Summer Reading Book #26 is THE MELTING POINT: HIGH COMMAND AND WAR IN THE 21ST CENTURY by Gen. Kenneth F. McKenzie, Jr., USMC (Retired) “It is always easy to be a critic—to opine freely, without knowledge of the facts and with certainly none of the responsibility.”

Summer Reading Book #27 is AMERICAN PLAYBOOK by Clay Travis “Worrying about failure isn’t healthy….if you only worry about failure, you don’t take career chances and you don’t stay committed to your core philosophies because you’re letting something else dictate your decisions.”

Summer Reading Book #28 is LOVE YOUR ENEMIES by Arthur Brooks “You can resolve problems with someone with whom you disagree, even if you disagree angrily, but you can’t come to a solution with someone who holds you in contempt or for whom you have contempt.”

Summer Reading Book 29: WHY I BELIEVE by Dr. Henry Cloud “I learned a valuable twofold lesson…God is with us even when things are really bad. Just because things are bad does not mean He is not with us…just because He is with us does not mean He removes all bad stuff right then.”
