Imagine a world where time isn't just a passing constant, but an all-consuming god, who created smaller worlds governed by time guardians. A young girl who's at the center of it all, playing a role that even she couldn't have imagined! Jennene Lynn Hauser, a feisty, intelligent brunette finds herself in a world where she's a prophet, seeing not just the past, present, and future, but multiple time orbs. Where she comes from and how she's able to do this remains a mystery, until one night where she's confronted by a massive abomination created by a horrifying entity, known as Viral intelligence Species (VIS), and she's inhabited by an all-powerful god who refers to her only as the vessel. Her mother, Morgan Sue Ann Hauser, kept part of this dark secret from her, not realizing the full extent of it, ultimately bringing out this immense power by leaving her a heartbroken, empty shell and making her a gateway for a cosmic mediator, for reasons unknown to all. All this was just the beginning for a race of supreme beings called the Zanianites, who find out their existence was to purge worlds contaminated by this powerful, mind-altering virus hell-bent on wiping out all life at the sick and sadistic hands of a corrupted time guardian named TarsisBulvis. There's tears, laughter, memorable characters, and even some characters who will leave you keeping your lights on late at night. All this and more on this epic sci-fi thrill ride, and many more to come, in Timeless Visions, volume 1.

Faith and facts are reconciled in this revelatory examination of biblical and secular truths that follows the path to God through science, not around it. Always a man of science, Jim Johnson accepted Christ into his life shortly after his fiftieth birthday. This acceptance of God’s unseeable power did not shake his belief in science—it strengthened it. Through years of research on the world’s evolution, Johnson found that in studying every new hypothesis and theory, he believes even more in God’s universal role. Timeless Vision: Understanding God’s Creation through the Lens of Science bridges the gap between faith and science. Johnson examines the natural progression of Earth’s creation alongside the seven biblical days, explains the conundrum of time, and expands upon the ever-evolving relationship humanity has with science and religion. Through analyzing scripture with detailed data and using science to bolster Christian beliefs, Johnson reveals just how rare and privileged Earth and human life truly are. It is through studying science and faith together, not apart, that we can see how God’s plan was developed and why He did it. One is not complete without the other. Let Johnson lead you down the path less traveled—the one of science and faith—and show how God gave humanity these ways to discover Him more fully and completely.

For Drucker, management was a moral force, not merely a tool at the service of the amoral market . . . "Maciariello and Linkletter provide a very thoughtful and challenging journey in understanding Drucker's profound insights into the meaning of management as a liberal art." —C. William Pollard, Chairman Emeritus, The ServiceMaster Company "Linkletter and Maciariello have done a masterful job in bringing into focus the connections between Drucker's visions of management as a liberal art, of leadership dominated by integrity, high moral values, a focus on developing people, an emphasis on performance and results, and on balancing stability and continuity vs. the discontinuities created by change." —Kenneth G. Wilson, Nobel Laureate in Physics 1982, 20-year disciple of Drucker's writings "Maciariello and Linkletter provide a must-read for a new class of managers and academics who see beyond the bottom line." —David W. Miller, Ph.D., Director Princeton Faith & Work Initiative and Associate Research Scholar, Princeton University, and President, The Avodah Institute About the Book: While corporate malfeasance was once considered the exception, the American public is increasingly viewing unethical, immoral, and even criminal business behavior as the norm. According to the authors of Drucker's Lost Art of Management, there is some truth behind this new perception. Business management has lost its bearings, and the authors look to Peter Drucker’s vision of management as a liberal art to steer business back on course. Recognized as the world's leading Drucker scholar, Joseph Maciariello, along with fellow Drucker scholar Karen Linkletter, provides a blueprint for making corporate American management more functional and redeeming its reputation. Throughout his career, Peter Drucker made clear connections between the liberal arts and effective management, but he passed away before providing a detailed exposition of his ideas. Maciariello and Linkletter integrate their Drucker expertise in management and the liberal arts to finally define management as a liberal art and fulfill Drucker's vision. In Drucker's Lost Art of Management, Maciariello and Linkletter examine Drucker's contention that managers must concern themselves with the foundational concepts of political science, history, economic theory, and other liberal arts, such as: Societal values and standards The use and abuse of power Individual character development Innovation and technology The nature of good and evil The role managers play in a healthy society The authors create a new philosophy of management based on the principles leaders throughout history have relied on to be effective both individually and as custodians of civilized society and healthy economies. Our future executives, professionals, managers, and entrepreneurs are on track to learning (and perpetuating) the idea that only the bottom line matters in business--a concept that benefits no one in the end. It's up to us to instill the ageless verities that make for good management, good society, and good business results. A passionate call for radical change in today's management practices, Drucker's Lost Art of Management provides the ideas, concepts, and practical advice to make that change happen before it's too late.
