'A Tale of Three Ships' is an extended parable about the three possible directions every person's life may take. It is a compelling reflection on the quality and significance of life aboard the sinking ship, whose motto is survival; the cruise ship, whose motto is enjoyment; and the battleship, whose purpose is meaningful influence. In its pages you will discover guidelines for discovering your 'extraordinary dream'; and the great, though difficult, adventure of bringing it to reality.

This book is dedicated to the belief that everyone is meant to live life at full-throttle. That we are all meant to be “vanilla-busters”; men and women who refuse to settle for an ordinary, mundane, adventure-deleted life. It is about abandoning the security and safety of the bleachers to enter into the dangers and glories of the playing field. It’s about giving up small dreams and bite-sized ambitions so that we can take hold of dreams and ambitions big enough to make our stay on planet earth worthwhile. It’s refusing to allow someone else to do our risk-taking, and daring to live life at full throttle. It’s about saying “no” to vanilla, and shouting “yes” to life. Jim Collins, in his best-selling book “Good to Great”, wrote an outstanding analysis of what separates the very best companies from the myriads of good ones. In it he carefully details the central, key, non-negotiable characteristics which marked each of these very best companies. In a very similar way, “Say ‘No’ to Vanilla” does the exact same thing - only with people instead of companies. What are those few, key, non-negotiable traits which separate great existences from good or mediocre ones? What does it take to upgrade one’s life from “good to great”? Or another way to put it, what are “the common threads of uncommon lives”? For more than five decades, best-selling author Dwight Edwards has been studying and pondering this very issue. In this landmark book, he discusses in fascinating and compelling detail the five key components of individuals who have dared to become the best they could become and elevated their lives from good to great. The book is packed full of historical and biographical illustrations to support his five key traits. This is a book you cannot afford not to read!

"Nobody disputes it. The first 300 years of Christianity were epic years. They were the legendary years of unparalleled gospel penetration. In them we find the storied days of the church’s radical, wholesale participation in spreading the gospel’s stunningly good news far and wide. Somehow—with no printing press, no church buildings, no seminaries, no radio or television, no mass mailings, no Internet, no Christian concerts, no church growth experts, and most of all, no clergy—these Christ-followers remain unrivaled in the “gospeling” of the world in their day. In fact, the stunning historical reality is this–Christianity was at its best when it had no clergy and no church buildings! But how could this be? The reason is both profoundly simple and profoundly powerful. Like great athletes, the early Christ-followers simply did the basics extraordinarily, tirelessly, and relentlessly well. What then were these basics? What made them so powerful? Most of all, could they be replicated in our day? Game-Changing Christianity is the highly provocative, deeply encouraging, and radically challenging answer to these critical questions."

"One of the fundamental misunderstandings the first-century world had in regard to Jesus was that He had come to stir up an outward, political revolution. Dwight Edwards reminds us in his powerful book that the revolution, like the kingdom, is essentially within--that Jesus is still a King whose kingdom is the heart.” --Michael Card, recording artist and author of A Violent Grace What Actually Happened When You Came to Christ? Because of what God has done for every believer, you actually possess outlandish treasures you may never have dreamed existed. God has made "New Covenant" promises to each of us. And in fulfillment of those promises, He has placed within every believer four revolutionary provisions: a new purity, a new disposition, a new identity, and a new power. These lavish supernatural resources permanently reside within your soul right now--ready for release every day of your life on earth! Revolution Within shows what these four provisions really are and how to release them, so you can experience all the best God has for you. And when you do, you fulfill your God-given purpose in life. Because God doesn’t want us just to be spiritually whole but to be spiritually provocative. As you tap into this vibrant eternal reality, you’ll experience fresh intimacy with God, new liberty, a deepened sense of community with other believers, and a new capacity for ministry. And through it all you’ll grow in your passion for what God Himself is most passionate about: His glory.
