Faith, Flag, and Family: A Memoir on Leadership

The overarching theme woven throughout this book is a commitment to the call of service. Service is an essential feature to be cultivated and maintained. The immediacy of our individual wants must be secondary to the needs of those who stand before us. An extended hand requires much more than a token offering, and those who have long suffered under oppression require that we extend ourselves fully and with great altruism.

Throughout my career, I have offered guidance and counsel to many. I found that by offering my written sentiments regarding service in support of others, those in receipt of my writings were especially receptive; and throughout my career, countless individuals sought me out for personal and professional advice. My intention to write this book is to offer guidance to a widening audience. Rather than sequential chapters, each title contained herein is a selection to be enjoyed as I trust my words will spark the reader's interest. Each chapter is intended to serve as a testimonial to be referenced along life's journey. To the reader of each of these short essays, I wish you great success and, of course, many blessings.
