“Vivid prose plunges the reader into the politically fraught, self-contained world of a military base” and a chilling true case of triple murder (Linda Landrigan, editor of Alfred Hitchcock Mystery Magazine). Carlton “Butch” Smith was a troubled teenager who’d been kicked out of school for aggressive behavior. His parents lived at Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, in Jacksonville, North Carolina, and when Butch was home with them, his life was fairly normal. But that all changed on August, 24, 1981, when Butch’s sister, aunt, and cousin were found slain in his parents’ house. It was a horrifying crime that shook the Marine base community, not to mention the Smith family—especially when Butch was named the prime suspect. In Tunnel Vision, reporter and true crime author N. P. Simpson delves into this young man’s harrowing past. She also provides a detailed chronicle of the grisly murders and the complex case that followed—a case of conflicting confessions, a mysterious second suspect who was never found, and difficult questions of jurisdiction between military, state, and federal courts.

Leaders everywhere, in arenas big and small, struggle with the desire and, frankly, the need to make sure their vision for the organization they have created or grown continues regardless of circumstances. And the question "what will be my legacy?" is a question all people ask themselves. Myles Munroe has observed that the tendency among leaders is to deal with this question as serious circumstances or retirement loom. Further, it is his belief that this is one of the most important decisions a leader will ever make. This book is a wakeup call. Myles Munroe wants all leaders to focus on building the right team for the future and to make it a top priority because the process is not a quick one. Properly mentoring the right people to ensure the continuation of an organization is actually a process that must be woven into that organization over a span of years or even decades. Chapter topics discussed include The Chaos of Transition The Leadership Dilemma Living Beyond Your Generation The Principles of Mentoring PASSING IT ON shows how to use the concept of mentoring within an organization to value the distinct talents and abilities of the individuals. Mentoring is the pathway to developing leaders from within; leaders who are in line with the goals of the organization; leaders who are most likely to adopt and carry a vision forward.

"Biblical sonship is a position in Christ, not a gender. Dr. Mark Hanby has understood this powerful truth and explained it better than any other man I know." --Don Nori, Publisher, Destiny Image, Inc. Every Elijah needs an Elisha. Every Paul needs a Timothy. Every father needs a son. Every Church needs a generation prepared to step into her God-intended destiny. The true hope of the Church is the preparation of the sons in the house. In The Order of a Son, Mark Hanby, author, father, mentor and apostle shows clearly, simply and powerfully how the anointing of the father is passed down to spiritual sons, helping them to become mature fathers. Without the true ministry of fathers to sons, there can never be a double-portion blessing to continue the Lord's work and the church will most certainly die in the next generations. True fathers will: Empower sons to receive their godly inheritance Teach their sons to forge lasting relationships Show the true biblical blueprint for better evangelism Help their sons to step into the call of God Teach sensitivity to the Holy Spirit The mark of a mature ministry is one that desires sons and not just followers. Dr. Mark Hanby provides a biblical base that will enable the Church to meet her future now--in her sons.
