I find it's one thing to reach out to those we know, are comfortable with, or who are in our same station in life, but... Several years ago we heard an old friend of ours had a church on 2nd and Burnside. We went to look him up. We were out of our element, but when we reached out to get to know the people there we were blown away by the love that made us family despite our many differences. We stayed there working with him/them about 4 years until we moved to Newberg. When we stepped outside our comfort zone to get to know those whom we knew nothing about (alcoholics, addicts, homeless, broken, lonely, hungry and even dying) we were changed greatly by those we thought we were there to help!! People are people no matter what their circumstances - we love our street family. If you ever get down that way - introduce yourself to Pastor Charles Moore and tell him Sondi sent you. You'll love him. He was a heroin addict for YEARS until he was Liberated and now he's there for others at LIBERATION STREET CHURCH. I will be sure and read the Fred Factor.

One of the key concepts you mention in your review is the important of differentiation. The key is to outthink rather than outspend the competition. By the way, like you, I balance fiction with non-fiction reading. Thanks for the nice review of my book, The Fred Factor!
