Runner's World The Runner's Brain

release date: Sep 29, 2015
Runner's World The Runner's Brain
As a runner, your biggest asset (or sometimes your greatest enemy) is your brain. What you think and feel on and off the road also has a huge influence over how you perform once you lace up. Runner''s World The Runner''s Brain shows you how to unlock and capture the miraculous potential of the body''s most mysterious and intriguing organ and rewire your mind for a lifetime of athletic success. The book is based on cutting-edge brain science and sports psychology that author Dr. Jeff Brown uses every day in his private practice and as part of the medical team of several major road races including the Boston Marathon. Full of fascinating insights from runners of all abilities-including champion marathoner Meb Keflezighi and other greats-the book includes trustworthy information that''s been proven to work both in the lab and on the road.

Corporate Decision-Making in the Church of the New Testament

release date: Aug 28, 2014
Corporate Decision-Making in the Church of the New Testament
Debate about church order has gone on for centuries within Christianity, and an end is nowhere in sight. Perhaps that is good, since the debate shows the weaknesses of many ideas that need correction. Corporate Decision-Making in the Church of the New Testament examines church order from a careful exegetical perspective, with particular attention to the social world of the New Testament. While most works about church government address structure and qualities of leadership, Jeff Brown deals with the interaction of the people of the church, both with their leaders and with one another, in setting policy. In brief, though all believers in the young church of the New Testament revered Christ and his Word as authoritative, not all church decisions were from the top down from earthly leaders. On the contrary, many were from the bottom up. This should come as no surprise to those familiar with Jesus'' admonition in the Gospels, You have one teacher, and you are all brothers.

Grounded Spirituality

release date: Mar 15, 2019
Grounded Spirituality
In this courageous, groundbreaking book, Jeff Brown takes us on the spiritual ride of a lifetime. The book opens with the author''s compelling journey, through a variety of spiritual approaches. Through decades of dedicated exploration and discernment, Brown exposes the transcendent notions of spirituality that limit our human experience. In his fiercely authentic, no-holds-barred style, Brown demonstrates that spirituality is a whole-being awakening, one that heartfully, embraces our entire human experience: our feelings, our stories, our bodies, our relationships with others, and the earth that houses us. Hands-on exercises throughout provide a direct experience of a vital new model. In ''Grounded Spirituality'', the author lays down the tracks for an embodied way of being, one that leaves us ''enrealed,'' integrated, and purposeful. Not transcending our humanness, but finding meaning and spirituality within in, right in the heart of our imperfect daily lives. Back to our roots, back into our bodies, back into all that makes us magnificently human. Home at last...
