Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.

I am an executive for one of the largest camping ministries in all of the world, Word of Life Fellowship. I use my gifts to help organizations work through conflict and then help them find a way out to find success. I also help them with understanding who they are as an organization and can help guide them in strategic planning that fit around their vision and mission. If they do not have those things, I will guide them through that process as well. My strength is in non-profit success, but I also have experience in the for profit secture.

What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?

I wrote the book Ceasefire after spending the last 25 years learning how people respond during conflict, how I personally handled conflict. There are times in which I handled it well, and many times I wish I could go back and handle it better. I have seen many lives crippled because of conflict and my hope is I can help them find a way to work through their own personal reconciliation as well as reconciliation with others. I know that this is not always possible between 2 parties, but if nothing else we can help people find peace in working through it correctly.
