Hacking Life is a compelling self-help guide that offers a unique approach to achieving success by focusing on what not to do, as much as what to do. The book is structured around the concept that avoiding certain pitfalls can be more crucial than taking the right actions, especially since time is a finite resource and every setback can push you further away from your goals. The author, a father who crafted this book as a roadmap for his children, shares his wisdom in a way that resonates with teenagers and adults alike. The book is divided into four main sections, each addressing a core principle of success. "Give and You Shall Receive" delves into the power of generosity and how offering value to others can open doors to personal achievement. "Shoulders of Giants" emphasizes the importance of learning from those who have already found success, suggesting that the wisdom of predecessors can serve as a valuable foundation for one's own journey. "Setbacks" is a candid discussion about common obstacles and how to steer clear of them, while "Set Forwards" outlines proactive steps one can take to move closer to their aspirations. Throughout the book, readers will find a blend of anecdotes, fables, practical advice, and motivational insights. The author's perspective is that by understanding and avoiding the missteps that often derail progress, individuals can streamline their path to success. This book is not just a manual for achievement; it's a father's heartfelt advice to his children, and by extension, to anyone who aspires to lead a successful and fulfilling life. "Hacking Life" promises to be an invaluable resource for those ready to strategically navigate the complexities of personal and professional growth.

Discover the Joy of Giving--and the Rewards of Receiving Our culture is saturated with false teaching on what it means to be blessed, but what does the Bible say about it? How can we truly live blessed lives? With humor, passion, and clarity, pastor and bestselling author Robert Morris presents the secrets of living a blessed life both financially and spiritually. He shows that when God changes your heart from selfishness to generosity, every part of your life-journey is affected. "There is no greater adventure on Earth than simply living the life of generosity and abundance that is available to all of God's people--but so few ever dare to live," says Pastor Robert. "It is a journey of reward. It is the blessed life." First published in 2002, this newly revised and expanded edition includes new content from recent sermons, updated illustrations from years of the life-changing impact of its message, and testimonies from people experiencing the blessed life.

Two young Harvard MBAs on the fast track to wealth and success tell their story of God's transforming power and how Scripture brought them to the startling conclusion that they should give the majority of their money away to those in need. Packed with compelling case studies, research, and practical strategies, God and Money offers an honest look at what the Bible says about generous giving. No matter what your salary may be, God and Money shows you how you can reap the rewards of radical generosity in your own life. *100% of the author royalties goes toward Christian ministries focused on spreading the Gospel and providing for those in need* “John and Greg realize what everyone should know—that middle-class Americans are among the richest people in world history. It's time for Christ-followers to understand that God has bigger purposes than increasing our standard of living—He wants us to increase our standard of giving." —Randy Alcorn, from the Foreword of God and Money John Cortines and Gregory Baumer met as Harvard MBA candidates in a men's Bible study and stopped asking "How much should I give?" and started asking "How much do I need to keep?" With their top-notch education and rising careers, Cortines and Baumer were guaranteed comfort and security for the rest of their lives. However, when their plans for saving and spending collided with God's purposes for extravagant generosity, they were each compelled to make a life-changing decision that challenges the values held by mainstream America and many Christian commentators. Cortines and Baumer show not only how to radically give, but explain how to do so responsibly.

From the parables of the Rich Young Ruler to the Widow's Mite, the Bible shows us that how we manage our money is critical to our relationship with God. God and Money uses these parables and more to teach you to save, spend, and steward your money in a biblical way by planting God's purposes at the heart of your practices. Discover the 7 Core Principles of Wealth and Giving Authors Cortines and Baumer pack 2,350 verses on money into 7 practical principles that can be applied to your life and finances on a daily basis.

What Others are Saying About God and Money "This is one of the most thoughtful and well researched books on giving that I have had the pleasure of reading. The frameworks presented in the book can be used by people at all stages of experiencing the joy of generosity." —Waters Davis, President of National Christian Foundation Houston. "With uncommon transparency, John and Greg provide a Gospel-centered and practical perspective on wealth. Through a leveling critique of comfortable Christianity, they challenge us to wholeheartedly pursue the joy of generosity. Read this book and you will be inspired, convicted and thinking differently about using what God has given you for Kingdom impact." —Peter Greer, President & CEO of HOPE International and coauthor of Mission Drift "In God and Money, Baumer and Cortines challenge Christian readers to consider afresh what generosity looks like in light of the Scripture's radical teaching and the day of affluence in which we live. Whether or not you agree with all their conclusions or personal practices, you will be challenged and inspired." —Robert L. Plummer, Ph.D., Professor of New Testament Interpretation, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary "I greatly enjoyed reading God and Money! God used the framework Greg and John described to challenge my perspective and practice of generosity. I realized in reading their book that my personal bias is more saver and spender than servant. What I truly desire to be is a fully surrendered servant of Jesus. This book gave me practical frameworks to move in that direction." —Todd Harper, President, Generous Giving "The mission of Harvard Business School is "to educate leaders who make a difference in the world," and in John and Greg that mission has been fulfilled abundantly. It has been my privilege to be their teacher, their colleague and now their friend; and I wish them Godspeed as they take the transformative message found in God and Money out to their community and to the world beyond. I have learned to expect great things from them, and they have yet to disappoint." —Derek van Bever, Senior Lecturer in Business Administration; Director, Forum for Growth and Innovation, Harvard Business School Preview God and Money Table of Contents Part I: Foundations Chapter 1: Wealth and Giving in the Bible Chapter 2: Seven Core Principles for Biblical Wealth and Giving Chapter 3: Motivations for Giving Chapter 4: Trends and Movements in Generosity Part II: Frameworks Chapter 5: The "Three S's Framework:" Spender, Saver, or Servant?

Very few of us lead truly glamorous lives. A large part of daily life is routine, and it is very easy to get into a rut. To start thinking that our lives are plain and boring, and don’t really matter. Leana Platt shows us that that is not true, and gives us a fresh perspective on many aspects of our lives that we consider ordinary. She helps us to look at our children, our friendships, our marriages and other relationships with new eyes, appreciate and celebrate the life we were given and make the most of what we have received, understand that there is power in the simple things in life, and in living with simplicity, and realise anew that a relationship with our Heavenly Father is the key to enjoying this life to the full. The 60 reflections in Embrace Life with Both Hands will inspire and motivate you, and infuse you with renewed energy to make the most of each new day.
