The first-person account of the family that changed the American retail landscape that Dave Ramsey calls a must-read. Longtime Dollar General CEO Cal Turner, Jr. shares his extraordinary life as heir to the company founded by his father, Cal Turner, Sr., and his grandfather, a dirt farmer turned Depression-era entrepreneur. Cal's narrative is at its heart a father-son story, from his childhood in Scottsville, Kentucky, where business and family were one, to the triumph of reaching the Fortune 300 -- at the cost of risking that very father/son relationship. Cal shares how the small-town values with which he was raised helped him guide Dollar General from family enterprise to national powerhouse. Chronicling three generations of a successful family with very different leadership styles, Cal Jr. shares a wealth of wisdom from a lifetime on the entrepreneurial front lines. He shows how his grandfather turned a third-grade education into an asset for success. He reveals how his driven father hatched the game-changing dollar price point strategy and why it worked. And he explains how he found his own leadership style when he took his place at the helm -- values-based, people-oriented, and pragmatic. Cal's story provides a riveting look at the family love and drama behind Dollar General's spectacular rise, pays homage to the working-class people whose no-frills needs helped determine its rock-bottom prices, and shares the life and lessons of one of America's most compelling business leaders.

This book addresses the subject of dominion and why we need to be involved in the mission, will, and work of the Father's business. Dominion involves God sharing His authority and power with man to fulfill His mission and purpose, and to do His will and work on earth. Our Heavenly Father is the Great Physician and it is His will for us as sons of God to be a physician healing the hurting of our generation. Other God and man dominion roles include: Commander-In-Chief / Soldier, King of Kings / Prince, Lord of the Harvest / Harvester. God has chosen to do nothing on earth except through man. He is depending on you -- He is depending on me. Our Heavenly Father is: It is His will for us as sons of God to be: The Great Physician, the great healer of the complete man: body, soul and spirit. A physician healing the hurting of our generation. The Commander-In-Chief in the war against Satan and sin. A soldier engaging in spiritual warfare against the kingdom of Satan. The King of Kings, the omnipotent, omniscient, omnipresent ruler of the universe. A prince serving in His kingdom with dominion over the prince of this world, Satan. The Great High Priest, the great intercessor that once and for all offered the atoning sacrifice for our sins. A priest, a holy man, an anointed man to serve as an intercessor to His lost world. The Lord of the Harvest A laborer in His harvest field. The Great Commander is Calling His Soldiers to Arms to fight against the forces of evil that are set in array against the purpose and mission of the church. The kingdom of Satan has issued its challenge to the church. What will be our response? The Great High Priest is Calling for Intercessors. It is His will for us to be an intercessor (a go-between) ministering to the needs of this generation, reconciling the world unto Christ. The Great Physician is Calling for Caregivers The world is full of people dying from the disease of sin, crying out in their despair and hopelessness, desperately in need of caregivers that have a relationship with the Great Physician. The Lord of the Harvest is Calling for laborers to work in the harvest, just before the sun sets forever on the harvest field. The Father's harvest business is labor intensive; it depends on laborers.

Jesus was also about His Father's business. It was the only plan that made sense to Him and the one for which He would give His life. As an adult, He knew hard work, sleepless nights, and hunger. He was homeless and a man of sorrows, yet always rejoicing. He was poor, yet made many rich. As Jesus told the young man on the road to Jerusalem, "Foxes have holes and birds of the air have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay His head" (Luke 9:58). By the common measurements of man, Jesus' earthly life was a failure; "though He was rich, yet for your sakes, He became poor, that you through His poverty might become rich" (2 Cor. 8:9). However, no man can be said to have had a greater influence. "And having been perfected, He became the author of eternal salvation to all who obey Him" (Hebrews 5:9)Jesus' life was spent doing nothing but contributing to the most significant business the world has ever known...His Father's! It took a long time, but I eventually came to appreciate and understand the importance of dedicating my life's work to God. Today, I happily work for both of my fathers-my earthly father and my Heavenly Father. It is a business I would not trade for anything. Looking back, I see now that in the moments where I thought we had nothing, we truly possessed everything. My father knew. It was his business to know, and nothing could beat it out of him. This is my story of picking up his business.

USA Today Bestseller List. Many have written about Billy Graham, the evangelist. This is the first book about Billy Graham, the father, written from the perspective of a son who knew him best. As a beloved evangelist and a respected man of God, Billy Graham’s stated purpose in life never wavered: to help people find a personal relationship with God through a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ. This was a calling that only increased over time, and Billy embraced it fully throughout his active ministry and beyond. Yet Billy pursued his life’s work, as many men do, amid a similarly significant calling to be a loving husband and father. While most people knew Billy Graham as America’s pastor, Franklin Graham knew him in a different way, as a dad. And while present and future generations will come to their own conclusions about Billy Graham and the legacy that his commitment to Christ has left behind, no one can speak more insightfully or authoritatively on that subject than a son who grew up in the shadow of his father’s life and the examples of his father’s love. This vulnerable book is a look at both Billy Graham the evangelist and Billy Graham the father, and the impact he had on a son who walked in his father’s steps while also becoming his own man, leading ministries around the world, all of it based on the foundational lessons his father taught him. “My father left behind a testimony to God,” says Franklin, “a legacy not buried in a grave but still pointing people to a heaven-bound destiny. The Lord will say to my father, and to all who served Him obediently, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant’ [Matthew 25:21].”

James Button spent a year writing speeches for Kevin Rudd. Before that, he reported on politics as a highly regarded journalist for Fairfax. But James also has politics in the blood: his father was the diminutive but larger-than-life Senator John Button, who was a minister in the Hawke and Keating governments. Growing up, James watched a roll-call of political luminaries debating the fate of the Labor Party. He saw great victories and defeats at close hand. He believes both his father and his family paid a heavy price for politics. Speechless is James' highly personal account of a year working in Canberra, seen from both the inside and the outside. It's told through his experience of Kevin Rudd's failure to tell his story, and how this helped destroy his prime ministership. It also reflects on how far the Labor Party has moved from the idealism and pragmatism of his father's generation. He ends on a note of hope for the Party's revival.
