Описание: In 1961 Paige was put up for adoption, a more taboo and secretive topic than it is today. Paige's adoptive family chose not to focus on the adoption, but instead function as a regular family with natural children. However, being adopted made her feel vulnerable and unreal. She longed to know more about her true self. In Akin to the Truth: A Memoir of Adoption and Identity, Paige tells stories from the perspective of a child and adolescent, growing up with a closely guarded secret. Through vignettes, Paige relates feelings about her adoption to forming and maintaining relationships, caring for pets, moving to new houses and neighborhoods, losing loved ones and entering young adulthood. Her need for acceptance is juxtaposed with her adoptive father's increasingly erratic behavior. This is a tale of family joys and hardships, friendships, falling in love and the need to belong. It is set in the era of free love, social unrest and unexpected change during the 1960s, 70s and 80s.

Описание: The voice of God is the source of faith for the believer. Relationships require communication to be effective and our relationship with God is not different. God wants to talk to us, but with the devil out there constantly trying to impersonate Him, do we know how to test the voices we hear and be sure that the voice of God is the one we act on? Following the death of Christ on the cross, the veil of the temple was torn into two, opening the way for God to speak to every believer directly. Yet, a lot of believers still depend on others to hear the voice of God for them. All the people who did great exploits in the Bible all heard the voice of God. Is it possible that, we today, can also do exploits by hearing the voice of God ourselves? In "Understanding the Voice of God," Akin provides fresh insight into hearing and validating the voice of God. In his characteristic thought provoking style, he shares thoughts that will help you discover the voice of God yourself. He says, "It is not possible for you to search the Word of God with the intention of hearing Him without you discovering Him." You will learn about: - The voice of the believer - Validating the voice in your spirit - The benefits of hearing the voice of God - and lots more.

Описание: Work is the one thing almost everyone has to do in life. Not to engage in some sort of work is to be labelled unemployed, idle or unproductive. Economists track the level of unemployment as a measure of a nation's economic well-being. So governments need to have policies in place to tackle this social and political problem. A key issue though, is whether we have the right concept of this universally important word "Work". In this book, Akin, in his characteristic thought provoking style, shares principles that will help every individual develop a concept of work and increase their productivity. Akin focuses on the paradigms individuals need to embrace to be productive at work. He says, "The dimension of possibilities open to the creator of a product is not determined by the raw materials available but by the knowledge in the mind of the creator." Have you ever had an idea you did not work on because of one obstacle or another that you could not overcome in your mind and then, in a meeting, someone else brings up the same idea which is accepted by all and you want to scream, "That was my idea " Well, next time work the idea.
