Show Notes

The last few years have been chaos due to the pandemic and now economic instability for so many due to inflation and the cost increase of daily living. Dr. Jim Grassi, a master storyteller, addresses our need to find a place of calm in the midst of the rushing rivers of chaos that encircles our lives. Like he has done so effectively in other 17+ books, this short book provides truth with story so we can see ourselves in the story and becoming encouraged the more we read.

The book, as you can imagine, was written off of the iconic Psalm 23, The Lord is my shepherd…. Jim Mentions a classic point of encouragement: This was written by a Shepherd (David), who became a king to proclaim the King (God the Father) who became a shepherd (His son Jesus).

This is written as a gift book. It is nicely packaged and short, so you can read with your family, read for encouragement yourself and give as gifts to your loved ones and those going thru chaos. While Jim usually writes to men, this book is written from a Grandfather’s perspective, with compassion and encouragement that is fitting for any and all.

The people around you depend on family and friends to be the encouragement to them that you would like them to be for you.

It is available now and would be sent to you in time for Christmas gifts or general gifts of encouragement. It will also be available in Spanish in very early 2023 (not in time for Christmas).

About Wendell Morton

Rev. Morton graduated from Western Evangelical Seminary with a BA in Religious Education and a Master of Counseling Psychology, Rev. Morton was in full-time ministry for 17 years with both small and large churches. He spent four of those ministry years with Promise Keepers. He was the the US representative to PK Canada – serving on the PK Canada Board.

Wendell also spent 23 years in Corporate America. He built and led sales teams that worked with very small businesses and other groups that worked with Fortune 500 companies. He is gifted at helping identifying the next generation of leaders as well as helping those around him being successful.

Rev. Morton has a passion to help pastors and church leaders build growing churches. Having men come alongside the vision of the pastor, build a dynamic team, create a plan, and execute the model of “each one brings one” has been proven effective for more than 2,000 years. This approach is a great way for every local church in North America to grow while helping men better understand biblical manhood.

About Dale Eudy

As an advocate for ministry to men, Dale Eudy brings a combined background of leadership skills developed in the marketplace along with senior leadership experience in the Church.

Following military service, Dale earned his undergraduate degree and gained valuable systems and operations experience working for two prominent Fortune 50 companies. Responding to God’s leading in his life to focus on leaders in the body of Christ, he went on to complete seminary and served as a pastor for 16 years in a large church in the Denver area and as a denominational leader at the regional and national levels. With his background, Dale knows the heartbeat of the local church.

Dale’s passion is the discipleship (spiritual reproduction) of men. That passion is what drew him to partner with Men’s Ministry Catalyst. In his words, “The simple call of Jesus to follow him and to make fishers of men is the most foundational call in my life.” Using his spiritual gifts of leadership and exhortation, Dale is a great coach and cheerleader for those involved in the arenas of life.

Dale and his wife Kathy live in Highlands Ranch, Colorado and serve their home church, Cherry Hills Community Church. They have two grown children and a caring extended family.
