{"product_id":"2940151162258","title":"At My Father's Knee","description":"People are constantly exposed to influences of various kinds from countless sources. The consequences of acting on those influences can mean the difference in the direction of life, the shape of character and the eventual outcome. The effect of one life on another gives meaning and substance to relationship.\u003cbr\u003e    This is the inspiring story of a man who never called attention to himself but whose life and actions made attention unavoidable. From humble beginnings he began to engage in unlikely pursuits and was eventually placed in a totally unexpected position of significant responsibility beyond the limits of his educational preparation.   Throughout his personal and vocational life he manifested personal characteristics attributable to a number of sources. Most prominent was his conversion to Jesus Christ. That commitment changed his outlook, altered his course and set his agenda from that point on.\u003cbr\u003e    Over the years he exerted a profound effect on thousands of people--many directly, many more indirectly.  Among those who experienced the greatest impact on his life and character was someone who knew him best: his son. Without knowing the extent of the effect his beliefs and behavior were having, he was leaving footprints that his son would follow for a lifetime. \u003cbr\u003e    Both traveled paths that were vastly different in many ways, but were strikingly parallel in principle. That eventful story, as told by his son, details their separate but similar journeys, and presents a real-life account of the profound power that one person's example can unknowingly exert on those who observe it.","brand":"Xulon Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47109854953712,"sku":"2940151162258","price":8.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940151162258_p0.jpg?v=1764007997","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940151162258","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
