Based on the critically acclaimed dramatic film and inspired by true events, No Address shows how homelessness can happen to anyone. No Address is a gripping tale about a group of individuals who find themselves homeless due to unfortunate circumstances. It provides a realistic portrayal of their fight for survival against the gangs, vigilantes, and an uncompassionate community. The first character we meet is Lauren, a recent high school graduate who returns to her foster home only to find herself locked out. Having been in foster care since her mother passed away unexpectedly when she was eight, Lauren has no family or true friends to rely on. With no place to stay, she finds herself on the street and vulnerable. We also meet Jimmy, who left home at the young age of sixteen to escape his father’s abuse only to find himself now spiraling down into a world of homelessness. A kindhearted homeless veteran finds him sleeping on a bench and takes him under his wing, introducing him to his street family, mentally ill Dora … drug user Violet … and now a runaway Jimmy. Finally, we have Robert, a successful real estate broker who struggles as an addictive gambler. This problem has put his job, his family, and his whole livelihood in jeopardy. Will Robert travel down the road of homelessness? As these individuals navigate the challenges of daily life in unimaginable circumstances, they encounter life-threatening challenges that never seem to end. Despite every obstacle, they find strength and resilience to overcome these hardships through their unbreakable bond and true friendship. No Address is a story of the endurance of the human spirit, offering hope for a better tomorrow.

Two-time heavyweight champion of the world and record-busting businessman George Foreman has spent his career challenging prevailing conceptions of success and achievement.

You’ll learn how to focus on smart growth, fearlessly seize opportunities, and build an organization of significance.

The long-awaited, deeply personal story of one of American music's greatest icons, a remarkable tale of the utmost heights of fame and success, the deepest lows of life's sorrows, and a miraculous return from the brink of death--told as only Randy Travis can. Beloved around the world, Randy Travis has sold more than 25 million albums in both country and gospel and is considered one of the finest performers of his generation, admired by superstars across the musical landscape, from Garth Brooks to Mick Jagger. From a working-class background in North Carolina to a job as a cook and club singer in Nashville to his "overnight success" with his smash 1986 album Storms of Life--which launched the neotraditional movement in country music--Randy's first three decades are a true rags-to-riches story. But in 2009, this seemingly charmed life began a downward spiral. His marriage dissolved, he discovered that his finances had unraveled, and his struggles with anger led to alcohol abuse, public embarrassment, and even police arrest in 2012. Then, just as he was putting his life back together, Randy suffered a devastating viral cardiomyopathy that led to a massive stroke which he was not expected to survive. Yet he not only survived but also learned to walk again and in 2016 accepted his induction into the Country Music Hall of Fame by singing the hymn that explains his life today: "Amazing Grace." Filled with never-before-told stories, Forever and Ever, Amen is a riveting tale of unfathomable success, great joy, deep pain, and redemption that can come only from above.

"In the twinkling of an eye, their lives changed forever. Husbands, wives, children, all lost in what was first called "the disappearance." Now many understand that with millions of Christians called home, the Rapture has irrevocably torn the fabric of their lives. They wander, rootless and searching, in the wake of events nearly too powerful, too overwhelming to comprehend." "Some set out on a personal odyssey to reconnect with family, their past, with some semblance of order in a world menaced by the Muslim mujahideen. Offering hope, Azul Dante and his Prodigal Project remain a beacon in the swirling maelstrom of uncertainty that threatens to engulf nations, ideologies, and faiths." "While on quiet street corners, in darkened homes, abandoned offices, wherever two or more are gathered, a small band of believers begins again to spread the Word."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
