Simple messages with great biblical depth to inspire. You will be blessed if you buy this book.

In this book Dan does an amazing job of showing us a modern-day biblical perspective that is not only highly applicable, but interesting and entertaining.

Dan Holland has hit a home run with this book! It is encouraging and applies to us today as believers in Christ to have a heart like Joshua and apply the truths that I had never seen about him before. I hope you enjoy this book as much as I did and change some things on how you lead others. I know it has impacted me, and I will look at things differently now going forward in my life.

Ive held leadership positions in the corporate world for more than three decades. Ive also had the chance to serve and lead in community-based organizations. 70 Seconds addresses many of the issues that Ive dealt with as a leader.

A successful leader must have strong core values that keep them focused on who they are. Hollands examples of how Joshua found success by following Gods will reminds us of staying true to our core values and continuing to seek.

His Ten Leadership Highlights are on point. Anyone in a leadership position should read these and post them by their desk. I was particularly struck his your assessment that under Joshua, the Israelites discovered that its on Gods timetable, not ours.

I also took note of his chapters Dealing with Trouble and Get Back Up. From personal experience I believe that a successful life is built on years of overcoming failures. I believe we are judged not on what we have, but what we do with what we have.

Hollands study of Joshua reminds us to accept accountability (a rare trait in America these days) and get back on our feet after we fail.

He provides another treasure on the book with his 6 Steps to Regaining Confidence after Failure.

Finally, he makes the point that Gods charge to Joshua can be read in 70 Seconds. Too often we over think our charge when we should Keep It Simple.

Stan Knott, USA Pyramid Management

70 seconds is an example of Joshua developing and flexing his spiritual muscle in leading a stiff-necked people to the promised land. Its refreshing to know that even in our day today, following Joshuas example still works! The author knows this wellI watched him live it!

Bob Beckler, Senior Pastor,
Central Community Church

This book will serve as a resource guide for many leaders. Dan Holland teaches us through the life of Joshua that leadership matters on every level. Joshua used his experiences as a place of reference, but not as a place of residence. This resource will be a compass for many to navigate through the changing seasons of leadership.

David S. Jacques, Pastor of The Kingdom Church

In todays way of thinking, faith, love and contentment have disappeared because of a separation from God. In 70 Seconds, Dan Holland gives a blue print for life, love and leadership. It doesnt matter how young or old you are, 70 Seconds reminds us that there are hardships and missteps as seen through biblical history, but you can overcome by faith in Jesus. Dan conveys, in an incredible and understandable way, with God we can overcome and thrive.

Jim Morris, The Rookie

In 70 Seconds Dan Holland opens a door into the life and leadership of Joshua, exploring not only the fascinating history of Gods very personal dealings with the Israelites after the wilderness wanderings, but also the driving forces that formed and sustained one of Israels most versatile commanders. With clear insight and warm personal anecdotes, Holland illustrates the How To of putting faith into action and claiming Gods promises and rewards for God-given leadership at all levels. I heartily recommend this book to anyone wondering what God has in store for them, and how, exactly, to get started building a monument worthy life.
