Book Description
People are serious now. They’re going to the gym and changing their diets. Hundreds of thousands of people are working on turning back their biological clocks, doing the exercise that can put off up to 70% of the typical decay associated with aging and eliminate 50% of the illnesses that afflict people as they get older.
Now, to make that promise even easier to achieve, comes the Younger Next Year Journal. This is a needed recordkeeper for every trip to the gym, or better yet, bike vacation or ski trip. Beginning with a short introduction to working out the Younger Next Year way—how to use a heart rate monitor, why keeping a journal is important, how to look at exercise as your new job—here is a 224-page fill-in book with prompts that help you keep meticulous track of your workouts, your heart rate, your diet, how you feel, how you’ve reached out to others, and more. In addition, the journal is filled with motivational tips from Chris Crowley—don’t skimp on leg weights, treat yourself to the best equipment, how to get your Significant Other to work out with you—and medical Q&A’s from Dr. Henry Lodge, covering the science of aging, low-fat diets, and more.

Starting on second year of reading it daily.......2006-06-06
Each daily entry is a pithy, thought-provoking insight into becoming a respected, valued, and life-changing leader.
After one year of reading the daily entries and now starting on a second year, I can highly recommend this book for those who really want to lead from the heart and who can understand that a real leader is a servant to his or her team. If you don't want to change yourself, your perspectives, or your methods of leadership, don't bother with this book. It is for those who value personal growth and enrichment for leader and followers, despite personal sacrifices by the leader to model the necessary maturity.
Inspirational.......2006-02-23
I ran across allot of John Maxwell's work while doing resreach in graudate school. I have found his insight and advice inspiring and helpful. Leadership Promises is no different. This is a must have daily meditation for anyone striving to lead and achieve spiritual balance.
Outstanding devotional for any leader.......2006-02-12
I bought both the hardback version and the leather bound version (1 for me and 1 as a gift).
A leader is not necessarily someone who has a position of high authority or who has hundred or thousands under his influence. Everyone can and should be a leader in some form or fashion, whether it is in the home with the family, in the workplace or at school while displaying God's testimony through your life, or in the church through our ministry, official or not. So, while this book is designed to be written for leaders, it applies to pretty much everyone.
I received this item in the middle of February, and the first day I had it, I read almost back to the beginning of the year. The book has superb insight regarding leadership examples in Scripture. Maxwell begins each day with a passage of Scripture from either the OT or NT and points out the leadership example displayed within. He takes from his previous writings on leadership to expound upon the leadership ideal found in the passage. As a seminary student, hoping to lead spiritually, a military officer, a husband and future father, I found this book to be a superb tool in helping me find my potential in leadership through God's gifts and His Word.
Binding and pages:
I was very pleased with the stout nature of the binding of both the leather bound and hardback versions. Both appear to be very durable and expertly bound. The pages are thick (again durable) and the layout is very beautifully done. Each page has a watermark on it with an inspirational image at the beginning of each month. Both editions have a ribbon bookmark.
I highly recommend this book to all people as we all have our times where we lead. This book will help us prepare for that time.
Highly recommended way to start the day........2005-10-24
Bought "Leadership Promises" for my boss. He faithfully starts his day with it. He's had me ordered 3 more copies for him to give as gifts. The book will have great impact on your life & those in your life. Hard to read just one day at a time.
INSIGHTS INTO LEADERSHIP FROM THE MASTER.......2005-04-11
Buy two copies...one for you and one for a friend, family member or leader you know. Everyone benifits from simple, daily insights into leadership.
You'll learn...
What you can do to make ANY team more effective.
What EVERY leader must see.
What leaders MUST trade to have lasting value.
... and much more.
This book doubles as a devotional, so you'll be maximizing your time-glorifing God, getting closer to HIM, while improving your own life. Even for non-Christians, this book is a massive collection of leadership insights gleamed from a master leader. Don't pass it up.

Customer Reviews:
Great little book!.......2007-10-09
I love this book as it is a handy quick reference book for when you are helping others and need a certain Bible verse to comfort, encourage, etc. Bought one of each of my 8 children to have! Many different topics to look up to help in times of trouble. A must have and small enough to carry with you, but print is nice size also.
The best Scripture-based "Promises" book available.......2007-01-29
The compiler of this book (Dr. A. L. Gill) has crafted the single most powerful book of God's Promises. First, the Scripture is primarily drawn from the King James Version of The Bible. Newer "Living" translations, while they may be useful, occasionally change the meaning and context as a by-product of "updating" the language. With King James Version Scripture, you can't go wrong. Second, this is a reference work organized in a primarily situational manner. If you have a need, the book guides you to Scripture that addresses that need. Finally, other than the organizational text, it's 100% Scripture. Too often authors of "Promises" books add their own agenda and interpretation. Depending upon the author, this can cause more harm than good. This book places God's word in your mind and in your heart and lets you decide what He is trying to communicate to you. I consider this to be an essential book for any Christian seeking a deeper understanding of God's Word.
Just What I Was Looking For.......2005-09-18
This book is a topical reference for finding Bible verses according to what the verse is about. The topics such as love, suffering, grace, etc are listed alphabetically and are followed by one or more verses that pertain to that subject. This makes it easy quickly find a verse for every occasion and important topics covered in the Bible.
WONDERFUL BOOK of Bible Verses!.......2005-02-22
Like JoAnne, my mom gave me this book when I was going through a tough time in my life. It calmed me as the book contains specific Bible verses that speak to your need at a particular time in your life. It helps to increase your faith. It's also a GREAT companion book to use when studying the Bible. I HIGHLY recommend it!
Encouraging reminder of God's promises.......2003-10-07
This book was given to me while I was in a crisis. My life was turned upside-down. People had lied and betrayed me. There was nothing or nobody that I could trust, except God. This book offered a catagorized collection of God's promises of hope and comfort that I could hang onto, and it gave me security. Since that time I have used this book like a topical bible to add verses to encouragement cards and have given away a handful of copies to Christian friends in need of a reminder of God's unfailing love. I have a few other versions of promise books, but this one is indispensible!

Not The Best But A Good Read.......2004-07-30
Though I would have to say that this is not one of my favorite Diana Palmer books, she did keep you interested in the story and the conflicts in the story keep you reading til the end.
Wow.......2004-03-10
This novel was quite possibly THE best romance novel I've ever read...and I've read plenty. lol My favorite book of my collection by far.
Bound by a Promise.......1999-12-24
The back cover reads:
"She was indebted to him. They had met on the lake shore, not even exchanging names. A disturbing encounter that made Katherine understand the kind of power wealth and fame could bring--the kind of power wielded by a man like Garet Cambridge. Then a strange and unavoidable accident brought their lives together. Though Garet never suspected the truth, Katherine ached with the knowledge that she was the woman who had cost him his sight. She was indebted to Garet in a way that could never be repayed, she realized. Not by her endless hours of work as his assistant, or by her caring and companionship...Not even by her boundless love."

Best for ANY occasion.......2006-09-16
This book is one of my all time favorites, which is very surprising if you have every seen the size. I was in a book store with family rushing to leave and something stopped me. I picked up this book and then I put it down because I needed to leave with my family. I don't exactly know why I picked it back up to buy it, but it was the best book I ever purchased. It is all you ever wanted in a short-story, inspirational breath of fresh air. Any situation you are going through this book will help you connect with God to see you through. Take a chance. Take my advice. Buy it! You won't regret it!

I like this book a lot!.......1999-10-12

I have read this book many times already. It is such an encouragement to read. The bible verses and Max's insight combine wonderfully together. It small enough to be carried around whenever you need a pick me up through out the day
Book Description
“There is a battle, a critical front on the broader culture war, over the nature of the family.” (From Chapter 1)
And this battle is tearing American families apart. Divorce is all too common, and even homes that stay together are often nothing more than a collection of individuals sharing the same roof. What’s worse is that even in the church the family is being torn apart as age- and gender-specific programs break up time together. R. C. Sproul, Jr., decries the alarming state of the family in our time; he calls Christians to look to the Word of God to see how we can be bound together as families and as the church through a biblical understanding of the covenant.
Bound for Glory begins with a conversation between father and son, R. C. Sproul, Senior and Junior, about the importance of leading families in a covenantal relationship with God. R. C. Sproul, Jr., then discusses the implications of this covenantal relationship for husbands, wives, children, and the church family. He speaks especially to men as the leaders in their households, encouraging them to make God’s Word known in their families, to help their wives and children grow in godliness, and to take responsibility for the testimony of their family to others. The book ends with another conversation between father and son about the benefits of homeschooling and the role that parents should play in their child’s education.
Bound for Glory will help you and your family be bound together as a covenantal family for the glory of God.
Customer Reviews:
Couldn't be better..........2006-09-10
A tremendous overview of how God designed families to interact with each other, within the church, and within the government. Each role (husband/father, wife/mother, child)is thoroughly explained and brought into proper perspective. Sproul, Jr. reiterates that it is essential that each role be fulfilled according to God's plan, though the roles vary in duties/requirements. Excellent choice if you're looking to get your home lined up with scripture!
A Great Book for Knitting Families Together (Including Ones that Have Come Unraveled).......2006-02-26
This is a great book about, just as the subtitle suggests, "God's promise for your family." The author covers the basics of God's design for the family, including each member (husband, wife, and child) as well as the church family, and he does not compromise what the scriptures, themselves, have to say on the matter. The theme of this book is, I think, best summarized in the closing paragraph, from which the following excerpt is taken, "We have been adopted into the only non-dysfunctional family in the universe. And he who has begun a good work in us has promised to bring us to perfection." The pages are filled with reason to hope, regardless of the state your family is in or the stage of life in which you currently find yourself.

Blessed!.......2007-08-28
I just got a new and very demanding job and have had a hard time finding a 2007 planner this late in the year, and one that fits my needs. I came across this one and IT IS PERFECT. It blesses my days in helping to provide order, and in reminding me Who holds my days in the palm of His hand! I love this planner - there's plenty of room to write, and lots of helpful extras in the back for storing information. And the scripture references and inspirational sayings make it that much better. Compact, beautiful, and worthwhile - I can't wait to buy the one for next year.
Practical, nice looking and inspirational.......2007-05-08
Very thin so it can fit anywhere, consice and with a nice looking covert. This is my second year with it and I am going to buy it next year.
Beautiful.......2007-03-08
I enjoy having this beautiful planner to guide me through my days. It is consoling to read Max Lucado/Billy Graham/Charles Swindoll and other GREATS remind you of the WORDS OF GOD! It really speaks to you!
I recommend this as a gift or just for anyone to enjoy!
The Politically-Correct Daily Planner.......2007-02-19
For those of you who've purchased the "Christian Daily Planner" in the past, this is the same thing. For some reason, the manufacturers decided "Christian" was too exclusive a term and so made it "inspirational" instead.
But fear not -- the content hasn't been toned down (in this version, at least. We'll see what next year holds.) There are still Bible verses and inspirational thoughts throughout. My wife uses hers extensively, and she requests a new one every year.
However, if they water it down to fluffy feel-good sayings and drop the verses, we'll purchase a different product next year.
wonderful product.......2007-01-16
I searched in local stores and could not find this type of daily planner. I was so excited to find it online. It was a gift and the recipient was very pleased.
