Accept No Mediocre Life

by David Foster

No one has to accept mediocre or average as his or her lot in life. You are a one of a kind creation of God and there is nothing average about you. David Foster says, "Most labels are libels which limit our capacity to dream, aspire to greatness, or even feel worthy enough to know God." And the deadliest label of them all is "mediocre" which satisfies too many. But no one has to settle for mediocre. In this book, Foster encourages and equips readers to excel in all aspects of their lives: who they are, where they are, what they have, and while they can. "We will not be denied, because we refuse to live within the limits of man-made labels and libels. We will not accept a mediocre life and we will not disappear quietly into the middle. We gladly accept the proverb, "Those who hear not the music think the dancer's mad.' We hear the music, it's in our heart and soul, and we must dance." The perfect conditions, perfect timing, and perfect skills for achieving excellence will never come. Foster shows readers how to seize today, and realize their full potentials in the present circumstances, whatever they may be.

by Christopher Burge

Instead of telling singles how–or not–to date, Burge and Toussaint tell singles how to prepare themselves for the spouse God intends them to have and what to do once they think that person has been found.

Aaron's Way: The Journey of a Strong-Willed Child

by Kendra Smiley, Aaron Smiley

Kendra Smiley, a former Illinois Mother of the Year, once thought she had met her match in her strong-willed middle son, Aaron. This clever and manipulative child desired to be in control to such an extent that he would sometimes endure punishment just to avoid admitting he was wrong. Because the book relies almost exclusively on one family's experience without drawing on relevant behavioral or scientific studies to place that experience in context, it is not quite up to the standard of other guides about strong-willed children.
