The Three Rs Strategy - Your Guide to a Courageous, Radical Life Makeover Why do so few people today actually walk in the love, authority and power of Jesus? True joy and magnetic power comes from a far deeper understanding of the Word of God. That understanding is found in the pages of this book. If you have salvation through Jesus Christ, yet your life is not filled with the joy you expected ...this book holds your answers. The Three Rs is filled with scripture framed in such a way that you may feel as if you are "seeing it" for the first time. The Three Rs is the author's story, but it is filled with many other personal stories as well. Stories not typically discussed in church settings. Stories usually swept under the rug. Thus keeping the Body of Christ bound with unseen chains and locked in silent prisons. This book illuminates the Word of God in a powerful way. By challenging religious paradigms, The Three Rs will help you to have the freedom, joy, and abundance the Bible promises.

At a time when many boys are in crisis, a much-needed roadmap for helping boys grow into strong and compassionate men Over the past two decades there has been an explosion of new studies that have expanded our knowledge of how boys think and feel. In How to Raise a Boy, psychologist Michael Reichert draws on his decades of research to challenge age-old conventions about how boys become men. Reichert explains how the paradigms about boys needing to be stoic and "man like" can actually cause them to shut down, leading to anger, isolation, and disrespectful or even destructive behaviors. The key to changing the culture lies in how parents, educators, and mentors help boys develop socially and emotionally. Reichert offers readers step-by-step guidance in doing just this by: • Listening and observing, without judgment, so that boys know they're being heard. • Helping them develop strong connections with teachers, coaches, and other role models • Encouraging them to talk about their feelings about the opposite sex and stressing the importance of respecting women • Letting them know that they don't have to "be a man" or "suck it up," when they are experiencing physical or emotional pain. Featuring the latest insights from psychology and neuroscience, How to Raise a Boy will help those who care for young boys and teenagers build a boyhood that will enable them to grow into confident, accomplished and kind men.

What do Indian tractors and iconic America ice-cream companies have in common? Why are leaders of Unilever, Nestle, and many other global companies redefining their futures? Why does this matter to you? The world is shifting and it's fast and furious. The world is more connected every day. Global challenges are multiplying - and the institutions that we expect to take care of these issues can't do it alone. Are you - and your organization - ready for this world? If not, you had better get ready - if you don't rethink your business, someone else will. From interviews with 156 CEOs and senior leaders of organizations from around the world and our work with top teams of leading companies, this book offers insights and practical tools for leaders preparing their businesses, and themselves, for the future. The focus is what actions can be taken today to prepare - including how to bridge the gap between delivering today and succeeding in the future. Business leaders today live in two worlds, the immediate and the long-term. Given intense and growing pressures for immediate results, many leaders are caught up in a short-term trap, and many organizations are becoming exhausted with activity. But is this activity really preparing them for the future, or are they just trying to hold onto the past? On the other side, there are fundamental trends reshaping the world in which business will compete in the future. These changes include falling boundaries between industries (e.g., with banks competing with telecommunications firms), a shifting economic center of gravity, and changing expectations - or demands - from consumers, employees and even society as a whole. Incremental change from current business models and mindsets will not adequately prepare businesses for this future. So the question facing leaders today is how to prepare their organizations for the future, while continuing to deliver current results. This challenge is the focus of Ready? The 3Rs of Preparing Your Organization for the Future. With a foreword by Paul Polman, CEO of Unilever, the book highlights 5 major challenges facing senior business leaders today: Bridging the gap: Understand and address the causes of the short- vs long-term trap in your organization Rethinking your playing field: Analyze the trends reshaping your future and define the implications on your business Redefining your ambition: Address the need to clarify your vision and purpose as fundamental building blocks for preparing for the future Reshaping how you work: Highlight the use of two directional thinking to clarify your "sprints" and "marathons," explore the need to move from transactional to a relational mindset in your interactions, and move from an organization based on complacency to one with the courage, capacity and commitment to challenge and move your organization forward. The 3Rs of preparing yourself for the future: Understand and address the challenges facing you as a leader in preparing yourself for the future. Are you ready?

Christianity is a critical religion. It is not represented this way in the modern era, but it is none the less. A modern Pastor of a mega-church refuses to preach on anything controversial. If Christ had possessed this attitude we would have no churches, no charity, no love, and no reformation. Christ was filled with controversy and his people (the Jews) insisted that the Roman kill him. They did. The book The Three Rs is an answer to this modern error which is propagated by friend and foe alike, The Scriptures represent the religion and people as salt, light and darkness, good and evil. This is controversy. The writing of the Reverend Danforth have received much attention recently because he is an Episcopal Priest, ex-Senator, and good Republican. He is in favor of everything from homo-sexual marriage to creating life for its destruction to save the life of living human beings. He says that he is opposed to abortion (without definition). The Three Rs simply asks people to return to the Bible for answers to all questions pertaining to man, especially his origin, purpose, and destiny. It is built around the ideal question: Can Christianity and radical liberalism co-exist? There is nothing wrong with liberalism in its pure form but radical liberalism of today will destroy life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. George Washington and his continentals were all liberals. However, their conception of liberty and freedom differ from the definitions of today as far as night from day. The first President of the United States always understood that if "God build not the house, they labor in vain that built it." There is but one answer and that is a return to the three Rs which is a return to revival, reformation, and restoration. This will produce a renewal of the American spirit and a revival of thing "sacred and divine." All of this is formed from the ideas of faith, hope, and love which are eternal truths. We live in what some believe to be hopeless times, but for the believer in God we live, breathe, and embrace hope and optimism. I do not know the destiny of the United States but I do believe, understand, and know the destiny of the people of God. We are saved by the grace of God but that does not exclude our faithfulness and obedience. The Three Rs cover these topics. May all of it be faithful to His Will and Word.
