    Head On - A Memoir

    Larry Csonka ran the football with audacity and authority. He lived his off-the-field life with equal abandon. As part of the NFL's 100th Anniversary, he and his undefeated 1972 Miami Dolphins teammates were named the best team in NFL history. 
     
     
     
    In Head On, Csonka shares how they achieved their legendary Perfect Season. From quitting football at a young age, to his often-combative relationship with Coach Don Shula, to brazen exploits with his NFL pals, Csonka narrates a life that is colorful, unbridled, and thrilling. 
     
     
     
    Csonka found himself hanging out with Burt Reynolds, Dick Butkus, Lee Majors, Joe Namath, and Elvis Presley during his football years. But his moments outside the spotlight reveal the most about this larger-than-life figure—raising critters and a little hell in his formative years on an Ohio dirt farm, early run-ins with the law, confronting thieves with a sawed-off shotgun, taking sniper fire on a USO tour of Vietnam, and being adrift at night on the Bering Sea with gale-force winds raging. 
     
     
     
    Csonka's Head On is a captivating account of grit, grace, and gumption told by an iconic Hall of Famer who continues to gain ground—figuratively, literally, and unapologetically—every day.

    Born to an abusive mother and a drug-dealer father, Ginelle Testa is not exactly set up for success—and her early years are just as troubled as one might expect. By the end of her thirteenth year, she’s started experimenting with alcohol and drugs, has fallen prey to anorexia, and has been sexually assaulted. And that’s only the beginning of her spiral down into addiction and disordered eating. As Ginelle progresses into young adulthood, she hits several substance-related bottoms. In her senior year of college, after blacking out and ending up naked in her dorm’s community shower, she goes to Alcoholics Anonymous to get sober. But steering clear of drugs and alcohol, she discovers, is not a cure-all—she still has a long way to go before she can truly heal. Raw, relatable, and powerful, Testa’s is a riveting tale of climbing up from rock bottom—and learning to make a home in oneself instead of in substances and other people.

    Leading With Love - A Nurse's Story

    In "Leading with Love," Connie Delaney and I, Shelagh Klein, present our heartfelt message, crafted not through AI technology, but from the depths of our heads, hearts, and real-life experiences. This book is a testament to the transformative power of love, written with the conviction that infusing love into our daily conversations can indeed change the world for the better. 
    "Leading with Love" is not just a book; it's a journey into the heart of what it means to connect with one another and our world. It offers hope and a practical roadmap for fostering love and oneness in our lives. Delaney and I share our vision of a world where unity is not just a concept, but a lived reality, recognizing our profound interconnectedness with all beings and the cosmos. 
    We believe that by embodying love in our actions and embracing oneness, we can collectively elevate our consciousness, leading to a more harmonious, sustainable, and loving world. The book is filled with personal stories, practical advice, and inspiring examples, guiding readers through a process of self-discovery and communal awakening. 
    In a time where division and fear are often magnified, "Leading with Love" provides a counter-narrative of hope and unity. It encourages readers to embrace love and oneness in everyday life, challenging them to look beyond differences and act with compassion and empathy. 
    This book is more than a guide; it's an invitation to join a movement of positive change. It reminds us that transforming our world starts with individual acts of love, radiating outwards to reshape the future of our planet and beyond. 
    For those who wish to connect further and explore these concepts in a digital space, you are invited to engage with my digital twin at Conniedelaney.com, where the journey of leading with love continues.

    "In Advent we prepare for the coming of all Love." —Madeleine L'Engle 
     
     
     
    "At the birth of Jesus, an event of cosmic significance by which we humans still mark our calendars, the invisible and visible worlds come together." —Philip Yancey 
     
     
     
    "Help us to realize, as those who love and believe in you that we, too, are pregnant with Christ by the power of the Holy Spirit, and that day by day we are being enlarged." —Luci Shaw 
     
     
     
    The first Christmas sermon preserved in church history was preached by St. John Chrysostom in AD 386, in which he declared, "Behold a new and wonderful mystery!" In this volume, the Christian literary writers of the Chrysostom Society reflect on Advent and Christmastide as a bright and meaningful season of anticipation and glory. Through forty-two readings from the first Sunday of Advent through Epiphany, contributors prepare us in watchful waiting for the coming of Jesus. 
     
     
     
    We enter slowly so that the familiar can astonish us and become wondrous once again. 
     
     
     
    Jesus is born in Bethlehem. But not only there. He is also born in us, that we might bear his presence and impart his goodness to the world.

    Infantry Life - Vietnam's...

    Firefights, mortar attacks, and friendly fire were all part of the experiences of an infantryman in the jungles of the Central Highlands of Vietnam. But bugs, leeches, exhaustion, swamps, accidents, snakes, C-rations, digging in, cutting overhead cover, grief, humor, camaraderie, rain, thirst, impressive weapons, useless weapons, care packages, and much, much more filled up most of the infantryman's one-year tour in Vietnam. 
     
     
     
    Daily life as an infantryman in Vietnam was a completely foreign experience compared to the lives most young American soldiers knew growing up. The war and the jungle saw to that. Soldiers had to cope and adapt. Almost all did. 
     
     
     
    In this book, the author tells many stories of events he personally experienced during his year in Vietnam. Through these stories, he aptly describes the daily life and shared experiences of soldiers in the 4th Infantry Division in the jungles of Vietnam's Central Highlands. 
     
     
     
    Anyone who has a personal connection with someone who served as an infantryman in Vietnam or simply has curiosity about infantry life in Vietnam will better understand, after listening to this book, the answer to the question "What was daily life like for them there?"
