3Do you want to truly thrive in life instead of merely survive? Do you want a vibrant relationship with God? To not only know about Him, but know Him in a more intimate way? Do you desire to have more purpose, peace, and joy in your life and less anxiety, doubt, and discouragement? Does the Bible seem too difficult to really understand and apply to your life? TAKE FIVE TO THRIVE WILL help you grow in each of these areas, and it will not take much more than around five minutes a day. I am a husband, father of four, and I have six grandchildren. I have coached children ages K-12 in Physical Education for 20 years and have Pastored for over 20 years. I wrote about the inspiration for this book in the introduction part of my manuscript. I enjoy hiking, working out, reading, watching sports and eating pizza!
