As he lay helpless in the hospital, he resented the theft of his dreams, becoming a CEO, a Delta Force operator, or a four-star general. With his wife Tiffany's love and the support of his family and friends, Scotty's response became God's transforming moment. The injury only intensified his indomitable spirit. Since the moment he jumped out of a hospital bed and forced his way through nurses and cords to take a simple shower, Captain Scotty Smiley has climbed Mount Rainier, won an ESPY as Best Outdoor Athlete, surfed, skydived, become a father, earned an MBA from Duke, taught leadership at West Point, commanded an army company, and won the MacArthur Leadership Award. Scotty and Tiffany Smiley have lived out a faith so real that it will inspire you to question your own doubts, push you to serve something bigger than yourself, and encourage you to cling to a Hope Unseen. 600 10 Smiley, Scotty. 650 0 Christian biography|zUnited States. 650 0 Blind|zUnited States|vBiography. 650 0 War wounds|xPatients|zUnited States|vBiography. 650 0 Iraq War, 2003-2011|xVeterans|zUnited States|vBiography. 700 1 Crandall, Doug,|d1971- 938 Ingram|bINGR|n9781439183793 938 Baker and Taylor|bBTCP|nBK0008652418 994 92|bCKE
