Take Good Care: Finding Your Joy in Compssionate Caregiving
by Cynthia OrangeIn a time when tens of millions of people provide care for family members, older adults, and people with special needs, we should all be experts at it. Instead, we often struggle with caring for others while taking care of ourselvesIn a time when tens of millions of people provide care for family members, older adults, and people with special needs, we should all be experts at it. Instead, we often struggle with caring for others while taking care of ourselves. In Take Good Care, author Cynthia Orange brings together compelling testimonies from a wide range of caregivers, advice from leading experts in the field, and her own hard-won wisdom to capture the subtle differences between caretaking and caregiving. With a foreword by Susan Allen Toth, the critically acclaimed author of No Saints around Here: A Caregiver’s Days, this book shows us how and why caring for each other can be a mutually rewarding experience. It’s easy to become overinvolved in another person’s life and needs when giving care. Feeling burdened with expectations and resentments in a codependent relationship hinders a sense of joy, purpose, and engagement. Relationships require empathy and boundaries; with them, a codependent caretaker can transform into an intentional, self-aware, and compassionate caregiver.
Take It Back: Reclaiming Biblical Masculinity—the Heart and Strength of Being a Man
by Dr. Tim Clinton Max DavisOur culture is determined to redefine masculinity as something it was never meant to be. The American Psychological Association asserts that &“traditional masculinity is psychologically harmful.&” Many agree that &“forcing men to behave in accordance with the worst stereotypes of manliness harms them, and it harms others.&” But is the answer then to marginalize and feminize men? Despite culture&’s determination to redefine masculinity, the great heart cry of our day is for men to rise up and take back their rightful place. It&’s a cry that echoes deep in the soul and from all ends of our society, and particularly from the women who love their fathers, husbands, brothers, and sons. Most women want their men to be honored and to stand up and be men. Men have faltered and lost a lot of influence and territory. The good news is that for many who struggle there is often a daily yearning to make it right.The reality is, masculinity is not and never was &“toxic.&” Tim Clinton, president of the American Association of Christian Counselors (AACC), challenges readers to reject culture&’s redefinition and seek biblical examples of true manhood. Fast-paced, filled with relevant biblical and contemporary stories of godly men like David, Nehemiah, George Foreman, and Tim Tebow, Take It Back empowers men to be who God created them to be and to impact the culture that is in desperate need of their influence. Readers will find encouragement and affirmation that they matter as men, that they can be difference-makers in their circles of influence and have a positive impact on the culture. They will find grace for their shame over past mistakes and find the ability to move forward. This book will help you find encouragement and affirmation that you matter as a man, that you can be a difference-maker in your circle of influence and have a positive impact on the culture. You will find grace to overcome your shame over past mistakes and find the ability to move forward.

Take It Philosophically \ Tómalo con filosofía (Spanish edition): Manual de florecimiento personal
by Andrea Colamedici Maura GancitanoPhilosophy is much more practical than you think, and TAKE IT PHILOSOPHICALLY/Tomalo con filosofia opens the heart and mind so much that there is no better remedy in these uncertain and complicated times. This book will teach the reader how to apply the philosophy of such titans of philosophy as Aristotle, Kierkegaard, Marx and others to our daily lives.Taking a cue from the most ancient schools, this multifaceted book shows us how philosophy can still powerfully impact our lives. Not philosophy intended as an intellectual amusement, but as a serious game conducted on our existence and our path. Philosophy as a bridge to cross and not a house to live in, as an art of living harmoniously, as an education and training of oneself to blossom in our most composite and true self, to find our place in the world. It is precisely this approach that makes "Take it philosophically" an incomplete map to enter the labyrinth of the world. A compass that does not point north. A road that leads nowhere. A series of pages bound and held together by a cover, but also a set of botanical instructions and an exercise in imagination. All with one purpose: to teach you to flourish.It is a book that keeps the promise made in the title: it allows you to "take it philosophically" even in the way you read it, choosing the reading path that suits you best. You can read it as if it were a normal book, from start to finish, or you can follow the instructions that you find at the end of each chapter, where you will be asked to continue in a different point in the text. Depending on your choices, your path will be different; a bit like in life, where the decisions we make determine a large part of our destiny. Take it philosophically is a path towards what the authors call "personal flowering", and you can reread it several times, finding a different book each time.

Take It Too Far: Abundant Life, Boundless Love, Unending Grace
by Jess ConnollyJess speaks about this phrase as a mantra in her personal faith and relationships. Before her husband stands to preach, she always tells him to “take it too far.” When she is burned out on work and ministry, she reminds herself to “take it too far.” This motto of extravagant grace, wild love, and life-altering faith is one that we see readers resonating with and being excited by.

They attend conferences, volunteer in their communities, are leaders and servants in their church. The message of “Take it too far” is one that has defined the season of life that Jess and her family are in, and could very well define the next season for many of her readers.

Take the Lead: Motivate, Inspire, and Bring Out the Best in Yourself and Everyone Around You
by David Gergen Warren Bennis John David Mann Betsy Myers"Why is it that some people challenge us and motivate us to rise to our best abilities, while others seem to drain our energy and spirit? What is that particular quality certain people have that causes those around them to engage fully and feel connected?" You are a leader. You do not need to be in a boardroom, on a battlefield, or on a ballot to have a profound impact on everyone around you. In this life-changing book, Betsy Myers--senior adviser to two US presidents and former executive director of Harvard's Center for Public Leadership--demonstrates how each of us has opportunities to take the lead every day and shares seven core principles that will enable us to be more productive, engaged, and successful. From the Oval Office to the playground, cabinet meetings to kitchen tables, in public life and private, Betsy Myers has seen firsthand the emergence of a new leadership model where having all the answers up front is less important than asking the right questions, where strength is derived less from the power you wield than from how you make the people around you feel. With personal stories from her time in government, in academia, and on the campaign trail, as well as her experiences as a wife, daughter, and mother, Myers helps all of us learn to set the right priorities for ourselves; to connect on a deeper level with the people around us; to uncover problems early when they are still easy to fix; to collaborate with those whose points of view are different from our own; and to push through our fears and live our most authentic lives. Myers demonstrates that more than simply making people feel good, this kind of leadership can have a profound effect on the results achieved: it is how initiatives are launched, profits are made, and work gets done. Personal, practical, and profoundly inspiring, Take the Lead is a book for anyone who wonders where all the great leaders have gone. Betsy Myers helps us see that true leadership is all around us--and within us.

Take the Risk: Learning to Identify, Choose, and Live with Acceptable Risk
by Ben Carson Gregg LewisNo risk, pay the cost. Know risk, reap the rewards. In our risk-avoidance culture, we place a high premium on safety. We insure our vacations. We check crash tests on cars. We extend the warranties on our appliances. But by insulating ourselves from the unknown—the risks of life—we miss the great adventure of living our lives to their full potential. Ben Carson spent his childhood as an at-risk child on the streets of Detroit, and today he takes daily risks in performing complex surgeries on the brain and the spinal cord. Now, offering inspiring personal examples, Dr. Carson invites us to embrace risk in our own lives. From a man whose life dramatically portrays the connection between great risks and greater successes, here are insights that will help you dispel your fear of risk so you can dream big, aim high, move with confidence, and reap rewards you’ve never imagined. By avoiding risk, are you also avoiding the full potential of your life? The surgery was as risky as anything Dr. Ben Carson had seen. The Bijani sisters—conjoined twins—shared part of a skull, brain tissue, and crucial blood flow. One or both of them could die during the operation. But the women wanted separate lives. And they were willing to accept the risk to reach the goal, even against the advice of their doctors … As a child on the dangerous streets of Detroit, and as a surgeon in operating theaters around the world, Dr. Ben Carson has learned all about risk—he faces it on a daily basis. Out of his perilous childhood, a world-class surgeon emerged precisely because of the risks Dr. Carson was willing to take. In his compelling new book, he examines our safety-at-all-costs culture and the meaning of risk and security in our lives. In our 21st-century world, we insulate ourselves with safety. We insure everything from vacations to cell phones. We go on low-cholesterol diets and buy low-risk mutual funds. But in the end, everyone faces risk, like the Bijani twins did with their brave decision. Even if our choices are not so dramatic or the outcome so heartbreaking, what does it mean if we back away instead of move forward? Have we so muffled our hearts and minds that we fail to reach for all that life can offer us—and all that we can offer life? Take the Risk guides the reader through an examination of risk, including: • A short review of risk-taking in history. • An assessment of the real costs and rewards of risk. • Learning how to assess and accept risks. • Understanding how risk reveals the purpose of your lives.
