Chad Freeman hired me on at Bosch 9 years ago. I worked for him first as an engineer and later as a neighboring department’s group leader supporting his.  During those 9 years, I never heard him speak negatively of anyone. He always chose to see the good in people – never the bad. He was…

Recap Based on some of the feedback from last week’s, “No Religion”: America’s Fastest Growing Religion – Part 1”, I think I need to be more clear about my reasons for writing this post. 40% of American Millennials identify as “No Religion”[1]. 89% of these Millennials believe that life evolved undirected[2].
