Book Description
Discover your unique imprint for work that makes you come alive, fills you with meaning, joy, purpose, and possibility, then spend the rest of your life doing it. We’re all born with a certain “imprint” for work that makes us come alive. This is your "Sparketype®," your DNA-level driver of work that lets you know, deep down, you’re doing what you’re here to do. Work that motivates you, fills you with purpose and, fully-expressed in a healthy way, becomes a main-line to meaning, flow, performance, and joy. Put another way, work that “sparks” you. Sparked draws upon years of research, experimentation, more than 25-million data-points generated by over half-a-million people, and hundreds of deep-dive conversations with luminaries from science to art to industry and wellbeing. Award-winning author, serial wellness-industry founder, and host of the top-ranked Good Life Project®, Jonathan Fields, and his team at Spark Endeavors, developed the Sparketype imprints and methodology that is the basis of this book. In this book, Fields and his team will help you: Discover what sparks you, what drains you, where you stumble and come alive, so you can reclaim a sense of direction, control, and purpose; Understand the “real” reasons certain experiences, jobs, and roles leave you empty and know how to make things better, without having to endure big disruptive changes; Learn from real-world, relatable stories, case-studies, and data-driven insights; Identify the action steps to begin immediately transforming the way you work and live. Sparked takes you deep into the world of the Sparketypes, revealing an entirely new depth of insights about what makes you come alive in work life, along with what empties you out and trips you up, so you can avoid those life-drains. You’ll discover tons of case studies, stories, and real-world applications, creating a comprehensive guide to help you discover what you are meant to do and how to get started.

Book Description
“I have these whispers in my ears. I see things, and my mind is so full of thoughts that it’s really tough to choose one. It’s just so crowded and… I don’t know how to un-crowd it. I don’t know how to focus. I don’t know what to do. I can’t think about only one thing, and it makes my head ache.” This is a simple story about, amongst other things, a bunch of suicidal teenagers convincing each other suicide isn’t an option. It’s hard to keep your shit together when the worst thing has happened. It’s hard to smile and pretend like everything’s okay but, well, we do it anyway, don’t we? But what happens when the burden gets heavier? What happens when that ray of light disappears? Being a teenager is a war. The question is—will we get out of it alive?

Book Description
Seven years ago, Sam and I were best friends and the goofiest computer nerds in New Jersey and, possibly, the world. We also made a pact to meet up and get busy if one or both of us were still virgins by our twenty-fourth birthdays. I assumed that was a silly pinky swear we'd both forgotten about until Sam shows up at my twenty-fourth birthday party, ready and willing to make good on our bargain. Boy is he ready... Gone is the lanky kid with glasses who made me snort-laugh when we played video games. In his place is a sex god with massive biceps, designer clothes, and a smolder that transforms women to quivering puddles of lust. I’m out of my league with this new Sam. But I’m also every bit as drawn to him as I used to be. So, when he dares me to give him a chance to prove he’s still the same trusted kindred spirit I remember, I agree. What do I have to lose, aside from my V Card? Oh, right. My heart…

Book Description
As the western church faces challenges in declining membership and effectiveness due to religious disaffiliation and general discontent with organized religion, innovation must be a central focus within all aspects of ministry in the Christian church. With the focus that the local church must put on innovation, one aspect that will continually be an important factor is how the church understands, interprets, and utilizes failure. Yes, the church must fail! However, the church must not simply fail for the sake of failure. The challenge for the local church is to rethink its notion of failure, which will allow for creativity, new life, and ultimately, transformational innovation. By establishing a proper framework and definition of failure, the church will be able to embrace good failure and the benefits it can offer.

All Leo Wilson wants is an okay for his plans to install glass fireworks at Fort Vancouver on the Fourth of July. With thousands of people there to see his work, it could be his big career break. If the crabby bureaucrat will get him the permits he needs. When Leo confronts the cause of his trouble in person, he’s surprised to find a beautiful young woman.

And find out why he’s with her ex. If she makes the right decisions, she and Leo will privately create fireworks that rival the pyrotechnics that light up the sky on July Fourth.

How Mum's Death Sparked off Thoughts of Eternal Life

Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 198458992X
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 178

Book Description
This book about ’How Mum’s Death Sparked Off Thoughts of Eternal Life’, is a fast moving narrative of how the death of a woman who was described as a virtuous woman by her community and the wider community, triggered thoughts of eternal life in many people, particularly the author herself. The author, Tsitsi Dorcas Jongwe is a daughter of an Anglican Cleric and has had wide experience of practical Christian spirituality in a family of a parish Priest, Reverend Canon Lazarus Muyambi and wife Irene Neddie Muyambi of the Anglican Diocese of Central Zimbabwe. Tsitsi is moved to a deeper reflection about eternal life and its meaning after the death of her mother on 21st of November 2016. She provides a wonderful, clear and helpful reflection on the subject of life after death and eternal life. Tsitsi articulates a true and unique life of Neddie, the virtuous woman of Zimbabwe in Africa; whose clear hope and belief in eternal life was the strong source of inspiration for many. The book further provokes thoughts about modern and ancient Christian spirituality in preparation for the unavoidable eternal life. Critical theological and dogmatic concepts of the purgatory, limbo, resurrection, heaven, hades, hell, Judgment, paradise and many others are explored in detail. There is greater clarity on the relationship between the living and the dead for the avoidance of syncretism and propagation of pure and clean Christian spirituality. The greater fears of the uncertain relations between the dead and the living are well discussed and clearly explained, at least from scriptural experience. Rev. Father Albert Mvundla Ncube
