Ken Siemens ,

Mr.

Joshua Medcalf weaves his engaging story-telling skills throughout Chop Wood Carry Water's parable about John's journey to become a samurai archer under the tutelage of the wise sensei Akira. The advice John receives from Akira reveal many of Joshua Medcalf's life-giving and heart-changing lessons to improve the trajectory of your life.

I have been blessed to hear Joshua Medcalf speak to groups of athletes six times and each time I have witnessed the transformational impact he has had on hundreds and hundreds of student-athletes. Medcalf weaves many of those same life-changing stories into Chop Wood Carry Water. This book speaks to today's youth about the importance and necessity of hard work, attention to detail, developing a growth mindset, overcoming obstacles, patience and attitude. Throughout these valuable lessons Medcalf stresses the important role his Christian faith has played in his journey.

I gave Chop Wood Carry Water to my 18 year old son for Christmas. Not only did he read it in one setting, but I now hear him quote lessons from the book when talking about challenges he faces. I highly recommend Chop Wood Carry Water as a valuable resource that will speak to your heart and improve the trajectory of your life and positively impact the lives of others.
