Agile methodologies have become a popular and widely accepted method for managing software development. However, despite this success, managing agile methods has proven to be a real challenge for most companies, particularly those with complex products such as IoT devices and large development environments. Many companies have been forced to adopt a hybrid version of agile and waterfall techniques, and this hybrid approach is fast becoming the norm rather than the exception in the industry. Metagility is the first book to provide a comprehensive approach for managing a new and highly effective breed of agility from the executive level on down. Based on scientific theory and practitioner research, it is the definitive playbook for those seeking the optimal solution for adapting agile to more complex product development and organizational contexts.

För länge sedan hittade Morifiskare ett övergivet barn på en flotte. Utan en enda ledtråd om pojkens förflutna hamnade han slutligen under den vandrande vålnadens beskydd, och blev känd i de djupa skogarna som djungelpojken Rex King.

You did everything right. You provided. You showed up. You stayed. You worked yourself raw for decades so your family would never go without. And somewhere in the middle of all that doing, your marriage went quiet. Not the peaceful kind of quiet. The kind that sits between two people at a dinner table where nobody has anything left to say.She is across the room. She has been across the room for years. You share a house, a last name, a bed, and almost nothing else. You are not fighting. You are not falling apart in any way the outside world would recognize. You are fine. And "e;fine"e; is the most dangerous word in the English language, because it is the lie two people agree to tell when the truth is too heavy to hold.Together on Paper: Strangers in Reality is not a marriage book for newlyweds. It is not a devotional. It is not a twelve-step program wrapped in Bible verses and tied with a bow. It is a direct, unflinching conversation written by a man, for men—specifically for men in their fifties and sixties who have spent decades building a life and only recently realized they forgot to build a marriage.David Bishop writes the way an engineer diagnoses a system failure: methodically, honestly, and without sentiment. Using the language of process control—setpoints, drift, calibration, autopilot—he maps the slow erosion that turned your marriage from a living relationship into a routine you maintain out of habit. Every chapter is anchored in scripture, not as decoration, but as the diagnostic manual for a covenant you made before God and have been running on fumes ever since.The book is built in six parts. The Diagnosis names what is happening in your marriage and why you cannot see it—the performance you put on at church, the slow fade you mistook for stability, the word "e;fine"e; you use as a shield. How You Got Here traces the forces that pulled you apart: the career that consumed you, the children who became the center, the phone in your hand, and the silence you built brick by brick. The Man in the Mirror turns the lens inward, because before you can fix the marriage, you have to face the man who broke it—his ego, his emotional bankruptcy, his spiritual drought, and the anger he has been drinking like poison for years.Then the book shifts. The Woman Across the Room asks you to see your wife again—not the woman you married, but the woman she became while you were not looking, the weight she has been carrying alone, and what she stopped telling you because she gave up believing you would hear it. The Rebuild gives you the tools: the conversation that changes everything, the slow work of rebuilding trust, learning to fight clean, and the recalibration that a dead marriage requires. The Long Road is about staying—not staying married, which you have already done, but being married, which is something else entirely. Covenant versus contract. Daily bread versus grand gestures. And the legacy you are writing for your children whether you intend to or not.Every chapter ends with The Mirror—a set of reflection exercises that will not let you hide. This is not a book that lets you off the hook. It is a book that hands you the hook and says, here, this is yours, you put it there, now do something about it.The final chapter is a letter. Not to you. To her. Because the hardest words a man will ever write are the ones that begin with I see you now, and I am sorry it took me this long.If your marriage is not in crisis but it is not alive either—if you are sharing a life on paper but living as strangers in reality—this book was written at a kitchen table for you.

You lie awake at 3 AM, replaying what they did. The mental loop runs again—the betrayal, the abandonment, the injustice, the cruel words, the conversation you should have had. Your mind maintains a ledger of everything they owe you: apologies that never came, changed behavior you never saw, suffering they never experienced, explanations that would never satisfy anyway.The ledger never balances. And maintaining it is destroying you.This book reveals why the ledger can't balance—and how to close it anyway.The problem isn't your bookkeeping. The system itself is structurally broken. The currencies of relational debt don't convert—their suffering doesn't purchase your healing. The payments are never sufficient—even sincere apologies don't undo damage. And most debtors can't pay anyway—they're gone, dead, unaware, unwilling, or incapable.You're waiting for payment from people who will never pay. Not because they've decided against it, but because payment was never going to be possible.Meanwhile, you're paying a terrible price. The resentment compounds like debt, doubling every decade. What started as a hundred-dollar injury is now a ten-thousand-dollar grudge. The bitter root spreads underground, defiling relationships that had nothing to do with the original wound. Your spouse pays for your father's cruelty. Your children inherit patterns that started generations before they were born.But there's another way.Forgiveness isn't saying what they did was okay—it wasn't and isn't. It isn't forgetting—you can't delete memories. It isn't weakness—releasing takes more strength than holding. It isn't reconciling—that requires two willing people. And it isn't a feeling—it's a decision.Forgiveness is deciding to cancel a debt you have every right to collect, knowing you'll never be paid. It's closing an account that was never going to balance. It's choosing your freedom over their payment.This book walks you through understanding your specific wounds—betrayal, abandonment, injustice, broken covenants, stolen innocence, public humiliation. It exposes why common strategies fail—waiting for apologies, fantasizing about punishment, seeking validation from crowds, keeping score in marriage. And it provides a practical methodology for actually releasing the debts you've carried, some for decades.Drawing on faith, relationship expertise, and clear-eyed analysis, each chapter moves you closer to the freedom waiting on the other side of that closed ledger.The wound was real. The debt is unpayable. Freedom is possible.Close the ledger. Reclaim your life.Book 5 of The Reclaimed Soul Series.

A forty-six-year-old lawyer sits in a conference room, taking a deposition. The witness is discussing quarterly projections. He is cataloging her body.This is Daniel's confession.For thirty years, he has carried the weight of the male gaze—the automatic, relentless assessment of women that runs beneath the surface of his respectable life. He's a faithful husband, a devoted father, a church member in good standing. He has never physically cheated. But his eyes tell a different story.In this unflinching narrative, Daniel traces the roots of his struggle through biology, culture, and the spiritual wound that goes back to Eden. He counts the cost—what his gaze takes from the women who bear it, what it erodes in his own soul, what it threatens in his marriage to Karen and his relationships with his daughter Sophie and son Ethan.But this is not merely a confession. It is a roadmap.Drawing from the ancient wisdom of Job's covenant with his eyes and the teachings of Jesus in the Sermon on the Mount, Daniel develops practical disciplines for transformation: the art of noticing, interrupting, and replacing the gaze. He confronts the lies that keep men trapped and discovers the truths that set them free. He risks everything by telling Karen the full truth—and finds that honesty, not secrecy, is the path to healing.Eyes of a Man is for every man who has wondered if change is possible. For every woman who has felt the weight of being watched. For every couple seeking deeper intimacy built on truth rather than hiding. For every father who wants to pass on something better than what he received.Part memoir, part theological reflection, part practical guide, this book combines the narrative tension of literary fiction with the spiritual depth of classic Christian writing. It offers no easy answers, no quick fixes, no promises of instant victory. What it offers instead is hope—the hard-won hope of a man still fighting, still failing, still pressing forward toward the new eyes he believes are possible.The struggle is real. You are not alone. Transformation awaits.

Forty years of maintaining the generation ship Concordia taught Marcus Chen one thing: trust the data, not the comfortable lies.When routine sensor readings reveal a pattern that shouldn't exist, Marcus stumbles onto something the ship's leadership has spent sixty years hiding. Document TM-7749 predicted a convergence of cascading system failures that could kill thousands. The warnings were buried. The engineers who found the truth died under suspicious circumstances. And the ship's aging infrastructure is failing exactly as predicted.Now Marcus has 47 days to expose a conspiracy that reaches the highest levels of ship governance, repair systems that have been neglected for generations, and convince twelve thousand people that their world is dying around them.Standing in his way: a political faction that built its power on comfortable lies, a security apparatus designed to silence dissent, and the simple human tendency to believe that someone else will fix the problem.His only allies: a young engineer who hasn't learned to stop asking questions, a physician who recognizes murder when she sees it, a security officer whose family died for the truth, and three AI systems that have been waiting sixty years for someone to finally listen.The Watchdog Timer is a hard science fiction thriller that combines authentic industrial automation detail with a tense countdown narrative. Written by an author with 39 years of experience in automation engineering, it explores themes of institutional decay, technical debt, and the quiet heroism of the people who keep complex systems running while everyone else sleeps.

It's 3 AM. You're staring at the ceiling while your spouse sleeps beside you. Your mind races through every unresolved argument, every fear about money, every worry about your children, every disappointment you've been carrying for years. The silence is deafening, and the distance between you and the person lying next to you feels like miles.You're not alone.Wide Awake is for every husband and wife who has lain awake wondering if their marriage will survive—and wondering if they even want it to. It's for the spouse who has spent more energy cataloging their partner's faults than examining their own heart. It's for anyone who has asked God for help and heard only silence in return.At the center of this book is The Mirror Principle, drawn from Matthew 7:3-5. Before you examine your spouse, examine yourself. Before you try to fix your marriage, let God fix you. The clearest view of your relationship comes only after an honest look in the mirror.This isn't comfortable advice. But it's transformative.Author David Bishop writes from the trenches of his own marriage, exploring themes that most Christian books avoid: the physical toll of worry that shows up in nail-biting and hair loss, the hypervigilance that makes your spouse feel like an enemy, the inability to receive love without suspicion, and the faith crisis that often sits at the heart of marital struggle.Wide Awake addresses the real questions couples face: What do you do when you've stopped believing God can fix anything? How do you love someone you don't particularly like? What happens when helping your spouse becomes a wall instead of a bridge? How do you rebuild trust after betrayal? And how do you keep going when every instinct tells you to quit?Across 96 chapters organized in 11 parts, this book covers the full landscape of marriage:The Mirror Principle and honest self-examination. The body's response to chronic worry and stress. Financial fears, health anxiety, and worry about your children. Rethinking love as action rather than feeling. Speaking your spouse's love language fluently. The God factor—prayer, forgiveness, and spiritual intimacy. Navigating a faith crisis within your marriage. The gratitude revolution that changes everything. Conflict as construction rather than destruction. Rebuilding emotional, spiritual, and physical intimacy. The long obedience of habits, grace, and perseverance.Each chapter opens with Scripture, delivers practical biblical wisdom, and closes with a Mirror Question designed for personal reflection or couple discussion.Wide Awake doesn't promise a perfect marriage. It offers something better: an honest path toward becoming the spouse God has called you to be, regardless of what your partner does. Because the greatest marriages aren't built by two people waiting for each other to change. They're built by two people who each take full responsibility for their own growth.The sleepless hours don't have to be wasted hours. They can become the very place where God does His deepest work.If you're ready to stop diagnosing your spouse and start examining yourself, this book is for you.
