"""A Life at the Crossroads is a master class in leadership, told through a compelling life story. Michael Cooper-White has been an eyewitness to key events in church and society, and he has participated in them with vision and courage."" --H. George Anderson, former presiding bishop, Evangelical Lutheran Church in America ""Michael Cooper-White's captivating autobiography is truly revelatory, firstly, in the sense that it honestly lays bare vital details of his eventful life. Further, in an earthy way, this work provides an inspiring glimpse into God's relentless grace at work as this Midwestern farm boy has traversed various pathways of opportunity, adventure, and even danger, in pursuit of a multifaceted calling. Readers will receive encouragement for their own adventures and may well be lured to look out for next steps as the author continues his 'unfinished journey.'"" --Michael Miller, executive vice president and dean, Brite Divinity School"
