Publisher's summary
It was the biggest job she had ever had, 10 times bigger in fact! And she thought she was ready. Ten days after accepting the job offer, Doe Hentschel smashed both her elbows in a bicycle accident. Six months with both arms in casts presented incredible challenges, generating numerous stories that Doe, a natural storyteller, recounts in Look Ma! No Hands!
An adult educator and lifelong learner herself, as well as the subject of a medical record that has been characterized as a “train wreck,” Doe draws life lessons from her experiences which capture her philosophy of life and leadership, which will inspire listeners facing challenges of their own.

Story
The alarm clock rings in a new day and a chance to rejoice in it. After all: "This is the day the Lord has made. We will rejoice and be glad in it."But what about those days when the traffic snarls, airports close, and friends forget? Is there any hope for the days riddled with the hang-ups and bang-ups of life? In Great Day Every Day, Max Lucado unpacks Jesus' blueprint for dealing with such days: Saturate your day in Jesus' grace. Entrust your day to his oversight. Accept his direction. It's the only prescription to fill your day with God-given purpose.

Are you ready to move from insecure to God secure? From regret riddled to better-because-of-it? From afraid to die to ready to fly? Today, find freedom in God's grace. We often talk about grace, but do we really understand it? Grace politely occupies a phrase in a hymn and fits nicely on a church sign. It never causes trouble or demands a response. When asked, "Do you believe in grace?" who could say no? Best-selling author and pastor Max Lucado helps us dive deeper into what it means to be changed by grace.

Do the voices in your head say you're not good enough, smart enough, pretty enough...or just not enough, period? It's time to stop listening to lies that sabotage your confidence and embrace the truth of who God says you are. Popular author and speaker Sharon Jaynes exposes the lies that keep you bogged down in shame, insecurity, and feelings of inadequacy. By recognizing the lies and replacing them with truth, you'll be able to silence the voice inside that whispers you're just not good enough, accept God's grace and move past failures that have defined and confined you.

Story
Not everyone may frequent the church on the corner, but we each have a place of worship. For some, it's at the office. For others, before the mirror. Still others, on the basketball court. You were created to worship! So you naturally find a place to do it. But to worship anything less than God robs both Him and us. It's at the foot of the cross where we reel, trying to comprehend how a holy God could chase us down with kindness and redeem us from an eternity of futile gods.

Inspiring story beautifully read by the author
I read this book when it first came out and I’ve just listened to it read by the author. I loved reading it and I’ve loved even more listening to it because of her expressiveness and ability to bring her experience alive. It is a story of learning to deal with life not having her arms and hands available because of a terrible bike accident that greatly damaged both her elbows. She had full length casts on her arms with them crossed on her chest. It is a story of her using manure as fertilizer. I have the privilege of knowing Doe and that is how she lives her life. She is an inspiration both with her teaching and with her living.
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
