Alton Loveless knows books and he knows how to write. With his rich history as a seminar speaker and later as the President of Randall House Publications, his life has been immersed with the printed page. In reflection, I sat at his feet many times and listened to him describe books that he had read. Often as John C. Maxwell and I would sit and talk with Alton, he would hold up a book by R.G. Lee or Warren Wiersbe and with a twinkle in his eye and passion in his voice, he would declare, "this is the best book I have ever read and you boys need to read it." I still treasure those books on my library shelf and thank God for the guidance and influence that Dr. Loveless had on my life and especially on John whose books have now sold over 20 million copies. These Memoirs by Alton Loveless will bless, encourage and inspire every reader to passionately pursue Christ and to read everything that has been written about our Lord and Savior. The life of Dr. Loveless has impacted many. This book is going to touch many lives and inspire someone just like me to understand that leaders are readers. Here's a book from a man of integrity whose walk matches his talk. He lives what he writes. -Dr. Stan Toler, Best-selling author
