Excerpt
“For more than thirty years, I have had the extraordinary privilege
to spend most of my days working with young people in a variety of
roles such as teacher, counselor, coach, campus minister and mentor.
All of these experiences have convinced me that young people are the
single greatest hope and gift we have in this world.
Unfortunately, many times in this world young people are not always
valued for the people they already are nor for the potential impact
they will make with the gift of their lives. Too often, members of
society and many leaders in our world and church consider young
people to simply be over idealistic and lacking real life
experiences. I frequently wish these same leaders or critics of
young people could see the world through the eyes of the very young
people they rarely highlight as an important voice in our
world.
In the chapters that follow, I will share many inspiring stories of
amazing young people I have personally known who have significantly
improved countless lives and who, at a young age, have already made
a great difference in this world. Each one of these young people are
witnesses to the fact that the best of humanity can be found in the
hearts, lives and example of our greatest treasure, namely young
people.”
