ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

Publicly I want to acknowledge the hand of my Heavenly Father in this work. For without his inspiration and guiding influence none of this work would have been accomplished. Personally I want to thank my devoted and inspired wife. My name may be on the cover, but many of these experiences and words came from her. She is my constant and true north. To my kids, who prayed that I may finish early so we could play, may this work be an inspiration to you. To my parents, who have been the greatest example of how to make other people feel important, especially my saintly mother. You are the reason this book came to be. To my other mother and father, I was fortunate enough to be yours after marrying your daughter. Your support over the years has been nothing short of a miracle. To my siblings on both sides of the family, I pull from your example and strength. D.R., without your constant, challenging, and thought-provoking inquiries this message could never have come to pass. You are too internal to have your name in print, but you know where you stand with me and this work. Jeff Roldan, without your gifted talents and commitment to this work I would not be here today. Lindi Stoler, without your constant guiding influence and patience I never would have made this book. Steve Troha, your enthusiasm nurtured this idea from a concept to a worldwide book.
