For a Christmas present to his friends and family, Ken Blanchard wrote a letter about the most important thing in his life: his journey to God.
That letter inspired this book, where Ken writes about this new life. This book uses the same warm conversational style that helped turn The One Minute Manager, co-authored with Spencer Johnson, into an international bestseller. He puts aside religious jargon, and shows how to take a practical, everyday approach to spirituality.
It Takes Less Than One Minute to Suit Up for the Lord is more than the account of a journey to faith. Ken will tell you the journey's not complete. Sustained growth requires discipline. So Ken shares what has worked for him, how faith sinks in and affects daily life, and how it impacts business and family. Ken also shows how anyone can get started, integrate faith into their lives, and “suit up.”
For Ken Blanchard, his journey began with an acceptance of the simple truth that God loved him. It was a rediscovery of a faith, once from childlike innocence, now even stronger. Ken's journey is for all who wonder how the best in life can be made even better.
"This book is not about persuading you to believe in God. I think most people believe in God.... My hope is to clear up your amnesia and help you remember what you once knew in childlike innocence: that there is something or someone out there bigger than you who has a divine purpose for your life."
