Sinopse

In a world of shifting alliances and hidden agendas, power is the ultimate currency. Those who possess it can shape the destiny of nations, while those who lack it are left at the mercy of those who do.

But what is power, truly? Is it simply the ability to control others, or is it something more? And what are the consequences of wielding power?

This book delves into the nature of power, exploring its different forms and manifestations. It examines the corrupting influence of power and the responsibility of those who wield it. It also explores the human condition, our hopes and dreams, our fears and insecurities, and our search for meaning and purpose in a world that is often confusing and chaotic.

Ultimately, this book is about the choices we make. We all have the power to choose how we use our power. We can choose to use it for good or for evil. We can choose to build up or to tear down. We can choose to create or to destroy.

The choice is ours.

This book is a must-read for anyone who wants to understand the nature of power and its role in human affairs. It is a thought-provoking and challenging book that will stay with you long after you finish reading it.

    “Naeymi's mesmerizing narration takes listeners into the heart-stopping intrigue and action of nations at war and into the souls of women with cool demeanors and spines of steel.” —AudioFileThe incredible untold story of four women who spun the web of deception that helped win World War II.Betty MacDonald was a 28-year-old reporter from Hawaii. Zuzka Lauwers grew up in a tiny Czechoslovakian village and knew five languages by the time she was 21. Jane Smith-Hutton was the wife of a naval attaché living in Tokyo. Marlene Dietrich, the German-American actress and singer, was of course one of the biggest stars of the 20th century. These four women, each fascinating in her own right, together contributed to one of the most covert and successful military campaigns in WWII. As members of the OSS, their task was to create a secret brand of propaganda produced with the sole aim to break the morale of Axis soldiers. Working in the European theater, across enemy lines in occupied China, and in Washington, D.C., Betty, Zuzka, Jane, and Marlene forged letters and “official” military orders, wrote and produced entire newspapers, scripted radio broadcasts and songs, and even developed rumors for undercover spies and double agents to spread to the enemy. And outside of a small group of spies, no one knew they existed. Until now. In Propaganda Girls, bestselling author Lisa Rogak brings to vivid life the incredible true story of four unsung heroes, whose spellbinding achievements would change the course of history.A Macmillan Audio production from St. Martin’s Press.

    A timely and compassionate resource that equips religious leaders to engage with the reality of trauma within their congregations.Grounded in both lived experience and theological depth, this guide sheds light on the pervasive impact of sexual, racial, and generational trauma in the US, urging faith communities to become intentional spaces of refuge and restoration. Through a powerful call to "hold space," it offers practical tools for pastors and ministry leaders to walk alongside those carrying deep wounds. It reframes the role of the Church—not merely as a place of spiritual guidance, but as a sanctuary where healing and wholeness can take root. With a focus on embodiment, community, and the sacredness of vulnerability, Sanctuary of Healing provides a vital roadmap for transforming congregations into havens of empathy, resilience, and hope.

    “You have the right to work, but for the work's sake only. You have no right to the fruits of work. Desire for the fruits of work must never be your motive in working. Never give way to laziness, either. 
     
    Perform every action with you heart fixed on the Supreme Lord. Renounce attachment to the fruits. Be even-tempered in success and failure: for it is this evenness of temper which is meant by yoga. 
     
    Work done with anxiety about results is far inferior to work done without such anxiety, in the calm of self-surrender. Seek refuge in the knowledge of Brahma. They who work selfishly for results are miserable.” 
    ― Bhagavad Gita 
     
    This German-language edition of the Bhagavad Gita is a talk between prince Arjuna and his charioteer Krishna. At the start of a war between the Pandavas and Kauravas, Arjuna is filled with great despair about the violence the war will cause in the battle against his own kin. He wonders if he should renounce and seeks Krishna's counsel, whose answers constitute the Gita. Krishna counsels Arjuna to "fulfill his duty to uphold the Dharma" through "selfless action".The Krishna–Arjuna dialogues cover a broad range of spiritual topics, touching upon philosophical issues that go far beyond the war According to some, Bhagavad Gita was written by Lord Ganesha and was told to him by Vyasa.

    THINK! YOUR LIFE DEPENDS ON IT. 
    'Thinking' is what we use to navigate life. It is the lens through which we see the world. Thoughts determine the quality of our lives; they determine its problems and its achievements, Work, success, relationships, happiness, everything depends on the way we think. Yet, have we ever investigated it? Why is our life the way it is? Have we searched for the answers in our own thoughts? 
    It makes sense to periodically review our thinking and thus re-adjust our navigation to achieve the results we seek. When our thoughts are set right, problems are solved and goals achieved. 
    How do we know what we know? How do we verify what we think? How do we improve our thinking? Epistemology or the theory of knowledge helps us. 
    This book analyses thoughts through an interesting amalgamation of such diverse subjects as Indian epistemology, Vedanta and mythology: and Western psychology, logic and literature. 
    Let us review our thoughts. Know how we think and how to improve that thinking. Think right to accelerate life. 
    After all, our life is the story we tell ourselves.
