Throughout life, most of us have the privilege of coming in contact with certain people who live exceptionally and set inspiring examples in everyday life. This spiritual journal is dedicated to the memory of a young man named Justin Sullivan who did exactly that: He lived an exceptional life and set an incredible example for other people. Justin graduated third in his class at Yukon High School in Yukon, Oklahoma, where he was not only an honor student, but also an honor athlete. Justin had a strong desire to bring glory to the Lord in every aspect of his life. He was named Baseball Player of the Year for the State of Oklahoma on June 2, 2002, and was tragically killed in a freak car accident the following day on his way home from work. Even though his life was short, Justin taught people what it meant to walk with God. The truth is that he lived a life worth following, and his legacy will carry on for generations to come. His example in life, his impact on people and his personal discipline together created a life that truly made a difference to all those who crossed his path.

The Only Leaders Worth* Following explores what makes some leaders successful while others fail. In it, Tim Spiker explains the Who* Not What Principle -that becoming a truly great leader is far more about developing who we are as people than improving what we do. In spite of data, logic, and personal experiences that point to it, few leaders intentionally and consciously order their own leadership development or the leadership development within their organizations by this principle.What lives within the well-developed Who that makes an exceptional leader? To start, it is far more complex than having good moral character. It means addressing our insecurities and drive for self-preservation. It requires investigation into our core assumptions about life and the personal disciplines we exercise. In short, it means becoming Inwardly Sound and Others Focused.While becoming a well-developed Who is challenging, it is both the most important and most efficient path to reaching our potential as leaders. Who our leaders are, rather than what they do, ultimately determines if we will follow them over the long haul...and it will determine if others will follow us as well.

Spend just a few minutes on any of the major social media platforms and you'll find that women are longing for encouragement, hope, purpose, connection, acceptance, and love, but yet, they're not finding that. Instead, they're finding story after story that is centered on fear. Terrorist attacks, cancer-causing foods, political worries-the list goes on. But even without external fears to contend with, women are fighting internal battles about their worth and abilities on a daily basis. Social media encourages people to compare their lives to the ones they see online. Comparison creates a habit of ungratefulness, an attitude of dissatisfaction, and pattern of envy and even judgmentalism. It's no wonder women leave social media feeling worse rather than better. We've got to take charge of this. As women of faith and women in business and ministry, we have an online responsibility. If we want to get the most out of social media, we need to learn how to better contribute ourselves. We can choose to be intentional in what we post, what we share, what we comment on and what we promote. We can also be discerning in what we choose to read and believe online. This book, by social media specialist Jennifer Bennett, is not another "social media strategy" book. Instead, it's a book that invites readers in all seasons of life to be women of integrity who make a difference online and in the lives of others. Women everywhere are online, regardless of how busy they are, and this book helps them be intentional and responsible with their social media activity. This is a book that can be applied to every part of life.

A Life Worth Living brings together the latest thought on Positive Psychology from an international cast of scholars. It includes historical, philosophical, and empirical reviews of what psychologists have found to matter for personal happiness and well-being. The contributions to this volume agree on priciples of optimal development that start from purely material and selfish concerns, but then lead to ever broader circles of responsibility embracing the goals of others and the well-being of the environment; on the importance of spirituality; on the development of strengths specific to the individual. Rather than material success, popularity, or power, the investigations reported in this volume suggest that personally constructed goals, intrinsic motivation, and a sense of autonomy are much more important. The chapters indicate that hardship and suffering do not necessarily make us unhappy, and they suggest therapeutical implications for improving the quality of life. Specific topics covered include the formation of optimal childhood values and habits as well as a new perspective on aging. This volume provides a powerful counterpoint to a mistakenly reductionist psychology. They show that subjective experience can be studied scientifically and measured accurately. They highlight the potentiality for autonomy and freedom that is among the most precious elements of the human condition. MOreover, they make a convincing case for the importance of subjective phenomena, which often affect happiness more than external, material conditions. After long decades during which psychologists seemed to have forgotten that misery is not the only option, the blossoming of Positive Psychology promises a better understanding of what a vigorous, meaningful life may consist of.
