People today are hungry for God's sure guidance in their churches. But how do they find it? One of the strongest prophetic voices to the church today, Henry Blackaby, helps Christians grasp God's pattern for strengthening their churches, rather than relying on human ideas and methods that leave God on the periphery. They'll learn how to be sensitive individually and corporately to the effort of the Spirit, exploring the trustworthy principles by which the Lord longs to guide each congregation toward its own distinctive mission.

Gossom did not set out to be a groundbreaker. He did not apply to Auburn University with the goal of being the first black athlete to graduate from the almost all-white college. He just knew he wanted to play football-- and he wanted to play football at Auburn. When he was accepted in 1970 and fought for his place on the team, he became a part of history.

Reading As a Way of Life

Heather Cass White's Books Promiscuously Read is about the pleasures of reading and its power in shaping our internal lives. It advocates for a life of constant, disorderly, time-consuming reading, and encourages readers to trust in the value of the exhilaration and fascination such reading entails. Rather than arguing for the moral value of reading or the preeminence of literature as an aesthetic form, Books Promiscuously Readillustrates the irreplaceable experience of the self that reading provides for those inclined to do it. Through three sections--Play, Transgression, and Insight--which focus on three ways of thinking about reading, Books Promiscuously Read moves among and considers many poems, novels, stories, and works of nonfiction. The prose is shot through with quotations reflecting the way readers think through the words of others. Books Promiscuously Read is a tribute to the whole lives readers live in their books, and aims to recommit people to those lives. As White writes, "What matters is staying attuned to an ordinary, unflashy, mutely persistent miracle; that all the books to be read, and all the selves to be because we have read them, are still there, still waiting, still undiminished in their power. It is an astonishing joy."

How to Revolutionize Customer and Employee Engagement with Big Data and Gamification

THE NEW YORK TIMES AND WALL STREET JOURNAL BESTSELLER!

The new secret to driving LOYALTY THAT PAYS

Once revolutionary, loyalty programs designed to differentiate products quickly became commoditized. And yet, billions of dollars are still spent every year on programs that are doomed to fail. These programs, it turns out, don't inspire long-term loyalty. Once a better deal comes along, customers will gladly defect. Can you blame them?

Silicon Valley start-up Bunchball, the pioneer and innovator in gamification, is light years ahead when it comes to the concept of loyalty--and using it to drive business profits and growth. Focusing not only on customer loyalty, but also the loyalty of employees and partners, Bunchball combines behavioral economics, big data, social media, and gamification to inspire loyalty that lasts--from everyone involved in the success of a business.

Now, in Loyalty 3.0, Bunchball founder Rajat Paharia reveals how you can use these same techniques to seize the competitive edge for your business.

Paharia shows you how to create a system powered by human motivation and digital technology that creates ongoing, persistent engagement among customers, employees, and partners. Loyalty 3.0 arms you with everything you need to know in order to build a loyalty and engagement program that drives a sustainable advantage for your business, including:

 * The building blocks of motivation, big data, and gamification necessary for creating a powerful strategy that drives long-term loyalty
 * Case studies from today's most innovative companies that are already driving customer engagement, learning and skill development, and employee motivation with Loyalty 3.0 methods
 * Step-by-step guidance on how to plan, design, build,and optimize your program

Now is the time to abandon your traditional loyalty programs and start taking all your stakeholders seriously--so they will take your company seriously.

Loyalty 3.0 is the game-changing leap you've been waiting for. When you create true loyalty among customers, employees, and business partners, you will generate a sustainable competitive advantage and win in your industry.

Praise for Loyalty 3.0

"Relationships are the single greatest asset for all organizations. Relationships with customers, relationships with employees, relationships with partners. In Loyalty 3.0, Rajat Paharia reveals the new science of relationship building through big data and gamification."--TIM BROWN, CEO, IDEO

"Loyalty 3.0 is filled with major insights and does a brilliant job of grounding the reader in fundamental concepts around motivation, big data, and gamification--building on these concepts through real-world case studies that bring the combinations to life. It finishes with actionable ideas and next steps that enable you to test and operationalize these ideas in your own workplace and personal life." -- BRAD SMITH, CEO, Intuit

"A fascinating insight into how companies are exploiting big data." -- MARK READ, CEO, WPP Digital

"Rajat pioneered the business use of big data and game mechanics to transform the customer experience. A decade before anyone else, he saw that the same techniques that video game designers had used for years--fast feedback, badges, competition, goals, and leveling up--were also incredibly powerful for motivating behavior outside of games, and an industry was born. This book shares his secrets." -- CLARA SHIH, CEO of Hearsay Social, author of The Facebook Era, and board member at Starbucks

"Rajat Paharia comprehensively explains how to create loyalty in the modern world full of data and connectivity. If you want to learn how to motivate and inspire employees, you must read this book." -- DAVE KERPEN, New York Times bestselling auth

How a Leading New York City Health System Mobilized to Battle the Greatest Health Crisis of Our Era

Relentless is the compelling story of how one of America's leading health care systems -- the Mount Sinai Health System in New York City -- mobilized to confront the defining health crisis of our time: the coronavirus pandemic.



This book is based on unprecedented access to internal hospital documents and more than 100 candid interviews with the chief executives of Mount Sinai's hospitals and its Icahn School of Medicine; with physicians and nurses on the front lines throughout the system who pushed themselves to the brink to save lives; with renowned research scientists who urgently worked to decipher the virus and find ways to counter it as quickly and safely as possible; and with brave patients, staff members, and medical students who summoned up their reserves of energy, compassion, dedication, and courage to fight the disease. Relentless closes with an exploration and explanation of lessons learned -- and of what needs to be done, and what is being done, to prepare for future pandemics and other health crises.



Author Deborah Schupack, an acclaimed novelist and journalist, tells this story with the velocity and intensity of a gripping thriller and with the care and detail of great reporting. Her masterful writing is accompanied by unforgettable photographs, many here seen for the first time.



If you read one book about the heroism and fears, the triumphs large and small, the strength and improvisation and daring that the fight against COVID has entailed and required, make it Relentless.

Bob Goff

Lindsey Goff Viducich

Faith in God can be exciting, daring, and fun. Love Does for Kids shares some of the Goffs' wild adventures--from holding a neighborhood parade to writing presidents from around the world to creating a town in the backyard tree. Children will laugh, dream, and be inspired to make a difference for God. As a little boy with a big personality and even bigger dreams, Bob Goff had lots of questions, and they didn't go away when he grew up. It wasn't until he learned just how big and wild and wonderful God is that he began to find answers. Once Bob learned about the deep goodness of God, he got to learn about the great power God gives His kids when they live a life full of love for others. Kids everywhere will love Bob and Lindsey's stories about how love does. With childlike faith, enthusiasm, and great whimsy, young readers will feel instantly connected to a love that acts as much as it feels. Children will walk away with a sense of wonder of how great God is and will feel empowered with things they can do that will make a tangible difference in the world. Bob and his daughter, Lindsey, who lived out many of these faith adventures, offer kids an invitation to get to know God better and to see the world as a place designed to be changed as we put our faith in action. In the same way that Love Does strikes such a deep chord with adults, young readers will experience God in new and thrilling ways and see that living out our faith is certainly not boring! Lindsey Goff Viducich is a teacher with a great love for kids. Her daily interaction with kids helped create a book that is perfectly suited for the attention span and interest of 6- to 10-year-olds. Love Does for Kids features 45 true, humorous, and exciting stories, charming four-color art, and an unforgettable message: that love does. The lessons drawn from the Goffs' stories might just inspire you to be secretly incredible too.

A lyrical and poignant coming-of-age story about one girl's immigration experience, as she moves from Haiti to New York City, by award-winning author Edwidge Danticat.

It is election time in Haiti, and bombs are going off in the capital city of Port-au-Prince. During a visit from her home in rural Haiti, Celiane Espérance and her mother are nearly killed. Looking at her country with new eyes, Celiane gains a fresh resolve to be reunited with her father in Brooklyn, New York.

The harsh winter and concrete landscape of her new home are a shock to Celiane, who witnesses her parents' struggle to earn a living and her brother's uneasy adjustment to American society, and at the same time encounters her own challenges with learning and school violence.

National Book Award finalist Edwidge Danticat weaves a beautiful, honest, and timely story of the American immigrant experience in this luminous novel about resilience, hope, and family.

Miracles, Memories, and the Perfect Marriage of Sports and Television

In this highly entertaining and insightful memoir, one of television's most respected broadcasters interweaves the story of his life and career with lively firsthand tales of some of the most thrilling events and fascinating figures in modern sports.

No sportscaster has covered more major sporting events than Al Michaels. Over the course of his forty-plus year career, he has logged more hours on live network television than any other broadcaster in history, and is the only play-by-play commentator to have covered all four major sports championships: the Super Bowl, World Series, NBA Finals, and the Stanley Cup Final. He has also witnessed first-hand some of the most memorable events in modern sports, and in this highly personal and revealing account, brings them vividly to life.

Michaels shares never-before-told stories from his early years and his rise to the top, covering some of the greatest moments of the past half century--from the "Miracle on Ice"--the historic 1980 Olympic hockey finals--to the earthquake that rocked the 1989 World Series. Some of the greatest names on and off the field are here--Michael Jordan, Bill Walton, Pete Rose, Bill Walsh, Peyton and Eli Manning, Brett Favre, John Madden, Howard Cosell, Cris Collinsworth, and many, many more.

Forthright and down-to-earth, Michaels tells the truth as he sees it, giving readers unique insight into the high drama, the colorful players, and the heroes and occasional villains of an industry that has become a vital part of modern culture.
