Bill Yoh was a seasoned corporate leader, but he had a lot to learn about leadership in the Kingdom. It was on a life-altering mission trip to Nicaragua that he learned a powerful new way of leading. That trip was the catalyst for a significant transformation, and ultimately led to his new book, Unvarnished Faith: Learning to Love with a Servant's Heart.

“Those who are served are not the leaders. It's those who do the serving that are the leaders.”
– Bill Yoh
Bill Yoh grew up in southeastern Pennsylvania and had a strong education. After spending most of his career working for the family business, he experienced a life-changing event when his mother passed away. This caused him to take his faith more seriously and pursue Christ with abandon. He wrote a book about his father and leadership, as well as a book about a mission trip he took to Nicaragua.
That mission trip helped Bill understand the importance of servant leadership, and the need to leave his privilege behind. He also learned the power of introspection and the importance of helping others tell their stories.
