What Happened to Moderation?: A Common-Sense Approach to Improving Our Health and Treating Common Illnesses in an Age of Extremes

Today we live in a world of extremes, in our politics, in our media, and even when it comes to our health and fitness. Contemporary “experts” advocate narrow dietary regimens in an array of vegetarian, gluten-free, dairy-free, or organic options. We get similar recommendations for exercise—a simple two-mile run or lifting weights for thirty minutes will no longer suffice, now it’s about competing in a Spartan Run or a marathon, and CrossFit workouts are now the rage.

by M. Gasby Brown

And faith-based nonprofits require a special type of leader to navigate the business side of the organization if they have serious hopes to make a real impact.
