The Call to Wisdom
Author: Howard Jones
Publisher: Outskirts Press
ISBN: 1977258212
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 127
Book Description
Over the years, I have worked as a consultant in the healthcare world. And during that time, I have met hundreds of physicians who were not only smart – but also wise in the decisions they make for their patients. I have also seen the wisdom of both men and women in jobs, different roles, and different responsibilities. But I have also seen friends in different businesses who lack wisdom in the decisions they make. The same is sometimes evident in song writers and poets – coaches and politicians. What I have experienced has called me to write this book.
