From an Argument I've Taken with Me
From an argument I've taken with me is about travel - both about the poet's actual travels to the other side of the globe, and about travelling as a way of being in the world. Roberts journeys to Tibet and Nepal, but also to the more inscrutable countries of his Canadian family and childhood, and gives us haunting flashes of insight into these far-away and private territories.

Of Fathers & Gods
Of Fathers & Gods is a debut collection of short fiction that delves into the relationships between fathers and their children: the good, the bad, and the awful. In these emotionally charged stories, a young expectant father, on the edge of homelessness, loses his religion and duels with a street preacher; fifty-year-old twins, survivors of foster care, war, and prison, fight over the decision to finally meet the father who abandoned them as infants, and hold him to account; and a Pulitzer-winning, ageist professor seeks to quash the writing dreams of an elderly student while coming to terms with how much love he's lost as a result of his career. These nine stories open a window into the most primal elements of the human condition-childhood and parenting-and show us how, try as we might, we can never fully escape the bonds of blood.
No One Wins Alone
INSTANT #1 NATIONAL BESTSELLER The legendary Hall of Fame hockey player and six-time Stanley Cup champion shares his inspiring story and the lessons about leadership and teamwork that defined his career. Mark Messier is one of the most accomplished athletes in the history of professional sports. He is a fierce competitor with a well-earned reputation as a winner. But few people know his real story, not only of the astonishing journey he took to making NHL history, but of the deep understanding of leadership and respect for the power of teamwork he gained. Messier tells of his early years with his tight-knit family, learning especially from his father, Doug—a hockey player, coach, and teach...
No One Wins Alone
Everybody has value and should be made to feel that way. That was one of our fundamental tenets, and we all bough into it completely. We believed that if you've built the right culture-a culture of inclusion-then an important contribution could just as likely come from a guy who says he's keeping his fingers crossed to hang on with the team as from one of the stars. Book jacket.
Jim's Journey
Dr. Jim Roberts III is known as a man of God, but it was not always that way. The Lord graciously took him from a small town in South Carolina to lead great ministries in Scottland, South Carolina, and the villages of India...from a place of spiritual rebellion to a place of being used greatly by the Lord. Where are you in your life? Do you wonder if the Lord can or will use you? Whether working in a small tire shop, having fireworks thrown down the aisle during his preaching, or taking big steps of faith when others would have been too afraid, Dr. Jim is a sterling example of submission to the King. In these pages, you will find faith, submission, and action! Is your life not exactly what you imagined it would be? There is nothing standing your way of being used by God if you will submit to him.
