Courage for the Crisis: Strength for Today, Hope for Tomorrow
by Arthur MaxwellHOW TO FIND PEACE OF MIND AND FORTITUDE OF SPIRIT FOR THE DANGEROUS DAYS AHEAD“The world is moving into ever-deepening crisis….scarcely a month passes without a book being published by some philosopher, historian, or theologian, dissecting current trends and warning of the future.”More than half a century has passed since Arthur S. Maxwell first wrote these words in 1962. Is the world a safer place now than it was then? Honest observers are bound to say “No.” In fact, if anything, life today has become even more uncertain, even less stable, than it was fifty years ago.What do we need in times like these? Maxwell says it isn’t “a mere knowledge of the crisis, but courage to meet it.”And where can we get that courage? Maxwell says from God. From the Cross. From good habits—such as obedience, worship, and dedication. And from the great certainties—such as God’s victory over evil, Jesus’ second coming, and the reality of heaven.—Adventist Book Center

Courage: The Heart of Leadership
by Annabel BeerelCourage lies at the heart of leadership. Leaders need courage to make wise decisions, not self-interested ones. They need to be able to set aside their egos, to feel vulnerable, to face challenges, yet remain principled and hold the course. This book presents many suggestions on how to make a real difference in organizations, and explains how one can develop the courage to be an effective leader, step by step.The book is designed to give leaders the self-awareness and the tools to overcome the obstacles that prevent us from leading effectively. Leadership requires working through the systemic barriers that serve as forcefields pulling and pushing us in various directions. Drawing on interviews with over 20 organizational leaders in a variety of industries, the book helps leaders to address key areas that are rarely discussed: the personal baggage attached to authority, self-esteem and self-differentiation, ego management, and the terror of the group. It highlights – with examples – how fear impairs our ability to make good decisions, and how our tendency to reactivity and the quick fix vitiates our attempts at being courageous. The hallmark of courage is the ability to have courageous conversations that invite transformation.The book is ideal reading for organizational leaders who are seeking ways to break through some of the personal and systemic barriers to leading with purpose in a way that makes a real difference.

Courage Is Calling: Fortune Favors the Brave (The Stoic Virtues Series)
by Ryan HolidayThe instant New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and USA Today Bestseller! Ryan Holiday&’s bestselling trilogy—The Obstacle Is the Way, Ego is the Enemy, and Stillness is the Key—captivated professional athletes, CEOs, politicians, and entrepreneurs and helped bring Stoicism to millions of readers. Now, in the first book of an exciting new series on the cardinal virtues of ancient philosophy, Holiday explores the most foundational virtue of all: Courage.Almost every religion, spiritual practice, philosophy and person grapples with fear. The most repeated phrase in the Bible is &“Be not afraid.&” The ancient Greeks spoke of phobos, panic and terror. It is natural to feel fear, the Stoics believed, but it cannot rule you. Courage, then, is the ability to rise above fear, to do what&’s right, to do what&’s needed, to do what is true. And so it rests at the heart of the works of Marcus Aurelius, Aristotle, and CS Lewis, alongside temperance, justice, and wisdom. In Courage Is Calling, Ryan Holiday breaks down the elements of fear, an expression of cowardice, the elements of courage, an expression of bravery, and lastly, the elements of heroism, an expression of valor. Through engaging stories about historic and contemporary leaders, including Charles De Gaulle, Florence Nightingale, and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Holiday shows you how to conquer fear and practice courage in your daily life. You&’ll also delve deep into the moral dilemmas and courageous acts of lesser-known, but equally as important, figures from ancient and modern history, such as Helvidius Priscus, a Roman Senator who stood his ground against emperor Vespasian, even in the face of death; Frank Serpico, a former New York City Police Department Detective who exposed police corruption; and Frederick Douglass and a slave named Nelly, whose fierce resistance against her captors inspired his own crusade to end slavery. In a world in which fear runs rampant—when people would rather stand on the sidelines than speak out against injustice, go along with convention than bet on themselves, and turn a blind eye to the ugly realities of modern life—we need courage more than ever. We need the courage of whistleblowers and risk takers. We need the courage of activists and adventurers. We need the courage of writers who speak the truth—and the courage of leaders to listen. We need you to step into the arena and fight.
