You give a great sermon only to hear, “Someday you'll be a good preacher.” (ouch!) You can respond by setting your heels and continuing to do what is comfortable, or you can learn from your professional superiors, and yes, even from your strongest critics. Becoming a good preacher is like traveling a winding mountain highway, where you are constantly surprised and sometimes terrified by new vistas and perspectives. But in the words of Willie Nelson, you have to be willing to “get on the road again,” because it's a road worth traveling. The future of the church depends on good preaching, because “faith comes from hearing the message, and the message is heard through the word of Christ.” (Romans 10:17) But becoming a good preacher is a most complex task. Someday You’ll Be a Good Preacher follows the long and often painful journey of one working preacher as he developed from a cocky seminarian to a seasoned veteran of the pulpit wars. On his journey up that winding mountain highway, Mast encountered many of the big issues in preaching: balancing theological clarity with personal relevance, interpreting Scripture in a changing culture, coming to absolute clarity on both sermon theme and purpose, shaping sermons to appeal to both left and right brain listeners, insuring that every sermon centers on Christ in a graceful way, preaching with passion in the power of the Holy Spirit, and listening to your spouse and others close to your heart. This is not a “how to” book, but a narrative that describes the journey of one working preacher and the lessons he's learned. Designed for those preachers who are on the road to good preaching (and for those congregants who wish the journey wasn’t so long and slow), it aims to encourage seminarians and those in their first churches. Hoping to prepare growing preachers for those ego-deflating, but ultimately uplifting experiences of devastating criticism that will come every preacher’s way, Mast shares his story so that those experiences will produce growth rather than death in a young preacher. It may also enable some old pros to relive their journey and finally thank God for those awkward, disappointing, sometimes excruciatingly painful moments, when someone suggested that they were not quite the preacher they could be. At bottom, this little book wants to help preachers not only to love their supporters, but also to learn from their critics. Mast says, “I hope that those critics will realize how powerful their words can be—for good and for ill. I have learned much from my critics. That doesn’t mean I always liked them. With words I never wanted to hear, they moved me from my supposed present excellence to another leg of the journey to good preaching.” Spend some time learning the utter importance of continuing your journey, even when the goal seems elusive. It's a long road that may not always go the direction you think it should. But if you continue the journey with faith and perseverance, someday you WILL be a good preacher!

Live boldly and act on your most powerful beliefs with this life-changing guide to faith, positive thinking, and spiritual fulfillment. Pastor Joel Osteen asks everyone to examine what he or she really believes. Why is this important? Because we will become what we believe. Our beliefs will prove either a barrier or vehicle as we strive to go higher, rise above our obstacles, and to live in health, abundance, and victory. In Your Best Life Now, Osteen says, "I am what I am today because of what I believed about myself yesterday. And I will be tomorrow what I'm believing about myself right now. God sees us as more than conquerors, able to fulfill our destiny. We need to see ourselves through the eyes of our Creator." He says that our self-image should mirror exactly what God says about us, not what we feel or think. And he encourages readers to be people of faith, for if you can see the invisible, God will do the impossible.

When Maureen Coughlin first appeared in The Devil She Knows (2011), the New Orleans Times-Picayune called her "unforgettable" and "the character of the year." Booklist named The Devil She Knows one of 2011's ten best thrillers and declared Maureen "as compelling a character as this reviewer expects to see this year." Now she's back in Bill Loehfelm's new thriller, The Devil in Her Way, and her life has changed in more ways than one: She's starting over in New Orleans as a newly minted member of the police force. Kicking off her final week of field training, Maureen takes a punch from a panicked suspect bursting out of an apartment. Her training officer laughs it off, and the incident even yields a small victory: the cops recover a stash of pot and guns. But out on the street, on the fringes of the action, Maureen sees something sinister transpire between two neighborhood boys that leaves her shaken, and she knows there's more to the story than she's seen. As we follow Maureen's dangerous hunt for answers, Loehfelm leads us around New Orleans's most hidden corners and into its darkest outposts. Bill Loehfelm is the real deal—a lauded thriller writer in the modern tradition of Dennis Lehane, Richard Price, and Michael Connelly. He knows the voices of his city. Like Lehane's Boston, Price's New York City, or Connelly's Los Angeles, Loehfelm's New Orleans leaps off the page, as vibrant, flawed, and unruly as his reborn, fire-hearted protagonist. In The Devil in Her Way, Loehfelm's talents flourish, and the result is a ruthless and propulsive thriller.

To be a good preacher requires skill, knowledge, compassion, humor, and insight. I was not a good preacher until I entered the navy in 1970. Once in the navy, I had the opportunity to listen to a variety of Christian chaplains preach. The best preachers were the Methodists and the Southern Baptists. I asked some of them to explain to me their preaching styles and how they prepared a sermon. When you read my sermons, you will discover the influences that the Southern Baptists and the Methodists had on me. Payday Someday should show you the Southern Baptist influence. Are You a Hero? should show you the Methodist influence. Enjoy and learn!

No one man or woman has ever been in a position to see the presidents, and the presidency, so intimately, over so many years. They called him in for photo opportunities. They called for comfort. They asked about death and salvation; about sin and forgiveness. At a time when the nation is increasingly split over the place of religion in public life, The Preachers and the Presidents reveals how the world's most powerful men and world's most famous evangelist, Billy Graham, knit faith and politics together.

For the sake of the son he never knew, Preacher goes on the warpath. A firestorm of Western adventure from the national bestselling authors. Long ago, the legendary trapper known as Preacher took shelter with the Absaroka and fell in love with a girl called Bird in the Tree. Twenty years later, he rescues a woman and her son from an ambush by the hated Blackfoot. The woman is Birdie, and the valiant young warrior is Hawk That Soars—Preacher’s son. Now the greatest fighter on the frontier is about to take up arms, to protect a family he never knew he had. Led by the vicious war chief Tall Bull, the Blackfoot are trying to wipe out the Absaroka.

Johnstone “[A] rousing, two-fisted saga of the growing American frontier.”—Publishers Weekly on Eyes of Eagles “There’s plenty of gunplay and fast-paced action as this old-time hero proves again that a steady eye and quick reflexes are the keys to survival on the Western frontier.”—Curled Up with a Good Book on Dead Before Sundown
