The spin / by Stroman, Marcus,1991-;
Everyone knows Marcus Stroman as a baseball player. He loves the sport, and yes, he probably has a shot at the pros. But "baseball player" doesn't totally define him. Why won't anyone also see him as a basketball player or a musician? While he loves being known for what he does well, he's struggling because people are trying to limit him to just one thing. Literally how high up a mountain does Marcus need to climb to be completely free of what everyone else sees? How can he protect himself from the online zings, the chatter, and the opinions?

With some perspective from a new view, Marcus realizes that no matter what field, court, or classroom he's in, he has to block some shots.Ages 8-12.

The pathway to success : letting God lead you to a life of meaning and purpose / by Meyer, Joyce,1943-author.;
Includes bibliographical references."The world tells us that having a good job, owning your own business, money, fame, and influence are all important for a successful life. If we don't have them, we feel like a failure. But even when we achieve them, we still end up unhappy, unfulfilled, or lonely. God wants us to be successful, but His definition of success is not the same as the world's definition. The truth is, God's way of achieving the dreams and desires that truly fulfill us and bring genuine joy to our lives is very different-and that is what we need. In The Pathway to Success, you will discover a deeper understanding of what it means to seek success God's way. Through her practical, relatable insights based on God's Word, beloved Bible teacher Joyce Meyer reveals how to actively pursue the keys to true, lasting success. Full of rich encouragement and timeless wisdom, The Pathway to Success will allow you to refocus your life and fulfill your God-given destiny as you walk out the purpose He's planned for you"--
