Balancing Work And Life
$13.99Life is more like a marathon than a sprint. Here’s how to stay well conditioned.
Bill Butterworth will make you laugh-and learn while you’re doing it! In the opening chapter of this powerful little book, Bill shares with you how, while running his rotund body in a nightmarish 440-yard dash, he learned a great lesson:
Life is much more like a marathon than a sprint.The attitudes and actions that result in steady success over the long haul are what make for long-term satisfaction and achievement. To experience this for yourself, you need to understand how to deal with life’s inevitable challenges:
*The “Hazies”-losing sight of long-term goals
*The “Lazies”-lacking the self-discipline to bring life back into focus
*The “Crazies”-allowing life to run out of controlEach of these can be conquered by three “clarifying triangles:” setting clear priorities, learning the discipline of endurance, and reaching the finish line through skillful pacing. It all adds up to a succinct and inspiring guide to balancing excellence at work with fulfillment in all of life.

Como Ganarse A La Gente – (Spanish)
$17.99Descripcion (Description): Las relaciones son el epicentro de todas las experiencias positivas en los seres humanos. Desde el momento en que nacemos, las relaciones nos marcan, en nuestras familias, en el campo de juegos, en la escuela y en nuestros trabajos. Maxwell, un comunicador maestro y experto en estudio relacional, hace que el aprendizaje sobre las relaciones sea algo accesible para todos. Los lideres mas sofisticados y los vendedores podran asirse de habilidades que los haran progresar y los novatos en relaciones aprenderan tecnicas que los transformaran en unos verdaderos dinamos de sus relaciones.
Relationships are at the heart of every positive human experience. From the moment of birth, relationships mark us – in our families, on the playground, at school, and in the workplace.
Maxwell, a master communicator and relational expert, makes learning about relationships accessible to everyone. The most sophisticated leaders and salespeople will pick up on skills that will make them even better. And relational novices will learn skills that can transform them into relational dynamos.
Maxwell’s secret is the people principles he teaches. Relationships work and build on five levels: Readiness, Connection, Trust, Investment, and Reward. On each level are principles that will change the way you view interpersonal relationships. Some are intuitive, such as the Mirror Principle: The first person we must examine is ourselves. Others may go against your instincts, such as the Confrontation Principle: Caring for people should precede confronting people. All of them are 100 percent practical!
Maxwell delves into issues that confront us in the workplace, at home, in church, at school – in short, anyplace you find people. And he reveals not only the benefits of developing healthy relationships, but how to actually do it. Working with others is the key to success in every area of life. As Maxwell says, “If you can win with people, you can win!”

Corporate America : Refreshing The Christian Business Man
$16.86I am hoping that this book will help encourage those of us who are especially involved in corporate America. I will be the first one to tell you that this book isn’t a really deep one, but it’s a nice easy read. I have found that it is very easy to get caught up in the busyness of life, in the politics of corporate America, so that we lose our focus on Christ. Hopefully by digging into the Word of God we will be encouraged and will change our lives, especially to be an example while we are at work. Once again, this is a simple reminder and refresher, so we can focus more of our energies on actually doing God’s will, not just reading about what we are supposed to be doing. Let’s remember that Christ makes us who we are, not our jobs and busy schedules.

3. Learning As Witness
4. English Teaching As Witness
5. English Teaching As Ministry
6. English Teaching As Christian Service
7. English Teaching Toward Peacemaking And Intercultural Understanding
8. English Teachers As Bridges Between Churches
189 PagesAdditional Info
What does it mean to teach English in the name of Christ? With thousands of Christians teaching English as a second or foreign language in hundreds of locations around the world, this has become as urgent question.Some Christian English teachers may consider their teaching simply as a means of service (combined with a bit of adventure). Others may see it only as a mean of getting a visa into a closed country for purposes of evangelism. Don Snow’s well-thought out details of how to bear witness, engage in ministry, serve the poor, contribute to peace, and build bridges of understanding between churches clearly show the special role in Christian missions that Christian English teachers have.

Building A Partnership With Your Boss

But there’s an alternative that’s better for both assistant and boss, and it’s called “partnership.” In this eye-opening book, assistants learn how they can break out of old, narrow roles and enjoy working with a boss instead of for a boss. This change liberates creativity and self-confidence, and reveals hidden skills and interests. It also makes an assistant more valuable (and promotable) to the boss and the company. Readers learn specific techniques for how to: * initiate the transition to a partnering relationship * understand their boss’s work style and adapt to it — without losing their sense of self * become a proactive worker who takes responsibility for mistakes and credit for successes

Also A Mother
$24.99As the twentieth century closes, the cry for equality between the sexes is provoking unprecedented conflicts between women and men in the workplace and in the family. Women of all colors and classes continue to carry out an enormous amount of indispenable, unrenumerated caring labor, which at once undergirds and is peripheral to human life, as men have defined it and therefore without value. Also a Mother protests this defined it, and therefore without value. Also a Mother protests this definition of work and value, and claims that beneath the everyday scuffles over gender roles and child care lies an essential religious crisis of work and love. Drawing on her situation as seminary professor and mother of three sons, Bonnie J. Miller-McLemore argues that Christian ideals of mother self-sacrifice and fatherly hard work, as they have been interpreted by church tradition and promoted in society at large, not only fail the lives of many people today, but misrepresent both the intent of God’s creation and the promise of the gospel message itself. She asks: How might theological doctrines of love, self sacrifice, creation, procreation, vocation, and community better respond to women and men who want to work in fulfilling ways and to love in intimate relationships, including those that involve raising children?
