In his latest book, Just A Minute (Moody Publishers, Jan. 1, 2012), Wess Stafford, president and CEO of Compassion International, tells countless stories of lives that were indelibly marked by words or actions that either built them up or tore them down. Through the stories of Oprah Winfrey, Tony Dungy, Adolph Hitler and others, Stafford shows how an encouraging word, well-timed hug or hurtful comment can radically transform a childhood, or even the course of an entire life.
