Against the harsh realities of the Second Congo War, Cockroaches, God, Death, and Mangoes reveals an extraordinary tale of survival and resilience. 

When six-year-old Bikonzi and his family are torn from their home and thrust into the horrors of a concentration camp, they must navigate a world where hope is scarce and survival comes at a steep cost. As Bikonzi grapples with the absence of God and the omnipresence of Death, his family makes a pact to endure—no matter the compromises and sacrifices required. 

In this gripping true story, the Moise family’s journey reveals the unyielding human spirit’s ability to find light even in the darkest of times.

Alligator in the Ocean illustrates one family’s drive to stop a serial predator and overcome the heart-wrenching struggles that followed.

Anina Swan shares the true account of how she survived the brutality of a serial predator, Ivan, unveiled traumatic amnesia, and rallied help to stop his crime spree. With deep-seated courage, Anina did the unthinkable when she confronted her perpetrator. The result eventually delivered Ivan’s confessions of assaulting hundreds of children, according to local news reports. The chaotic aftermath ultimately led to his arrest and how Anina transformed her pain into purpose and adversity into triumph.

In Alligator in the Ocean, Anina creatively weaves scenes from three different perspectives: one of the child victims, herself as a young mother, and the perpetrator through portions of his handwritten letters that he wrote to his wife, Adele, while incarcerated. Anina illustrates how the wounds of crime reach beyond the victim and spread through family and community. She gives a deeply personal account of how she persevered and overcame what seemed impossible. Then how she transformed—through forgiveness sought and found. This poignant story proves that where there is hope, the crippling effects of violence can be overcome and result in a profound desire to live a better life.

Alligator in the Ocean is a unique story based on a collection of Anina’s journals, court documents, slides and photos, newspaper articles, interviews, and the original letters written by Ivan to his wife while incarcerated.

Gratitude isn’t just a virtue—it’s a force that shapes the success of organizations. Gravitude reveals how leaders can harness this powerful force through six foundational pillars: Phileo Love, Trust, Teamwork, BHAGs (Big Hairy Audacious Goals), Legacy, and Identity. Just as gravity strengthens with mass, the presence of these pillars amplifies Gravitude—a measurable force that fosters engagement, loyalty, and organizational excellence.

Featuring exclusive insights from top executives—including Dave Katz (President & COO, Coca-Cola Consolidated), Glen Jackson (Co-Founder, Jackson Spalding), Tim Fisher (President, Jackson + Coker), John Featherston (Sr. Director, Chick-fil-A), Ben Tyson (CEO, No Longer Bound), and Horst Schulze (Co-Founder, Ritz-Carlton)—this book validates how gratitude transforms workplace culture.

Gravitude also distinguishes between fleeting thankfulness and deep, lasting gratitude, explaining why cultivating “grateful fans” leads to greater organizational success than simply creating “raving fans.” Finally, it introduces the Gravitude Quotient (GQ), a groundbreaking tool that enables leaders to measure and strengthen gratitude within their teams.

"I've often said gratitude completes the connection between an organization and its people. Mark Bowling successfully conveys this mission-critical message, empowering businesses to foster cultures of excellence. At the heart of such excellence—even in an age of automation—is the celebration of people. This is the essence of Gravitude —a much-needed call for organizations to prioritize their people, creating a thriving, purpose-driven workplace." —Horst Schulze, Co-Founder & Former President/CEO, The Ritz-Carlton Hotel Company

“You will never look at our planet in the same way.”

The Wise Man and the Story of Plenty depicts humanity’s unstoppable journey in a world of abundance, posing the critical question: Has humanity been wise in treating the planet in ways that now jeopardize its future?

As global crises multiply, solutions often fail to address the interconnected roots of these challenges, focusing instead on isolated problems with limited impact. This eye-opening resource highlights the deeper crisis of overexploitation by a species that perceives itself as separate from nature. Understanding the present crisis requires a reflection on humanity’s past and an exploration of the consequences of current trajectories.

From the dark caves of the Stone Age to today’s industrialized world, the story unpacks how a stable, plentiful environment enabled humanity to rise to dominance. Yet, this dominance, driven by a profit-centric system powered by fossil fuels, now threatens the planet—and humanity’s survival.

It’s therefore not about saving the planet, but about saving humanity.

In this historic moment of magnitude, what’s needed is a profound shift in mindset and a new sense of consciousness to reconnect with nature and rethink humanity’s role in a world that moves beyond overexploitation. Rather than polarizing, shaming, or blaming, this story offers instead a call for unity and optimism.

The most empowering aspect is that the ending to the Story of Plenty remains unwritten, and it’s down to humanity to decide how it will continue . . .

Discover what true femininity is in The Feminine Effect.

This is a message for all women: Conditioned by parental viewpoints and societal rules, women have long twisted themselves into unrecognizable identities to adhere to these demands—striving after power as defined by men, only to find themselves exhausted and unhappy. What if this centuries-long attempt to excel in a world with masculine values took women in the wrong direction? What if they no longer know what it means to be a woman? What, indeed, is the true nature of a woman?

Chelsea O’Brien’s mission is to take women back to their authenticity—to who they really are—and she does this by asking women to feel and see her life as she did: a life that has taken her from the extremes of poverty and wealth, of great fear and power, of divorce and death, and finally into laughter and joy and unconditional love. She represents all the best and worst parts of being a woman, all the while confirming those inklings women have to follow their hearts that, up to now, they haven’t dared to honor.

Guided by the mystical teachings of her mentor, Abdy Electriciteh, Chelsea uses vulnerable lessons around male and female relationships to redefine the true nature of a woman.

Find out what really goes on behind the scenes of long-term care facilities in Be Aware of That Nursing Home.

Drawing from Richard Danforth’s unparalleled, hands-on experience and insight into the long-term care system and its impact on consumers and families, this resource serves as an essential guide for those navigating the complexities of choosing nursing home care, emphasizing the importance of dignity, rights, and quality of life. Not only a testament to Richard’s lifelong commitment to advocacy, it’s also a call to action for systemic change.

At a time when nursing home conditions are once again in the media, Be Aware of That Nursing Home offers a valuable perspective not commonly available to potential nursing home consumers and family members. What is available is slick, often misleading marketing created by an industry reaping massive profits off taxpayer dollars. Information attempting to influence policymakers is mostly provided by well-meaning academics, data experts, or attorneys who are one step removed from personally witnessing the everyday realities of nursing home environments. Those efforts are repeatedly squelched by the well-financed, powerful lobbyists of the long-term care industry. Otherwise, the tragic, unacceptable conditions in far too many nursing homes would never have happened.

Beware That Nursing Home informs consumers and families as to how today’s nursing homes came about, what tragedies occur daily, and what consumers need to know to protect themselves when choosing a facility. Not only is this information crucial for consumers and families, but it’s also important for the underappreciated, underpaid professionals attempting to serve in dysfunctional and often life-threatening environments.

Heading into the unknown world of adult orphanhood?

Helping one’s parents as they age and eventually leave this world can be difficult. While caring for them perfectly isn’t a realistic expectation, it is possible to let them go without losing sight of kindness and compassion for them and the caregiver.

When parents begin to need assistance, the path from mild annoyance to complete overwhelm can change in an instant.

The Canteen explores the dangers of self-sufficiency and the profound lessons learned from stepping out into the unknown through the lens of one man’s African mission.

At the pivotal age of nineteen, Kyle Gabhart embarked on a journey that expanded his horizons, challenged his faith, and allowed him to experience a world he had only read about. Traveling from Fort Worth, Texas, to Johannesburg, South Africa, he was confronted by a world that was as foreign and fierce as it was brilliant and beautiful. For nearly a month, he explored Johannesburg, Pretoria, the surrounding wilderness, and the bush in Zimbabwe.

For the next two decades, his experiences continued to make an indelible impact on his life, opening his eyes to the realities of hunger and violence experienced in other parts of the globe. Before this journey, Kyle had little understanding of developing countries, and never before had he been a minority or spent much time in a place where English was not the dominant tongue. Those twenty-five days in May 1999 immersed Kyle in a foreign land with a radically different culture and transformed the way he sees the world.

The Canteen invites believers on a journey of faith and discovery that challenges them to analyze the source of their confidence. Are they relying upon their own skills and assets or the Lord’s? Are they clutching onto something temporal as their provision or releasing everything to open their arms for whatever God has in store for them?

In 2012, Tray Rush was struggling to make ends meet. He tried switching jobs, taking on second jobs, and pursuing countless failed “can’t miss” business opportunities, in an effort to turn things around. Nothing worked. Fearing his dream of becoming an entertainer and building a life of freedom as an entrepreneur would never happen, he tried something different.

In just a few years, Tray amassed more than 10+ million social media followers, billions of views on YouTube, and a thriving business and real estate portfolio.

Retune Your Heart is a beautiful reminder of how the “extra” is everywhere if people are willing to open their eyes and hearts to see it.

Life is full of things that, at first glance, seem rather ordinary: a young girl learning to ride a bike with her dad; the bond between an old man and his canine companion; a pair of eighty-year-old lovers still holding hands; sunrises, sunsets, and double rainbows; and the kindness of strangers, to name a few. 

But several years ago, Don Blackwell realized that if he paid a little closer attention, opened his eyes and heart just a little wider, every now and then he would see beyond the ordinariness. He would see something “extra.” Turns out, the “extra” is everywhere—and it’s unspeakably beautiful.

This inspirational guidebook uses deeply personal stories to provide encouragement to those searching and hungry for hope and provides the wake-up call the world needs concerning mental health.

Retune Your Heart stirs the spirits and soothes the soul, urging people to move beyond setbacks and heartbreak, embrace vulnerability, and get back to living their best, most authentic lives. 

How can one view the world biologically but also biblically?

The walls people build around their lives protect them—but also limit them.

People build many intellectual, emotional, and spiritual walls around themselves, those they love, and their community. Often, these walls safeguard them and help them understand their life and purpose. Yet sometimes, these walls impede people from fully experiencing life as God wants them to.

Which self-built walls are helping these people? Which walls are holding them back?

In his second book, Biblical Biology, Dr. Woodard invites individuals to explore big ideas around biology and faith to see whether any of these ideas hit up against their walls. If they do, that’s okay. Believers are encouraged to see whether there might be something on the other side that opens up a new way to think, feel, or connect with God.

The Indy 500 chronicles the tradition, pageantry, and on-track danger of the “Greatest Spectacle in Racing.”

Not only is it the biggest auto race in the world, but with over 350,000 spectators, the Indianapolis 500 is annually the largest single-day sporting event in the world.

Interrupted only by world wars, the Indy 500 has been a Memorial Day tradition since 1911, and race car drivers from around the world flock to test themselves and their cars against the famed Indianapolis Motor Speedway and their fellow competitors.

Once the race begins, so does its lap-by-lap danger and drama. Any small mistake, either on the track or in the pits, could not only end a driver’s race but could also result in a tragic on-track crash. The 2023 Indy 500 ended with a last-lap overtake for victory. Would 2024 see a repeat?

The Indy 500 is a collection of stories from the 2024 Indy 500, and while the characters might change, the thrilling storylines and themes persist year after year at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.

Don’t Pull Your Sister’s Hair is the story of Sam Flood Jr.—the boy who didn’t speak until he was five has become a man who wants to tell stories for a living.

Sam Flood was born on January 1, 1984, two weeks late. Walking and running at ten months, he didn’t speak until age five. “From the outset, Sam seemed to have his own idea for how life should be,” writes his father in the opening chapter, in which Sam pieces together his memories with stories told by his family to describe what it was like for Sam to express himself, from pulling his sister Eliza’s hair to wandering to Häagen-Dazs at age three.

Sam’s inability to speak concerned his parents, who consulted doctors to figure out what was wrong. One specialist said Sam would never graduate from high school, let alone go to college. Turning to writing, reading, and his own sense of humor to cope with constant bullying for his differences, Sam proved them wrong, earning a BA from Mitchell College in Connecticut.

Any family can find hope in Sam’s story. Anyone who feels different, misunderstood, bullied, or unfairly treated in life can find light in the way Sam charted his course. This is a story of neurodiversity, but it’s not just for people dealing with ADHD, autism, or any other diagnostic label, because everyone has unique ways of thinking, processing, and behaving. 

Don’t Pull Your Sister’s Hair is about the moments where neurodiversity creates opportunity. It’s the story of what’s possible.

The country is in chaos. Everywhere you look, it seems America has lost its collective mind. 

This mass formation psychosis has disconnected the public from the truth and each other. Anxiety is a pandemic, and few have little faith in any of our institutions, not knowing what to believe. Our constitutional protections as citizens are under attack. 

The situation we find ourselves in is not a result of a miscalculation but a planned deconstruction of the country by our enemies. This attack has been largely carried out with weapons of misinformation and disinformation from the media, our government, social media, and nongovernmental organizations. 

The citizenry of this country must regain a natural skepticism and question everything, resisting the temptation to trust the government to do everything for us. We must restore our mental autonomy and ability to think for ourselves instead of being told what to think. 

America’s Systemic Psychosis provides the diagnosis of our problem, explains how the current psychosis and disconnect from the truth has come to pass, and the steps we all need to take to get our minds back, finding sanity and stability once again.

In the battle between the stifling Dragon and the boundless GOAT each person longs to be, which force will prevail?

Individuals often struggle between their primitive, protective “Dragon” brain and their desire to live a full and vibrant GOAT (Greatest of All Time) life. Most people fall prey to the domineering Dragon, punching the clock, settling for “good enough,” and watching their dreams fade to grey. When the world seems heavy and the days seem long, the Dragon is winning. But it doesn’t have to be that way. 

Anyone can transform the tragedy of a bland life by tending to their inner GOAT: that unique and incredible version of themselves that wants to write the story of their life, in their own words, with their own adventures. Each person’s GOAT is like none other. It strives to live a happy, successful and free life, always in control, clear on its purpose and the meaningfulness of each day. 

In The Dragon and the GOAT, Rebecca shows how to discern if one’s Dragon is winning and whether their GOAT has been hidden away, just waiting to be noticed and given permission to pursue that which they truly want out of life. 

Through a guided series of strategies, individuals can learn how to tame the Dragon and limit its ability to hold them back from reaching their fullest potential. At the same time, she teaches individuals how to scale up their GOAT-ness by taking small steps towards that magnificent future they want but, for various reasons, haven’t stepped into – yet.

Every day, there is a winner and loser between the Dragon and the GOAT. Which one will you feed?

In Work in Progress, Dr. Abbie Maroño debunks the pervasive myth that shame is the antithesis of empowerment, revealing how, if understood and embraced, it can guide us towards our most authentic selves.

Popular media often offers individuals empty promises of empowerment, urging them to become ‘bulletproof.’ It also portrays shame as the antithesis of empowerment. Yet, in reality, shame signals when one’s actions don’t align with their ideal self. By dismissing this signal, they hinder their journey to becoming their best selves. True empowerment arises when one cultivates a healthy relationship with shame.

Work in Progress delves into the science of shame and empowerment, equipping people to navigate their feelings of shame and transition into a state of empowerment. While many books on empowerment are well-intentioned, they often overlook or misinterpret the science behind individuals’ experiences of shame, how they reconcile their self-perception with their surroundings, and how they achieve empowerment amidst its elusive definition. This work challenges the idea that empowerment is exclusively a feminist concept reserved for women. It underscores that empowerment is universal, accessible to all, no matter who they are.

According to Master-certified life coach and Le Cordon Bleu trained chef Molly Zemek, untangling food’s role as a necessary source of nourishment and emotional comfort may be a complicated process, but it is an essential part of personal healing.

Her passion for eating and cooking led to her feeling out of control around food and took its toll on her mental and physical health.

Once Molly discovered the reasons behind her internal battle with food and herself, she was able to help countless others investigate their relationship with food—empowering them to act without sacrificing the pleasure in eating. Her approach, detailed within Decoding Your Emotional Appetite, offers a unique perspective on food and wellness for anyone seeking to better understand their eating habits. 

Decoding Your Emotional Appetite addresses the many reasons people eat—beyond fuel. With the lessons she learned from her own weight-loss journey, and those of her clients, Molly Zemek helps health and food enthusiasts identify what’s at the heart of their eating, in order to create the relationship they want with food and themselves.

La vida en Estados Unidos se ha fracturado, tanto en público y en privado, a través de grietas de ira e incivilidad cada vez más amplias. 

La intensidad del desacuerdo entre los estadounidenses amenaza el bienestar de la nación, presentándose como una falta de respeto y desconfianza en la política, la cultura y el dialogo. La confusión, la frustración y el odio impregnan la política, las interacciones en las redes sociales y las noticias. La disfunción y la desconfianza también aparecen en las calles y en las mesas.

Es urgente que los estadounidenses se unan. ¿Pero cómo? Los encuestadores y estrategas políticos Ed Goeas, republicano, y Celinda Lake, demócrata, llevan más de treinta años trabajando juntos en su innovadora encuesta conjunta Battleground y comparten el estetoscopio para tomar el pulso al público estadounidense. En sus muy respetadas y ampliamente citadas encuestas Battleground, formulan preguntas y obtienen respuestas que nos dicen lo que la gente piensa y siente sobre los temas más acuciantes del momento. 

Aunque a menudo utilizan resultados relevantes de sus encuestas en este libro para ilustrar sus argumentos, Cuestión de Respeto no trata de encuestas ni contiene un antídoto mágico para los males de Estados Unidos. Por el contrario, se trata de un recurso político que describe de forma convincente cómo ha llegado la nación a este punto y, lo que es más importante, hacia dónde debe dirigirse y qué podría hacer falta para ello. Aunque Ed es republicano y Celinda demócrata, han cruzado la gran divisoria para defender que la única forma de que Estados Unidos salga de este lío es mediante el respeto mutuo. Afirman que el respeto es la base sobre la que podemos volver a confiar unos en otros como estadounidenses.

Successful people do not avoid failure, but rather use it as a steppingstone to reach their goals.

For too long people have been defeated by the idea that life stops when you fail. In The Art of Doubling Down, author Anthony Michael Russo turns this idea on its head, proving that failure is far from the end of the road. 

The Art of Doubling Down highlights stories of successful people who experienced failure and leveraged it as a learning opportunity to become stronger and more resilient.

Through these inspirational stories and practical tips, individuals can learn how to transform their fear of failure into motivation to face challenges head-on. Theorists will become practitioners who are ready to take on life with a new outlook. And discover how to identify the lesson inside every failure that paves the way towards success in business, life, and finding ultimate happiness.

Money impacts every facet of life. And constant money related concerns have a negative impact on a person’s overall health and well-being. While money does not buy happiness, financial security can reduce stress and make life much easier to navigate. 

Mindful and Intentional Money Management takes people to the root of their money management behavior that has been formed by their money scripts (long held beliefs and perspectives on money that one has learned throughout life), personality, habits, attitude, and values. Dr. Simpson presents three action plans to build a solid financial foundation that include helping readers know where they’re going (setting goals), know where they are (creating a financial snapshot), and learn/play/execute (bridging the gap between their goals and financial snapshot).

Part 1 introduces the SMARTER goal system to guide readers to set mindful and intentional financial goals. In Part 2, readers compare their income and expenses, assets and debt, and debt-to-income ratio to determine their current net worth. This provides their financial snapshot. Part 3 instructs readers on how to plan and execute strategies to make behavior changes that lead to lasting change and progress that support a secure financial future.

Readers will identify and eliminate poor money management behaviors and replace them with new habits that are sustainable and aligned with their value system and goals. The power of habits and creating muscle memory will automate money management decisions and make the change in behavior much easier. The strategies offered here can be life changing when applied.

What happens when someone gets fired from their church?

One day in the Spring of 2017, Pastor Kyle Isabelli was brought into his supervisor’s office at his church and to his complete surprise, was told “he wasn’t a good fit” as the youth pastor of the church and was fired from his job. This sent Kyle into a process of navigating being fired, dealing directly with the pain caused by this experience, and figuring out his next steps in life and ministry. 

Through this traumatic experience, Kyle prayed, read, sought wisdom and journaled, which in turn, helped him process his pain, regain his purpose and persevere through one of the most challenging seasons of his life. 

Over time, he’s realized that he’s not alone. Far too many pastors, church staff and church members have struggled immensely when they experience a church firing. So, he’s sharing his story and wisdom to help and encourage others as they are Refined by the Fire(d).

Now, as a Senior Pastor since January 2020, Kyle has a greater passion to create healthy staff cultures and come alongside those in the Church, whether staff or church members, to help them process pain, regain purpose and persevere through their own church firing.
