This project began in the spring of 2005 when students in one elementary classroom in Colorado were asked to participate in a unique book drive for the children along the gulf coast. Each Colorado student was given a new Growing Field children’s picture book and, inside of it, invited to write a letter to a student along the gulf coast affected by Hurricane Katrina. The result, which includes schools, classrooms and students from California to Virginia, has been magical. In searching their heart and mind for meaningful words to write…the children found their own voice of value and a way to make their own special contribution. Through their words of hope, inspiration and friendship they have reached out to inspire their friends throughout Mississippi to believe that life is still without limit. The letters written by our next greatest generation are profiled in this new book and will soon be available for you to purchase. This elegant coffee table book illustrates the difference each of us makes when reaching out to others in need. The letters written by elementary students serve as a powerful reminder that the world can be changed when we ask not about gender, race, religion or socio-economic status but instead share with others six magical words that will truly change the world…”I hope we can be friends.” 100% of the proceeds from the sale of this book will be placed in an endowment that will create a lifetime of scholarships and opportunity for children throughout Mississippi and the Gulf Coast.
Timeless wisdom drawn from 3,000 years of accumulated experience offers hope, insight and inspiration to listeners of all ages.

I invite you to join me for the next 30 days on a journey filled with hope. As you read this book, my desire is that you will develop a closer walk with Jesus Christ and a greater understanding of His love for you. I believe that the more in step we are with our Savior, the more our days will be filled with hope and our actions will be inspired by grace. These devotionals cover topics such as peace, strength, direction, courage, passion, provision, and acceptance. I use stories and illustrations to paint a clear picture of how God’s amazing grace can be applied to different areas of life. No matter what you are going through, there is a hope for your tomorrow that can only be found in the truth of God’s Word and in a relationship with Him. Raise your hopes with me as we walk through the next 30 days together. FROM THE BACK COVER: Walk with Hope. Walk with Inspiration. Walk with Jesus. The Word of God promises us that we can have hope even in the hardest of times. We get to claim this promise by abiding in Christ. However, how often do we look for hope in our circumstances instead of in Jesus? My prayer is that as you read this book, you will get to know Him on a more personal level and allow His love and His Spirit to renew your strength. I believe that with Jesus, there is always hope.
