When The Redbud Blooms
$19.36
Trudy had been a Christian for many years though she did not fully understand what being a Christian meant for many of those years. When she was in her mid-thirties the road to spiritual success suddenly had an unexplained detour. All the goals she had set for herself were leaving her empty and lifeless so she decided to abandon control and give her entire life to God to restore purpose and direction. Along the way she and her husband were led to a small Nebraska town where they restored a centuries old home. During the restoration of this home many of their experiences became inspiration for this book. Sometimes we have to believe in the things we cannot see. When relationships are falling apart, finances are stressed, or emotionally we are a wreck, we have to believe in the unseen answer to our need. Like the redbud tree, the hope that unfolds is beautiful and rewarding. It is when you know you are in the Master’s hands. About the Author Trudy Kay Rowley and her husband Gary have been working on homes together since they were married 33 years ago. Over the years they have remodeled, built and restored homes and they have made some amazing personal discoveries about one other. Each project they worked on Trudy was able to see her personal growth and character begin to emerge as she allowed Christ to work in her life. In her deeply passionate style of writing she encourages the reader to step out of their comfort zone and allow God to direct the changes in their life. Trudy and Gary have one daughter and two wonderful grandchildren. For the last 25 years Trudy has grown from a woman trying to live a good life to a woman who is living the good life.

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

Mere Christianity
$17.99Arguably the 20th century’s most influential Christian writer, C.S. Lewis sought to explain and defend the beliefs that nearly all Christians at all times hold in common. His simple yet deeply profound classic, originally delivered as a series of radio broadcasts, is a book to be thoroughly digested by believers and generously shared with skeptics. Paperback with French f laps and deckled page edges.

Problem Of Pain
$17.99For centuries Christians have been tormented by one question above all — If God is good and all-powerful, why does he allow his creatures to suffer pain? C. S. Lewis sets out to disentangle this knotty issue but wisely adds that in the end no intellectual solution can dispense with the necessity for patience and courage.
