Synopsis A Daring Faith in a Cowardly World by : Ken Harrison

Are you ready to stop wasting time and start turning your mundane life into one of adventure and blessing? Ken Harrison, Chairman and CEO of Promise Keepers, masterfully weaves together powerful stories and deep truths from Scripture to point you to the life for which God has called you. Ask Christians what they expect to happen to them after they die, and most will say they will go to heaven. And they’ll probably say that they will meet Jesus and hope to hear Him say, “Well done good and faithful servant.” But many believers know they are not living up to God’s calling on their lives. In fact, many might even admit their lives don’t honor God at all—at least Mondays through Saturdays. In A Daring Faith in a Cowardly World, Ken Harrison masterfully uses his stories as a Los Angeles police officer in one of the deadliest areas of the country to explain and illustrate deep truths from God’s Word. This isn’t your typical inspirational book—it’s a hard-hitting work that packs a lot of truth into an easy-to-read page-turner. Each chapter starts and ends with a gripping story that has a twist, a “rest of the story” at the end of the chapter, and packs intense biblical truth and wisdom in the middle. You will: Have a clear picture of what being a true follower of Christ looks like and how to become one Gain insightful truths that lead to genuine “Aha!” moments in your life Experience stories you won’t forget and that create a lasting change to your faith Learn what the Bible says about the myriad of issues in today's culture Are you ready to take the first step towards a more courageous and bold life lived in Jesus? In A Daring Faith in a Cowardly World, find the motivation you’ve been longing for.

Synopsis Pro-Child Politics by : Katy Faust

In Pro-Child Politics, Katy Faust has mobilized a collection of experts who apply her children-before-adults approach to their areas of expertise. From porn to debt, foreign policy to religious liberty, each chapter explains how a child-first approach isn’t just nice—it’s a necessity. Contributors explain how the needs of children are being ignored and propose practical, bold reforms that will ensure the next generation will not only survive, but thrive. Life - Dr. Abby Johnson (And Then There Were None, ProLove Ministries) Masculinity - Ken Harrison (Waterstone/Promise Keepers) Femininity - Peachy Keenan (Domestic Extremist) Family - Katy Faust (Them Before Us) Race - Delano Squires (The Heritage Foundation) Gender Ideology - Chris Elston (Billboard Chris) Porn - Jon Schweppe (American Principles Project) The Economy- Christopher Bedford (The Blaze) Taxes - Grover Norquist (Americans for Tax Reform) Debt - Phil Kerpen (American Commitment) Energy- The Honorable Neil Chatterjee ESG/DEI - Justin Danhof (Strive) Religious Liberty - Ashley McGuire (The Catholic Association) Education - Tiffany Justice (Moms for Liberty) Digital Technology - Maria Baer (The Colson Center for Christian Worldview) Environment - Chris Barnard (American Conservation Coalition) National Security- Dan Caldwell (Defense Priorities) Policing- Ari Hoffman (The Post Millennial and Talk Radio 570 KVI) Border Security/Immigration - Lora Ries (The Heritage Foundation) What does pro-child politics require? That every adult prioritizes the rights and well-being of children above their own self-interest. Because the only alternative is for children to sacrifice for adults. And that is a world characterized not only by damaged children, but widespread injustice. No other book on your shelf spans the topics covered in this collection. The diverse subjects addressed in these pages share one commonality: when we believe lies, children are victimized. Pro-Child Politics strips away the thin veneer of adult talking points to spotlight the most overlooked constituency: our children.

Synopsis A Daring Faith in a Hazardous World by : Terry Lindsay

The practical, down-to-earth counsel of this giant of the faith is easily understood and applied to our daily lives.

His example has made me want to be more like him and like Christ.” - Jack Van Impe, JVI Ministries International “The contribution that he has made to the cause of Christ and to the lives of so many is literally beyond description.” - Paige Patterson, President, Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary

Synopsis Victors and Victims by : K R Harrison

Victors & Victims unveils the truth that people who find success and joy in life are those who know who they are and give it, versus those who know what they want and take it. Success in life comes in many different forms. Profitable careers and businesses come to mind, but what about happy marriages, well-raised kids, loyal friendships? Success, no matter what its form, has the same foundations. Mastering them means mastering life. We all have different core passions. Some cry for freedom, some for security; some dwell on the past and some on the future. Our core passions dictate how we communicate and what messages and beliefs we listen to and follow. When you understand your own core passions as well as those of the people around you, you can communicate successfully and form powerful relationships filled with joy and promise. And how you understand yourself, God, and your passions will determine whether you live your life as a victim (always wanting and taking more), or a victor (joyously giving more, thus receiving more). In this book, Ken Harrison draws from his powerful experiences fighting violent criminals as a police officer in Los Angeles, running and selling international companies, and his 24-year marriage to his high school sweetheart in order to give the keys to turning ambition into success.

Synopsis Fear and Trembling by : Soren Kierkegaard

In our time nobody is content to stop with faith but wants to go further. It would perhaps be rash to ask where these people are going, but it is surely a sign of breeding and culture for me to assume that everybody has faith, for otherwise it would be queer for them to be . . . going further. In those old days it was different, then faith was a task for a whole lifetime, because it was assumed that dexterity in faith is not acquired in a few days or weeks. When the tried oldster drew near to his last hour, having fought the good fight and kept the faith, his heart was still young enough not to have forgotten that fear and trembling which chastened the youth, which the man indeed held in check, but which no man quite outgrows. . . except as he might succeed at the earliest opportunity in going further. Where these revered figures arrived, that is the point where everybody in our day begins to go further.

You will learn that spiritual leaders realize their story isn’t the story—it’s all about Jesus point their wives, children, community, and world toward God stumble their way through spiritual leadership rather than doing nothing seek humility rather than striving for perfection refuse to let their sin and shame stop them from leading their family look for adventure in the kingdom of God, not in the world create gospel-centered memories with their wife and children When you begin to understand the bigger picture of God’s purpose for you in your marriage and family, you’ll see that the good news of Jesus makes it possible for you to love and lead without fear and discouragement. Get equipped and encouraged as you become the man God is calling you to be—even when you’re dad tired.
