Risk
By Kenny Luck

      Predictability, control, safety, comfort; Jesus challenges God's man to throw all those words out the window, because when it comes to your faith, all the energy spent eliminating risk from your life actually becomes a barrier to progress in your spiritual journey.

      Risk asks two questions: Are you willing to trust God with everything and, do you dare let Jesus take control of your life? Risk is for men who are ready to go to the next level in their faith- and ready to say goodbye to playing it safe when it comes to radically trusting their savior. Ken Blanchard, co-author of The One-Minute Manager, says this book is "Certain to inspire readers who long to give their all to a mighty cause, but who might miss the message if it were presented in a less passionate way."

      Kenny Luck is president and founder of Every Man Ministries and is the men's pastor at Saddleback Church in Lake Forest, California.

Just Walk Across the Room
By Bill Hybels

      What if you knew that by simply crossing the room and saying hello to someone you could change that person's life forever? Just a few steps to make an eternal difference. It has nothing to do with methods and everything to do with taking a genuine interest in another human being. All you need is a heart that's in tune with the Holy Spirit and a willingness to venture out of your circle of comfort into another person's life.

      Just Walk Across the Room brings personal evangelism into the twenty-first century. Bill Hybels shows how you can participate in the model first set by Jesus, who stepped down from heaven 2,000 years ago to bring hope and redemption to broken people living in a fallen world. Your journey is not as dramatic, but it can have a life-changing impact for someone standing a few steps away from you- and for you as well.

      Max Lucado says," When Bill speaks, I listen. When he writes, I read. He has a unique blend of loving leadership. Heed his words!"

      Bill Hybels is the founding and senior pastor of Willow Creek Community Church in South Barrington, Illinois.

Perpetual Motivation
By Dave Durand

      Dave Durand is a professional speaker and motivator who has trained over a hundred- thousand people. In this book, Durand walks you step by step through the "formula for motivation". He goes beyond the feel-good situations and gets to the heart of what really motivates you and keeps you motivated, perpetually. He shows the reader that highly motivated people use a strategy for success that does not involve any more effort than they already invest. He demonstrates that motivation is more about strategy and focus than about effort.

      Olympic gold medalist, Dan Jansen says, "Perpetual Motivation cuts to the core of what really motivates top performers."
