Book Description

Visit coachdungy.com to pre-order your copy and for release information!

Tony Dungy's words and example have intrigued millions of people, particularly following his victory in Super Bowl XLI, the first for an African American coach. How is it possible for a coach--especially a football coach--to win the respect of his players and lead them to the Super Bowl without the screaming histrionics, the profanities, the demand that the sport come before anything else? How is it possible for anyone to be successful without compromising faith and family? In this inspiring and reflective memoir, Coach Dungy tells the story of a life lived for God and family--and challenges us all to redefine our ideas of what it means to succeed. Includes a foreword by Denzel Washington and a 16-page color photo insert.

Book Description

A Tender Story of Faith and Love From Janette Oke

Countless fans of Christian fiction like you were thrilled when Janette Oke released her new series, A PRAIRIE LEGACY. Readers have been rewarded with a touching exploration of the feelings and thoughts of young Virginia Simpson as she grows to be a woman. Now with A Quiet Strength, bestselling author Janette Oke continues Virginia's tale with a heartwarming, romantic novel that mothers and daughters everywhere will love.

Virginia Simpson has learned that grandma Marty was right to insist that when God allows something to be taken from you, he replaces it with something better. The return of Jonathan, their renewed courtship, and the upcoming wedding are all shining examples of that. Still though, the trials and disappointments of Virginia's life weigh heavily on her and the inner strength that has continued to build in her is far from completion.

The first test of her new resolve comes soon after her marriage. Waiting for their house to be completed, the couple has no choice but to live with Jonathan's grandmother. Although Virginia loves the woman, she struggles with having to share her new husband's time. When the house is completed, even greater obstacles arise, challenging both the couple's fledgling love as well as Virginia's inner peace. But like gold refined, Virginia will emerge as a woman of character and godliness.

4 out of 5 stars Marriage, Grandmother, Horses and Mindy.......2004-02-10

Virginia is so anxious to be married to Jonathan that she does not fully count the cost. When reality hits her, she is angry and disallusioned. Her home is finally built and just as life looks promising, an old friend drops in and with her a little waif daughter who ends up being Virginia and Jonathan's. Raising horses is risky and not without long hours - again leaving Virginia to fret. With a baby on the way and an wounded child to heal, horses take priority and Virginia loses her perspective on what is really important. The last straw is when Grandmother breaks her leg and must come live with them. Virginia is ready to throw in the towel when she allows God to speak to her heart and she finally listens. She is able to sort between fact and fantasy, romance and committment and wakes to the real reason for being a family. She is changed forever. Another Janette Oke thriller. Off to book 4!

5 out of 5 stars WOW!.......2000-02-25

I loved the first two books, but this one is the best yet! Virgina has now grown up. At first I was sad that her teen-years adventures were over, but reading about her as an adult has been thrilling. So many things, including an abused child, her own children, a husband, struggles, and her grandmother, happen to her. Through the whole thing she realizes that her relationship with Christ is not what it should be. I think that this book has a great value to it!

5 out of 5 stars Wonderful!.......2000-02-24

Just like the previous reader, I couldn't put the book down! It was such a wonderful story I only wished that I had read the first two novels! I'm a first time reader to author Jannette Oke and I'm happy that found her! It was wonderfully written and very warming to the heart. I was glad to see Virginia's strength renewed during her toughest times. May God continue to bless Mrs. Oke.

Book Description

On June 15, 1999, Mrs. Rosa Parks was awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor -- a tribute to the power of one solitary woman to influence the soul of a nation. But awards and influence were far from her mind when, on December 1, 1955, she refused to move to the back of a city bus in Montgomery, Alabama. She was not trying to start a movement. She was simply tired of social injustice and did not think a woman should be forced to stand so that a man could sit down. Yet her simple act of courage set in motion a chain of events that changed forever the landscape of American race relations. Quiet Strength celebrates the principles and convictions that have guided her through a remarkable life. It is a printed record of her legacy -- her lasting message to a world still struggling to live in harmony.

2 out of 5 stars Rosa was better than this book.........2006-03-22

A little too quiet. There were some nice insights into an amazing and wonderful woman, but they are scant.

5 out of 5 stars Outstanding (and now with a sad epilogue).......2005-11-03

It's amazing: this one courageous woman who simply stood up for her beliefs on December 1, 1955 started one of the largest and most influential civil rights movements in history. This book truly reflects Ms. Parks' in her 'essence.' It is a small collection of her thoughts and experiences. Yet these thoughts convey a very personal and profound impact on anyone reading and meditating on them.
What is sad (as I have noted in my title) is the fact that Ms. Parks recently passed away at age 92, just 9 days before I worte this; her funeral was held today in Detroit. May she rest in peace.

5 out of 5 stars I loved this inspiring book about freedom and courage........1998-11-27

Quiet Strength, by Rosa Parks is an amazing display of one woman's journey to understanding why. Why she and her people needed to justify themselves. Why she had to sit a certain place on a bus. Why she was so tired. Rosa Parks is grounded in her source of Quiet Strength through her relationship with her Creator - God. This relationship has been reinforced by her family and culture. "Love, not fear must be our guide," Rosa states - I would recommend this book to every human being who has a heart and soul.

5 out of 5 stars A Quiet Strength Roars with Astute Wisdom.......2000-11-17

Of all of the meditation books specifically for men, and there really are a number of them, A Quiet Strength is by far my favorite! While it has an issue and meditation for each of the 366 days, I prefer to look up an issue I am dealing with in the index and, every time, I get very pertinent advice. Now and then I leaf quickly through the pages, stopping abruptly and read the section I have stopped on. It always seems to be very pertinent to what is happening in my life at the time. This is well worth the time to search for a copy and encourage (them) to reprint. Your life and those around you will be much the better for it....

5 out of 5 stars The Confident Woman: Finding Quiet Strength in a Turbulent World.......2007-01-18

One of the best books I've ever read!! Our "turbulent world" doesn't lend itself well to finding "quiet strength", but this author has provided great guidance for the process.

5 out of 5 stars A Woman's Perspective.......2000-09-01

This book was excellent for women of any age! I truly related to the scenarios that Ingrid paints, and she has a true knack for writing in a spiritual and uplifting way. As a widow of a pastor, she had a lot to say in regard to dealing with attitude on the single woman's part, the married woman's, and the widow or divorcee. I really feel that this book encouraged and made me rediscover my self-worth and sense of independence. Not only that, but it gave me a challenge on how to focus on work and my life differently. I strong recommend this book to those who are going through any phase of life!

    Book club edition. Through the years Virginia Simpson had learned that Grandma Marty's wisdom was right. When God allows something to be taken from you, He replaces it with something better. The long-awaited return of Jonathan and their renewed courtship, with a wedding soon to follow, are proof of God's loving ways. But the inner strength that God has been forming in Virginia's life through trials and disappointments is far from complete.

      Book Description

      Where can women turn when the demands of schedules and all the accompanying noises crowd our busy days? Where do we go to escape the pressures and mental pollutants of everyday life? People need us. They want us. So much demands our attention so much that we lose both time and desire for quietness. Yet God wants to usher us into His peace and quiet in the exteriors of our lives and in our inner selves.

      "Come away," Jesus says. Experiencing God in new, quieter ways begins by learning to still our souls. Answering God's Call to Quiet gives clear and inviting direction for those who long to linger in God's presence and sense His nearness. Neva Coyle shows how even the busiest Christian can incorporate devotional quietness as a part of daily life. Her practical insights and biblical illustrations invite you to discover for yourself the strength found in moments of silence and how you can take that quiet with you into the whole of life.

      Designed to fit easily into a busy schedule, day by day this study will help you gain strength and peace by balancing your life with moments of stillness and silence in His presence.
