But taking risks is perhaps the most powerful way to grow as a person. This highly personal memoir explores risk, work and faith through engaging storytelling drawing upon a deep well, the author's own 30 years in the business trenches. Reaching back to his roots, the story begins with reflections on growing up the son of a lay minister and working in the family landscaping business -- both of which considerably shaped the author's subsequent life choices, including him become a serial entrepreneur.Through a series of progressively risky moves, the author take the reader on a journey of wrestling with some of life's most profound questions: \"How does one discover God's calling and then implement it?\"\"How is faith expressed through taking measured risks?\"\"What happens when we fail?\"With self-deprecating humor and unflinching transparency, the author shares over three dozen personal tales that illustrate soul-provoking reflections on overcoming failure, building meaningful personal and professional relationships, passionately pursuing purpose, and aligning one's life story with God's far bigger story.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Alyssa Kolb, Tim Hoerr\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0692282459\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780692282458\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Serra Creative\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/30\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 236\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.71lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 5.98w x 0.50d","brand":"Alyssa Kolb","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47199879823615,"sku":"9780692282458","price":9.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_80651f9f-e6d6-421e-89a2-598bbed53fd6.jpg?v=1756785458","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/risking-it-alyssa-kolb-9780692282458","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
