What To Expect...
"My typical engagement transpires either in person, during an off-site retreat, over the telephone, or via video conference. Each option has distinct advantages and a few disadvantages. Ultimately, I will do whatever it takes to ensure our work succeeds." - Preston

"I do not take partnerships lightly. In fact, I won't accept a partnership with a ministry leader unless we share the same identity - that of being in Christ and drinking from the same cup of the indwelling mind of Jesus.  Preston is one of those fellow believers I not only call friend, but a co-worker of the Grace of God!  I highly recommend the Lord's work through him to you."  
"Pres, I really, really appreciate your writing. You write out the struggles and fights I have with God. All the same questions, all the same thoughts. You give me amazing, amazing hope. Over the past few months your writings have been a light, a guide and an anchor to me. Thank you."   -Joy

BATTLE FOR THE ROUND TOWER
"I found myself reading "Battle for the Round Tower" just as I did my initial reading of "The Chronicles of Narnia," which I first did as an adult. While there was clearly spiritual symbolism, the first time through I read almost entirely for the pleasure of the story. Then, I did a second, slower reading, intentionally hunting for and relishing each truth discovered on the journey. As a woman, I especially appreciated the juxtaposition of the rugged masculinity with the sensitive vulnerability of Hank."   -Tricia

A Question

IOM: Battle For The Round Tower, Gillham

"Let me ask you a question," said Bill, my agnostic friend. He and I had converged on Tawny's house, my atheist neighbor, for a Scotch. As the door opened, Bill said, "Let's assume-and this is a big assumption," he said with a nod to Tawny, "that there is a God."

 

"Well that's just stupid," interrupted Tawny.

 

"Let me finish," Bill persisted. "Preston, let's assume there is a God. Do you believe that He created everything, then backed away, and just took His hands off of His creation, or do you think God controls everything?"

 

While Tawny poured the drinks, I said, "I don't believe either, Bill."

 

"Well, just assume one or the other."

 

"It is not one or the other, but if it were, I'd... Read Full Article...  
 
LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT
Developing Genuine Leaders
pres, preston, iom, gillham True leaders are formed, not born. Leadership is demonstrated and grown and nurtured. In other words, leaders are developed.

They don't call it "human capital" for nothing. You are worth the investment and development and thoughtful care necessary to build your human capital.

 

None of us are designed to be islands. Even though we fancy ourselves independent, "one" is a lonely number. And, the greater the demand and expectation is on a leader, the more lonely life can be, which dramatically increases the risk of a mistake. I can help manage the risks to your reputation while developing your effectiveness as a leader and person.

 

We all need assistance segmenting our giftedness and responsibilities into meaningful and manageable skills. We all need someone who helps guard our backside and looks out for our blind spots. We all need someone to protect our potential while guiding our human development. This is especially true for those in leadership roles.   Learn More
