“This is a MUST read!”

Five Star Review on AmazonĀ By Gary J. Blanchard

Steve states Mile 1 is the minimum; Mile two is an attitude that leads to an extraordinary life! The book is contagious. Once you start reading you can’t put it down (I finished it in two reading sessions). Steve is a literary craftsman painting word pictures that communicate in powerful ways. For example a whole chapter on the word resolute; another providing a contemporary view of the Good Samaritan who becomes a better neighbor than Mr. Rogers; and stories from Steve’s experiences growing up on the mission field and serving as a church pastor. Each effective in challenging the reader to become a Mile 2 person. This is required reading for personal growth; improving team performance and improving service.
