Autorenporträt
Dr. John Utley is a seasoned pastor, motivational speaker, and now, an unexpected possum-eating expert. With over three decades of ministry experience, John has encountered his fair share of life's toughest challenges - from counseling struggling couples to navigating the treacherous waters of church transitions. But it wasn't until he faced down a plate of barbecued possum that he truly understood the power of conquering life's most daunting obstacles. A native of Arkansas, John grew up surrounded by Southern charm, colorful characters, and yes, the occasional possum. His journey from small-town preacher to internationally recognized speaker has been marked by a unique blend of homespun wisdom, biblical insight, and an uncanny ability to find profound life lessons in the most unlikely places - like a wild game barbecue. When he's not encouraging others to "grab life by the tail," John can be found enjoying time with his wife, Susan, and their children and grandchildren. He's an avid storyteller, a passionate advocate for personal growth, and firmly believes that with the right attitude (and maybe a little barbecue sauce), any challenge can be overcome. "EAT THE POSSUM" is not John's first book,but certainly not his last word on tackling life's toughest challenges. So grab a fork, tuck in your napkin, and get ready to feast on success with Dr. John Utley as your guide!
