Be Intolerant: Because Some Things Are Just Stupid
by Ryan Dobson Jefferson Scott"Whatever" is now the password into civilized youth culture. Alarming numbers of Christians eighteen to twenty-five years old believe that there is no such thing as absolute truth. Yet, Ryan Dobson proclaims, we can't even function if we believe that everything is relative. In his first book, the impassioned youth speaker explains God's establishment of absolutes, using relevant examples to awaken Christians to the world's desperate hunger for absolute truth -- and the church's duty to proclaim it. OUR GENERATION IS BEING DESTROYED BY RAMPANT TOLERANCE. Somebody's cheating at school? "Well, that's his business. " Your roommate wants an abortion? "I wouldn't do it, but hey, it's her life. " Accepting everything means you believe in nothing. When it comes to right and wrong, sitting on the fence won't get you-or the people you love-anywhere. Passiveness is not love. Love is getting in people's face and telling them the truth. Finally, someone has the courage to point out that some ideas are simply stupid. Honest and unflinching, Ryan Dobson will show you how to back up your beliefs and be intolerant-in love.

Be Love Now: The Path of the Heart
by Ram Dass Rameshwar Das“May Ram Dass’s intimate and heartfelt account inspire others to find their own path of true love, compassion, and joyful service.” —Thich Nhat Hanh, author of The Heart of Buddha’s TeachingRam Dass’s long-awaited Be Love Now is the transformational teaching of a forty-year journey to the heart. The author of the two-million-copy classic Be Here Now and its influential sequel Still Here, Dass is joined once more by Rameshwar Das—a collaborator from the Love Serve Remember audio recordings—to offer this intimate and inspiring exploration of the human soul. Like Deepak Chopra’s Book of Secrets, the Dalai Lama’s Art of Happiness, and Jon Kabat-Zinn’s Coming to Our Senses, Ram Dass’s Be Love Now will serve as a lodestar for anyone seeking to enhance their spiritual awareness and improve their capacity to serve—and love—the world around them.“Be Love Now, like Be Here Now, is equal parts memoir and manual of meditation. It’s hard to believe the two books are separated by more than thirty years. The writing in Be Love Now is as fresh and charged with insight as the earlier one.” —Los Angeles Times“If the West even approaches enlightenment in the Twenty-first Century, there’s no way to overestimate the role of Ram Dass in making it happen. He planted seeds that turned into a million trees; if and when they blossom, they will exude the fragrance of his teaching forever.” —Marianne Williamson“Be Love Now reveals the true meaning of yoga, the union of the open heart—this is required reading for anyone who follows a path of devotion.” —Daniel Goleman, New York Times–bestselling author of Emotional Intelligence

Be Mean About the Vision: Preserving and Protecting What Matters
by Ed Stetzer Shawn LovejoyAlmost every organization has a vision. Few ever accomplish it. Even after short-term success in it, fewer stay true to it over time. Be Mean: Relentlessly Protecting the Vision is about regaining or sustaining the trajectory of the vision over time. It's about staying true to the vision. Lovejoy explains that this requires understanding the importance of vision, developing a vision we're willing to die for, and keeping the vision from being compromised or even hijacked. Though many books have been written on the subject of developing mission or vision statements, there have been few written on how to sustain or protect the vision over time. Shawn has dealt with hundreds of leaders in ministry and has seen countless struggle with keeping everyone on board with the mission and how to align the rest of the organization with the vision. Shawn Lovejoy walks the church leader through the experiences that have taught him to Be Mean, and shows us a strategy of Relentlessly Protecting the Vision.

Be My Guest
by C. Thomas Hilton"Words, words, words," said Eliza Doolittle in "My Fair Lady", "I'm so sick of words. Words can be tiresome." Jesus' actions spoke louder than words on the cross and in the Lord's Supper. There are about four thousand dialects in the world, and the words used to communicate meaning are often misunderstood. Body language is usually more explicit. "This is my body that is for you. Do this in remembrance of me." (I Cor. 11:24). I hope you will see Jesus Christ in his body language on the cross, in the Lord's Supper, and in these sermons. C. Thomas Hilton First Presbyterian Church Pompano Beach, Florida
