It was the year his salary was cut after achieving some heroic success for his firm. It was the year his 9-year-old son talked about killing himself. And it was the year that he decided to divorce his wife. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt was in 1984 that Jim discovered he believed in nothing. He held nothing sacred. He trusted no one. And no one he knew was worth trusting. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThat was, until he met Arthur. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn this spiritual memoir, Jim recounts his daily commutes with Arthur. Commutes during which Arthur never preached to Jim or handed him a tract, but the two men just walked. And God worked. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWritten in frank and inviting style, \u003ci\u003eWalking with Arthur\u003c\/i\u003e will make you feel as if you are taking this journey alongside Jim. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eA Short Excerpt from the Prologue: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn meeting Arthur, in 1984, I awoke as if from a long sleep. From a lifetime of self-absorption, I awoke to want to learn about the purpose and meaning of life. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI'm writing this book to encourage men, especially, to seek good friends--not any friends. Men need to look for friends who will help them discover what's important in life. I hope men will talk to each other about the kinds of things my friend Arthur talked to me about. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat follows are some things that two friends talked about during five special years together. Our conversations appear in no particular order, though they are linked by the common hope that men might learn, grow, discover, and desire the good life--the \u003ci\u003ereally\u003c\/i\u003e good life, that is. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a story about the great good that real friendship can do. It's a story about my friend Arthur, how we met, what we did, what we talked about, and the profound effect his friendship has had on my life. I hope you have--or one day will have--such a friend, because such a friend is priceless inthe confusion and difficulty that life holds for us. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf hope you find a good friend with whom to share your won life and to grow wise, as good and wise a friend as Arthur was to me. May you find that someone, or may you come to \u003ci\u003edesire\u003c\/i\u003e to find such a friend--someone with whom you can share trivia as well as search out the deepest riches of wisdom.
