Ken Blanchard, author of the “One Minute Manager” first heard One Solitary Life at the end of the Christmas pageant at the Crystal Cathedral in Orange, California. He says this:

“The first time I heard One Solitary Life, it hit me like a ton of bricks. It put in perspective that all of the pushing in life for wealth, power and status doesn’t really mean anything. What really matters is what you do for others.”

Through some digging he found that the story came from a powerful essay from a 1926 sermon by James A. Francis depicting the life, journey and message of Jesus. No other man, army or movement has affected the people on this earth as much as his “One Solitary Life.”

Years later Ken met with Mac Anderson, founder of Simple Truths, and the project went into motion and we are proud to offer you this classic story beautifully laid out in a gift book you will be proud to give as well as a movie that will help you put your life into perspective and feel renewed and blessed.

Ken Blanchard writes a powerful foreword and offers meaningful reflections about how Jesus made a difference with his life… and what we can do with ours

About the Author

James A. Francis originally shared the story of One Solitary Life at the First Baptist Church of Los Angeles in a sermon, Arise, Sir Knight. It was delivered on July 11, 1926 to the National Baptist Young Peoples Union. Later, Dr. Francis included it as the last sermon in his book, The Real Jesus And Other Sermons published by Judson Press in 1926. Rev. Francis died at age 64 on June 30, 1928.

About The Author

PAULA FOX describes herself as a lifetime student whose passion is to continue learning and applying Godly wisdom in her life so that she can share it with others. Her desire is to inspire and motivate others to live a life of purpose and significance. She is a teacher at heart with a degree in special education and 35 years experience teaching and leading all ages from preschool through adult.

The Touch of the Master’s Hand reinforces Myra Brooks Welch’s powerful and inspiring poem that helps us better understand and realize that God places far more value on restoring our soul and renewing our faith than putting a price on the external value of a person’s life. This book also reveals an inspiring message that reminds us of our uniqueness and significance with God. Author Bob Kelly, a very accomplished writer and author of several books, does a masterful job of researching and reinforcing the importance of the story and poem and just how applicable it is to our lives today.

“The Touch of the Master’s Hand is an incredible and compelling book. It’s sure to penetrate your very heart and soul while lifting your spirit in the process. I can’t think of a better and more beautiful gift to encourage and inspire, both young and old, as they face the ongoing challenges of life.”
