Some say that character is the way we behave when no one is looking. We can't be with our kids 24/7 and we hope and pray that the investment we’ve made in them pays off when it counts most. Success in life does not always rely on academics. Character not only impacts academics but impacts how we get along throughout our lives. Lack of character can easily destroy what we’ve so carefully built.
In this episode we spoke with speaker, author, and leadership consultant Scotty Sanders. His character development books and curriculum, "Quest of the Keys" and "Guardians of Light" are being read by thousands of students in over 30 states.
