The Wisdom Codes


Book Description

The cutting edge of neurolinguistics meets the spiritual wisdom of the ages in a handbook of key words that literally rewire our brains. New discoveries in biology and the neurosciences are revealing how the structure of language-the words we think and speak-can actually change the way the neurons in our brains and hearts connect. But our ancestors understood this connection intuitively, thousands of years ago. They created specific word-patterns to provide comfort, healing, strength, and inner power in difficult times, and they encoded these powerful words in prayers, chants, mantras, hymns, and sacred writings to preserve them for future generations. Now beloved teacher and thought leader Gregg Braden cracks the code and puts these powerful words in your hands. Perfect as a pocket guide, a reference for spiritual study, or a gift to someone you love, this elegant, compact book contains Wisdom Codes that cut to the core of life's greatest tests, most challenging demands, and hardest lessons. You'll find chapters devoted to healing from loss and grief, facing your unspoken fears, finding certainty in the face of uncertain choices, and finding forgiveness, as well as ancient parables that offer a "fast track" to unraveling life's deepest mysteries. Each Wisdom Code-distilled from a quote, a scripture passage, or a parable-is accompanied by a brief discussion of what the code means, why it's important, and how to apply it in your life.

John Wesley's Teachings, Volume 3


Book Description

John Wesley’s Teachings is the first systematic exposition of John Wesley's theology that is also faithful to Wesley's own writings. Wesley was a prolific writer and commentator on Scripture—his collected works fill eighteen volumes—and yet it is commonly held that he was not systematic or consistent in his theology and teachings. On the contrary, Thomas C. Oden demonstrates that Wesley displayed a remarkable degree of internal consistency over sixty years of preaching and ministry. This series of 4 volumes is a text-by-text guide to John Wesley’s teaching. It introduces Wesley’s thought on the basic tenets of Christian teaching: God, providence, and man (volume 1), Christ and salvation (volume 2), the practice of pastoral care (volume 3), and issues of ethics and society (volume 4). In everyday modern English, Oden clarifies Wesley’s explicit intent and communicates his meaning clearly to a contemporary audience. Both lay and professional readers will find this series useful for devotional reading, moral reflection, sermon preparation, and for referencing Wesley’s opinions on a broad range of pressing issues of contemporary society.

Her grandmother tells her, “Sky, I believe our ancestors have gone before us to show us the path and help us along the way. Will Rogers was the most famous Cherokee of his time and arguably the most famous Cherokee of any time. I think his words and his example had a lot to say then just like they do now.” Join Sky on her journey as she faces the disappointment of a canceled softball season, the challenge of becoming a pitcher on the all-male baseball team, and the uproar it raised by going against the norm. Through her determination, poise, and athletic ability, Sky changes the minds of the many who oppose her. Enjoy the baseball-centered storyline, Will Rogers’ favorite sport, as you are inspired by the wit, wisdom, and timeless impact of Will Rogers.




Brilliant Manoeuvres


Book Description

* Essential reading for those in senior positions in business * All military concepts are fully explained with diagrams, historical examples, or personal anecdotes, and then translated into terms and tools that can be used in business * Includes business and military examples, personal anecdotes, and real-life experiences of the author, in both business and military settings Brilliant Manoeuvres - How to Use Military Wisdom to Win Business Battles is for executives and entrepreneurs who are looking to create and sustain competitive advantage and to lead their teams in the face of determined competition and rivalry. Based on the author's experience as a business consultant and entrepreneur, business executives and entrepreneurs like to see themselves as modern day warriors and generals, fighting off competitors and conquering new markets. They talk about attacking competitors, defending turf, firing warning shots, establishing beachheads, bypassing the competition, digging a protective moat, and so on. Martin starts by explaining how and why military leaders and planners actually think and operate the way they do. He translates this into terms that business people can readily apply to their own reality so they can survive and thrive. In other words, this book is a practical guidebook, and not just another set of exhortations to "lead from the front" or to "win without fighting." The book includes ten chapters, and each will incorporate historical examples and personal experiences from the author's military and consulting careers, as well as historical and contemporary business illustrations to show how these concepts apply to business. It will also include practical exercises and tools that the business leader and entrepreneur can use to seize and maintain the initiative against competitors, avoid obstacles and entrenched opposition, and defend competitive advantages against attacks and incursions. Other concepts to be covered include mass and economy of effort, intelligence, cohesion and morale, friction and uncertainty, and of course, leadership and inspiration.
