The first printing of this book, was assembled under the pressure of time, and was therefore written without the benefit of proofreading or editing. Alvin W. Byars was seriously ill when he was working on this book with Myasthenia Gravis, Lymphoma and he ultimately died in 1993 due to a brain tumor (Craniopharyngloma), and various complications and surgeries due to all these diseases. There have been request for a digital reprint of the book. I will do the best I can to do the reprint justice. Merlene Hutto Byars

How I wish as the candidates I worked for screamed, screwed, or gaffed their way into crisis, I had called on Jason Vines. This is more than a corporate PR book - it's a masters' class, no holds barred, white knuckle ride of insights and wisdom for anyone whose job it is to communicate for a living.” – ?????? “Jason Vines in raw and real story telling of his own journey explains to every politician, celebrity, corporate communications professional and government agency that has ever faced trouble (yes I am talking about you NFL - read this one Goodell!) why we have such a hard time telling the truth, why that's the whole frickin' problem and what we can do about it." – Joe Trippi, Democratic Campaign and Media Consultant. "Jason Vines lived The Hurt Locker, defusing one public relations I.E.D. after another. To think some of the largest corporations we can name have been this close to pure PR disaster, and yet were saved by the insight Jason earned from decades of corporate cage fights, is truly amazing." – Dutch Mandel, AutoWeek Publisher "I always knew I could count on Jason for an unbiased and honest opinion." – Dr. Ricardo Martinez, MD, FACEP and former NHTSA Administrator

Have you ever tried to navigate through life without God? When you go to an unfamiliar place, the navigation system gives you step-by-step instructions on how to get there; even after getting lost several times, the sweet navigating voice, will always recalculate your position, and with the same soft tone tell you where to go. This book shows you that God does the same for all His children. After reading this book, you will be able to give thanks to God despite all your circumstances. We should be thankful to God for those "normal," smooth-sailing times. However, most of our growth and learning comes during times of pressure as this book will vividly show. Never underestimate the power of prayer, because all things are possible through God. Isolate yourself from the world for a minute. Focus on communicating with Him. Open up your heart and mind to the Lord. Whatever you desire in life, God will guide your thoughts and show you the way.
