Deep study of the Word and a gift for bringing lofty concepts down to where the Christian life is really lived are what fueled the preaching and writing of Rev. Reuben Welch for decades. His tenure at what is now Point Loma Nazarene University as both professor and chaplain was incredibly formative for the thousands who sat under his teaching. Welch was sought after as a speaker for college and church revivals, retreats, and conferences throughout the United States. His messages blew a breath of fresh air into the Church of the Nazarene in the 1970s and early ’80s, the impact of which cannot be measured.
The first section of this volume contains ten previously unpublished sermons, including “He Didn’t Have to Survive” and “Stuff That’s Great from Romans 8.” The second section reprints six sermons from 2 Timothy, first preached at what came to be known as “Reuben’s Rock” in Estes Park, Colorado. All are vintage Reuben. His deep insights, humor, and passion to help us live with joy in the tension of the already-but-not-yet kingdom of God make these sermons both timeless and timely.

Great By Choice
$29.99Add to cartThe new question
Ten years after the worldwide bestseller Good to Great, Jim Collins returns with another groundbreaking work, this time to ask: Why do some companies thrive in uncertainty, even chaos, and others do not? Based on nine years of research, buttressed by rigorous analysis and infused with engaging stories, Collins and his colleague, Morten Hansen, enumerate the principles for building a truly great enterprise in unpredictable, tumultuous, and fast-moving times.The new study
Great by Choice distinguishes itself from Collins’s prior work by its focus not just on performance, but also on the type of unstable environments faced by leaders today.With a team of more than twenty researchers, Collins and Hansen studied companies that rose to greatness-beating their industry indexes by a minimum of ten times over fifteen years-in environments characterized by big forces and rapid shifts that leaders could not predict or control. The research team then contrasted these “10X companies” to a carefully selected set of comparison companies that failed to achieve greatness in similarly extreme environments.
The new findings
The study results were full of provocative surprises. Such as:The best leaders were not more risk taking, more visionary, and more creative than the comparisons; they were more disciplined, more empirical, and more paranoid.
Innovation by itself turns out not to be the trump card in a chaotic and uncertain world; more important is the ability to scale innovation, to blend creativity with discipline.
Following the belief that leading in a “fast world” always requires “fast decisions” and “fast action” is a good way to get killed.
The great companies changed less in reaction to a radically changing world than the comparison companies.
The authors challenge conventional wisdom with thought-provoking, sticky, and supremely practical concepts. They include: 10Xers; the 20 Mile March; Fire Bullets, Then Cannonballs; Leading above the Death Line; Zoom Out, Then Zoom In; and the SMaC Recipe.Finally, in the last chapter, Collins and Hansen present their most provocative and original analysis: defining, quantifying, and studying the role of luck. The great companies and the leaders who built them were not luckier than the comparisons, but they did get a higher Return on Luck.
This book is classic Collins: contrarian, data-driven, and uplifting. He and Hansen show convincingly that, even in a chaotic and uncer
