for the content of a faithful and fruitful life for Christ? What would you say? Now factor in these challenging and confronting cultural times. How would you reply? After all, you sincerely love Jesus, and passionately want to live for Him, which means you're entirely motivated to offer something not only realistic, but true. But can you? The good news is that in your hands contain the opening lines, where RELOVUTIONARY intends to be your own personal guide. Volume One introduces this idea, setting the coordinates for the reader's unfolding navigation. The context is huge, only increasing any anticipation on this series' comprehensive value. This Is Your Life has been genuinely engineered for any curious reader wanting an answer to the absurdity of existence, and for every genuine follower of Jesus Christ, determined to live a life worthy of His calling. There is no greater promise or purpose than living for Jesus-no matter age, stage, time, or place-which means there should be no further reading delay. WELCOME TO THE LIFE: RELOVUXIONARY
