Around the World by Freighter
Have you ever dreamed of traveling around the world? Do you wonder what life on board a freighter is like? What do I do all day? Do I fit the psychological profile of a freighter traveler? What kind of electric plug do I need? What is it like to be on the bridge and watch the captain and pilot maneuver our ship into port? Do they speak English? Will I get seasick? Around the World by Freighter tells you all this and so much more in day-by-day detail. Would you delight in watching a group of Polynesian women line dancing in Tahiti? How about wandering through Singapore's Chinatown at midnight? Sit back and travel hour by hour through the Panama Canal. You might prefer seeing London from a dou...
I Hope It's Not Hereditary
"The powerful and humorous backstory of famous evangelist Bob Hartley as told by his son, including the son's childhood memories and adult reflection"--
A Season of Loss, a Lifetime of Forgiveness
This narrative about two boys from different backgrounds touches on family, forgiveness, sport, and making peace with tragedy. Dan Snyder was not a sure thing in professional hockey, but defied expectations—playing for both the minor league's Chicago Wolves and the NHL's Atlanta Thrashers. Dany Heatley, on the other hand, had been tapped for success from the start as a college star and high draft pick. The two made an unlikely pair, but became friends. In September of 2003, the then 22-year-old Heatley lost control of his speeding Ferrari; Snyder was thrown from the vehicle and died six days later. The loss of their teammate, friend, and son sent those who knew Snyder looking for healing or revenge. As the legal story unfolds, so too does a story of forgiveness, rooted in the Canadian Mennonite tradition from which Snyder hailed. Snyder's family, taking an approach to their loss dictated by their faith, chose to make peace with both Heatley and his parents. This story of forgiveness reveals a lesson in loss, hope, and peace in the face of tragedy.
North and Central
Andy's a bartender in North Austin in the late 1970s. For years, he's been slinging beers to corrupt cops and fat Zenith employees, but given the neighborhood's ongoing decline (and his own serious health issues), he's starting to wonder how long it can go on. He's a dying man serving workers from a dying factory in a dying neighborhood; he sees crime on the rise--and he decides to become a criminal himself."North and Central" perfectly evokes Chicago in the epic winter of '78-'79--the bleak season of blizzards and disco and John Wayne Gacy--capturing the city in microcosm through the denizens of one blue-collar watering hole. If Springsteen and Bukowski had teamed up to write a story about a Chicago bar, they'd have been hard pressed to do better than this; it's an anti-Cheers, a bittersweet story about a place where everybody knows your nickname, and they're tired of you coming around because you're a degenerate. But it's more than just a static portrait; it's a gripping and moving story destined to earn its own place among the classics of Chicago literature.
Motivation For Ministry
This book provides encouragement for pastors carrying out their tasks as servants of Christ. Even pastors get discouraged at times. Indeed, the Bible tells us that the devil works harder at bringing down pastors and leaders of God’s people! If you’re a pastor, how are you—as God’s servant—to deal with all of these feels and remain dedicated to the Lord’s service? In Motivation for Ministry, veteran pastor Nathan R. Pope demonstrates that attitude is the catalyst for motivation in your ministry. He also provides powerful tools and insightful strategies to help all pastors and leaders of God’s church respond joyfully to the Lord’s calling. With personal anecdotes, Scripture references, and solidly biblical doctrine, this book will guide and inspire you to give God the glory in your work for him!

The Emerging Daniel Company
The Emerging Daniel Company is a unique book for the times we are in. It has a present Word that contains spiritual substance and life. This book is not for the complacent, who desire the status quo. It is for those described in Daniel 11:32, 33, "...but the people who know their God shall be strong and carry out great exploits. And those of the people who understand shall instruct many".
