BOOKS & STUDY GUIDES
Ideas Worth Exploring. Lessons Worth Living.
Life and leadership bring questions worth exploring and decisions that matter.
Through books, speaking, and practical reflections, I share insights shaped by experience, continued learning, and meaningful relationships—to help you find clarity, take purposeful steps, and make a difference where you are.
Simply Scale
You built a business. Is it giving you the freedom you hoped for?
You’ve built a team, yet too many decisions still land on your desk. Sales may be growing, but cash remains tight. And the important work of building for the future keeps getting pushed aside by the demands of today.
After almost four decades of leading teams and working with business owners, I’ve learned that growth doesn’t automatically create freedom. Sometimes, it creates a business that depends even more heavily on its owner.
I wrote Simply Scale to help business owners recognize and address challenges in the three most common areas that can keep them stuck: Money, Time, and Team. Drawing on real-world experiences, relatable stories, and practical tools, I share ways to strengthen the business, develop the team, and create systems that reduce the owner’s constant involvement.
The goal isn’t simply a bigger business. It’s a profitable, well-led business that can thrive without you at the center—giving you the freedom and options you worked so hard to create.

The Right Heart in Life
Faith, Character, and the Choices That Shape Our Lives
I hav read hundreds of self-help books, read reviews of hundreds more. The premise for many of these books is that when we follow the prescribed 3- or 5-step process, we will improve.
If we just get the right mindset, show the right amount of grit, practice small incremental habits that will compound over time… but then we don’t change, we don’t improve.
The Right Heart in Life is not a self-help book. It is a “God-help” book. What happens when we rely on God for our improvement – instead of ourselves. It explores spiritual and personal growth through three connected ideas – straight from the vocational text for Adam and Eve in Genesis 1:28: Subdue, Rule, and Multiply.
The journey begins with understanding that to achieve real, lasting personal change, we need to surrender our will to God – and then submit to His will.
My hope is that these reflections encourage thoughtful study, honest self-examination, and meaningful growth in faith and everyday life.

Your Heart is a Garden
A 6-Week Study Guide as a companion to The Right Hart in Life
Reading can introduce a new idea. Reflection helps us understand it. Application is where that idea begins to shape our lives. My goal with each study guide is to make the learning useful long after the reading is finished.
That’s why I’m developing Your Heart is a Garden, a six-week study guide featuring Scripture, reflection questions, and practical exercises. It can accompany The Right Heart in Life or serve as a standalone resource for individual or group study.
The Topics fof the 6 Weeks:
Identity – Who Do You Want to Become
Surrender – It’s About Control
Subdue – I Do Not Understand What I Do
Submit – Not My Will, But Yours
Rule – You Know What is Right, Do Right
Multiply – What Gifts Do I Have to Offer?
Planned release: First Half 2027 (with The Right Heart in Life)
