<p>Jesus says that if you want to enter his kingdom, you need to be a child again. No doubting the truth, scrambling for stuff, or fussing about the future. Just pure, simple living-and a faith that believes Christ's words, embraces his love, and follows his example. But how, in this complicated world, can adults live like that? According to Johnny Parker, they can listen and learn from the children around them. Kids teach profound spiritual truths. They're the prime example of childlike faith, and their insights transform lives. In this book, Parker shares fresh perspectives on life and God that he learned from watching his sons and reflecting on his own childhood. He has compiled these reminders into delightful, thought-provoking stories that inspire and encourage world weary adults. With Faith like a Child, they'll return to the simple joy of loving God.</p>

The Admiral summoned us all on the quarter deck and spun us a yarn... In his own words. 'Having been straddled twelve times and hit seven times we were in rather a bad way. So I gave the order to retire. We laid smoke screens and retired and to our relief, so did the Spee.'"</b> - Admiral Sir Henry Harwood.<br /> Hawkins also took on board some of the sailors who had seen action against the Graf Spee and a crewman of HMS Ajax gave Ronnie a full and bloody first hand true account...<b>"After the battle a lot of chaps were even scared to put to sea. Their nerves were shot all to pieces. I've had my bellyful of fighting and I'm not a coward, but when 11 inch shells come screaming at you, well I know why the Navy supply two pairs of pants."</b> - HMS Ajax seaman.<br /> Ronnie also had an epic description of the sinking of HMS Royal Oak at Scapa Flo from a lucky but embittered survivor...<b>"Sun 28th Jan 1940 Had a long talk with a survivor of Royal Oak, the first battleship to be sunk in the war. According to him the Royal Oak was never sunk by a torpedo. He says the explosion was internal and caused by explosives placed in stores. To clinch his argument he asks how a torpedo can get through a torpedo blister, 15 inches of armament and explode right in the centre of the ship."</b> - HMS Royal Oak survivor.<br /> <h3>Battle of the Atlantic</h3> For the first year of the war HMS Hawkins patrolled the South American lanes looking for German merchant raiders. She then went to Africa to escort the Winston Convoys to the Gulf and played a major part in the battle against Italy in Somalia, capturing several Italian ships.<br /> However, the war wasn't all action, most of the time was a tedium of endless watches punctuated with painting the ship grey and painting the ports red.<br /> My uncle's diary and photographs are another piece in the jigsaw of world war 2 history and a good insight into life in the Royal Navy at war.<br /> This short biography isn't a hero's tale, it's a true war story of an ordinary bloke, plucked from an ordinary job to have 'a smack at the Boche'.</p>

<p>Despite a seemingly endless supply of training programs promising enhanced athletic performance, the same questions inevitably plague strength and conditioning coaches. How do you initiate an athlete’s strength program and progress it over the course of not just a season, but a career? How will you know when it is time to progress, and how can you avoid the consequences of overtraining? How can you develop an athlete’s work capacity while increasing strength, power, and speed without completely sacrificing one quality for another?The answer to all of those questions lies in the systematic approach to program design outlined in The System.Hall of Fame strength coaches Johnny Parker, Al Miller, and Rob Panariello have spent their entire careers studying, testing, and refining the best practices and methods of Soviet-era sports science into a modern, practical approach to strength and conditioning for long-term athletic development. Their system of scientific programming and coaching produced not only powerful and resilient athletes, but also dominant championship teams spanning over three decades.Their distilled lessons and experiences will teach you:A structured approach to advance a novice athlete to a stronger and more powerful performerWhy simplicity in exercise selection is one key to athletic developmentThe critical training variables that can make or break progressHow planned—not random—variations in training will yield progressive and sustained physical gainsHow to integrate lifting, running, and jumping together to build explosive athletesThis book provides more than just a system of principles for optimal strength and conditioning program design. Rather, it provides an education in both the science and the art of coaching and will help you develop what the authors call the “Eye of the Coach” to ensure continued success for both you and your athletes.</p>
