The number-one New York Times bestselling author shares the secret of his success and teaches you how to achieve the blessed full life that belongs to youOn January 13, 2016, at the close of a taping of Family Feud, Steve Harvey spontaneously began to speak. Not knowing that the cameras were still rolling, the $100 million-dollar host offered his studio audience insights into his own happiness and success. His staff, also moved by Steve's passionate words, shared the riveting six-minute video on social media. The clip immediately went viral, with more than 58 million views worldwide! In this very personal and illuminating guide, the #1 New York Times bestselling author elaborates on those spontaneous remarks. His message is simple: You need to JUMP like your life depends on it - because it does - if you truly want a life of peace and abundance. Jump explores seven vulnerable "seasons" in the Emmy Award-winner life: being homeless and living out of his car, flunking out of college, enduring the emotional turmoil of a second failed marriage, risking stability to pursue his dream of television stardom, overcoming the Miss Universe mishap, blending his family, and owing the Internal Revenue Service $20 million. Steve uses these uncomfortable moments to explain his core principles and teach you what it means to JUMP: Identifying the lesson and the blessing in all that life brings our way; Isolating particular moments when we must be still and when we must take action; Implementing "humble aggression" to achieve our dreams; Placing past mistakes in our rearview mirror and creating a fresh life story; Letting go of people who are weighing us down; Taking responsibility in the face of adversity. At the heart of this mesmerizing read is faith - the confidence in knowing that leaping will elevate our lives, and that we will be caught when we fall. Don't stand on the cliff of life and watch others soar by, Steve tells us. If you take a leap of faith, God will open your parachute and "Give you life more abundantly." Life is an incredible journey. It's not good enough to exist - you need to live. You need to JUMP - to take a leap of faith, a risk toward the rich life God has planned for you.

Steve Harvey

Steve Harvey is a media conglomerate personified in a man whose career began doing stand-up comedy in the mid-1980s. His success as a stand-up comedian eventually led to a long stint as host of It's Showtime at the Apollo. His stand-up success has also led to multiple TV shows and movies, serving various roles on some projects acting, hosting, writing and producing, and his career has continued to flourish, becoming a top-rated radio host, fashion entrepreneur, best-selling author, popular game show host on Family Feud, and 2013 People's Choice Award winner as "Favorite New Talk Show Host" for his new daytime show Steve Harvey. Harvey just recently renewed deals in January 2013 for his daytime show and radio show.

On television, in addition to a seven-year stint hosting Apollo, he starred in ABC's Me and The Boys, the WB shows The Steve Harvey Show for six seasons and Steve Harvey's Big Time Challenge for two seasons.

Throughout his award-winning career, Harvey has never lost sight of his passion for stand-up comedy, touring the U.S and Canada. In 1997 he toured as one of the Kings of Comedy alongside Cedric The Entertainer, the late Bernie Mac and D.L. Hughley.

He Ain't Through With Me Yet, a clean and family-friendly DVD, unlike any he had ever done before.

Award winner Kirk Franklin, creating the first-ever Steve Harvey and Kirk Franklin Comedy Gospel Tour.
