Includes: Everyday Entrepreneur – #1 Tim, whose career is stagnating despite his having a good job, has developed some software that could be the basis of his own successful business, but he can’t decide whether to set up on his own, which is how he ends up in a class on entrepreneurship conducted by a man named Sam. By focusing on the qualities of a successful entrepreneur and by learning from Sam’s wide-ranging experience, Tim and his fellow students learn to make important decisions about their future. Family Entrepreneur – #2 Sam returns as frustrated individuals immersed in family businesses enroll in his entrepreneurship course. For ten years Mary has worked at her brother’s business, and has seen her younger brother join the company and receive shares while she got none.

Her class includes three others: a son considering taking over a family business, a successful business owner employing her two daughters, and a man with a stormy working relationship with his sister. Ageless Entrepreneur – #3 This book explores the economic, social, and technological forces that are pushing people into business for themselves at earlier and later stages in their lives than in the past. Whatever their reasons — doors opened by new technology, the self-reliance of owning a robust business — students gather once more to learn how to succeed at any age.

Kingdom's Edge
Author: Chuck Black
Publisher: Multnomah
ISBN: 0307562697
Category : Juvenile Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 146
Book Description
A Riveting Medieval Parallel to the Bible Good and evil clash. Leinad and Cedric are determined to not only survive, but claim hope and victory! In Kingdom’s Dawn , Leinad and Tess, along with all the king’s people, must escape slavery by the powerful Lord Fairos. Kingdom’s Hope finds them free and arriving in the Chessington Valley . But when they forget the king, will Kergon and the Kessons capture them for good? After many years, Kingdom’s Edge finds Cedric living a hopeless life until a stranger appears with powerful words of a new kingdom and a grand army. Finally, Kingdom’s Reign marches you through the danger of earth’s last days as the evil dark knight threatens to defeat the prince once and for all. Swords, knights, and battles define these captivating tales that parallel biblical events from Genesis to Revelation! He was doomed to a life of hopelessness and despair. Then the stranger arrived… For Cedric of Chessington, every day is the same: full of poverty and despair. And he knows that will never change. Or so he thinks. Then a stranger comes to the city. Drawn to the man’s mysterious ways, Cedric discovers the stranger’s humility belies great strength and wisdom. That’s when an astounding truth becomes clear—the stranger is a Master of the Sword, and He is there to train Cedric. Suddenly propelled into a desperate battle against evil, Cedric must rely on the Master’s training if he is going to survive. But the ultimate battle is yet to come, for the Dark Knight is at work, implementing his plan to take over the kingdom. Will Cedric be ready to stand in the face of pure evil? Journey to Arrethtrae, where the King and His Son implement a bold plan to save their kingdom; where courage, faith, and loyalty stand tall in the face of opposition; where good will not bow to evil; and where hope and compassion are as powerful weapons as the sword. DISCUSSION QUESTIONS INCLUDED Story Behind the Book “When my six kids’ eyes glossed over during a reading from the Bible, I paused to explain the significance of redemption to a sin-sick soul. I was rewarded with patronizing elephant nods and more blank stares. Shortly thereafter, I awoke in the middle of the night with a medieval story enveloping my mind. I wrote it down and later read it to my children. Their waning attention transformed into complete anticipation. I was amazed and disappointed. Why did it take a fictional story, not a Bible passage, to get that response? Then I realized—that is how Jesus taught! Parables are powerful! I penned the Kingdom series to help young people get excited about the supremely significant story of Jesus Christ and His mission to save mankind.” — Chuck Black
