For author Randy Parikh, the United States and patriotism are intimately linked and have been since he first experienced American kindness and altruism. The Winning Spirit examines the importance of patriotism and to love one another on American democracy, politics, and government to help others achieve dreams through the lens of Randy's own life. Parikh's story is both an inspirational memoir and an examination of US political philosophy, with a focus on the nation's original values and the willingness of Americans to sacrifice for their country-from presidents and business leaders to soldiers, police, and firefighters. As Parikh recounts his experiences, the reader is drawn into a fascinating portrayal of 21st century American history that shows the importance of maintaining the core principles that make the United States of America the beacon of hope it is. Randy is a true patriot, a man defined by his love for-and sense of duty to-USA and humanity.

You know the battle is raging--but are you fighting the right enemy? Just as enemies fought Joshua in the Promised Land, and Nehemiah faced opposition as he rebuilt the walls of Jerusalem, our enemy will fight us as we approach the spiritual terrain God has promised us. Most Christians retreat at the first sign of conflict because they fail to recognize the true nature of the battle. But you can prevail in freedom and joy. Sharing his deeply personal story of demonic bondage, torment and ultimate deliverance, pastor and bestselling author Kris Vallotton turns the idea of spiritual warfare as we know it on its head. He reveals the diabolical lies and strategies of the enemy--attacks and traps so subtle and deceptive that we may find our souls and hearts imprisoned without even knowing it. No more! Now you can win the invisible battle against sin and the enemy. Victory is within your grasp. Will you take hold? "It is with great excitement that I recommend this book to you, knowing that fruit will increase until Jesus gets His full reward."--Bill Johnson, author, When Heaven Invades Earth and The Essential Guide to Healing, senior pastor, Bethel Church, Redding, California

Despite her multiple sclerosis, Zoe Koplowitz has entered the last nine New York Marathons, finishing last each time. In The Winning Spirit, she shares her secrets for tapping into your own inner strength and defining the word "win" in the context of your own life.

An inspiring guide to playing your personal best in the sport of life As an orthopedic surgeon, a finish-line physician, and a USA team doctor at the World Cup and the Olympics, Dr. Bert Mandelbaum has witnessed the trials and triumphs of elite athletes from a vantage point few of us get. And over his twenty-plus years of experience, he’s identified a common character trait that every elite athlete relies upon for success: it’s what he calls the “victorious spirit.” In The Win Within, Mandelbaum reveals that any of us—no matter our age or physical condition—can capture that same spirit in our own lives. This inner drive to win resides in all of us, he argues, hardwired into our DNA by ancestry dating back millions of years. You’ll learn how to view life the way a top-performing athlete does: relentlessly, tenaciously, positively, and focusing less on the finish line of the marathon and more on the 26.2 miles that precede it. With narrative support ranging from the lessons of our early ancestors to Mandelbaum’s stories of our modern-day gladiators (both household name and lesser known), The Win Within will give you a greater understanding of how and why we’re all hardwired to win—and you’ll come away with no shortage of tactics and motivation to capture your own victorious spirit.
