Go Big: Make Your Shot Count in the Connected World Review

Go Big: Make Your Shot Count in the Connected World

(More customer reviews)
The first thing that struck me about this book was the fact that I was laughing the whole way through it. It's refreshing to read a book written by an author from this current generation. His style of writing (quick witted comments etc) really connects with me as someone in my 20's. Beyond the humor though, this book challenged me at a very real level. I've always believed that the passions I have could expand past the hobby category, but after reading this book, I can honestly say that I'm more inspired than I've ever been to intentionally pursue a full-time use of these passions. I know it won't happen all at once, but I have to admit that that is now my goal. Overall, it's pretty cool that some college guys launched something so influential from an idea so simple. I could really see their Go Big attitude in the way this book was written. Now it's time to go chase down my own dream.

It began with a free sandwich, a simple camera, and twenty "I can do better than you" shots. From that afternoon of friendly competition, six college guys created Dude Perfect, a YouTube group that specializes in the craziest basketball shots you can imagine. Within months, the guys went from shooting backyard trick shots to starring in GMC truck commercials and standing on an L.A. Red Carpet. Listed by Advertising Age as one of YouTube's Hottest Brands, Dude Perfect's videos have reached and inspired hundreds of millions with one contagious message—the very phrase they championed from day one—Go Big. By leveraging the connected world, Dude Perfect's dream became a reality, and now, they want the same for you. Written by one of the dudes himself, Go Big tells their story and unveils their secret: five practical principles for taking your passions, skills, and dreams to the next level. Are you ready to Go Big?

Heaven for Kids Review

I first purchased this book because I had read the "Heaven" book by Randy Alcorn. The book is based on Scripture and is easy to understand. I think children need to know the "real" idea about Heaven, rather than some "ficticious" thoughts. I find it encouraging to know that here is a great and trusted source to help children understand what Heaven is really all about and the wonders that await those who have accept Christ into their lives.
I recommend Heaven for Kids to any and all children who want to know what Heaven is all about.

In a language kids can understand, Randy Alcorn explores Biblical answers to the questions kids often have about heaven. As in the adult title, Heaven, he addresses the difference between the present Heaven, where we go when we die, and the New Earth, where we will live forever with Jesus after he returns. Intended for kids age 8-12, Heaven for Kids is sure to be an excellent resource for families,`especially those in which the parents have read the adult title and wish to pass on that same level of understanding to their children. The book features ten chapters of questions, and answers based on scripture and written in a style relevant to today's kids. The book also has a summary of the Gospel for those who want to be sure they are going to Heaven someday. Randy encourages kids to live 'in Light of Heaven."
