The Common Man

The paths we choose to take in life have a large effect and impact on who and what we become.

The Common Man is author Mark Vancil's story of the paths he has taken or encountered through his life. Through it all, if he has learned anything, he has learned first and foremost that God is always with us, even when it seems like he is not. We should all remember not to judge others, because we are not fit to do so. God is always with us; we don't have to face our challenges alone.
