How can an internal service providers create value? How can you add value when you don’t have “real” clients? Whether IT, HR, finance, legal, logistics or other, internal service providers are being asked to step to the plate and become value creators. But how? Why are some internal service providers considered strategic partners while others are merely cost centres? Why some ISP seem to have limitless budgets while others fight for every penny they have? Personality: the most powerful way to look at internal service providers and the value they add. And it all starts with four personality profiles: the Accountant, the Butler, the Nanny and the Agent. Personality plays a role in every type of daily actions, from how your service team handles user requests, from the way you manage projects to the employees you hire. And by aligning your personality to the need of the organization, you can become a real strategic partner. To explore and explain the role personality plays in every day action, Simon Chapleau looks beyond internal service providers, delving into behavioural and social studies, psychology and marketing, as well as conducting in-depth interviews with internal service providers that succeeded at becoming value creators. Chapleau reveals why a majority of spouses are surprised by their partner’s decision to divorce, and why you shouldn’t trust your intuition when evaluating the status of your relationships. What differentiates successful dieters from the others (hint, they start their day in a very bad way). And why giving great service isn’t enough to satisfy your users. Whether you realize it or not, you are already an Accountant, a Butler a Nanny or an Agent. The question is, are you playing to your strengths and are you aligned with what the organization expects of you. This book will show you.

Five hundred years ago, the church of Jesus Christ underwent a Reformation. A lot happened after Martin Luther posted his 95 theses on the castle church door in Wittenberg. But the fallout was not simply the start of Protestantism. The Roman Catholic Church also recast itself in response to Luther's call for reforms. And contrary to common belief, Martin Luther did not set out to start a new church. Rather, he was trying to reform the church that already existed by reemphasizing its essence-namely, the "good news" (the gospel) that Jesus forgives and saves sinners. The unity of the church was broken when the pope rejected this call for reform and excommunicated Luther, starting a chain of events that did lead to the institutional fracturing of Christendom and to a plethora of alternative Christian theologies. But, as many - including conservative Catholics - now admit, the church did in fact need reforming. Today, the church - including its Protestant branches - also needs reforming. Some of the issues in contemporary Christianity are very similar to those in the late Middle Ages, though others are new. But if Luther's theology can be blamed - however unfairly - for fragmenting Christianity, perhaps today it can help us recover the wholeness of Christianity. The religious climate in the early 21st-century is simultaneously highly religious and highly secularized. It is a time of extraordinary spiritual and theological diversity. In the spirit of the anniversary we are observing, this book will propose the kind of Christianity that is best suited for our day. The remedies offered here are available by way of the same theology that was the catalyst for reforming the church five hundred years ago.

I can draw a 'euphoric warmth' into my body straight from thin air. It's the same euphoria you get after a great workout, often called a runner's high. As you are well aware, that warm, pleasant feeling isn't just your body heating up from exercise—it's a surge of joy and vitality that starts in your chest and spreads throughout your body, lifting your spirits. We actually feel different versions of this warmth in all sorts of happy moments: soaking up the sunshine, hugging someone we love, or being blown away by an amazing piece of art. In this preface, I'll show how these seemingly unrelated experiences are actually different forms of the same thing— all originating from a single source: God. Surprisingly, everything that makes life breathtakingly beautiful and gives us goosebumps can be traced all the way back to before the Big Bang. However, this profound existential insight is not going to be the book's most crucial aspect. What's really fascinating is that even while perfectly still in a dark and freezing room, without any external stimuli or another person, I can generate this same blissful warmth within a few breaths. You’ve probably heard of monks who can sit on ice for hours without feeling cold. This isn’t some superhuman ability—it’s the result of deep meditation, far beyond anything a meditation app can offer. That’s why monks often choose solitude: to immerse themselves fully in this nourishing energy, letting it embrace them for days and nights. However, I believe this warmth isn’t meant to be kept for oneself; it should be shared and transformed into something even greater. So, in my part of the story, I’m excited to share this book with all of you, explaining everything as clearly and simply as possible—from how these experiences connect to God, to how you can tap into this cosmic source of euphoria yourself. You are welcome to share it with friends, neighbors or even your local barista. My hope is that it reaches those who need it most.

Dr. Montgomery thoroughly documents his conclusions on the basis of a wide range of authorities, and concludes that the only valid approach to history is from the Christian perspective - the authority of God, His Son, and His Word.
