us. I vividly recall the momentous day we had a profound
conversation in his car about changing the world. Our collaboration
has since grown, and we remain steadfast in our mission to spread
the truth to people of all nations. Truly, it is a privilege to have such
a meaningful friendship. (www.dereklin.com)

Richard: I express my gratitude to Richard, the homeless man I
met at St. Vincent De Paul of Los Angeles, in front of Mary’s
garden. His considerable time and support for this project
strengthened my faith. Our time together was enriching, and I am
humbled by the insight he shared regarding prayer and the Word of
God. Richard's ability to recite the Bible as a homeless individual
inspired me to pursue my own calling in writing the Christian
version of the Tao Te Ching. I credit much of the success of this
project to Richard's assistance in helping me believe in myself. If
God can call upon a homeless man to recite the Bible, then it
follows that I could be called upon to write the Christian version of
the Tao Te Ching. Before his departure, he reminded me that
everything he shared was the truth.

John Floyd: I express my deep gratitude towards John, who was
my business attorney throughout my toughest moments. John’s
guidance and professional expertise have been immensely
valuable to me. The services provided by his experienced team
have given me much-needed peace and assurance. John is a true
inspiration to others with his contagious love for people. I am
committed to carrying forward this spirit and impacting the lives of
those around me because of his example. Thank you, John, for
