by Jerry M. Herrin (Author)
What if the most bitter seasons of your life are actually the source of your greatest strength?
Jerry M. Herrin Jr. spent thirty years climbing the ladder of the high-stakes automotive industry. As a Vice President, General Manager, and two-time Toyota President's Award winner, he was a "fixer"-the leader called in when the numbers were down and the pressure was up. He believed success was a simple equation: Effort + Talent = Victory.
Then life served him a bowl of "Turnip Greens" he didn't order.
On February 9, 2019, a Stage 4 cancer diagnosis stripped away Jerry's titles, his ego, and his illusions of control. Moved from the glass office to the infusion chair, he was forced to face a prognosis with single-digit survival odds. But in that furnace of suffering, the "Old Jerry" was broken down so that a man of iron and grace could be built in his place.
Turnip Greens & Grace is a raw, authentic roadmap for the high-performer. It is a story of grit found on the dealership floor and grace found in a hospital chapel. Through the lens of his journey from terminal diagnosis to his seventh year of survival, Jerry shares:
The Kingmaker Strategy: Why servant leadership is the only model that truly scales and leaves a lasting legacy.
The "Even If" Theology: How to find God's signature in the messiest chapters of life and trade a "transactional" faith for a transformational one.
The Nutrition in the Dirt: Why the "bitter" trials of life provide the "iron" we need to survive the battles we never saw coming.
Whether you are leading a multi-million dollar operation, fighting for your health, or walking through a valley you never expected, this book is your guide to trading the grind for Grace.
God is authoring a story of redemption in your life. It's time to pick up your fork, swallow the bitter, and discover that Grace sure tastes sweet.
