This book has afforded me the opportunity to defend some truths, expose some lies, and repair some perspectives. It has allowed me the opportunity to reveal something beautiful, share something unique, and offer something indispensable. This literary epiphany is a humble offering from me to you. It is my modest attempt to offer an olive branch, not only from me to you, but to you from them. We would love for you to join us in this Great Commission.

Together, we can raise some expectations, bring forward some solutions, and deliver something wonderful and long-lasting. Every morning offers a fresh start and a new opportunity to induce love and incite laughter. Every second provides us with a unique opportunity to make this life more livable, lively, and lovely. We just have to stay focused. We just have to stay vigilant in our efforts to live respectfully, love unconditionally, and cause others to laugh uncontrollably. And occasionally, we need to save our brothers and sisters from their own stupidity. I often excel in stupidity. Please help!

To be successful in any revolution, crusade, championship, mission, commission, or endeavor, there needs to be a cohesive team effort focusing on an agreed upon goal. To succeed in any worthwhile quest, there needs to be an understanding of what is right and what is wrong. To prevail in the challenges that I've carefully outlined in this book, we need to have the wherewithal to differentiate between friend and foe.

Proverbs 4:18-19

The path of the righteous is like the morning sun, shining ever brighter till the full light of day. But the way of the wicked is like deep darkness; they do not know what makes them stumble.
