Who is This Guy?
A Bit of Bio
THE TOP TEN series launched on January 12 and published its last episode yesterday. As the last five episodes unfolded, one question seemed to dominate the SUBSTACK community.
Ben Gill, who is this guy anyway? To answer that question, we refer you to his memoir, STUMBLING UP THE STAIRWAY TO HEAVEN.
From a three-room farmhouse in Arkansas, where he was born, to founder and CEO of the largest fundraising company in the world, his life story unfolds for your reading enjoyment.
Amazon’s literary editor wrote:
When life’s deck seems to be stacked against you, it can often be a daunting journey to the top—taking one step forward and five steps back. This is Ben Gill’s personal journey of overcoming unbelievable odds to become one of the most inspirational and successful men in business.
Born into abject poverty in rural Arkansas, Gill is reared in a fiercely religious community and spends seven years in preparation to spread the Word and preach about a God he’s not sure exists.
As an adult, Gill climbs the ranks, publishing 8 books, creating a blog with 80,000 readers, becoming a respected motivational speaker, and founding and serving as CEO of a company that grew into the world's largest fundraising organization. Through it all, he battles severe depression and suffers from crippling suicidal thoughts.
Stumbling Up the Stairway to Heaven takes you on an unbelievable journey from a sharecropper’s house to the majestic mountains of Colorado. Experience one man’s search for serenity and happiness—and how he finally finds harmony and peace.
Stumbling Up the Stairway to Heaven is available at Amazon.com for $9.99.
