Dr. Seuss wrote in his book, I Can Read With My Eyes Shut, “The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you’ll go.” One of the most inspiring things you can do is spend time with someone who is continuously learning. Why? Because such people are growing stronger, wiser and for the Christian – becoming more and more like Jesus everyday! Our guest today has seen the Lord take him to many places in his career in business, leadership and ministry. He’s with us to share about his exciting journey and some of the insights God has taught him along the way.
