Everyone wants their life to count. We all wish we could make a difference in a hurting world. The good news is that we can. Despite our own brokenness (and, in fact, because of it) each of us can be Jesus's hands and feet on Earth, reaching out to others in real and profound ways. With powerful true stories, illustrations from the life of Christ, and specific activities for readers to engage, DO Something! is a hopeful and practical book that shows how to live out faith in a way that improves people's lives. With transparency and humility, Miles McPherson shares his own shortcomings as a young pastor trying to connect with people in need. Stressing the importance of hurting with people before you can do something for them, McPherson takes readers through the 5 P's of making their lives count: preparation, purpose, pain, power, and passion. By putting into practice the principles found in this book, readers will experience spiritual fulfillment as they see that they can make a real difference in the lives of those around them.

Why are we here? Does life have meaning? Does life have purpose? What is the point of human life? In this book, Make Life Count, these questions are examined and answered. Life does have meaning. Life does have purpose. But it all starts with God. It all starts with God because all life begins and ends with God. Without God, life has no meaning or purpose. God is the creator. Our lives are in his hands. He is the giver of life, the sustainer of life, the restorer of life, and the meaning to life. Apart from God, life is monotonous, wisdom is vain, wealth is futile, and death is final. How do we make life count? We start with God. We stay with God. We submit to God. This is the premise of this book. All life has purpose. Every story is important. Every year matters. Every ticktock of the clock is vital.

One day you will stand before God and give an account of your life. The most important question you can ask yourself now is, will you be ready? Most Christians know their response to the cross determines where they will spend eternity. But did you know that how you’ll spend eternity is determined by what you do in this life? God wants you to discover your calling—He’s not trying to keep you in the dark. In fact, He longs for you to find the meaning and purpose that comes with knowing why you’ve been placed on this earth. In Driven by Eternity, best-selling author John Bevere uses an eye-opening allegory and extensive Scripture to unveil how our daily choices shape our eternal existence. Life beyond the final breath is much more than a destination. Don’t wait until it’s too late. Discover your God-given destiny and make your life count both today and forever.

This is my story of the times when the Lord had caused me to perceive his amazing presence and to know by experience his preservation of my life. It is my desire to share how God is continually at work even today in our lives, in this generation, just as he had in previous generations. I want to share the many wonderful times that he has chosen to reveal his hand to me as he has been involved in the day by day circumstances of my own life. I will also write about the times when I saw him work through me and the ways that he would reveal himself to others. It was in those times when he would help them and things would happen in such a way that they were aware that it wasnt me. His desire is to turn people to look to him because his hand is open to meet their need in a way that only he can.

A clear, practical, first-of-its-kind guide to communicating and understanding numbers and data—from bestselling business author Chip Heath. How much bigger is a billion than a million? Well, a million seconds is twelve days. A billion seconds is…thirty-two years. Understanding numbers is essential—but humans aren’t built to understand them. Until very recently, most languages had no words for numbers greater than five—anything from six to infinity was known as “lots.” While the numbers in our world have gotten increasingly complex, our brains are stuck in the past. How can we translate millions and billions and milliseconds and nanometers into things we can comprehend and use? Author Chip Heath has excelled at teaching others about making ideas stick and here, in Making Numbers Count, he outlines specific principles that reveal how to translate a number into our brain’s language. This book is filled with examples of extreme number makeovers, vivid before-and-after examples that take a dry number and present it in a way that people click in and say “Wow, now I get it!” You will learn principles such as: -SIMPLE PERSPECTIVE CUES: researchers at Microsoft found that adding one simple comparison sentence doubled how accurately users estimated statistics like population and area of countries. -VIVIDNESS: get perspective on the size of a nucleus by imagining a bee in a cathedral, or a pea in a racetrack, which are easier to envision than “1/100,000th of the size of an atom.” -CONVERT TO A PROCESS: capitalize on our intuitive sense of time (5 gigabytes of music storage turns into “2 months of commutes, without repeating a song”). -EMOTIONAL MEASURING STICKS: frame the number in a way that people already care about (“that medical protocol would save twice as many women as curing breast cancer”). Whether you’re interested in global problems like climate change, running a tech firm or a farm, or just explaining how many Cokes you’d have to drink if you burned calories like a hummingbird, this book will help math-lovers and math-haters alike translate the numbers that animate our world—allowing us to bring more data, more naturally, into decisions in our schools, our workplaces, and our society.

First, says Crockett, we're here to learn the basics of eternity -- through study of the Scriptures and fellowship with God and His people. Ultimately, God will examine our post-salvation labors to determine our eternal rank and rewards. Readers will never be the same once they see how -- by changing our lives now -- we can alter our assignments in heaven forever. Fresh, insightful, biblical!
