The entrepreneur, angel investor, and bestselling author of Choose Yourself busts the 10,000-hour rule of achieving mastery, offering a new mindset and dozens of techniques that will inspire any professional—no matter their age or managerial level—to pursue their passions and quickly acquire the skills they need to succeed and achieve their dreams. We live in a hierarchical world where experience has traditionally been the key to promotion. But that period is over! Straight, clear-cut career trajectories no longer exist. Industries disappear, job descriptions change, and people’s interests and passions evolve. The key to riding this wave, entrepreneur James Altucher advises, is to constantly be curious about what’s next, to be comfortable with uncertainty so you can keep navigating the rough waters ahead, and most important, to pursue the things that interest you. In Skip the Line, he reveals how he went from struggling and depressed to making his personal, financial, and creative dreams come true, despite—and perhaps due to—his many failures along the way. Altucher combines his personal story with concrete—and unorthodox—insights that work. But Skip the Line isn’t about hacks and shortcuts—it’s about transforming the way you think, work, and live, letting your interests guide your learning, time, and resources. It’s about allowing yourself to do what comes naturally; the more you do what you love, the better you do it. While showing you how to approach change and crisis, Altucher gives you tools to help easily execute ideas, become an expert negotiator, attract the attention of those around you, scale promising ideas, and improve leadership—all of which will catapult you higher than you ever thought possible and at a speed that everyone will tell you is impossible.

Framed within an inspiring true story of spiritual awakening and deliverance from the clutches of organized crime, Tongues Inside-Out is a practical Biblical guide regarding why Christians can, but most don't resume Man's lost friendship with God by exercising his gift of speaking in tongues. Like Abraham's willingness to take a sign of the righteousness he had by faith, the book makes the case why tongues is likewise a voluntary sign of the circumcision of the heart that all born again Christians already received by grace. The book challenges all Christians that Christ Jesus has never stopped calling for us to step out in faith from our dispensational boats to walk on spiritual waters with unfailing trust that will allow their born again human spirits to pray and worship from the inside-out, causing a never ending spiritual conversation with God in the cool of the day in his Garden. Randal Munn has had careers in banking and law. He served as the State of Nevada's Assistant Attorney General and is currently practicing local government law. He came to faith in Christ Jesus as a young child and was born again in the Charismatic Renewal of the late 1960s. He is a long-standing faithful member of a non-denominational Christian church that believes and gracefully advocates that the Holy Spirit's gifts are for today. He and his wife of over 32 years have two adult children.
Is our Lord's return imminent? Many Christians believe it is""emphasizing that He has promised to return and that as His disciples, we must be ready. Yet in spite of their assurance, surprisingly few of God's people may actually be prepared for His appearing. Of the many signs suggesting that our Lord's return is near, two in particular are of great interest""the rise of Babylon and the restoration of Israel. These two major end-time events as foretold in Scripture have great implications for us as Americans, and more specifically as Christians. America in Prophecy: A Nation at a Crossroads examines these two major prophetic indicators and not only reveals their importance in determining how close to our Lord's return we actually are but also their connection to what it truly means to be a disciple of Jesus Christ. It unveils the big picture regarding end-time Bible prophecy as it relates to America and shows how we are indeed standing at a crossroads not only as a nation but as God's corporate body, the Church, and as its individual members in particular. America in Prophecy seeks to answer the question of where and how we, as Christians living in the United States of America at this particular juncture in history, fit into God's end-time scenario. Most importantly, it explains what we must do to ensure that we are ready for our Lord's return. Of all the books currently on the market, one may be hard-pressed to find a more pertinent, timely, and compelling message for today's Christian. Outside of the Bible, this is quite possibly one of the most exciting books you will ever read on the subject of end-time Bible prophecy and the necessity for believer's everywhere to make certain they are ready for our Lord's return.
