The Real Truth About Money. This exciting book explodes the myths about prosperity and addresses some of the lies that tend to blind us. The Truths revealed in this book will help you become a winner in the financial arena of your life and see that God's Investment Plan really does work.
From the #1 "New York Times"-bestselling author of "Ordinary People, Extraordinary Wealth" comes this insider's view into how today's investment practices have become so misleading and manipulative that investors must take charge of their own finances.
"As long as we can make our payments, we're okay ... aren't we? To answer this and other provocative questions relating to your money, financial expert Russ Crosson teams up with gifted communicator Kelly Talamo to expose the common lies people believe about money. Through the use of everyday stories about men and women wrestling with financial decisions just like the ones we all make, Russ and Kelly refute these lies by revealing what the Bible says is the truth about money. Included are subtle lies that permeate out culture: we can't afford to give to our church or charity; what we do with our money is our own business; the more we have, the happier we'll be; my talents and abilities have produced my wealth; I can get rich quick."--Jacket.
An entertaining, deeply informative explanation of how high-level financial crimes work, written by an industry insider who’s an expert in the field. The way most white-collar crime works is by manipulating institutional psychology. That means creating something that looks as much as possible like a normal set of transactions. The drama comes later, when it all unwinds. Financial crime seems horribly complicated, but there are only so many ways you can con someone out of what’s theirs. In Lying for Money, veteran regulatory economist and market analyst Dan Davies tells the story of fraud through a genealogy of financial malfeasance, including: the Great Salad Oil swindle, the Pigeon King International fraud, the fictional British colony of Poyais in South America, the Boston Ladies’ Deposit Company, the Portuguese Banknote Affair, Theranos, and the Bre-X scam. Davies brings new insights into these schemes and shows how all frauds, current and historical, belong to one of four categories (“long firm,” counterfeiting, control fraud, and market crimes) and operate on the same basic principles. The only elements that change are the victims, the scammers, and the terminology. Davies has years of experience picking the bones out of some of the most famous frauds of the modern age. Now he reveals the big picture that emerges from their labyrinths of deceit and explains how fraud has shaped the entire development of the modern world economy.

From the author of the bestselling novel The Shack and the New York Times bestsellers Cross Roads and Eve comes a compelling, conversational exploration of twenty-eight assumptions about God—assumptions that just might be keeping us from experiencing His unconditional, all-encompassing love. In his wildly popular novels, Wm. Paul Young portrayed the Triune God in ways that challenged our thinking—sometimes upending long-held beliefs, but always centered in the eternal, all-encompassing nature of God’s love. Now, in Wm. Paul Young’s first nonfiction book, he invites us to revisit our assumptions about God—this time using the Bible, theological discussion, and personal anecdotes. Paul encourages us to think through beliefs we’ve presumed to be true and consider whether some might actually be false. Expounding on the compassion fans felt from the “Papa” portrayed in The Shack—now a major film starring Sam Worthington and Octavia Spencer—Paul encourages you to think anew about important issues including sin, religion, hell, politics, identity, creation, human rights, and helping us discover God’s deep and abiding love.
Jesus depended on the Holy Spirit. Jesus was born by the Spirit, filled by the Spirit, led by the Spirit, empowered by the Spirit, and offered Himself as a sacrifice on the cross by the eternal Spirit. Then at His ascension, He prayed to the Father that His followers would have the same power available to them. However, as modern believers, we have worked very hard to minimize our dependence on the Holy Spirit. In Spirit-Filled Jesus, Vladimir Savchuk presents the life of Jesus as an example for us to follow into living an abundant life full of the Holy Spirit and His power. We are called to pick up our cross and follow Him, but we can't do that unless we rely on the Holy Spirit the same way He did. Find out more in Spirit-Filled Jesus!
