Book Description
We all face obstacles. Whether physical, spiritual, emotional, or financial, we are all working to overcome a roadblock ahead of us. When Shay Eskew's roadblock--a splash of gasoline and a lit match that set his body ablaze--came as a child, he had the choice to either succumb to his injuries or to rise above them. In What the Fire Ignited: How Life's Worst Helped Me Achieve My Best, Shay shares the trials and tribulations he was forced to face while recovering from his burns and reclaiming his life as an athlete. Despite being told to give up on sports, Shay began training for and competing in IRONMAN triathlons. By sharing his story, Shay hopes to help those struggling with life to realize the greatest tragedies are often our greatest blessings if we have the faith to stay the course. We are all facing something; we all have the odds stacked against us in some way. In What the Fire Ignited, readers should take comfort in knowing others have been there and not only survived, but thrived. "Shay's story of perseverance and sheer will is one that needs to be told and retold His journey is both harrowing and hope filled." - R.A. Dickey, NL CY Young Winner, Olympic Bronze Medalist "To call Shay Eskew superhuman is an understatement. Shay somehow turned an unthinkable tragedy into boundless inspiration. He bares his soul in, What the Fire Ignited and his story had me laughing and crying, but mostly cheering for this most improbable hero. Go Shay " - Dean Karnazes, TIME: "Top 100 Most Influential People in the World" and NY Times Best Selling Author "This is an incredible story. Shay shares his amazing journey of overcoming countless obstacles and challenges to become a world class athlete against insurmountable odds. It is a story of resilience, strength, family and turning everything thrown at you into an opportunity. Read this and prepare to be inspired " -Craig Alexander, 5 time Triathlon World Champion. "Utterly inspirational. Shay has constantly defied the odds, and his powerful, heart wrenching and ultimately uplifting story is a testament to the indomitable power of the human body and mind. It's a must read." - Chrissie Wellington, 4 time IRONMAN World Champion What the Fire Ignited is a quick, fascinating read. Based on a personal tale of tragedy, it's an inspirational and gut-wrenching account of one man's determination which ultimately proves self-made success is possible despite tragedy and formidable obstacles. Told with self-deprecating humor, a lot of heart and wistful charm this compelling story forces you to empathize, do a little self-reflection, and ultimately walk away thinking, "Man, I want to get to know this guy " - Chanda Bell, Author, The Elf on the Shelf, writer, director "A book that needed to be written now needs to read. BAM" -Jack Daly, three time Amazon Best Selling Author and 15 time Ironman

Book Description
Seventeen year old Kris Young is on the run from a throng of superhuman golden-eyed freaks hell-bent on seeing her dead, and she doesn't know why. Good thing she has her guardian angel to protect her...sort of. Kris is aided by Nathan, the mysterious man that ends up being anything but angelic when he rescues her for the fourth time in fourteen years. Even if the handsome hero illusion is shattered by his harsh treatment of her, he knows how to fight this strange enemy and is determined to keep her safe at all costs. As the body count rises in their wake, Nathan introduces Kris to a world in which not everyone is human and the battle lines between good and evil are clearly drawn. Kris's piece in the puzzle is something neither is aware of and, as they uncover the truth, neither is prepared for what they find. Overcoming twists and revelations that shatter both of their lives, they discover that nothing is as it seems and nothing, least of all their hearts, are safe. From debut author, Desni Dantone, Ignited is the first novel in a tale of first love, mystery and adventure that will introduce you to an exciting new world as Kris discovers how she fits in it.

Book Description
Ahh, the life of a manager. You're squeezed between the needs of your corporation, your team, your customers, and your colleagues. Too often, you're maligned, misunderstood, downsized, reengineered, reorganized, and even misled. Even in the best organizations, you face brutal competition, non-stop pressure, and relentless change. But, whatever your day-to-day realities, you can achieve far greater power, purpose, and success - and Ignited will show you how. It outlines clear, realistic steps for leveraging your networks and resources to transform your vision into reality, and accomplish the powerful goals only you can achieve. This is not another diatribe on leadership or grand strategic vision written by those already at the top: the Jack Welches or Rudy Giulianis who can simply dictate their visions to the organization. Ignited is for those leading from the middle: managers who need real tools to make a real difference. If you're ready to take back your business, your career, and your life, Ignited is for you.

Book Description
Have you ever been absolutely fired up for God? Have you felt fully sold out for Him and promised Him that your life would never be the same again? Too often, these overwhelming, energizing, thrilling feelings don’t last. We attend high-energy events and impassioned church services that leave us feeling so overcome and in love with God. But a few days go by, and we fall back into living our lives just like before. We assume a plateaued relationship with God is normal and that a life of on-fire faith is only possible in certain situations. Jonni Nicole Parsons understands this disconnect all too well. In her debut book, Ignited, Jonni explores what we need to change in our quest for a sustainable passionate faith. Using Scripture and her own personal journey, Jonni will empower you to: Keep your fire for God alive, despite unavoidable feelings of anxiety and fear Remove the distractions that are keeping you from living out God’s purposes Find practical ways to live out your faith no matter your circumstances God wants to awaken a deep longing for Him in our hearts and souls in our everyday moments. We were never meant to be lukewarm, and Ignited offers a fresh perspective on living a passionate life for Jesus.

Stirrings
Author: Lana Dee Povitz
Publisher: UNC Press Books
ISBN: 1469653028
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 359
Book Description
In the last three decades of the twentieth century, government cutbacks, stagnating wages, AIDS, and gentrification pushed ever more people into poverty, and hunger reached levels unseen since the Depression. In response, New Yorkers set the stage for a nationwide food justice movement. Whether organizing school lunch campaigns, establishing food co-ops, or lobbying city officials, citizen-activists made food a political issue, uniting communities across lines of difference. The charismatic, usually female leaders of these efforts were often products of earlier movements: American communism, civil rights activism, feminism, even Eastern mysticism. Situating food justice within these rich lineages, Lana Dee Povitz demonstrates how grassroots activism continued to thrive, even as it was transformed by unrelenting erosion of the country's already fragile social safety net. Using dozens of new oral histories and archives, Povitz reveals the colorful characters who worked behind the scenes to build and sustain the movement, and illuminates how people worked together to overturn hierarchies rooted in class and race, reorienting the history of food activism as a community-based response to austerity. The first book-length history of food activism in a major American city, Stirrings highlights the emotional, intimate, and interpersonal aspects of social movement culture.
