| If you haven't already heard the rumbling from Down Under, now's the time to introduce yourself to Reuben Morgan's U.S. debut, World Through Your Eyes. It leaves the definite impression of a seasoned, yet modernly viable face from Australia's Hillsong church. Having spent years honing the craft of songwriting and owning the weekly responsibility of leading worship under mentor-friend and fellow Aussie Darlene Zchsech, it is impossible to spin without hearing and remembering. Imported gems "My Redeemer Lives" and "I Give You My Heart" resonate firmly beside the aggressive pop-laden hooks of "All the Heavens" and "Hear Our Praises," new melodies that will undoubtedly end-up repeating throughout radio stations and churches nationwide. Creatively sensible production carries the songs from start to finish, giving the record a level of entirety and wholeness unusual in today's musically sporadic market. This is vertically-generated music at its most sound and informed. From the worship leader, to your congregation, to your voice. Sounds like church. |

| With his characteristic eloquence and brilliance, Fulton Sheen presents a moving portrayal of the Blessed Virgin Mary that combines deep spirituality with history, philosophy and theology. Mary's whole life is lovingly portrayed in this word portrait that is a never failing source of information, consolation and inspiration. While considering the different phases of Mary's life, Bishop Sheen discusses various problems common to mankind of every age and reveals clearly that every problem can be resolved. He emphasizes the unique dignity, strength and gifts of women and their ability to help heal the world's problems. Sheen stresses mankind's need of the Mother of God and her burning love for all her children. The great resurgence of devotion to Mary is God's way of emphasizing the worth and dignity of every person against the false doctrines that have so confused the modern world. "A stimulating literary picture of the Blessed Virgin Mary ... an impressive scope of information." " Newark News, "A remarkable book by Sheen. Many rays of inspiration are to be gleaned from this thought-provoking work." " Philadelphia Inquirer "The whole treatment is based on a high key that reflects the author's deep reverence and devotion for the Blessed Virgin." " Chicago Sunday Tribune |

| In Worldly Amusements, Pastor Wayne Wilson suggests that all manner of moral pollution is being welcomed into Christian homes and hearts through the sentimentality, action, and laughter provided by the entertainment industry. While the church has combated this influence since the days of the apostles, the generation of Christian leaders raised during the social revolution of the 1960s has largely abandoned the pursuit of a pure heart. The purity of Christ's Bride has been sullied as she has come to delight in that which is an offense of God. Is there a solution? A way back? Yes, says Pastor Wilson. |

| Readers who benefited from Hunter's bestselling 2001 parable The Servant: A Simple Story About the True Essence of Leadership will enjoy this follow-up, which fleshes out some of the principles of servant leadership discussed in the earlier book. (For that reason, it also works as a stand-alone book for those who have not read The Servant or those who find straight advice literature more helpful than allegories.) Effective leadership, Hunter states, is about relationships, not coercive power; leadership development and character development are one and the same. The book's ideas are solid and the anecdotes helpful: Hunter trots out examples ranging from Southwest Airlines and General Electric to the U.S. military and professional football. The book draws on Christian themes but in a soft, understated way. One strong element is Hunter's attention to the history of different management styles in the 20th century, assessing what worked at the time and what needs to change for our era. Since business books tend to be myopically ahistorical, Hunter's glimpses of the past are refreshing and instructive. While some readers will be put off by the book's oral-style presentation-complete with overused exclamation points and rhetorical questions-others may find that the style contributes to the book's conversational and accessible tone.Copyright (C) Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc.
