Starry Lake
$19.99
He took one last look across tranquil Lake Huron in the moonlight and sighed. For ten months, this truth trek to discover the meaning of life, had gotten him nowhere. If Harrison Somerville didn’t have answers soon, he’d come to understand what he had expected all along. There was no God. No truth. No love.
Lily Martin is at her wit’s end. Being a single parent of a ten-year old is challenging. But Jasmine is no ordinary child. Gifted with an extremely high IQ, an unquenchable thirst for scientific knowledge, and a penchant for mischief, most days Lily wrings her hands in frustration. But the mother-daughter camping trip soon brings much bigger problems.
For the oddest reason, Lily Martin and her spirited daughter, Jasmine keep dropping in Harrison’s path. Literally. Harrison is charmed by the antics and mind-boggling intelligence of the spunky child. Before long, he feels compelled to protect this mother-daughter pair from Lily’s belligerent ex and a strange man that begins appearing on trails and her campsite.
And wonder of all wonders, Lily has the answer he’s been searching for-so she says.
An imminent weather warning brings his truth trek to a crisis, while his feelings for Lily confuse and overwhelm him.
Then the unimaginable happens.

Great By Choice
$29.99The 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

Ruthless Trust : The Ragamuffins Path To God
$14.99We are made for the love of God, and nothing less will ever satisfy us. In his acclaimed bestseller, The Ragamuffin Gospel, Brennan Manning showed us the powerful truth that the divine gifts of love is ever present for us regardless of the state of our lives.
