Throughout life, most of us have the privilege of coming in contact with certain people who live exceptionally and set inspiring examples in everyday life. This spiritual journal is dedicated to the memory of a young man named Justin Sullivan who did exactly that: He lived an exceptional life and set an incredible example for other people. Justin graduated third in his class at Yukon High School in Yukon, Oklahoma, where he was not only an honor student, but also an honor athlete. Justin had a strong desire to bring glory to the Lord in every aspect of his life. He was named Baseball Player of the Year for the State of Oklahoma on June 2, 2002, and was tragically killed in a freak car accident the following day on his way home from work. Even though his life was short, Justin taught people what it meant to walk with God. The truth is that he lived a life worth following, and his legacy will carry on for generations to come. His example in life, his impact on people and his personal discipline together created a life that truly made a difference to all those who crossed his path.
The Only Leaders Worth* Following explores what makes some leaders successful while others fail. In it, Tim Spiker explains the Who* Not What Principle -that becoming a truly great leader is far more about developing who we are as people than improving what we do. In spite of data, logic, and personal experiences that point to it, few leaders intentionally and consciously order their own leadership development or the leadership development within their organizations by this principle.What lives within the well-developed Who that makes an exceptional leader? To start, it is far more complex than having good moral character. It means addressing our insecurities and drive for self-preservation. It requires investigation into our core assumptions about life and the personal disciplines we exercise. In short, it means becoming Inwardly Sound and Others Focused.While becoming a well-developed Who is challenging, it is both the most important and most efficient path to reaching our potential as leaders. Who our leaders are, rather than what they do, ultimately determines if we will follow them over the long haul...and it will determine if others will follow us as well.
Spend just a few minutes on any of the major social media platforms and you'll find that women are longing for encouragement, hope, purpose, connection, acceptance, and love, but yet, they're not finding that. Instead, they're finding story after story that is centered on fear. Terrorist attacks, cancer-causing foods, political worries-the list goes on. But even without external fears to contend with, women are fighting internal battles about their worth and abilities on a daily basis. Social media encourages people to compare their lives to the ones they see online. Comparison creates a habit of ungratefulness, an attitude of dissatisfaction, and pattern of envy and even judgmentalism. It's no wonder women leave social media feeling worse rather than better. We've got to take charge of this. As women of faith and women in business and ministry, we have an online responsibility. If we want to get the most out of social media, we need to learn how to better contribute ourselves. We can choose to be intentional in what we post, what we share, what we comment on and what we promote. We can also be discerning in what we choose to read and believe online. This book, by social media specialist Jennifer Bennett, is not another "social media strategy" book. Instead, it's a book that invites readers in all seasons of life to be women of integrity who make a difference online and in the lives of others. Women everywhere are online, regardless of how busy they are, and this book helps them be intentional and responsible with their social media activity. This is a book that can be applied to every part of life.

When you're a leader, you have the watch.Through seven deployments commanding sailors in the complex and dangerous world of nuclear submarine warfare, Jon Rennie experienced a deep form of leadership. On a sub, there is no escape. No "after work." No home to commute to. You live and lead side-by-side with the crew, every day.What Rennie didn't realize was how much his time underwater prepared him to lead global industrial businesses and startups across multiple industries.Becoming a leader worth following begins--and ends--with people."This book cuts to the heart of the matter of leadership: it's all about people."

If you want to be a more effective leader, this is the one book you should read this year."Start becoming a better leader today by reading this book."

Exploring themes that preoccupied Albert Camus--absurdity, silence, revolt, fidelity, and moderation--Robert Zaretsky portrays a moralist who refused to be fooled by the nobler names we assign to our actions, and who pushed himself, and those about him, to challenge the status quo. For Camus, rebellion against injustice is the human condition.
A philosophical challenge to the ableist conflation of disability and pain More than 2,000 years ago, Aristotle said: “let there be a law that no deformed child shall live.” This idea is alive and well today. During the past century, Supreme Court Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr. argued that the United States can forcibly sterilize intellectually disabled women and philosopher Peter Singer argued for the right of parents to euthanize certain cognitively disabled infants. The Life Worth Living explores how and why such arguments persist by investigating the exclusion of and discrimination against disabled people across the history of Western moral philosophy. Joel Michael Reynolds argues that this history demonstrates a fundamental mischaracterization of the meaning of disability, thanks to the conflation of lived experiences of disability with those of pain and suffering. Building on decades of activism and scholarship in the field, Reynolds shows how longstanding views of disability are misguided and unjust, and he lays out a vision of what an anti-ableist moral future requires. The Life Worth Living is the first sustained examination of disability through the lens of the history of moral philosophy and phenomenology, and it demonstrates how lived experiences of disability demand a far richer account of human flourishing, embodiment, community, and politics in philosophical inquiry and beyond.
