Описание: A New York Times Book Review Notable Book of 2017 A dual biography of Winston Churchill and George Orwell, who preserved democracy from the threats of authoritarianism, from the left and right alike. Both George Orwell and Winston Churchill came close to death in the mid-1930's--Orwell shot in the neck in a trench line in the Spanish Civil War, and Churchill struck by a car in New York City. If they'd died then, history would scarcely remember them. At the time, Churchill was a politician on the outs, his loyalty to his class and party suspect. Orwell was a mildly successful novelist, to put it generously. No one would have predicted that by the end of the 20th century they would be considered two of the most important people in British history for having the vision and courage to campaign tirelessly, in words and in deeds, against the totalitarian threat from both the left and the right. In a crucial moment, they responded first by seeking the facts of the matter, seeing through the lies and obfuscations, and then they acted on their beliefs. Together, to an extent not sufficiently appreciated, they kept the West's compass set toward freedom as its due north. It's not easy to recall now how lonely a position both men once occupied. By the late 1930's, democracy was discredited in many circles, and authoritarian rulers were everywhere in the ascent. There were some who decried the scourge of communism, but saw in Hitler and Mussolini "men we could do business with," if not in fact saviors. And there were others who saw the Nazi and fascist threat as malign, but tended to view communism as the path to salvation. Churchill and Orwell, on the other hand, had the foresight to see clearly that the issue was human freedom--that whatever its coloration, a government that denied its people basic freedoms was a totalitarian menace and had to be resisted. In the end, Churchill and Orwell proved their age's necessary men. The glorious climax of Churchill and Orwell is the work they both did in the decade of the 1940's to triumph over freedom's enemies. And though Churchill played the larger role in the defeat of Hitler and the Axis, Orwell's reckoning with the menace of authoritarian rule in Animal Farm and 1984 would define the stakes of the Cold War for its 50-year course, and continues to give inspiration to fighters for freedom to this day. Taken together, in Thomas E. Ricks's masterful hands, their lives are a beautiful testament to the power of moral conviction, and to the courage it can take to stay true to it, through thick and thin. Churchill and Orwell is a perfect gift for the holidays

Описание: Most books about ministry fundraising focus solely on finances. With this as the foundation for raising support in the Christian realm, entire conversations that have the potential to be centered on God and His work are now interrupted by money demands and specific dollar figures, often making for an uncomfortable atmosphere for both the asker and the receiver. All the money should come in by a certain deadline or else. Or else what? That person is not going to be used by God? God does not call us on the support-raising journey to abandon us. All dollar amounts and timeframes are in His hands. First and foremost, God is more concerned about our own spiritual growth as He uses every circumstance, whether easy or difficult, to shape us into the likeness of Christ. Along the way, He simply calls us to be obedient and faithful to do our part. That means the support-raising journey is God-ordained and much bigger than just racing through the checklists as fast as we can to get to the finish line. Everyone's journey is different, and everyone is being molded by the Father's hand. God and Elephants: A Worshipper's Guide to Raising Support puts Christ back at the center of raising money for your ministry. It is a tool that shows people how to recognize God at work in their lives-how He is stirring their hearts and working in their particular ministries-and teaches them how to put that story into words so that others can worship God as well. This changes the dynamics of raising funds from being a business meeting that people fear and want to avoid to an opportunity to become worship leaders who help others engage in what God is doing here and around the world. Creating a worshipful atmosphere so others can participate in God's work is the true heart of what raising ministry funds is all about.
