Carrie Lloyd
About this listen
With humor-filled personal tales and in-depth research, Carrie Lloyd will unfold the meaning behind the characteristics of nobility - self-sacrifice, humility, courage, self-conquest, integrity, honesty - all required for nurturing noble virtues.
What would happen if we intentionally chose to live a life of nobility? If we thought of our fellow man before ourselves? In a world littered with lawsuits, hate mail, and demands for punishment, when did we stop caring for our neighbor? When did we set aside the cause and effect of our decisions? When did we rest on the hidden laurels of contempt, instead of working a little harder, to bring fruit and morality based on forethought over legalism?
"The noble man makes noble plans and by noble plans he stands," Isaiah tells us. The finest characters in Scripture often carried this descriptor in their back pockets, and such labels didn’t always follow their wealth - but followed their integrity.
Could we become a little more effective, a little kinder if we consciously began to ask, “What’s the noble choice?”

Is my ordinary, everyday life actually significant? Is it okay to be fulfilled by the simple acts of raising kids, working in an office, and cooking chicken for dinner? Melanie Shankle tackles these questions head-on. Easygoing and relatable, she speaks directly to the heart of women of all ages who are longing to find significance and meaning in the normal, sometimes mundane world of driving carpool to soccer practice, attending class on their college campus, cooking meals for their family, or taking care of a sick loved one.

Organizational psychologist and executive coach Rebecca Newton has found that even her most successful clients still want more of one quality: gravitas. They want their words to carry weight, to have a positive, lasting impact on those around them. Gravitas can seem like an elusive, intangible quality, but it isn't about adopting the style of another or being someone you're not. Newton draws on extensive research and experience coaching business leaders to show what underpins authentic gravitas and how anyone can develop it.

Guys often approach life like it’s a pickup football game. They make up the rules as they go. They are sloppy rather than disciplined. Many lose interest and simply watch from the sidelines. Yet a man who knows who he was made to be and what he’s pursuing is a powerful force indeed. In Rise of the Servant Kings, Ken Harrison, the chairman of Promise Keepers and a former Los Angeles police officer, gives men the keys to success and gets them into the battle.

Blown away
Carrie is a beautiful writer, with a heart that Radiates straight from the heart of God. Every story one that hits deep into the heart of the listener/reader, and every chapter a deeper look into the endless ocean of Gods love. I am encouraged, moved, and alight from this gorgeous reminder of why I fell in love with Jesus in the first place, and why I ever want to grow more in love with Him each day.

A very profound book.
I cannot recommend this book enough. Ms Lloyd brings a perspective and a humility to the subject that should make us all long to become men and women of Noble character. For those who are atheists, dice deeply. For those whose faith has grown ritualistic and boring, where the meaning and purpose of life is lost in some kind of label, run to He who shaped a beautiful single woman who was an atheist and who became a person who has encountered the living, God, As I’m still processing this fine book, in trying to describe this message from the author, it seems more like a song, whose words and music are higher than anyone can hear. Read with wonder and be expectant for your song and your light and purpose to touch many. There is healing in these pages. It was for me and can be for anyone who is seeking asking or knocking. Thank you Carrie Lloyd for sharing your fears, your weaknesses failure and your beautiful walk; for sharing the lover of our souls. Respectfully Bill Steinwedell

This book so beautifully written and packed full of gold nuggets I know I will go back on and reference and apply for the rest of my life. Carrie can step on my toes and encourage me in the same breath. The balance of hard truth and grace and mercy is truly what our world is groaning for (in my personal opinion). Thank you Carrie for this book. It’s a true gift to all those who read. This a great book for group study and discussion. :)

Courageous Book by a Genuine Person
This is a sweet book, sweet natured. You want Carrie Lloyd as a neighbor.
It's cool to read this inspirational book by a person aspiring to maximize her excellence in something she cares about.
Being an aristocrat of the soul, now that is awesome. I did not think I would like this book, but I do. It's great and I almost don't feel worthy of Mrs. Lloyd's courageous efforts in giving us this book.
