Standing on the Shoulders

A Legacy Story of a Father, a Son, and Life's Greatest Gifts

Beschreibung

There is a proverb that states: "We see further because we are standing on the shoulders of giants." Each of us has a question to answer: Will we choose to live a life for others to stand on our shoulders or leave behind the rubble of brokenness for others to clean up? For Tim Brand, this came to a head when his father, Denny, was living his last months of life. Guiding us through this inspiring true story of love, hope, and redemption, Tim shares his father's journey. Life's greatest gifts are revealed, exploring the deeper questions of what it means to live a good life and how to leave a legacy for future generations. Written with vulnerability and compassion, Standing on the Shoulders is a beautiful chronicle of their time together. It is a book that will stay with you long after you finish reading it, inspiring you to live your own life to the fullest and to make a difference in the world. At the author's request, all royalties due to the author will benefit Many Hands' work with mothers and children in need, who need someone's shoulders to stand on for a season.

Autor

Tim Brand is the Founder and CEO of Many Hands, established in 2008, and also a speaker and writer. As CEO, he provides vision and leadership for U.S. and International operations. Many Hands impacts 25,000 people in three countries and reaches over 200,000 people per year in U.S. "Business as Mission" retail stores. After graduating from high school in 1998, Tim joined a church group mission trip to help build a new school in Pignon, Haiti. This trip changed his perspective on God's global heart. Two years later in college, he was praying for direction for his life and he heard a voice say to go back to Haiti. The next morning, he received an email from a mission team about an upcoming trip. He agreed, and at the end of that trip, made a covenant with God to be involved in Haiti in some way for the rest of his life. During his time in the for-profit sector, he established an association of Iowa churches working in Haiti, striving to share best practices and financial accountability. It became clear this association needed to become an official non-profit, turning into Many Hands. Tim served as President of the Board from 2008-2011. Prior to founding Many Hands and going full-time in 2011, he spent 10 years in the for-profit business sector, with experience in global strategies, global account management, IT sales and management, and financial planning. Tim is an Iowa native and graduated from Central College with a Computer Information Systems degree and the University of Phoenix with a Masters in Business Management. Selected by CITYVIEW Business Journal as one of 20 business leaders making a difference in 2020, he dedicates his life to helping people release their God-given talent to be love in action. He writes a bi-monthly 3...2...1 Impact newsletter, has led hundreds of people on Impact Trips, and steps in as teaching pastor at multiple churches across the Midwest. Tim lives in Pella, Iowa, with his wife, Catie, and their two children.
