Tough times are inevitable. Something is going to happen to you that you didn’t want to happen – you didn’t expect to happen. What are you going to do about it?
A couple of weeks ago, I visited the George W. Bush Presidential Library on the campus of Southern Methodist University in Dallas, Texas. And in my first visit to a presidential library, I was reminded of the difficult moments, days, weeks, and months following the September 11, 2001 attacks on our country.

In this post I’ll tell you how you can get a chapter of Jon Acuff’s new book, Start, absolutely FREE!
Let’s face it – life happens. We all get derailed at one time or another. And it’s always more difficult to get back on track the second time. Third time. Fourth time.
