My first Book, "The Wise Men and Women Have Sent Me to Tell You"
|
Posted By: Brother Marcus! on October 23, 2008 Dear reader: I would love if you would consider purchasing a copy of my first book, The Wise Men and Women Have Sent Me to Tell You", for yourself, your sons or daughters, nieces or nephews or a young man in your community who is trying to find himself. I wrote this book for all young people generally and for our young men specifically. I know I dont have to tell you the challenges of raising decent young men in today's times. This book was written after working with our young people across America for the last 15 years of my life. I have a pretty good idea of the mindset, the heart and the spirit of our youth. This book complements everything you have been saying to your teenagers and puts your ultimate message to them into language that a young person growing up in today's times can understand. Description of the book: “This is the first book by Motivational Speaker and Trainer, Marcus Girard. This is a book of guidance and instruction. Mr. Girard candidly shares his experiences of growing up on the mean streets of Brooklyn, New York and offers readers four life principles that aided him in keeping his own life on track. This book helps young men to take a hard look at the kind of men they are becoming spiritually, physically, mentally, emotionally, financially, socially and sexually. Mr. Girard hammers away at the pseudo image of manhood that negative rap music and hip hop culture offers young men in today’s times. Other topics covered in this book include functional illiteracy and the immeasurable value of reading, developing a work ethic, and transitioning out of their parent’s home. Young men get a chance to look ten years into the future and consider where the positive and negative consequences of their actions have brought them. This book is recommended reading for all young men aged, 14 through 30. Many grown men who have read this book shared that they wished that they would have read this book when they were young men. They shared that it would have helped them stay out of so much trouble!” To purchase my book please go to my website at www.marcusgirard.com. I work with Pay Pal and they have been deemed to be highly efficient and safe for all online transactions. I will send your book out to you immediately. You may also go to www.amazon.com to purchase your copy of the book. I look forward to hearing from you soon. If you need to get in contact with me for any reason, please call my offices at 404-542-3808. Thank you again and God bless!

Thank you both for writing back to me. I am asking anyone that has access to any media outlets, to pass the information on to me that I may promote my book. I will come on to radio stations, television and Internet. I will also submit to newspapers and all newsletters for interviews as well. Thank you all so very much and God bless you!

the sound of this book seems like it will be great. i'm working now with the idea of going into high schools and talk to seniors about other opportunities of creating income. i was only taught to go work for one company for 30 years and hopefully retire with enough money. but i've since learned that there are bigger opportunities out there with home-based business. so i would love to spread these opportunities with our youth. the business site that i work with has a link to barnes & noble. if your book is there then i'll definitely order it and give you some feed back. thanks again, this is much needed.

I am here to tell you all that this book should be given to every young person in our community to have the opportunity to come into an understanding of life itself. From my words, I've indicated that I have read it and have found that it was not only enlightening for me, but masterfully created to assist our youth in developing a "New Direction", which has been long overdue. The Brother shines truth on the necessary paths that we all must all take if we are to survive as a race of people and move forward into the future. I thank you Brother Marcus for producing this fine work, and may God continue blessing you. Peace. Doc P.S. This would make a wonderful gift for any special young person to receive !
