Author, entrepreneur, and health advocate Bobby Bland has released his newest book, Lucky 13: Life Lessons Learned the Hard Way, a motivational and faith-centered exploration of life’s most meaningful lessons. Through personal stories, biblical references, and practical reflections, Bland offers readers encouragement, inspiration, and wisdom to navigate life’s challenges with faith and resilience.
What began as a running joke with his business partner, Emily Amadon, during their ownership of the health food concept Snack Lab, became a transformative writing project. As their journey with the business came to a close, Bland embraced the idea of sharing his life lessons in book form—Emily even co-authored a chapter.
About the Book
Lucky 13 is built around thirteen key principles that have shaped Bland’s life, each accompanied by reflective “Food for Thought” prompts. Drawing from personal experiences, scripture, and universal truths, the book provides inspiration for individuals, families, Bible study groups, book clubs, and Sunday school classes.
Highlights include:
- Powerful life lessons learned through real-world challenges
- Biblical verses for reflection and application
- Interactive prompts encouraging readers to apply lessons to their own lives
- A motivational framework designed to inspire growth, resilience, and faith
The number 13, significant throughout Bland’s life, serves as a meaningful thread connecting the chapters and reinforcing the book’s message of finding purpose through both trials and triumphs.
