When Executives Keep The Promise – The Legend of Troy Nix AMBA
This week I witnessed something I’ve never seen done on stage at any event in my nearly 25 years of attending conferences worldwide. In Grand Rapids, MI, the Executive Director of AMBA, arrived on stage in a suit and tie, delivering a stirring motivational speech as good as any of my hall of fame […]
Do The Right Thing
The young player committed his 5th foul, with applause from the opposing team, as the kid who kept hitting everyone would finally be fouled out of the game. Looking over at the opposite bench, it was obvious there would be a discrepancy as the final few minutes of the game was played. The other […]

To See The Game – The Promise Broadcast
My phone rang and I picked up, despite the number not being in my phone. “Hello?” I said “Jason Hewlett, this is the new high school basketball Coach at your son’s school, do you have a minute?” “Yes sir, is everything ok?” I asked. “All is well. I heard you’re the only person who […]

72 Hours of Greatness: The Legend of Redford Hewlett
For the past month we have hardly seen our 16-year old son, Redford. He is a straight-A student, leads our church congregation in music every Sunday, and seems to be asked to a girl’s choice dance at a different school every other evening. And yet he has gone missing for almost the entirety of […]
Anonymous Gift Giving
Yesterday the doorbell rang. Delivery! Candidly, this is not a new thing at our house. In fact, I have joked, with a tear in my eye, that Amazon drivers should have a room in our home since they’re over here so much delivering who knows what. But this was different! It was not Amazon, it […]
The Carbon Promise
Imagine showing up at a high school to speak to the faculty and realize THEY’RE ALREADY TEACHING THE PROMISE!!! This happened to me recently, when I drove to Central Utah, to a city named Price, and visited Carbon High School. Principal Jarad Hardy had reached out to say he had seen my video about […]
The Ocean View & The Sand Dollar
Recently we spent a week in beautiful Southern California, a place called Oceanside, which is becoming a tradition for our family. What a great place! I’m embarrassed to admit it, but I’m not a huge fan of the beach thing…sand everywhere, sunburns even when I put on sunscreen and hide in the shade, there’s […]
The Ice Bath Promise
