Getting Fired Gave Life a New Direction
Episode description
JOHN DAVID GRAHAM is the founder of Good Samaritan Home, a housing / mentoring program helping men and women restart their lives after prison. Prior to that he was a door-to-door salesman, a children’s home counselor, substitute school teacher, truck driver, fireman, building contractor, minister and journalist.
Sometimes the road home takes many twists and turns to develop what he calls the “calloused hands and tender heart” needed to help people through a crisis.
His recent novel, RUNNING AS FAST AS I CAN tells the “second chance journey” of Daniel Robinson and has garnered 26 awards for literary and inspirational fiction.
He gives all the credit for the success of Good Samaritan Home, and the completion of his novel, to Kathy, his wife of forty-seven years. “She has given me the strength to go on whenever the going seemed impossible. She has been, and always will be, my best friend.”
