At work, we serve. We serve the users of products and services that we and our companies produce and sell. But what about the people working alongside us? What about the people we spend so much time with—our bosses, our teams, our peers, our rivals, our friends? What...

No one has ever filled out a verifiably perfect NCAA Men’s Basketball bracket in the history of the modern NCAA tournament. Two, no one likely ever will, because the odds are infinitesimally small.

Recently, a friend gave me the book The Way of the Shepherd (Leman and Pentak). The subtitle is Seven Secrets to Managing Productive People. The title caused instant intrigue, but as I read it, I was enthralled by the simple truths that can produce profound results. I...

When we think of Daniel in the Bible, the story of the lions’ den usually comes to mind. It certainly was a heroic moment in the life of this great man.

And when we think of Daniel’s friends, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, our minds go to the story of the fiery furnace.

Who are those people in the picture above? That’s a picture of the 1978 Ledford Senior High School graduating Class. We just had our 45th class reunion. Some things have changed, but some things are still the same. One of the unchanging things is the friendships...
