When I take a plane trip, I request a window seat because I actually look out the window. Many are in a hurry to make their arrival; the goal is the destination. I, however, savor the journey. It is why I choose the window; I love watching the difference in the topography, the shape of towns, the colors of fields. The authors in this book have chosen to take us on an incredible journey on what it takes to transform our world, our sphere of influence; to extend our sphere of influence. Yes, their individual goal is set, but the way to get there is both beautiful and awe-inspiring. This book encourages us to set the goal, but to enjoy the journey along the amazing way. This is a keeper. ~Cheri Wells, Bible Teacher
