The Lighthouse Effect by Steve Pemberton

‘When a lighthouse sees you in the midst of your storm, it points you towards safety and protection.’ You will reflect on the lighthouses in your own life and be reminded that the greatest heroes are alongside us-and within us. With a unique vision for building up individuals and communities and restoring trust, The Lighthouse Effect opens your eyes to those who are quietly heroic. The humble gestures of kindness that change the course of our lives can shift the course for America too. Through stories of people like John and several others, you will identify how the hardships you have overcome equip you to be a 'human lighthouse,' inspiring those around you. John gave Steve a safe harbor after Steve escaped an abusive foster home and together they navigated a new path that led to personal and professional success. Steve Pemberton found a lighthouse in an ordinary man named John Sykes, his former high school counselor. We are adrift in a dark sea of disillusionment and distrust and we need 'human lighthouses' to give us hope and direct us back to the goodness in each other and in our own hearts. Our polarized, divisive culture seems to be without heroes and role models. In this stirring follow-up to his memoir, Steve Pemberton gives practical encouragement for how you can be a 'human lighthouse' for others and through these inspiring stories will renew your hope for humanity.
