Pep Talks
A Football Story about the Business of Winning
 (
Click here for full cover)

By Dr. Kevin Elko & Robert Shook / Thomas Nelson, 2008

The Pep Talk is a sports story-with solid business applications-about an underdog football team defeating a formidable opponent. Typically, a novelette of this type peaks at the end of the game, but it's in the pep talk where the real story begins.

"...a wonderful lesson on faith interacting with life's realities...you will be inspired to search within yourself to discover a better understanding of your inner faith." —John Tyson, Chairman, Tyson

“Kevin Elko has shown me and my team how to motivate themselves and achieve emotional balance on and off the field...” —Emmitt Smith, All-Time NFL Leading Rusher

       David Satcher, M.D., Ph.D., 16th U.S. Surgeon General

        Harmon J. Eyre, MD, Chief Medical Officer, American Cancer Society
