Deciding Where Your Duty Lies

Although Jesus, Socrates, and Joan of Arc are a few of the more notable martyrs, countless people have given up their lives for their duty over the last few centuries.

LIFE Leadership doesn't just provide material and resources, but also the support you need to grow as a person, and in turn become the best leader you can be!

Changing Your Perspective
