Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord rises upon you.

Your achievements in life can make you great, 

but what you overcame to get there makes you significant.

Almost everyone loves POPCORN. For many of us, the smell of fresh POPCORN can get our taste buds excited. 

In fact, POPCORN is so popular that more than 17 billion quarts of it are consumed by Americans every year. This equates to about 58 quarts eaten annually by each person in the US. That's a lot of POPCORN.

For me, the smell of popcorn brings back fond memories of going to watch a movie with my grandmother. I remember how I was amazed to see the kernels of corn change into a tasty treat when faced with extreme heat. In the same way, when the seeds of our potential are transformed by overcoming the heat of adversity, we metaphorically SMELL THE POPCORN™.

Thus, my definition of a seasoned (mature) Popcorn Person™ is a person who, like the kernel of corn, grows to his or her greatest potential when faced with the heat of adversity. Unlike a candy bar that melts into a gooey mess and takes the shape of its container, a Popcorn Person™ defines and shapes his or her destiny by growing from a challenge.

This faith-based 25-minute message (perfect for small groups, church services and senior centers plus keynote format for conventions) provides life-changing secrets to turn a setback into a setup to rediscover your joy, purpose and passion.
