The Spirit of Excellence: Unleashing The Genius in You! (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781098014360)

The Spirit of Excellence combines the burning heart of a Christian with the burdened heart of a pastor, who desires to see more people rising above the challenges of life to achieve high standards of excellence in all facets of life.

Following lines of least resistance may be okay for natural water flows, but achieving excellence is sometimes like swimming upstream against the current. It requires decision, determination, courage, and faith to persevere against the odds and overcome the lure to settle down for the second best. It unleashes the genius in you to become the very person that God had in mind when He created you.

When people are influenced to live out the qualities of integrity, transparent honesty, holiness, etc., and they in turn influence others--friends, relations, and contacts to do the same, then the world is transformed and become a better place for us all.

You have probably heard the slogan "Every little helps," and you may wonder if this could ever apply to your contribution to this vast world. The truth is that you are important to God, and your unique contribution can set off chain reactions that influences many. So when it feels like a little drop of water in an ocean, remember that the ocean is made up of drops.

This book contains spiritual gems, witty nuggets, and powerful illustrations that will inspire faith and confidence to aim high in living for God now and everywhere. You will be challenged and motivated to take hold of God and pursue a life of practical excellence irrespective of your past or present circumstances. By so doing, you will truly become the salt of the earth and light of the world (Matt. 5:13-16), i.e., shiny examples that preserves goodness and guides aright.
