They share their experiences, their passion, and their deep faith and belief in God. Their reflections are bookended by a verse or line from scripture, a saying, or a favorite quote and a sampling of personal wisdom"--Publisher's description

"[John Simmons] represents to me the essence of a constructive conscience. His highly motivated being expresses itself in constant activity for the public good. His energies have always amazed me and I was impressed to find, after a recent meeting with him after a number of years of separation, that his zeal and dedication are no less bouncy than they always have been. Here is a man of whom it can truly be said that his is not just a religion of the knee but also a religion of the hart and the body." ---- Max Kampelman "Gentle John meek and mild, lets let the rest of us pause and acknowledge one pastor who broke the mold and made a difference. Thank God for an untamed lover of God and humanity that never wavered from his love of both. There are a whole bunch of us that have been challenged; blessed and shook up by the way you have honored your calling and made a whale of a difference. I do indeed thank you for the unwavering priorities of love and justice that has indeed kept me on my toes and alive to my own calling." ---- Stanley E. Olson
