Step Out on Nothing: How Faith and Family Helped Me Conquer Life's Challenges Book

I was looking for a book on cd to listen to while commuting to work. This was a ramdom choice simply because it was a biography. I love it! I am only on the first CD but when i pulled into the parking I check to see how many CD's there are to listen to and was sad to see that there are only 5!. Byron Pitts is well known for his spot on 60 minutes. There are many things that intrique me about this so far - there is a spiritual (christian) connection, which I didn't know until I started listening He grew up in Baltimore, raised by a single mother after a divorce, attended Archbishop Curly, had a stutter until he was 20, he was told he was functionally illiterate and maybe even retarded when he was child. Yet he managed to work himself up to a coveted postion of fame. All the while giving credit to those who deserve it for helping him in life. Can't wait to get into this more. Finsihed the book. I would like to go back and write down some of his bits of wisdom, quotes, etc into my journal. Though I thought maybe it was a bit too long after all, I still looked forward to getting in the car to listen to it. I had one disappointment at the end wher he gave the commencement speech for his college but I won't say what it was. I will save that for my book discussion group.
