Mandela's Way: Lessons for an Uncertain Age
A compact, profoundly inspiring book that captures the spirit of Nelson Mandela, distilling the South African leader's wisdom into 15 vital life lessons We long for heroes and have too few. Nelson Mandela, who died in 2013 at the age of ninety-five, is the closest thing the world has to a secular saint. He liberated a country from a system of violent prejudice and helped unite oppressor and oppressed in a way that had never been done before. Now Richard Stengel, the editor of Time magazine, has distilled countless hours of intimate conversation with Mandela into fifteen essential life lessons. For nearly three years, including the critical period when Mandela moved South Africa toward the first democratic elections in its history, Stengel collaborated with Mandela on his autobiography, Long Walk to Freedom, and traveled with him everywhere. Eating with him, watching him campaign, hearing him think out loud, Stengel came to know all the different sides of this complex man and became

Evangelism By Fire
The Gospel is not good news to people who do not hear it...and an unpreached gospel is no Gospel at all. In the New Testament we never read about God going forth on His own, but that His followers 'went out and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them.' In short, God acted when they acted. Evangelist Reinhard Bonnke has led millions of people into a life-transforming encounter with God. In 'Evangelism by Fire' he lays out the principles necessary for effective evangelism, showing how God operates through anyone who is willing to follow His plan. The Gospel is as vital today as it was when Jesus walked the shores of the Sea of 'Galilee, ' and nations urgently need the life-giving message of the cross right now. Filled with biblical principles, prophetic messages, and personal examples, 'Evangelism by Fire' will inspire you to bring the focus of your life and ministry back to the Great Commission.

Avsked Från Fienderna
»När man år 2089, vid hundraårsjubiléet med anledning av Berlinmurens fall, erinrar sig att det på den tiden skrevs romaner - och att de mest ambitiösa också handlade om die Wende ; epokskiftet 1989 - då kommer Reinhard Jirgl vara ett av de viktigaste namnen.« | Ur Ulf Peter Hallbergs förord Avsked från fienderna utspelar sig mellan tiden efter andra världskriget och början på nittiotalet, i det som var DDR. I centrum av handlingen står två bröder, som skildes åt av muren mellan Öst och Väst, efter att den ene flytt över gränsen. På andra sidan nåddes han av nyheten att en kvinna som båda bröderna haft en relation med ska ha blivit mördad. Efter murens fall reser han tillbaka till Öst för att ta reda på vad som egentligen hände.Reinhard Jirgls Avsked från fienderna [1995] är en efterkrigsroman på flera plan, som skildrar både andra världskrigets och Kalla krigets efterspel. En berättelse om kärlek och förräderi, vänskap och fiendskap - och en furiös uppgörelse med livet i en diktatur. Om stora och små människor, om enfaldiga och sluga, om informatörer och om de helt och hållet stumma.En tysk modern romanklassiker från östra sidan Berlinmuren, i svensk översättning av Lena Petersson och med ett nyskrivet förord av författaren och översättaren Ulf Peter Hallberg.REINHARD JIRGL är en tysk romanförfattare, född 1953 i Berlin, Östtyskland, som vid murens fall hade sex opublicerade romaner. För manuskriptet till Avsked från fienderna [Abschied von den Feinden] tilldelades Jirgl det prestigefyllda Alfred Döblin-priset 1993. För den färdiga boken [1995] erhöll han även Marburgs litteraturpris. 2010 tilldelades Jirgl Tysklands viktigaste litterära utmärkelse, Georg Büchner-priset.
