In Plane Sight
Author: Rick Stephens
Publisher: Morgan James Publishing
ISBN: 1631955381
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 235
Book Description
Throughout In Plane Sight, Rick Stephens lays out his personal life in sweeping detail to show how igniting his spiritual life with God helped him achieve success at work, at home, and at play. Stephens describes how his experiences were enshrouded within a master plan God had for him from the beginning—not a predestined plan of “things to do,” but a way of living that led to a life of great adventure, joy, and meaning. After becoming president of two different companies, and being fired from both, Stephens started his own company with a promise from God like that of Abraham many years ago, and a spouse fully on board. Horizon Hobby grew from an idea to become a world leader in the design and development of radio control hobby products, including airplanes, helicopters, cars and beyond. Under Stephens’ leadership the company reached $330 million in revenues with over 700 people in facilities around the world. However, his success in business paled in comparison to the joy of employing biblical principles and living out his faith in the workplace. In Plane Sight recounts how Stephens’ spiritual life was just as real and a part of every experience as what he underwent physically. Instead of compartmentalizing his faith as one of several priorities, he shows how life on earth flourishes when viewed through the lens of the Creator and people live according to His plan for them. In Plane Sight becomes not Stephens’ story, but God’s story within a man.

In Plain Sight: an Investigation Into UFOs and Impossible Science
Author: Ross Coulthart
Publisher: HarperCollins
ISBN: 9781460764183
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
An award-winning journalist investigates a story largely ignored by mainstream media but right there, in front of our eyes ... UFOs, UAPs, flying cigars, extraordinary new technologies ... Are we not alone? Award-winning investigative journalist Ross Coulthart has been intrigued by UFOs since mysterious glowing lights were reported near New Zealand's Kaikoura mountains when he was a teenager. The 1978 sighting is just one of thousands since the 1940s, and yet research into UFOs is still seen as the realm of crackpots and conspiracy theorists. In 2020, however, after decades of denial, the US Department of Defence made the astonishing admission that strange aerial and underwater objects frequently reported and videoed by pilots and tracked by sensors are real, unexplained, and pose a genuine national security concern. Compelled to investigate, Coulthart has embarked on what's become the most confronting and challenging story of his career, speaking to witnesses, researchers, scientists, spies and defence and intelligence officials and insiders. What he has found suggests that the world is on the cusp of extraordinary technological breakthroughs and cultural revelations. Bizarre, sometimes mind-blowing and utterly fascinating, In Plain Sight tells a story that's largely escaped the radar of mainstream media coverage but has been there all along. Now it's time to observe what's in front of our eyes.

Pages : 331
Book Description
The 2008 financial crisis—like the Great Depression—was a world-historical event. What caused it will be debated for years, if not generations. The conventional narrative is that the financial crisis was caused by Wall Street greed and insufficient regulation of the financial system. That narrative produced the Dodd-Frank Act, the most comprehensive financial-system regulation since the New Deal. There is evidence, however, that the Dodd-Frank Act has slowed the recovery from the recession. If insufficient regulation caused the financial crisis, then the Dodd-Frank Act will never be modified or repealed; proponents will argue that doing so will cause another crisis. A competing narrative about what caused the financial crisis has received little attention. This view, which is accepted by almost all Republicans in Congress and most conservatives, contends that the crisis was caused by government housing policies. This book extensively documents this view. For example, it shows that in June 2008, before the crisis, 58 percent of all US mortgages were subprime or other low-quality mortgages. Of these, 76 percent were on the books of government agencies such as Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. When these mortgages defaulted in 2007 and 2008, they drove down housing prices and weakened banks and other mortgage holders, causing the crisis. After this book is published, no one will be able to claim that the financial crisis was caused by insufficient regulation, or defend Dodd-Frank, without coming to terms with the data this book contains.
