Books & Writing

Words That Open Doors.

Jeff writes the way he speaks — with honesty, warmth, and the kind of practical wisdom that sticks. His books are tools, not trophies: meant to be dog-eared, shared with your team, and argued about over coffee.

Book One

Joy Café

Rediscovering Community, Connection, and Belonging

What if the antidote to loneliness isn't a new program, a better strategy, or a team-building exercise — but simply learning to see the people already around you?

Joy Café is the story of what community looks like when it's done right. Drawing on decades of experience in leadership, ministry, and coaching, Jeff paints a picture of belonging that feels both aspirational and entirely within reach. It's not a theory — it's a portrait of what happens when people decide to actually show up for each other.

Whether you lead a team of two or two thousand, this book will challenge you to stop tolerating disconnection and start building the kind of culture where people genuinely thrive.

Book Two

The Power of 168

Making Every Hour of Your Week Count

There are 168 hours in every week. No exceptions. You get the same number as everyone else — the CEO of a Fortune 500 company, the Olympic athlete, the struggling entrepreneur. What you do with them is entirely up to you.

The Power of 168 is a challenge and a framework. Jeff walks readers through a clear-eyed examination of how they actually spend their time versus how they say they want to spend it — and what to do about the gap. With characteristic warmth and zero guilt-tripping, he offers a practical path to a life that matches your values.

This is the book for the leader who feels perpetually behind, the professional drowning in busyness, and anyone who suspects there's a better way but hasn't found the map yet.
