Think and Make It Happen

Dr. Augusto Cury's book 'Think and Make It Happen' started out as a difficult read for me. I just couldn't seem to connect to the content. But, suddenly by the 2nd chapter, I was engrossed. His explanations and applications were right on target for my life. Dr. Cury shares simple principles by using Jesus Christ as the primary example. He shows everyday applications for the parent, educator, business executive, and spouse. There are questions at the end of each chapter for further self examination as well as small group discussions. An excellent appendix is also included with guidelines for a small group leader. So many wonderful insights about becoming an authentic person with the people in our lives are demonstrated through powerful engaging stories of real people. Dr. Cury holds Jesus up as the example of grace shown to others, being authentic when others ridicule, and most importantly forgiving those that have not been all that we wanted or needed them to be. It's a great read and a tremendous resource that one can refer to for guidance and practical advice to discover the true potential in both self and others.

Hi Barbara,

Happy New Year to you! I trust you are having an enjoyable day. My name is Todd Stepp and I work for BooksChristian.com, here in Franklin, TN. We are a Christian owned & operated company that sells over 200,000 Christian products.

I have visited beepsmusings.blogspot.com and have noticed that you post book reviews on your blog. I wanted to see if you would be interested in partnering with us, enabling visitors to your blog to purchase books that you review, as well as other books that you may suggest to them (books of the day etc.). In return we would pay you 9% on every sale made. There is very little work that would need to be done on your end, as we provide all the tools to create links and codes that you can post on your blog.

I would love to discuss this further with you at your earliest convenience. I look forward to hearing from you!

Regards,

Todd Stepp
