SMILE !

Perhaps no guitarist has had such a profound impact on me as Christopher Parkening. I heard his rendition of “Jesu, Joy of man’s desire”, and was inspired to take up classical guitar studies at the Guitar Shop in Washington D.C.

I actually saw him perform at Towson College, and was privileged to shake his hand.

In addition to being one of the worlds foremost virtuoso guitarists, he is a man of profound and abiding faith, and an inspiration to me, much later, when I was searching for a faith that works.

By the way, he’s also a world class fly fisherman… a very interesting man.

Another of the truly great thought leaders in business and life today. This brief video gets right to the heart of the matter, in John’s own calm and matter-or-fact manner.
