Journey with me into the life of a little girl named, Jasmine. She is one of four sisters, but my story journeys into her life from her perspective. Raised partly in the desert of Nevada, the hills of Kentucky and the mountains of Idaho. All four sisters suffer during a time when their parents divorce, their mother neglects them and their father kidnaps them. Now raised in an environment full of abuse by their stepmother, they learn to keep secrets. From Jasmine’s point of view, she starts suffering from depression and chronic anxiety. A great amount of fear controls her life, now that her father is gone. Feeling trapped and helpless to find her real mother, she wonders if her prayers are heard. As she grows up, she begins soul searching to heal from emotional damage. Trust issues prevent her from setting healthy boundaries. A long search begins to find her real mother and find answers. Through Jasmine’s eyes, we experience her sadness inflicted on her tender heart-a heart that feels unloved during a time when she is betrayed by her husband. Jasmine learns that love and forgiveness are the keys to healing and that her voice matters during a time when shattered and broken.

After seven printings of the the original version, Del's book Truly Leading: Lessons in Leadership has just been published in the second edition. Del Suggs' new book is a excellent primer for campus leaders. Newly expanded to twenty-five chapters, Suggs covers both the basics and more advanced leadership skills. The chapter titles tell it all: "Leading With Integrity," "Effective Time Management," "The Art of Delegation," "Setting Organizational Goals" and "Conflict Resolution" are all perfect examples of the basic skils that all leaders must master. New chapters include "Leading With Community Service", with plenty of ideas about service projects; "Avoiding Burnout," to help you maintain a balance in your life; "Creating a Sense of Community" with many concepts of community building; and "Improving Your Campus Elections." Plus, a complete update of the chapter "Embracing Technology" with lots of great information about Del's leadership hacks. But Truly Leading goes beyond the basics, and addresses those skills that more advanced leaders need. "How to Inspire Others," "Being a Better Leader," "The Power of Ceremony" and "More Effective Meetings" are aimed at lifting an emerging leader into greater success. Suggs also includes chapters on some very important foundational needs, such as creating a mission statement and some advanced concepts in recruitment. Organizational training needs are addressed in chapters covering both planning and training retreats, along with presenting a full-blown campus leadership conference. Truly Leading: Lessons in Leadership is chock full of leadership tips, suggestions, and guidance. It is brisk reading, written in a casual style that reflects the author's personal experiences as a life-long leaders. The foreword was written by Dennis Haskins, perhaps best known as "Mr. Belding" on the hit TV series Saved By the Bell. "The perfect book for college student leaders, " says Jonathan Sprinkles, former "National Campus Speaker of the Year."
