    From debut author Mark Miller comes a gripping tale of a nation crumbling.The once great kingdom of Alssae is now a shattered cluster of city states that struggle with their neighbors over their own pride, each consumed with rebellion and poisoned with tyranny. Trofaim, the old capital of kings, is now a hive of power for the politicians who perpetuate wars for personal gain.The greatest key to peace, war, and profit in Alssae is held by those who control the city of Trofaim. For peace to be reestablished, it must begin in Trofaim. For the flames of war to reignite, it will begin in Trofaim.A woman struggles through the pain of loss to preserve her own city. A retired war hero seeking peace on his farm is dragged back into the heated strife that fueled the bloody war he's tried so hard to forget. A revolutionary finds himself fighting the rebellion he started alongside a man he previously sought to kill. All of whom must find their own way to overcome their current circumstances and all to come. For each of them.In the tradition of C.S. Lewis's Chronicles of Narnia and the fantasy epics of J.R. Tolkien, Blood Alone is a sweeping adventure across a richly realized world of political intrigue, personal loss, and ultimately, redemption.

    Life is good for Jim. He is satisfied as the pastor of a large church, gladly married to a wonderful woman, and has two adorable little girls. His cup overflows. Then he gradually realizes he's become attracted to a member of his congregation. Through a series of inappropriate meetings with her, he moves closer and closer to falling to temptation and devastating repercussions. Ignored by Jim, though, is someone trying to save him. The Pastor's Confession honestly illuminates the awful appeal of an extramarital affair. As the story of temptation unfolds, other faith issues are raised-the role of politics in church life, the Christian and money, the effects of sexually explicit entertainment, to name a few. And, of course, the grace of God is ever-present in the confession. This is the second book in the series, The Pastor and the Seven Deadly Sins.

    Five women rose in the dark of a Sunday morning on Nisan 18, AD 30. They had agreed to meet together in the most densely populated city in the Roman Empire to perform a necessary but cheerless and gruesome task. Two of them were relatives of the deceased man; each of the other three had been healed by his touch. Their mission was critical. In the rush to entomb their Rabbi by nightfall three and a half days earlier, a crucial step had been omitted-that of applying oils to his burial shroud.The women had prepared the oils as soon as possible and carried them in small alabastra, but they had been excessively delayed. Not one but two intervening Sabbaths had postponed their graveside visit until that particular morning. They knew the stench inside the cave-like tomb would be unbearable, but their love compelled them to honor the man they grieved so deeply.They didn't know that Roman soldiers had been posted to guard the doubly sealed tomb.They didn't know that the stone over the tomb entrance weighed about three-quarters of a ton.But then the sun broke.This is their story-and his.The most important day in history is the day Jesus Christ rose from the dead. This is the complete, integrated account of the events from Jesus' last words to his ascension, combining all the New Testament records with additional historical and cultural information. The resurrection of Jesus was the most pivotal day in history.DAWN is actually two books in one. Part One (the first half of the book) is dramatized history. It reads as a multi-layered story, with dialogue and historical details to highlight the emotions and movements of the characters involved. It transports you, the reader, back into Palestine some 2,000 years ago to experience the dynamics of those emotionally charged days. The second half of the book provides the background research for the story. This half of the book consists of Part Two, which is a complete integration of the four gospel accounts with extensive footnotes, and Part Three, which addresses questions about the chronology, writers, characters, and relationships. Particular focus is given to the women, especially Mary Magdalene. The book is 392 pages (softcover).From the Author:While researching and writing this book, I was continually surprised and delighted by the discovery of hidden details which I had never noticed before, despite having already read the resurrection accounts more than 100 times. For example, in this book you will discover: 1. The names of the four relatives of Jesus at the cross, and their relationships 2. What was happening at the temple at the time Jesus died 3. Where the disciples were between the crucifixion and resurrection 4. Why Peter and John were separated from the other disciples and from each other 5. Why the Jewish leaders wanted Roman guards at the tomb (It was not for the reason they gave) 6. How it's known that Jesus was resurrected (at least) several hours before dawn. 7. How the guards' own words prove they were lying about the body being stolen 8. From whom Matthew learned about the soldiers' experience at the tomb 9. Why Peter made a second trip to the tomb (yes, he made a second trip) 10. What was the connection between Mary of Bethany and Mary Magdalene 11. Who first believed that Jesus was alive (it's not Mary Magdalene) 12. Where Mother Mary was between the crucifixion and the day of Pentecost...and more!

    av Mark Miller
    384,-

    Every great company has an engaged workforce, and nurturing a culture of engagement is at the heart of great leadership-employees who really care about their work, their coworkers, and the organization can supercharge a company's success. But for many years, engagement has been suffering. Gallop reports that 70 percent of employees are fully engaged on the job. Mark Miller draws on more than forty years of leadership experience to show leaders at all levels how to change the conversation and create real competitive advantage in the process. In the fourth book in Miller's High Performance Series, CEO Blake Brown sets out to discover how to create the kind of workplace where everyone feels excited to come to work, passionate about what he or she brings to the company, and energized at the end of the day. It's a journey that takes him literally all over the world-from Italy to Greece to Green Bay and more. What he discovers from the pages of history is as relevant as the evening news. Engagement unleashes untapped potential buried deep within the hearts of your people. An engaged workforce is more creative, more driven, and more enthusiastic about reaching company goals. If you put the lessons in this book to work, your people will never look at work, or their leaders, the same way again.
