Unleashing the Gift of Giving
A successful legacy is best achieved by the skillful blending of the work of the ministry with the wealth of the giver around a common vision. Too often, ministries and givers never work together to develop their legacy plans, resulting in many ministries lacking the financial resources to effectively fulfill their calling. Why? Because the gift of giving has been tied up; held back; leashed. It is time for ministries to stop looking for donors to write them a check and begin to minister to those who have the gift of giving, helping them fulfill their calling to give. It is time to unleash the gift of giving. In Unleashing the Gift of Giving, through scriptural truths, practical insights, and engaging examples, Rusty Russell explains how a ministry can both minister in their calling and minister to the ones with the gift of giving. By doing this, ministries can unleash the gift of giving to provide the financial resources to accomplish their calling as well as build a sustainable ministry legacy that will survive the founder.
Twelve Mighty Orphans
Jim Dent, author of the New York Times bestselling The Junction Boys, returns with his most powerful story of human courage and determination. More than a century ago, a school was constructed in Fort Worth, Texas, for the purpose of housing and educating the orphans of Texas Freemasons. It was a humble project that for years existed quietly on a hillside east of town. Life at the Masonic Home was about to change, though, with the arrival of a lean, bespectacled coach by the name of Rusty Russell. Here was a man who could bring rain in the midst of a drought. Here was a man who, in virtually no time at all, brought the orphans' story into the homes of millions of Americans. In the 1930s and ...

When God Builds a Church
Can the church truly be the "city on a hill that cannot be hidden" that Jesus talked about in the Sermon on the Mount?

This book shares not only the story of one of the most amazing churches in America but also the story of what your church can become as you follow these ten time-tested principles and allow God to build your church.
The Intellectual Sword
A history of Harvard Law School in the twentieth century, focusing on the school’s precipitous decline prior to 1945 and its dramatic postwar resurgence amid national crises and internal discord. By the late nineteenth century, Harvard Law School had transformed legal education and become the preeminent professional school in the nation. But in the early 1900s, HLS came to the brink of financial failure and lagged its peers in scholarly innovation. It also honed an aggressive intellectual culture famously described by Learned Hand: “In the universe of truth, they lived by the sword. They asked no quarter of absolutes, and they gave none.” After World War II, however, HLS roared back. I...
