What people are saying about Silver to Gold

“Silver to Gold is an inspirational story to dream seemingly impossible dreams. It is an encouragement to press through every challenge and obstacle, until our vision becomes a reality. Jen is an awesome young revolutionary who has courageously pressed in to the dreams of God for her own life regardless of the cost, and counted it all as joy! I highly recommend this book to everyone who is not prepared to settle for anything less than the very best!”
-Heidi Baker, Ph.D, Founding Director, Iris Ministries, Inc.



“I have known Jen for over ten years and I have watched her live the Silver to Gold adventure. I have witnessed the birth of this book as she talked and wrote this epic story. It came out of her soul not just her mind. This adventure will stir, invigorate and compel you to go for the Gold. I highly recommend it.”
-Robert Fulton, Vineyard International Coordinator Emeritus


“This is a modern-day Pilgrim's Progress, a tale that resonates with both science fiction and allegory of a young woman who rejects a life of compromise and finds her true fulfillment in overcoming obstacles and discouragements to reach her higher goals. This is inspirational reading that will inspire and resonate with any of us who have been tempted to give up. Once you pick up this fascinating story you will not want to put it down.”
-Dr. Allan Anderson, author of Spreading Fires


"A revolutionary book/novel for 'young revolutionaries' (in the book's subtitle) written by a PhD student (at the University of Birmingham, UK) who aspires to inspire; the book comes with all kinds of added dimensions at the www.silvertogold.com website - its riveting prose will keep us enthralled even while its message - to inspire us all to reach beyond the silver lining& horizons that often limit us so that we can reach the gold standard! - means that it will work well as a gift to high school & even college graduates."- Amos Young, author of many books, one being The Spirit Poured Out on All Flesh



"Jen, did you put superglue on my copy? Cause I COULDN'T PUT IT DOWN!! Gripping, powerful, encouraging and challenging. Loving your work! The week after I got my job, I read Silver to Gold and, as well as being gripped by the story, I saw clear links with my own experience. I felt motivated to keep moving forward to the next goal, the next challenge, the next step. Silver to Gold challenges you to not settle for second best, but to push on towards the fulfillment of your dreams, and to encourage those around you to do the same. This book could change your life..." - Steve, UK

Silver to Gold Project

The Silver to Gold Project is a network of dreamers. The project is all about connecting dreamers with each other to mutually encourage, support, challenge, and inspire other dreamers to go after their dreams and not stop until they have seen them come to pass. Being a member of this project means that one is agreeing to do whatever it takes to accomplish their dreams or goals that they have deep inside their hearts. It is a commitment to not settle for the good in life, but to go for the best, to not settle for silver, but to go for gold. It means being willing to take big risks, make huge sacrifices if necessary, to follow through in living your dreams.

The Background Story of this project lies in a dream that I have been pursuing for the last 5 years. My dream is to publish my book and get it around the world to inspire people towards living an amazing and abundant life filled with dreams come true. The book is a fiction allegory entitled “Silver to Gold” that one day WILL BE published if it is the last thing I do. This is one of my current dreams that I am still actively pursuing. Working on a story like this also means that if I am to have any integrity in this work that I too must be living a life where I am actively engaged in pursuing all the dreams God’s put in my heart.

Some of the Inspiration that helped move me toward this project came when I had coffee with a friend this past week. Bekah, I have known for over 7 years and have always seen her to have a gift with music. As we met, we each shared where we were at in pursuing our different dreams, me with my book, her with her music career. I have no doubt in my mind that if we both continue hanging tight to our dreams and pursuing them, making necessary sacrifices and taking risks where needed, that one day we will both be able to sit down for coffee again and swap a published book for a published CD. You see, people need to experience the gift and talent that Bekah brings (look for her @ http://www.myspace.com/bekahdriscoll), they also need to experience the story that I bring because that is part of the reason we are here. I realized that during and after our time together, that I was further encouraged to move forward with my dream. Being around others who are passionate about living the dreams in their heart can only inspire and encourage those around them to do the same. This is my hope for this project. May it bring courage to each who enters to take one more step towards the fulfillment of their dreams. More coming soon on this...
