Go Long!

release date: Jan 29, 2008
Go Long!
In Go Long! Jerry Rice shares the inspirational lessons and empowering practices that have helped him attain success, both on the football field and off. Through the ups and downs of Rice’s life and incomparable career, we discover how self-motivation, determination, and humility are the keys to achievement and true fulfillment. It’s been a long journey for Jerry Rice, from his childhood as a bricklayer’s son in Crawford, Mississippi, to a berth in the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Along the way, Rice has been fueled by tireless effort and a belief in a few simple principles, among them that achievement is a voyage, not a destination; that modesty and perseverance, not talent, are what determine how far you will go; and that everyone should strive to be a role model. Rice even demonstrates these rules in action, breaking down the greatest games from his stellar career. Go Long! is an inspiring book by a living sports legend. More than that, however, it is the story of how Jerry Rice awakened the champion within, illustrating how we, too, can unlock inner greatness. “Rice was nobody’s fool as a player. He kept his tongue in check for most of his twenty-one-year career, understanding performance, not oratory, was his occupation. Now retired, Rice has taken the muzzle off [and] it is that persona which emerges from the book.” –Press Democrat (Santa Rosa, California)

These Are My Church Clothes
Set in the heart of Appalachia, where his stories about shootings, baptizing in icy creek waters during a snow storm, people living in an old school bus with no electric, a drunken hero God used to save the preacher''s own family from the unthinkable and even the best way to eat the head of a squirrel—Jerry Rice, in his own special southern vernacular, takes us on a journey with him deep into the mountains of Clay County, Kentucky.It is here we discover how he went from being a wheeling-dealing factory worker who would sell "chances" on a knife, then buy the same knife back and make money on it all over again—to becoming a born again Christian. After leaving his drinking, fun-seeking and anger filled life behind, Rice answered the call God placed on him to go and minister to the low-income families in Panco—a town where some would rally to help build a youth center and where some would bring shot-guns to a ballgame. Rice''s stay here would prove to be a rough and challenging experience but one that was blessed. Learn how (in these backwoods where the unemployment rate was sometimes as high as 65%) God used the willingness of one dedicated man and his wife to change the lives of those around them with the message of Jesus. With every nail he hammered and every mile he drove in the church van to pick up the youth—every time they opened their home to their community and with every meal they served—Jerry and his wife, Brenda worked hard as they gave of themselves with the goal of making life better for the citizens of Panco. See the myriad of pictures that chronicles their work and lives—from the small church they started with, to building a full court gymnasium for a youth center, running ball leagues and even building a company from the ground up that served as a place of employment for some of the people in the area for fifteen years. Jerry Rice is not a "man of letters" nor does the country-drawling, people-loving preacher from the Appalachia dip his pen into the same inkwell of the great writers of our time but the sheer "story" of what he and his faith in God were able to accomplish makes for fascinating and soul-stirring reading.This account of Brother Rice''s life is a faith builder and may speak more deeply to your heart than many other volumes of eloquent theological prose as it tells the very real story of what God can do with the life of one wise man who simply dared to trust in Him.

National Insecurity: why Do So Many in the World's Most Security Conscious Nation Live in Fear?.

National Insecurity: why Do So Many in the World's Most Security Conscious Nation Live in Fear?.
In 2017, the President proposed a budget that allocated sixty percent of US discretionary resources toward military spending, putting US military spending higher than that of the next eight nations combined. Despite this enormous allocation of resources, millions of Americans feel so insecure that they have decided to take steps to insure their own security. With stockpiles of food and weapons, in personal bunkers, these preppers are viewed by some as extreme in their approach. The purpose of this piece is to explore the causes and fears that drive prepping behavior, and what view these individuals have of the US federal government; the entity that is supposed to insure the security of the American public. Ultimately, this study concludes that cultural factors, such as religion and the way one is raised, are most likely the causes of one’s decision to prep. However, other factors such as personal history, identity, and personality, when taken in conjunction with culture, can intensify prepping behavior. Furthermore, with natural disasters and the threat of a global financial meltdown at the top of the list of fears for most preppers, there is little that a single nation-state can do to address these concerns. Rather, a more wide-spread multilateral approach is required of the key actors within the international community. Ultimately, most within the prepping community possess a somewhat negative view of the US federal government, but there is no evidence that such views have the traction that would ultimately lead to conflict between preppers and the American government.
