Discover and Develop Your Strengths -- in College and Beyond

College is a chance for you to start fresh. You get to learn and grow in ways that will amaze you. You get to write your own story.

So what do you want your college story to be?

As a student, you have the opportunity every day to search for patterns in your actions, learn from them and use them to make the most of your life experiences, now and in the future. To do that, you need a solid understanding of where and when you're at your best: your strengths.

CliftonStrengths for Students will help you discover and develop your strengths -- and reach your full potential.

This book includes an access code to take the CliftonStrengths assessment. After you take the assessment, you'll get a list of your top five themes of talent, which are the themes you lead with. Once you know what your leading themes are, you can begin to turn them into strengths.

CliftonStrengths for Students will also give you suggestions for developing and using your strengths in college and in the real world. If you understand and apply your strengths, your college journey -- and the rest of your life -- will be happier, more fulfilling and more successful. That's the point of developing your strengths. When you do more of what you do best, you build your life around your areas of greatness.

So let's get started. Your strengths journey begins here!

The greatest gifts from our Founding Fathers are the two most fundamental documents in American politics. This quick, easy reference for our federal government's structure, powers, and limitations includes:

Signed by the members of the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia on September 17, 1787, The Constitution outlines the powers and responsibilities of the three chief branches of the federal government (executive branch, judicial branch, legislative branch), as well as the basic rights of the citizens of the United States (freedom of speech, freedom of the press, freedom of religion, etc.)

The Declaration of Independence was crafted by Thomas Jefferson in June of 1776 and it provides the foundation of American political philosophy. "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."

Collected here in one affordable, pocket-sized volume are some of the most valued pieces of writing in the history of our country. This edition contains The Constitution of the United States of America, including The Bill of Rights and all of the subsequent amendments, as well as The Declaration of Independence.

These are word-for-word facsimiles of significant documents... Every American should own a copy.

It's the hot topic of the moment. Christians, the church and the Bible seem to be out of step with modern attitudes towards homosexuality. And there is growing hostility towards those who hold a different view to the culture's. So is God homophobic? And how do we relate to both Christians and non-Christians who experience same-sex attraction?

In this short, simple book, Sam Allberry wants to help confused Christians understand what God has said about these questions in the scriptures. Drawing on his own experience, he offers a positive and liberating way forward through the debate.

This revised and updated version includes answers to some new questions, including:
- Should Christians attend gay weddings?
- Isn't the Christian view of sexuality dangerous and harmful?
- Is it sinful to experience same-sex attraction?
