Healing The Wounded Soul 3
$15.49
Many people are plagued with thoughts they cannot control. Some people repent time and again for the same wrongs they confessed for years, trying to feel more repentant with each confession. Other people’s thoughts condemn them for the most insignificant errors. Others continually repeat certain rituals. How can we know if what we are thinking comes from God, or if we are simply listening to our own thoughts and desires? Or, worse yet, could this be a temptation coming from the enemy, appearing as an angel of light? How can we distinguish between God convicting us of sin and the temptation to get down on ourselves and become depressed? We know that God wants to communicate with us. Yet many people have little idea of how God communicates with us as individuals.We know that He speaks through His Word, but how can we know what He is trying to tell us as individuals when faced with hard decisions? How can we know that we’re not imagining what we think He is saying? Examining our thought life involves distinguishing three kinds of voices. We use our minds to think our own thoughts.When God communicates with us, His thoughts must register in our minds if we are to understand what He is saying. Our temptations must also register in our minds if they are to become real temptations. In this volume of Healing the Wounded Soul, Dr.Westmeier helps readers to sort out their thoughts and gives biblical steps to become free from obsessive thinking. Healing the Wounded Soul is a four-volume set. Taking Every Thought Captive is the third volume. Although they can be read separately, each volume addresses healing in a specific area of life. The series was first published in Spanish and German.

No matter where we are on our path of discipleship, he offers encouragement to shed the limitations of fear, shame, and doubt through complete reliance upon God.

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
