| Since Sam Walton's death in 1992, Wal-Mart has gone from being the largest retailer in the world to holding the top spot of the Fortune 500 list as the largest company in the world. Donald G. Soderquist, who was senior vice chairman during that time, played a crucial role in that success. Sam Walton said, "I tried for almost twenty years to hire Don Soderquist...But when we really needed him later on, he finally joined up and made a great chief operating officer." Responsible for overseeing many of Wal-Mart's key support divisions, including real estate, human resources, information systems, logistics, legal, corporate affairs, and loss prevention, Soderquist stayed true to his Christian values as well as Wal-Mart's distinct management style. "Probably no other Wal-Mart executive since the legendary Sam Walton has come to embody the principles of the company's culture--or to represent them within the industry--as has Don Soderquist," Discount Store News once reported. In this book, Soderquist shares his story of helping lead a global company from being a $43 billion company to one that would eventually exceed $200 billion. Several books have been written about Wal-Mart's success, but none by the ones who were the actual players. It was more than "Everyday Low Prices" and distribution that catapulted the company to the top. The core values established on Jude-Christian principles--and maintained by leaders such as Soderquist--are the real reason for Wal-Mart's success. |

| This revealing book on the life of Samson is much more than an account of a powerful individual who had "a bad hair day." We see how it is not man's strength, but God's purpose which really matters. |

| With no-holds-barred honesty and poignant storytelling, Nate Larkin introduces a model of community and friendship that is reinvigorating men's ministry across the country, a model he calls The Samson Society. Too many men see the biblical hero Samson as their model for manhood--a rugged individualist of the highest order. Yet, Samson's solitary successes were eventually overcome by moral weaknesses. Larkin, through the story of his own past and the stories of those in The Samson Society, offers a radical, refreshing alternative. |

His good friend Lowell Mason has come to remind Samuel of a promise.In such an ordinary manner began that extraordinary day. The familiiar German tune...the scrap of envelope...the scrawled words..."My country, 'tis of thee...I sing." Samuel was more surprised than anyone when the words rang across the country and around the world. |

| While most missionary biographies detail the lives of Western missionaries, this is the story of the African missionary God called to the United States when slavery and segregation were an accepted fact of life. Previously published under the title THE MARCH OF FAITH, this book details the moving life story of Samuel Morris.After a miraculous escape from certain death during the ravages of intertribal warfare in Liberia, Africa, Kaboo was converted to Christ by Methodist missionaries and baptized under the name Samuel Morris. Traveling to America for pastoral training in the late 1880's, his trip was a missionary voyage in itself when several seamen were led to Christ through his godly life. At Taylor University his example of faith made him a leader among the students and a challenge to the faculty. |

| He was not your "typical" missionary-he was an African called to serve in the United States. No one would believe the adventures of nineteenth-century missionary Samuel Morris- unless they believe in a God of compassion and grace. Samuel Morris began life as Kaboo, the eldest son of a tribal chieftain. He was a prince, but then he became a pawn-held in torturous limbo until his father could pay ransom to an enemy tribe. When Kaboo's captors became too greedy, and no amount of ivory could rescue him, a death of unbelievable cruelty awaited. And then God intervened. From Kaboo's miraculous escape, to his acceptance of Christ and baptism by missionaries, to his remarkable voyage to America where he would have an amazing impact on scores of lives, the story of Samuel Morris is an is an adventure of divine proportions. |
