Really, I'm just a storyteller.
In more than 30 books and having spoken to audiences in 20 states, I'm humbled to say my stories deliver unexpected takeaways that often change lives.
Dads connect with their kids. Marriages are strengthened. Conflict is resolved. God’s plan unfolds. Optimism sneaks in.
My latest book and talk is right in my sweet spot. Cheering on grandparents. This may be my legacy book. It's beautifully designed and makes a pretty sweet gift -- even for yourself!
Somehow -- with all my books -- I make it fun.
Looking for your next good read or someone to keynote an event? My books and talks cover a lot of ground. Let's chat.
