About Being a Sharefish in a Selfish World
"I can take you almost the whole way to where you're looking to go," he said with a grin. When Nyles hitched a ride from Oregon to North Carolina with Izzy, he had no idea that Izzy's words meant much more than geography. As the two travel from coast to coast, Nyles sheds his burdens of self-doubt and realizes his true potential as he listens to Izzy's stories of pain and triumph. Ride alongside Izzy and Nyles and learn about life, about purpose and about the secret power of being a Sharefish. It will be the ride of a lifetime.

You will want your entire family to read Being a Sharefish in a Selfish World as a talking point about perspective, faith, and significance. You will want your friends of strong faith to read this book to discuss its theological perspectives. You will want your friends on the edge of faith to read this book to perhaps answer some of their fears. You will want to read this book yourself more than once after you read the ending!
