As the saying goes, “It’s not the number of breaths we take, it is the number of moments that take our breath away.” Every now and then, and more often than we realize, God breaks into the routine and gives us one of those awesome moments, so powerful, so amazing, so beautiful that time seems to stand still. How long has it been since you had one of those moments? I have had many moments like that. Some were quite dramatic, some were quite memorable, and some were just too beautiful for words. Do you remember the first time you saw the ocean, or a majestic mountain range, or a breathtaking sunset with colors so amazing that you find yourself thinking, Only God could do that! As we explore in this book some of the many different kinds of moments that take your breath away, it is my hope and prayer that we will all become more aware of and receptive to the myriad breathtaking moments that God has in store for us. —James W. Moore, adapted from the introduction Contains twelve chapters plus an introduction. Each chapter of the book features a key passage of Scripture and focuses on a key theme. A study guide is included.

"Breathe will forever change how you listen to your body and your soul. What do you do when everyone around you tells you one thing but your body and soul tells you another? In this inspirational and hope-filled memoir, one woman battles the good advice she is told versus the God advice that she senses in her spirit. The life that Angela Burgin always prayed for seemed to be at hand when she finally married her love, Samson Logan, and the couple learned they were expecting their first child. The Queen City couple s charmed life started to unravel soon after as her dream of becoming a mother turns into a nightmare. Angela seeks the advice and help of her doctor when she experiences mysterious and unusual symptoms but the doctor says it s all in her head. In her heart, Angela knows that's not true as she progresses from feeling bad during her pregnancy to having a bad feeling that something terrible could happen to her and her baby. She knows something is wrong, but she's not the doctor. In Breathe, Angela and Samson share their life and soul-stirring experience in beautiful and gut-wrenching personal accounts that will give you a glimpse of heaven and hope in the darkest of times." --Publisher description.

"Get ready to savor one of the most powerful autobiographies I have ever read. It's all here: love, faith, family and the abiding power of hope in the face of disappointment and loss. If you needed a primer to guide you through the travails of life, only to look up and find thesilver linings, this is the only book you need ever read on the subject. Phillip Timp's story begins in the mid 1950's in the green fields of Wisconsin, where he is born into a big family. Athletic, curious, and fun loving, Phillip has a happy childhood. One day, fate takes a terrible turn soon after the Timps move to the mountains of southwest Virginia, where they become part of a new extended family, the good people of the Appalachians. Phil becomes a journalist, falls in love, and marries his true love. You can not imagine what joy and pain lies in wait for them. Phil tells the story of resilience on the path to joy that will fill your heart and shore up your spirit. Whether you are a family member, a friend, a medical professional, or a patient with ALS, youwill find wisdom, truth, beauty and hope on these pages. Phillip is an amazing writer, speaker, and rabble rouser. He brings his unvarnished and honest self fully to these pages, but with a sense of humor and just enough grace notes to assure you that he is listening to a higher power and gaining strength in the process. Project Main Street, the ALS support foundation, found Phil and, in celebration of a great life and in the hope of inspiring others, served as publisher of his story. You will return to these pages time and time again. It's that good; it's that resplendent. Phil's story celebrates tenacity in the face of challenges and delivers the ultimate message that life is to be lived fully in every moment, with every day spent in gratitude and love. Life is a gift and Phil unwraps it for all to see. I can not recommend this story highly enough."Adriana TrigianiBestselling author of The Shoemaker's Wife

The New York Times bestselling authors of Switch and Made to Stick explore why certain brief experiences can jolt us and elevate us and change us—and how we can learn to create such extraordinary moments in our life and work. While human lives are endlessly variable, our most memorable positive moments are dominated by four elements: elevation, insight, pride, and connection. If we embrace these elements, we can conjure more moments that matter. What if a teacher could design a lesson that he knew his students would remember twenty years later? What if a manager knew how to create an experience that would delight customers? What if you had a better sense of how to create memories that matter for your children? This book delves into some fascinating mysteries of experience: Why we tend to remember the best or worst moment of an experience, as well as the last moment, and forget the rest. Why “we feel most comfortable when things are certain, but we feel most alive when they’re not.” And why our most cherished memories are clustered into a brief period during our youth. Readers discover how brief experiences can change lives, such as the experiment in which two strangers meet in a room, and forty-five minutes later, they leave as best friends. (What happens in that time?) Or the tale of the world’s youngest female billionaire, who credits her resilience to something her father asked the family at the dinner table. (What was that simple question?) Many of the defining moments in our lives are the result of accident or luck—but why would we leave our most meaningful, memorable moments to chance when we can create them? The Power of Moments shows us how to be the author of richer experiences.

A classic work on the joy of experiencing architecture, with a new afterword reflecting on architecture’s place in the contemporary moment “Architecture begins to matter,” writes Paul Goldberger, “when it brings delight and sadness and perplexity and awe along with a roof over our heads.” In Why Architecture Matters, he shows us how that works in examples ranging from a small Cape Cod cottage to the vast, flowing Prairie houses of Frank Lloyd Wright, from the Lincoln Memorial to the Guggenheim Bilbao. He eloquently describes the Church of Sant’Ivo in Rome as a work that “embraces the deepest complexities of human imagination.” In his afterword to this new edition, Goldberger addresses the current climate in architectural history and takes a more nuanced look at projects such as Thomas Jefferson’s academical village at the University of Virginia and figures including Philip Johnson, whose controversial status has been the topic of much recent discourse. He argues that the emotional impact of great architecture remains vital, even as he welcomes the shift in the field to an increased emphasis on social justice and sustainability.

On the hypothesis that we are all born to be hunters and that life is one big hunting trip, then my first book, Planting Seeds: the Early Years could be equated to Hunting for Dummies. In Book 2, Laying Down Roots: the Intermediate Years my hunts unfold as I alternate from pursuing big game such as a life partner, a career, self-esteem and meaningfulness, to small game like rest areas, a runners high, vacations or fun, while in search of my ultimate prey - self-actualization. In my quest I will be periodically called upon to pull into a service station to rebalance and realign myself and then gas up before proceeding. There will be times when I push myself to exhaustion, on the brink of a complete breakdown, only to find a saving fork in the road. When faced with adversity will I choose flight, fight, freeze or something else? Youll need to read to find out.
