How God Makes MenTen Epic Stories. Ten Proven Principles. One HugePromise for Your Life.

Patrick Morley

An inspiring practicuum in character development for men--delivered by acategory pioneer In a largely post-Christian era, many men arrive in marriage, fathering and on the jobwith few if any positive role models to learn from. So how does a contemporary believerlearn to be a man of God? Dr. Patrick Morley mentors men every week who tell him theydon't have relationships with other, more mature men, and they don't know where to findthem. In How God Makes Men, Morley delivers on his premise--that God most oftenmakes great men in the company of other men, which is why so much of the Bible is acollection of detailed character studies. By allowing the men of Scripture to "disciple"them, today's man can see character formation in action, and learn how to cooperatewith God's ways even in life's most challenging circumstances. He introduces the readerto ten Bible "heroes", then shows how to apply their stories for long-term results: apowerful life transformed by God.STORY DRIVEN, OUTCOME-ORIENTED: The author draws readers in with personalinsights, Bible exposition, and the stories of contemporary men who are in the processof character formation by the challenges God allows in their lives.

PERFECT FOR SMALL GROUPS: Comes with easy-to apply teaching format andchapter discussion questions.

EXTENSIVE NETWORK: Man in the Mirror Ministries has impacted 10 million menworldwide, distributed eight million books, and in 2009 trained 30,000 church leaders inmen's ministry.

MEDIA REACH: The author's daily radio program is carried on 300 stations. His weeklyonline Bible study is followed by more than 5,000 men in all fifty states. His websitereceives 350,000 unique visitors annually, with 30,000 opt-in weekly email subscribers.

The Power of a Half HourTake Back Your Life Thirty Minutes at a Time

Tommy Barnett

Every person can have an impact in multiple areas of life through intentional,30-minute investments of focused time. The simple but profound truth The Power of a Half Hour reveals is that just abouteverything that unfolds in life--for good and bad--depends on how the small incrementsof time in daily life are managed. The author shows, through his own stories and those ofothers, the impact of a 30-minute focus on marriage and other relationships, work,education, artistry, recreation, ministry--the list goes on and on. The book blendsinspirational stories, relevant biblical principles, and pragmatic instruction to motivatereaders to take a fresh look at their spiritual development and personal goals todetermine how use of short time blocks is hindering or advancing progress. The coremessage of the book is easy to grasp and can produce immediate rewards in personalhabits; marriage, family and other relationships; spirituality and personal peace; jobchallenges; finances; health; and more. Author Barnett firmly believes it only takes 30minutes to make a mark on the world and fulfill a destiny. Half an hour can turn a visioninto reality, but that will only happen when time is used to its full advantage.INSTANTLY TRANSFERABLE CONCEPT: Anyone can apply this game-changing ideato whatever area of life that needs attention and growth.

The Good News About Marriage

Shaunti Feldhahn

What most Christians believe--and church leaders repeat--about the divorce rateand marital success among church goers is wrong. Not just wrong, but damagingto marriages and discouraging to millions. The facts will generate buzz, bringhope, and permanently reshape assumptions among the faithful. Best-selling author Shaunti Feldhahn marshals over seven years of investigativereporting and research to bust extremely destructive myths about the rate of divorce inthe church. In actuality, that divorce rate--commonly assumed to be at 50%, and nearlyidentical to rates outside the church--is significantly lower. Common assumptions aboutthe low percentage of happy marriages and the high rates of failed relationships amongthe remarried are also in error. The truth is that marriages are far stronger, far happier,and staying together at much higher rates than most realize. For example, the overallcurrent divorce rate is closer to 35%, the rate of divorce in the church is probably closerto 20%, and the vast majority of marriages (80%) are not just so-so but happy. Commonmisconceptions to the contrary have injected a sense of futitily among laity and clergythat has been corrosive to relationships and deeply discouraging in the Christiancommunity. The Good News About Marriage offers paradigm-shifting,rigorously-supported information to those who work with couples, and real hope toChristians in a marriage or about to marry.LAUNCHES HER NEXT MAJOR SERIES: This title--published simultaneously with Surprising Secrets of Highly Happy Marriages--marks the launch of Shaunti's next majorseries after the best-selling "Only" books.

PART OF ENVIABLE SALES TRACK: Shaunti has enjoyed tremendous success with For Women Only (more than 1 million sales), For Men Only, co-authored with herhusband, Jeff (500,000 units sold); For Young Women Only (150,000 copies sold), andother titles. She has frequently appeared on Publisher's Weekly Religion Bestseller list.

POWERFUL NETWORK: Shaunti has received assurances that her findings are eagerlyawaited and will be strongly promoted by ministry leaders such as Jim Daly, DennisRainey, Jim Burns, Tim Clinton, Phil Waldrep, Robert Lewis, Lysa TerKeurst, Stevenand Holly Furtick and Andy Stanley. Says mega church pastor Jud Wilhite, "Every pastorin the country is going to be talking about this in his sermons."

CREDIBLE RESEARCH, ENVIABLE CREDIBILITY: Shaunti has earned a sterlingreputation in the CBA for her relationship insights based on nationwide surveys, and herability to integrate her research with a thorough understanding of Scripture.
