A straight-talking, uplifting and inspiring guide to living a better life and becoming a better human being - through compassion, tolerance, acceptance and love - from one our very best, most authentic and genuine people, the Reverend Bill Crews.

Hes been named one of Australias 100 most influential people, yet hes often considered a thorn in the side of his own church. Hes a fierce campaigner against poker machine gambling yet it was the proceeds of a horse race that first established his soup kitchen that now feeds thousands across the city. His Sunday-night radio show is the most widely listened to across the nation, but he often makes the news himself. He is a 75-year-old minister and regularly inspires news article headlines that read: What if we were all like Bill Crews? He is the epitome of compassion and often controversial. He is Bill Crews, the charismatic shepherd of Ashfield in Sydneys inner-west.

Bill has spent his entire adult life in the service of others, giving a voice to the truly voiceless, be they prostitutes on the streets of Sydneys Kings Cross, refugees fleeing ISIS in a shanty-town camp in Northern France, or Korean women abused during WWII. Bill Crews has spent an unfathomable amount of hours on the frontline of life with the marginalised, disenfranchised and the abandoned.

This book is for the secular and the spiritual alike; its for those who believe and those who dont, wont or cant. Its a much-needed and timely manifesto on being a better human and how to pay it forward. Its bottled wisdom - to help us all live a better life.
