Book Description
The Sweet Sixteen was written by Collegiate Men's Basketball coach Austin McBeth. With the increase in the popularity of sports, young men and women are learning a great deal about love and authority from coaches in today's culture. The impact that coaches at every level are leaving on their athletes is greater than it's ever been. McBeth's purpose in writing The Sweet Sixteen is to start the conversation about the abusive atmosphere coaches have created, by looking at what the Bible says about love. 1 Corinthians 13:4-8a talks about sixteen characteristics of love that McBeth breaks down to shine a light on the increasing misuse of such a powerful word and how coaches can begin to love their players in a way that will leave an impact long after their playing career has ended. Love is Patient Kind Does not envy It does not boast Is not proud Does not dishonor others Is not self-seeking Is not easily angered Keeps no record of wrongs Does not delight in evil Love rejoices in the truth Always protects Always trusts Always hopes Always perseveres Love never fails McBeth says, "Regardless of whether you consider yourself a Christian, the concepts in this book will help you become a more effective leader. The Sweet Sixteen is not only beneficial for coaches, but for parents, teachers and anyone in a leadership position." Becoming a Sweet Sixteen coach, parent, or leader will be one of the most challenging and rewarding things you will ever do. Be blessed as you read!

A spoiled party girl’s sweet sixteen gets hijacked by a magical visitor who takes her on a journey through the past and the choices that made her the person she is in this poignant novel from New York Times bestselling author Kate Brian perfect for fans of Afterlife of the Party and Do Revenge. Elite guest list. Vera Wang gown with matching Jimmy Choos. Charming tuxedo-clad boyfriend. Velvet rope. Teagan Phillips’s sweet sixteen is the event of the season. Other parties have been chill, sure, but no one at Rosewood Prep throws a bash as extravagant, exclusive, or over-the-top expensive as Teagan. No one is as obnoxious, either.

Teagan initially mistakes this mystery woman as one of the help, but the stranger’s true purpose is to take Teagan on a ride, bringing her back through time to show her some very unpretty realities. At the end of it all, if she’s lucky, Teagan and her visitor just might put the sweet back in sixteen…

Book Description
This book was written with achievable challenging purposes in mind. We all are designed to develop and evolve in characteristics for Living. Sparks of flames for change must be incited to cultivate Life's necessary levels of growth, maturity, peaks and plateaus. What this book can furnish will last a lifetime. Understanding how to become who you were intended and purposed to be is rewarding. To free yourself and recover from entangled webs is priceless. You are not expected to get there without some type of imparted teaching, guidance, wisdom, encouragement and instruction. Which means you have to depend on someone else's service of giving to you. However it is your choice of how you receive and if you receive. In our Living, we initially gain our character from repetitive perceived acts and instincts. Now we must learn, retrain or unlearn behaviors and manage them to determine our future. Want to change your future? Work on your character. 'Change to Gain' Don't let the title of this book fool you. Bee S.w.e.e.t. Sixteen is not only for young ladies to supposedly reach levels and heights of maturity. This book is for everyone. Male and Female. Young and older to reach levels and heights of maturity because maturity is not an age. Maturity is a conscious law or standard chosen for living. Learning how not to react but rather how to respond to situations that displays ones strengths, restraints, and causes positive change within self that will reward with proper results producing stable levels of achievements. This is not a religious book, however it is inspirational to help edify you. Knowledge is power. Knowledge only comes from and through words, spoken or unspoken. Words are either accurate or ignorant. Why not let positive power come to you from accurate words and put a disclaimer and expel ignorant words from your repertoire. It's time to clean out our thinking and our imagination to live afresh and anew. 'Healthy Imagination coupled with Sound words of Knowledge produces Great Wealth'. Albert Einstein once said: 'Imagination is more powerful than knowledge.'
