    Paperback. Zustand: Fair. Every day in every workplace around the world, people are working with people. What if we had the tools to work better together and build better relationships? RelateAbility is the resource to show you how. Improve your work environment by learning the science around RelateAbility and the TeamRelate Model. Better equip and empower those you influence by learning to more purposefully communicate and purposefully engage with them. RelateAbility is a skill that can be learned and developed. TeamRelate is a behavioral model as well as an app and starts where the traditional personality assessment world leaves off. Once you understand your communication styles along with your core values, the book explores how these relate to others in your world, both at work and at home. Improving our ability to relate to others is the concept of RelateAbility, where we explore the 1:1 dynamic and team dynamic and how to improve each. In light of these concepts, we also explore conflict and engagement in the workforce and bring together the latest industry research on both. Finally we explore Trust, the foundation of any relationship and how improving our RelateAbility increases the trust in our relationships. The concepts in RelateAbility helps build high performing teams in any organizational context and help make work life better for individual contributors and leaders alike.…

    Paperback. Zustand: Good. Angels have been with us in every time and culture, and in many religious traditions. Ask Your Angelsvividly chronicles how they are currently reaching out to every one of us in a totally new way, bridging our physical reality with their pure spiritual energy. From historical writings and widespread contemporary experience that includes their own workshops, the authors show us how we can draw on the power of angels to reconnect with our lost inner selves and to achieve our goals, whether they be better relationships, healing an illness, or recovery from addiction To align with the angelic energy field, you will use five simple steps, as well as exercises, meditations, and visualizations, to learn how to talk with your angels-in your mind, in letters, in dreams, on a computer-and ask their guidance in matters from the inspired to the mundane. From Gabriel, Michael, Raphael, and Uriel to the angels of birth and death, from the Earth Angel to the guardian or companion angel who is your personal teacher, comforter, and intimate friend, this guide will introduce you to humor, wisdom, and companionship that come from contact with angels, for they are a doorway to the Divine within us.…

    Paperback. Zustand: Good. Is your spirit faithful but your flesh flabby? Has your Temple of the Holy Spirit begun to creak and crumble? Then let Fit for Eternal Life show you how to build it up again.Most any workout book can help you bulk up or slim down, but only here will you find a truly Christian approach to physical fitness.

By Him we were ï 1/2ï 1/2ï 1/2wonderfully madeï 1/2ï 1/2ï 1/2 as creatures corporal and spiritual.

Dr. Vost explains the basic principles of strength and endurance training in a way you can understand (even if you haven't been in a gym for years ï 1/2ï 1/2ï 1/2 or ever), and then helps you assemble an effective, personalized workout program that can be performed in as little as twenty minutes per week, leaving you plenty of time (and energy) to be an active Christian parent, spouse, and disciple.Fit for Eternal Life also provides: A revolutionary understanding of fitness as a virtue; how building muscle can build virtue and vice-versaWays to make your workouts an opportunity to practice prayer, meditation, and meritorious sufferingSpecial guidance for women, older persons, and teens.

    Paperback. Zustand: Good. In the 1920s, thousands of white migrants settled in the Los Angeles suburb of South Gate. Six miles from down-town and adjacent to Watts, South Gate and its neighboring communities served as L.A.'s Detroit, an industrial belt for mass production of cars, tires, steel, and other durable goods. Blue-collar workers built the suburb literally from the ground up, using sweat equity rather than cash to construct their own homes. As Becky M. Nicolaides shows in My Blue Heaven, this ethic of self-reliance and homeownership formed the core of South Gate's identity. With post-World War II economic prosperity, the community's emphasis shifted from building homes to protecting them as residents tried to maintain their standard of living against outside threats - including the growing civil rights movement - through grassroots conservative politics based on an ideal of white homeowner rights. As the citizens of South Gate struggled to defend their segregated American Dream of suburban community, they fanned the flames of racial inequality that erupted in the 1965 Watts riots.…
