The Challenge: How 144 Letters Changed My Life, The Life Of My Son, And Will Change Your Life Too

The Challenge: How 144 Letters Changed My Life, The Life Of My Son, And Will Change Your Life Too takes you on a profound and purposeful journey of self-discovery; uncovering how letters changed the lives of a father and a son. It shouldn't come as a surprise that letters have the ability to change not only a father and a son, but the world.

Consider that a letter written by Martin Luther King, Jr., while sitting in a Birmingham jail, and delivered to a local newspaper, changed the direction of America forever.

Think about how a letter written by Mahatma Gandhi led to the emergence of a people and the effect it would have, even today, on an entire world.

The power a love letter from Major Sullivan Ballou, of the U.S. Union Army, to his wife, Sarah, on July 14th, 1861, changed the hearts of a nation.

And least we forget the 21 letters in the New Testament, most of which attributed to Apostle Paul, have been recited tens of billions of times by peoples of the earth since before 67AD.

If these letters fail to move you to consider engaging in your own letters to your son, f=daughter, wife or loved one...I hope those that I am about to share my story with will. The letters changed my life. The letters changed the life of my son...and the letters will change your life too.
