Everything you need to know about creating REST API's to get real work done. No gatekeeping. No jargon. Mercifully short. Is this you? "I can't finish a single REST tutorial without wanting to flip a desk!" You don't need to become the world's leading expert on HTTP, you just need to learn how to make APIs that other developers will understand. But every time you try, the tutorials make you feel like you're not smart enough to work as a developer. They make you feel like a fraud! They might as well be written in a language from half way around the world. And worst of all, some people will put you down and ignore your questions simply for having the nerve to ask them. You are not a fraud, you're just using bad tutorials. First you were scared to learn REST because it seemed like there was SO MUCH to learn. What is an RFC, anyway? Who is Roy Fielding, and why does that matter? What's a mime type? What am I going to have to know before this will make sense? But everyone says REST is simple, so you set your fear aside and face the challenge. You start one tutorial, and another, and another, but the unexplained jargon is enough to drive even Mr. Rogers into a sweater-ripping, trolley-kicking, shoe-throwing rage! They start talking about nouns and verbs and you're left wondering what 3rd grade reading class has to do with making APIs. Either you gave up completely, or you gave up trying to learn the academics and best practices and did the best you could by feeling around in the dark. That experience could be helpful in deciphering one of those tutorials you hated, but do you really want to go back to that dark place? There has to be a better way. And there is. REST Assured skips the academic "you have to learn every detail!" approach and teaches the vocabulary in simple terms. Learn only what you need to know to make functional, secure REST APIs. And best of all, you can learn it all in just a couple of hours. Master the vocabulary with simple explanations. Get to work today: Fundamentals first, clearly, and succinctly. Everything you need to know about securing APIs. Packed with best practices learned from more than a decade of experience. It's mercifully short! Just because it's a book doesn't mean it should take a week to read.

“Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest” (Matt. 11:28 Women are overcommitted, overconnected, overburdened, and overwhelmed. Their lives are full, but oddly, their souls are empty. They are aching for a bold challenge—one that will bring rest to their longing souls. Rest Assured is for the daring women who truly want to disrupt their current patterns and see lasting change. Divided into two parts, Rest Assured offers not just an intervention: The Badge of Busyness The Exhausting Pursuit of Happiness Tethered Souls Worried Sick But also a recovery plan: Prioritize the One Thing Needed: Time for God Create Room to Breathe: Time for Solitude Give Yourself a Break: Time for Leisure Pay It Forward: Time for Others If the soul is weary, it’s time for an intervention. Rest Assured is not a quick fix, but rather a bold challenge that aids women in identifying the negative patterns that prevent them from experiencing rest in their souls. Most importantly, it will give them the tools needed to break the cycle.

From the first page of history, God has been teaching us about rest. Twenty-first-century Americans often approach Genesis as a science manual. How did it all happen? But the ancient Israelites were concerned with different questions—questions of purpose . . . who and why. Bible study teacher and lifelong student Rachel Booth Smith helps us focus on the who of Creation so that we can find meaning and rest for our souls. God set up a perfect home for us full of provision, significance, and purpose. In Rest Assured, Rachel becomes a holy eavesdropper, leaning over ancient Israelites’ shoulders, listening as God reveals Himself to Israel. As we anchor ourselves in His character, we find a rest that grounds us when we’re faced with the daily crises of life, big and small. Do you feel heavy or anxious? Work, kids, finances, the future, the past, the state of the world can all threaten your joy, hope, and trust. Using archaeology findings, language discoveries, and biblical study, Smith shares theologically rich insights that bring us into the rest we need, the rest we crave—the rest for which we were made. A life of rest changes everything. This book is for all who desire to have a life of flourishing, rooted in sacred trust and rest.

[Order Now!] This 312 page hardbound volume contains the wit and wisdom of over twenty years of experience from Christian Life Ministries and Bill Ewing's influence as a biblical counselor. "It's just unbelievable," said Todd Hillard, one of the book's collaborative writers. "Even after the truck pulled up and we started opening boxes, my heart still didn't believe it was there. We've already processed and mailed out more than 1650 books and I'm still not convinced it's happening." Bill Ewing, the author, is just relieved that the principles contained in the book can now be widely distributed. "We've been counseling tired, discouraged and broken people one-on-one for decades. Now we have a vehicle to reach thousands with this message of hope and healing. Every time we do a conference or speak at a church we are always asked, 'Why don't you have a book?' Now we do. Now the message can spread."
