When it comes to work these days, we're expected to do more with less--but is this nose-to-the-grindstone philosophy the best way to run a business?

While you can't personally transform the corporate culture, you can influence the workplace climate and create meaningful and lasting change. Advocating a steward model of management, "The Optimistic Workplace "reveals how to: Explore personal and organizational purpose--and align them for astonishing results - Overcome resistance and skepticism Build camaraderie and deepen loyalty Increase intrinsic motivation Help your team find meaning in their work Identify goals collaboratively and track progressAnd more Examples from companies large and small demonstrate how this people-centric focus ignites employee potential, increases innovation, and catapults the organization to new levels of performance. Far from being a wish-upon-a-star discussion of workplace happiness, this book presents an array of surprisingly simple strategies as well as practical 30-, 60-, and 90-day plans designed to focus your actions and make employee optimism not just a worthy goal--but a real and measurable result.

Life is filled with hard, unexpected, unwanted, and uncharted paths. It's filled with challenges that make us wonder if God is really guiding our lives. Does He still care about us? Is He really good? Is He even there at all? But what if there's another way to look at it? In her book, Wildly Optimistic, Al Carraway offers new methods and perspectives for life's inevitable challenges. With her trademark honesty, optimism, and love for the Lord, she addresses how to stay close to God even when He is silent, how to keep going when too much time passes, and how to be hopeful when it's not what we wanted, when things don't work out, and when we want to give up. Being an optimist doesn't mean being happy all the time or that bad days won't come. It is the knowledge that when hard days do come they won't last and that better ones are coming. It means being proactive in our moments of crumbling and looking for lessons and opportunities and light. With new perspectives on scripture stories and personal trials, Al Carraway will help you better understand the Lord and allow Him the opportunity to show you how great He really is. Because even with the hard and unexpected, with God, we have every reason to be wildly optimistic!

In The School of the Seers, Jonathan Welton demystified the prophetic. In Normal Christianity he laid the groundwork for having a Kingdom Worldview. Then in Eyes of Honor he magnificently unveiled our identity in Christ. In his fourth and newest book, Raptureless; An Optimistic Guide to the End of the World, Jonathan bares his theological teeth. The End Times have become the King of the Sacred Cows for the Modern Church. Jonathan fearlessly treads where most leaders will not and asks questions that many thirst to ask but can't articulate. Questions such as, what does the Bible really say about: A secret rapture of the Church? A Future One-World Ruler? A Future Seven-Year Tribulation? Are we living in the Last Days? Welton's answers to these questions are thoroughly argued and scripturally based. Prepare to be stretched and see the Bible through brand new eyes!

A neurologist who specializes in dementia and memory loss, Dr. Gayatri Devi rewrites the story of Alzheimer's by defining it as a spectrum disorder, affecting different people differently. The Spectrum of Hope grips the reader, humanizes the science, and offers equal parts wisdom and practical advice with skillful ease. But beyond that, it offers real hope.

Much of what Christianity understands and teaches concerning biblical end times is an extremely violent, negative, and fear-based view which promises a strange, moral utopia in the future without modern technology. In this book, the author conveys to his readers a position which is growing rapidly in popularity around the world and seeks to show that today's common perceptions of the last days are misconceptions of Scripture which are easily rectified. When one applies basic rules of biblical interpretation to end times prophecies, it becomes apparent that they were actually fulfilled in the first century, leaving us with the presence of God on Earth and a peaceful, hopeful outlook for the future. The author fervently encourages and challenges the Berean-minded (Acts 17:11) to immerse themselves in this informative work.

In this revised and updated edition of Raptureless, Jonathan Welton has taken a bold step in confronting one of the greatest "sacred cows" of our day: end time theology! Added to this edition is the supplemental book called The Art of Revelation, where the author uses the same thought-provoking, well-studied, forthright, and optimistic arguments as before as he examines thoroughly the book of Revelation. He once again shows his scholarship and ability to communicate on issues pertinent to the issues facing today's Church. His arguments are Scriptural, lucid, simply and powerfully presented. In addition, Jonathan provides fresh historical background for a number of the historical sources that he has quoted. Read it and be challenged. With this much evidence, the reader must make a decision.

Stefanie Wilder-Taylor has never been one to take the easy, conventional route. In her latest work It’s Not Me, It’s You, she unabashedly showcases a life well lived, ignoring all wisdom, but yet somehow, coming out on top. Combining her trademark biting wit and straightforward common sense, the anticipated comedic memoir delivers outrageous tales from all periods of her life and family history. From Taylor’s outlook on working hard (audition for a game show instead) to getting her husband to propose (forget The Rules: try nagging and physical violence) these stories venture beyond daycare, sure to entertain both parents and non-parents alike. Covering a wide range of topics that explore the anxiety, frustration, and exhaustion that accompany the rewarding, comical, awe-inspiring, and life-altering roles of parent, teenager, wife, and daughter, It’s Not Me, It’s You offers readers an escape, empathy, and plenty of laughs.

A compelling call to arms to reinvigorate our vision of Canada's place in the world, from one of the best of our new generation of public intellectuals.Why do Canadians think so small? "We're a serious country. But our clout-we don't use it," says Michael Byers, who argues it is time for a clear-eyed appreciation of our strengths and weaknesses, of all we have and all we could be. Instead of emulating our increasingly isolated neighbour, Byers says we should be advancing the Canadian model, an idealistic, fiscally prudent, socially progressive vision of foreign policy that has never looked so good.Playing against George Grant's seminal Lament for a Nation, Intent for a Nation is his informed and opinionated overview of where Canada stands in the world and what aggressive and progressive social, environmental, and governmental policies are needed to carry the country forward in an ever more competitive and volatile world.
