Don't Glean the Margins
What if the margins of your business were the soil of your legacy?
In a world obsessed with optimization and bottom-line performance, Don’t Glean the Corners of Your Field offers a countercultural call to lead with margin, mercy, and meaning. Inspired by the biblical story of Boaz and Ruth, this book equips leaders to embrace servant leadership—not just as a strategy, but as a spiritual discipline.
Through six transformative principles, you’ll learn how to:
-
Leave Margin for Mercy – Create space for generosity and grace.
-
See the Invisible – Recognize and elevate overlooked contributors.
-
Bless Beyond Obligation – Go beyond compliance to cultivate purpose.
-
Steward with Purpose – Treat your business as a field of influence, not just profit.
-
Build for Belonging – Foster cultures where people feel safe, seen, and valued.
-
Trust the Bigger Story – Lead with faith, not fear, and build a legacy that lasts.
Packed with compelling stories, practical applications, and spiritual reflections, this book challenges leaders to stop harvesting every corner—and start stewarding their fields for impact. Because in God’s economy, what you leave behind may become someone else’s hope.
Don’t just harvest your field. Steward it. Leave the corners untouched. That’s where redemption begins.

Sarah's Journey
An origin story from the "Healing Waters" series of historical Christian fiction...
The spiritual prequel to Fine-Ferguson...
​
Before she ever met Gary Fine, Sara Long was marked by something she couldn’t explain—and refused to worship. As angels and demons circle her life, she chooses neither side, documenting every anomaly with logic and refusing to kneel. Sara’s Journey is a haunting prequel that explores the cost of neutrality in a world where memory, science, and spiritual warfare collide.
