They long to matter. Men are increasingly weary of a worldly culture’s constant assault on their families, their churches, and their manhood. They yearn to do something, to be God’s man, but they remain uncertain of what that something is or even how to begin. They hear the resounding higher call to be God’s man, the man for the day, and to courageously yield to be used by God however He chooses.In The Man for the Day, J. Josh Smith walks through the life of Elijah to reveal ten qualities needed in the pursuit of a life that matters. Smith invites men to boldly lead their families, churches, and communities, to meet the needs of the day for the glory of God. We need not limp through life with the feelings of indifference and insignificance. We need not settle. Our Maker has called us to more. Smith issues the challenge to us all that during these days of increasing hardship and decay, our times need godly men, and our God wants men to be The Man for the Day.

  The Holy Roman Empire - A...

  The Holy Roman Empire traces its origins to a time of shifting power dynamics, spiritual authority, and the enduring legacy of Rome. It was neither wholly holy, Roman, nor an empire in the traditional sense, but it stood as a significant political and spiritual entity in European history for nearly a millennium. The story begins with the fall of the Western Roman Empire in 476 CE, which left a power vacuum in Europe. Centuries later, Charlemagne, King of the Franks, would revive the idea of a Roman imperium in the West. In the year 800, Pope Leo III crowned Charlemagne as Emperor of the Romans, symbolically linking his rule to the legacy of ancient Rome and establishing a precedent for divine sanction of imperial authority. 
  While Charlemagne’s empire did not last beyond his heirs, his imperial title endured in memory and ambition. The true foundations of the Holy Roman Empire, however, are often credited to Otto I, Duke of Saxony, who became King of East Francia in 936. Through military successes and strong alliances with the Church, Otto consolidated his power. In 962, he was crowned Emperor by Pope John XII, an act widely regarded as the formal beginning of the Holy Roman Empire. Otto’s coronation re-established the notion of a Christian emperor in the West and initiated a tradition that would persist for centuries. 
  This early period also marked the beginning of what would become a recurring struggle between secular rulers and the papacy for supremacy. The Investiture Controversy, though it would fully erupt later, had its roots in the growing tensions between emperors who believed they had the right to appoint bishops and popes who insisted on spiritual independence. This rivalry between church and state would shape the development of the empire’s political structure, often blurring the lines between religious and secular authority.

  She's never lost a hostage. Surely she can manage to take care of her sister. 
   
  FBI special agent Julianna Jameson is a top-notch negotiator, but when her much younger sister, Dottie, needs a place to live while she finishes high school, Julianna's skills will be put to the test. 
   
  Former sniper Clay Fox left the army after a tragic incident that he can't get past. Until he can figure out what to do with the rest of his life, he's working as a resource officer at a school. Dottie's school.  
   
  When Julianna is called in to negotiate a courtroom hostage situation involving Clay's sister, he's impressed--and, if he's honest, a bit intimidated--by the calm, capable woman with the dark hair and blue eyes, and invites her to speak at the school.  
   
  But as the anniversary of a school shooting from Julianna's past approaches, it becomes clear that her perfect record is about to be tested and that Dottie is at risk. If Julianna and Clay can't figure out who's behind the attacks, more innocent people will die--and Dottie is next in line. 
   
  "Expertly plotted and relentlessly paced. This high-octane thriller keeps up the momentum through the final page."--Publishers Weekly
