2 very different brothers. 2 very different parents. 2 very different success stories. In Breaking Out of a Broken System, Seth and Chandler Bolt embark on a week-long journey of reflection as they outline the success strategies their parents taught them and the ways those strategies have impacted their lives - in very surprising and different ways. What the Bolt brothers' parents taught them was a way to break out of the broken system that encourages young people to sign up for a mountain of student loan debt, graduate, get a job that barely covers their bills, and trudge up the ladder one wearisome rung at a time. Seth and Chandler decided to share this knowledge. Dedicating their 2012 Christmas break to writing the book, each brother wrote about the 15 principles handed down by their parents and how those strategies shaped his successes and goals. Each brother discusses moments of great triumph and those of failure. The triumphs celebrate the lessons and give the reader two good examples of how having the right plan still requires hard work and dedication. The failures provide comic relief and are often parlayed into teaching points that are honest and effective. Breaking Out of a Broken System lays out the roadmap that allowed - and continues to allow - the Bolt brothers to achieve so much success. Breaking Out of a Broken System provides practical application of the 15 strategies, and gives readers an entertaining glimpse into how they can be applied across interests and disciplines. It challenges readers to do things differently - to define their own dreams, buck the system, achieve their goals, and live free of debt. The result is a refreshing, funny, and entirely unique treatise that in-spires, informs, and empowers people to chase their dreams and avoid the systemic traps that derail most people from their true purpose.

“A moving and beautifully crafted memoir.”—SCOTT TUROW “A daring act of justified defiance.”—SHAKA SENGHOR “Nothing less than heroic.”—JOHN GRISHAM He was seventeen when an all-white jury sentenced him to prison for a crime he didn’t commit. Now a pioneering lawyer, he recalls the journey that led to his exoneration—and inspired him to devote his life to fighting the many injustices in our legal system. Seventeen years old and facing nearly thirty years behind bars, Jarrett Adams sought to figure out the why behind his fate. Sustained by his mother and aunts who brought him back from the edge of despair through letters of prayer and encouragement, Adams became obsessed with our legal system in all its damaged glory. After studying how his constitutional rights to effective counsel had been violated, he solicited the help of the Wisconsin Innocence Project, an organization that exonerates the wrongfully convicted, and won his release after nearly ten years in prison. But the journey was far from over. Adams took the lessons he learned through his incarceration and worked his way through law school with the goal of helping those who, like himself, had faced our legal system at its worst. After earning his law degree, he worked with the New York Innocence Project, becoming the first exoneree ever hired by the nonprofit as a lawyer. In his first case with the Innocence Project, he argued before the same court that had convicted him a decade earlier—and won. In this illuminating story of hope and full-circle redemption, Adams draws on his life and the cases of his clients to show the racist tactics used to convict young men of color, the unique challenges facing exonerees once released, and how the lack of equal representation in our courts is a failure not only of empathy but of our collective ability to uncover the truth. Redeeming Justice is an unforgettable firsthand account of the limits—and possibilities—of our country’s system of law.

The Americanized church culture as we know it is broken, hurting, and missing our greatest responsibility: to love God and love people right where they are. We have become more invested in the superficial needs of man rather than leaving the four walls and becoming the bride. Using the realities of life and conversations, The Broken Bride explores our need to get back to basics in Christ and revolutionize how we daily think of church and people to mend the broken bride. In this reflection, author and pastor Loni M. Stankan helps redefine the hurt church into the divine definition of the bride of Christ as the father intended. Filled with wisdom and advice from living and walking the faith with other believers, Stankan challenges your perception and role of the traditional American church. She encourages Christians to rise up from the megachurches to megacommunities filled with love and grace rooted in the love of Christ and unified in one mind and one spirit.

This is a true story given from first-hand accounts that compelled me to speak out after losing faith in a system that I fought so hard to uphold with honor and integrity. A broken system that allowed Ahmad Cherry to walk away free from facing any charges for shooting my brother. A broken system where investigators failed to rectify the lies on all of the reports that enabled Cherry to keep his freedom and also allowed the officer who failed to do his job on that fateful night to walk away with a full disability pension, while Dan struggles to make it through each and every day. For Dan there will never be justice. A broken system where supervisors can bring false charges against you just so they can fire you. A broken system where the head of Internal Affairs openly admits he was ordered to fire people without investigating them. A broken system where corrupt officers would rob drug dealers, plant drugs on people and commit home invasions on people, taking their freedom from them. A broken system where you report misconduct on these officers but instead of investigating them, they hold a witch hunt for a good officer because he complained about a supervisor placing false charges on him. For me, the system will forever be BROKEN.

Broken, just to be made new is a thesis on the often avoided topic of brokenness. It addresses the issues that lead to it and the questions that arise concerning whether it is a method used by God to mature us or a tool of the devil to defeat us. Does God really want brokenness? Do we really have to become vulnerable to failure in order that we might become powerful in the eyes of God? And finally, where do we go after we've experienced brokenness? Finding your way back to the place of refreshing after one has suffered great loss both of the physical and the spiritual type.

Born into a preaching and musical family, Bishop Ralph "Donnie" Graves recognizes the paradoxical realities of the preacher who preaches healing, wholeness and fulfillment while his or her personal life reek with the foul odor of sickness and eventually death. The main objective of this book is to heighten the awareness of the reader, both preacher and congregant, to the serious struggles each minister encounters. My prayer is that God will give every reader a specific stone to slay the giants assigned to the formation of their ministry. Because of the significant role the preacher plays in the development of individuals' faith, it is imperative that we closely examine the core conflicts that can "sift the preacher as wheat". May each reader find the grace of God, through Jesus Christ, and the power of the Holy Spirit which speak and breathe life into dead dry bones until the broken pulpit is restored.

Two of the greatest fears in life come in the form of questions we often ask ourselves but rarely say out loud: “Am I okay?” and “Do you love me?” The answer the Gospel gives us is both surprising and just what we need to hear: “No, you are not okay, and, yes, I love you.” Jesus holds these two truths about us together, and this is the good news we desperately need.
