"In Ten Bits of Wisdom from the Shoe Shine Guy - A Transformed Life, John reveals the story of his life with compelling self-reflection, humility, and vulnerability and in so doing, is able to beautifully unveil true wisdom, Godly wisdom. I believe the reader of John's story will be challenged, as I am, to examine their life, its goals and purposes in relation to the wisdom revealed by the Shoe Shine Guy."

-Bob Howard, President and CEO of TMW Enterprises

"The journey of service for "The Shoe Shine Guy" is not simply of making black patent leather shoes reflect up, but of showing us how compassion, support, and encouragement are the true elements by which we Serve others each and every day. A shining reminder to act, not simply talk, about our faith."

-Dale Royal, Chairman and CEO of Unitask Software

"There is great wisdom in story, and you will not be disappointed with this storyteller! Here is a life that has learned the essence of what is important. He has discovered the key lighthouses to guide us on our journey and has generously made them accessible. This book is a tour de force of some of the best thinking for the past 15 years, from business whizzes to masters of spiritual life. John has combined and simmered all of this wisdom, then integrated it into his story that has found not only over-the-top business and financial success, but, more importantly, has discovered the secrets to real and lasting success as a man grounded and centered in god and his relationships with family. This is a wonderful book!"
