Every day as you guide and nourish, you have new chances to get things right, to sow seeds of love, acceptance, appreciation, encouragement and confidence.Although the parent-child relationship is perhaps the most obvious example of care giving, opportunities for this type of support and guidance abound in everyday life. By taking time to reflect and consider our own childhoods, we may become better equipped to understand and relate to othersespecially childrenas they navigate their own unique challenges.This learning experience explores techniques and guidance for doing just this. The first chapter outlines four parenting stylesboth the strengths and weaknesses inherent to eachand considers how these natural tendencies can be leveraged and expanded to create an optimal child-rearing environment. By better understanding our own behaviors, we can achieve improved balance in our relationships with others.Next, through a comprehensive list of childrens common grievances, the author presents tactics that parents may use to identify sources of conflict, close these gaps and better relate to their children and their unique issues or needs. These skills are essential in parent-child relationships, but they may also be extended outward to create stronger interpersonal relationships more generally. Working through our own childhood struggles can help us relate to others with more impact and grace. To this end, a guided meditation leads us through a series of reflections in which the reader is invited to revisit his or her own childhood and to confront any difficulties encountered there. By learning to evoke to our inner child, we may become better equipped to relate to all children. The meditation also makes us more aware of how our caregivers influenced us, and how we in turn might influence others.Finally, we consider the components of a happy familyboth what it means, and what it takes to achieve. The final chapter provides suggestions and clear guidelines for fostering a healthy family life, referring back to the personality types outlined earlier in the manuscript in order to create a cohesive scope and approach. Ultimately, the author contends, we all have a responsibility for each other, and learning how to skillfully navigate this challenge can result in a brighter, deeper and more fulfilling life for everyone.

Bill Ciancio details many of his mountain top experiences during his five decades coaching. He hopes that the details of these experiences help motivate the reader to unlock the fantastic coach hiding inside you.Bill could have titled this book becoming your own coach, or developing your own coaching philosophy. But he felt the choice of Coaching Basketball: Unboxed Wisdom covered and goes beyond what both titles indicate. Wisdom denotes in-depth experiences over time. But his experiences are too numerous to capture in one book. And knowing that coaches like reading things as much as they like driving to the dentist on a crowded, backed-up freeway, he relates only the essentials of coaching. His intentions are to give the reader a few mountain top experiences churned with years of reflection and evaluation. Therefore, the word wisdom is part of the title.

Dr. Christopher Toote has written a master-preacher guide for pastors and teachers to learn how to outline a sermon, access a biblical text, understand multiple ways to interpret the Bible, and provide applicable meaning in today's world.

This work is drawn from a deep well of experience in Christian and secular higher education and a lifelong practice of biblical exposition. He's been on both sides of the pulpit- as preacher and parishioner. He has lived out the gospel on campus and preached and taught faithfully in congregations.This book reflects years of hard work from a student of God's word. He understands what it's like to work throughout the week and be responsible for the work of the word on a weekly basis. When I read preaching textbooks, I would rather read from those who prepare a new sermon regularly rather than a preacher who only speaks occasionally. Dr. Toote knows the weekly process of prayer, reflection, study, and delivery. He knows the experience of struggling through a Saturday night after a busy week with little time to prepare a message. He understands the demands of a congregation, and he has walked with people through life and death. These sermon outlines reflect his pastoral experience.In this three volume collection, he offers the student of God's word 150 teachable, ready-to-use outlines for teaching on relationships, personal discipleship, and trust in Jesus as Lord. He mines treasures from 36 books of the Bible and over 113 key passages and scripture readings from both the Old and New Testaments. Dr. Toote explains favorite passages clearly and pushes the reader to study unfamiliar passages carefully. His applications are personal, practical, and profound.Each volume covers a broad sweep of scripture and yet has distinctive themes that emerge. Volume one teaches us how to use the Bible to deepen and develop our relationship with the church, our families and our parents. The second volume deals with discipleship: how to grow personally in our walks with the Lord. The third volume focuses on Lordship: how to trust Jesus in all spheres of life.William D. Shiell, Ph.D. President Professor of Pastoral Theology and Preaching Northern Seminary Lisle, Illinois

This book serves as a practical guide to maximizing clinicians effectiveness in rehabilitating overhead throwing athletes. Topics covered will include throwing mechanics, assessment of throwing athletes, and manual therapy with the primary focus of this guide being exercise interventions. Assessment strategies and exercise interventions will be laid out in a progression that can be easily followed and implemented in the clinic today. The inspiration for this book comes from my professional baseball career ending prematurely due to injury. Shortly after I made the 40-man roster for the New York Yankees, I sustained a shoulder injury that altered my career and life. I nearly made it back up to the MLB before sustaining another serious throwing injury. After multiple injuries and surgeries, I dedicated my life and future career, physical therapy, to discovering why throwing injuries occur and how to prevent them. The goal of this book is to give clinicians practical tools and interventions that they can add to their toolbox, without bogging them down with extraneous material and information. My goal for you is that you can make a difference in throwing athletes careers so they dont have to experience the same career ending injuries that I endured.

In this book, Michael Zarlengo uses Scripture to describe our first day in heaven.God has incredible rewards waiting for His people. Jesus Christ taught that all Christians should seek to be rewarded when we enter heaven. We will receive our rewards from God based on our actions on earth. As we know, these actions cannot earn us heaven. That only occurs by grace, through faith. However, on our first day in heaven our earthly actions, after salvation, are evaluated by God in order to determine the magnificent rewards He will give us.Did you know that the Bible describes our rewards and the exact actions we are to carry out in order to receive them? In the New Testament, the apostle Paul uses the Old Testament examples of the Tabernacle and Day of Atonement ceremony to teach us which actions, called gifts, we can bring to God for our rewards. Paul also teaches us that the Tabernacle and the Day of Atonement conceal the secret of what our first day in heaven will be like.We work hard in this life to retire well. Yet earthly retirement lasts for a short time. Our life in heaven will last for an eternity. Dont you want it to be a well-rewarded time?
Michael Zarlengo, author of Tabernacle Gifts, Our First Day in Heaven, has deeply searched the Scriptures, this time for Gods secret to answered prayer. He follows the fragrant incense of answered prayer throughout the Bible to learn Gods secret. His discovery will astound you.Did you know that in the Old Testament Gods people were given eight prayer laws? When Gods people prayed according to their eight prayer laws they always had their prayers answered. In the New Testament Jesus and the apostles explain the true meanings of these eight prayer laws for us today. These eight old prayer laws reveal Gods New Testament secret of answered prayer to receive anything we request in His name.You may ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it (John 14:14 NIV).What a promise! However, do you receive everything you ask God in prayer? If not, you arent alone. Many Christians do not have the answers they seek. I thought God answered all prayers, one might say. God does answer all prayers; however, we often do not receive what we request.That man should not think he will receive anything from the Lord (James 4:3 NASB).Gods Word says that this is because we are asking incorrectly.You ask and do not receive, because you ask amiss(James 4:3 NKJV). How do we ask correctly and, as Jesus said, receive anything we request? In this book, we will learn the truth about prayer so we will receive the answers we are looking for.The secret of the LORD is for those who fear Him, and He will make them know His...(Ps. 25:14 NASB)The author using only the Bible, listed-out and studied every prayer recorded, every Old Testament prayer law given to Moses, every example of praying, and every teaching on prayer by the Lord Jesus and the Apostles and noticed a repeating pattern for effective prayer of the same eight elements, given in the same order. The book describes his astounding discovery; it is not eight things we are to say in prayer, but the eight ways we are to live in order to receive anything we ask.

In Inclusion: STILL the Competitive Business Advantage, Shirley Engelmeier continues her contributions to thought leadership on the importance of inclusion in an environment that has been roiled with new discussion-and new dissent-amid rapidly changing demographics, continually emerging technology and a global economy that is continually shifting to favor newly emerging market powerhouses.Within this framework one thing remains a constant-the need for inclusion. The need to ensure that the varied voices that exist within and outside of organizations are encouraged, listened to and acted upon to drive engagement, retention, innovation-and market power.The companies that are leading the pack in terms of profit, innovation and employee engagement "get it." No, they're not perfect and they're not achieving 100 percent inclusion 100 percent of the time. But they're moving forward in the right direction with the right mindset-that inclusion is a business imperative that can only be achieved through commitment from the top, clear and measurable objectives and consistent accountability.Inclusion truly is still the driver behind competitive business advantage.
