Og has written a lot of good stuff over the years, including many books. Even though his works lean toward the Christian point of view, they don't do so in a heavy-handed manner.
I had the pleasure of meeting him several years ago at a booksigning when _The Twelfth Angel_ came out.
My favorite quote of his is from _The Greatest Salesman In The World_, from the scroll marked III: "I will persist until I succeed. I was not delivered unto this world in defeat, nor does failure course in my veins. I am not a sheep waiting to be prodded by my shepherd. I am a lion and I refuse to talk, to walk, to sleep with the sheep. I will hear not those who weep and complain, for their disease is contagious. Let them join the sheep. The slaughter house of failure is not my destiny."
I'm sad to say that he passed away sometime in the late 1990s.
