Effective Chaplain: A Counseling Guide
KShs 590.00This book’s intention is basically a wake-up call to institutional chaplains especially those within disciplined forces, pastors, general counselors in society and pastoral and counseling students preparing for pastoral ministry. Although the look singles out chaplaincy, its open to other pastoral ministry. The book also presents an argument that much as secular counseling is scientific and good, an integrated approach with the Christian approach to counseling is more in its focus. From this point of view, the primary counselor is the Holy Spirit in Jesus’ embodiment as being one who is a wonderful counselor of counseling aspect in disciplined forces will gladly have served its purpose. The book examines a life of an institutional chaplain and those they handle in areas of counseling. This is drawn from my own experiential background as a chaplain without professional training in counseling spending time with troops, commanders and military families who clearly show emotional struggles and whom I have come to love, spending my entire young hood pastoral emerges serving. It is of essence to explain that although in my definition I seem to be reluctant to include any pastor-chaplain as a counselor, it is no way intended to demean the fabulous pastoral and spiritual role they play in daily quenching the mental and emotional issues troops and their families go through integrated approaches

Tools of Titans: The Tactics, Routines, and Habits of Billionaires, Icons, and World-Class Performers
KShs 2,095.00From the author: “For the last two years, I’ve interviewed nearly two hundred world-class performers for my podcast,The Tim Ferriss Show. The guests range from super celebs (Jamie Foxx, Arnold Schwarzenegger, etc.) and athletes (icons of powerlifting, gymnastics, surfing, etc.) to legendary Special Operations commanders and black-market biochemists. For most of my guests, it’s the first time they’ve agreed to a two-to-three-hour interview, and the show is on the cusp of passing 100 million downloads.
“This book contains the distilled tools, tactics, and ‘inside baseball’ you won’t find anywhere else. It also includes new tips from past guests, and life lessons from new ‘guests’ you haven’t met.
“What makes the show different is a relentless focus on actionable details. This is reflected in the questions. For example: What do these people do in the first sixty minutes of each morning? What do their workout routines look like, and why? What books have they gifted most to other people? What are the biggest wastes of time for novices in their field? What supplements do they take on a daily basis?
“I don’t view myself as an interviewer. I view myself as an experimenter. If I can’t test something and replicate results in the messy reality of everyday life, I’m not interested.
“Everything within these pages has been vetted, explored, and applied to my own life in some fashion. I’ve used dozens of the tactics and philosophies in high-stakes negotiations, high-risk environments, or large business dealings. The lessons have made me millions of dollars and saved me years of wasted effort and frustration.
“I created this book, my ultimate notebook of high-leverage tools, for myself. It’s changed my life, and I hope the same for you.”

The Innocent Man: Murder and Injustice in a Small Town
KShs 400.00John Grisham’s first work of nonfiction: a true crime masterpiece that tells the story of small town justice gone terribly awry.
In the Major League draft of 1971, the first player chosen from the state of Oklahoma was Ron Williamson. When he signed with the Oakland A’s, he said goodbye to his hometown of Ada and left to pursue his dreams of big league glory. Six years later he was back, his dreams broken by a bad arm and bad habits. He began to show signs of mental illness. Unable to keep a job, he moved in with his mother and slept twenty hours a day on her sofa.
In 1982, a twenty-one-year-old cocktail waitress in Ada named Debra Sue Carter was raped and murdered, and for five years the police could not solve the crime. For reasons that were never clear, they suspected Ron Williamson and his friend Dennis Fritz. The two were finally arrested in 1987 and charged with capital murder. With no physical evidence, the prosecution’s case was built on junk science and the testimony of jailhouse snitches and convicts. Dennis Fritz was found guilty and given a life sentence. Ron Williamson was sent to death row.
If you believe that in America you are innocent until proven guilty, this book will shock you. If you believe in the death penalty, this book will disturb you. If you believe the criminal justice system is fair, this book will infuriate you.
Don’t miss Framed, John Grisham’s first work of nonfiction since The Innocent Man, co-authored with Centurion Ministries founder Jim McCloskey.
