Book: "Three Feet from Gold" by Sharon L. Lechter & Greg S. Reid

If you read Think and Grow Rich, you'll enjoy this read, and if you haven't read Think and Grow Rich, you'll enjoy this read.

The authors have tied facts, real people, fiction and time tested principles of perseverance into a well done story about changed lives.

Those of us who don't know when to quit will love this book because it will fuel our fires, those who don't persevere so well can gain some insight.

In any event, the book reads well and has a great story line.

To that end.....

Book: "The Preacher and The Presidents" by Nancy Gibbs and Michael Duffy

This-is-a-great-read. If you appreciate biographies and American history, you'll appreciate reading about Billy Graham and his relationship with Presidents Truman through George W.

I've read many other biographies and stories of these Presidents and this preacher, but Gibbs and Duffy have done an excellent work in bringing this important story to those that will take the time to read it.

Further evidence that Graham wasn't just a great leader, but a courageous follower. Here is more evidence that Graham truly wanted to bring the gospel to everyone he could, to disciple, to baptize, and to teach others to observe all that Jesus commanded.

Even in times of trouble, and mistakes.

What a great read!
