#1 bestselling author Ken Follett tells the inspiring true story of the Middle East hostage crisis that began in 1978, and of the unconventional means one American used to save his countrymen. . . . When two of his employees were held hostage in a heavily guarded prison fortress in Iran, one man took matters into his own hands: businessman H. Ross Perot. His team consisted of a group of volunteers from the executive ranks of his corporation, handpicked and trained by a retired Green Beret officer. To free the imprisoned Americans, they would face incalculable odds on a mission that only true heroes would have dared. . . .

“[With Wings Like Eagles is] bold and refreshing… Korda writes with great elegance and flair.”—Wall Street Journal From the New York Times bestselling author of Ike and Horse People, Michael Korda, comes With Wings Like Eagles, the harrowing story of The Battle of Britain, one of the most important battles of World War II. In the words of the Washington Post Book World, “With Wings Like Eagles is a skillful, absorbing, often moving contribution to the popular understanding of one of the few episodes in history … to deserve the description ‘heroic.’”

But those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not be weary, they will walk and not be faint.(Isaiah 40:31 KJV)The eagle is a majestic bird that represents inspiration and courage. According to my research, it is the only bird that will not try to avoid a storm. Though eagles don't seek out a storm, when one occurs, they hang on until they can soar above it.It occurs to me that some people are like eagles. It isn't that they have no storms or difficulties in their lives; all of us do. What makes them “eagle people” is their tenacious hold on hope. When a storm comes, instead of worrying, they draw upon the inner resources that come from faith to rise above the storm and soar.In this book, we will explore the resources available to us as Christians when storms suddenly appear upon our horizons. Among these resources are the Bible, the revealed Word of God; prayer; worship; and the example and encouragement of Christian friends, family members, co-workers, and neighbors. When we use these God-given resources, we too can “soar like an eagle”!—adapted from the introductionEach chapter includes a key Scripture verse, personal stories and anecdotes, practical and spiritual insights for inspiration and encouragement in weathering the storms of life, and questions for reflection or discussion. Some chapters also include “An Eagle Challenge”—a specific suggestion for implementing a particular principle in your life.

Keeping a journal, such as the Soar On Wings Of Eagles LuxLeather Journal, along your faith journey allows you to write your thoughts to the Lord, ask questions, record prayers, and jot down new teachings from Bible study. Each morning, write down a prayer for the day and end the day with a reflection in this Christian journal.

At a time of great importance in the history of life on the planet, human beings find themselves with enormous economic and technological power, but also with a terrible inner weakness. This book takes a careful look at our vulnerability and proposes some radical new pathways towards a life more in harmony with the natural world.

There is a powerful story behind this short uplifting book. Marguerite Remy-Esannason has been ministering for over 40 years to everyday people in sorrow, loss and need. But unknown to anyone else during all that time, she has been putting her feelings and inspirations into quiet poems. These poems were a dormant treasure. Only this past year, the epochal year 2020, after the deaths of Elder Marguerite's beloved husband and beloved mother, both of whom she cared for at home, did the poems "surface". All of a sudden, Elder's short and deeply personal affirmations of faith in the face of impasse and sorrow came to light! They are a trove of encouragement, comfort and sustenance. We invite you to read one a day, or one a week. They are a pharmacy from God, composed in the crucible of human pain and also exaltation. They will take you there -- not exactly to Strawberry Fields but to the Place of Rest and Shalom, to your Place in God.
