A Special Group of Testimonials for
The Angel Inside

The Angel Inside is truly one of the most inspiring, encouraging motivational books I have ever read. It speaks to everyone who has ever had a dream about anything that has significance. I found it impossible to stop reading, once I got started. This coming from a man who has never completely read a book of fiction, because I had a closed mind on the subject. I have always said, "When I get all of the truth, then I'll start reading fiction." It was a wonderful thrill to read a book of fiction that contained an enormous amount of truth and encouragement.   -- Zig Ziglar

“The Angel Inside is a powerfully simple story that helps you discover your potential for a passionate life!” —John C. Maxwell, author, speaker and founder of INJOY Stewardship Services and EQUIP

“Chris Widener’s The Angel Inside is a short read that is long on wisdom for life. Take an hour and a half of your time and delve into this truly meaningful book. It will captivate you from beginning to end, but more important, it will help you create your own life of power and beauty.”
—Jim Rohn

“A very special one-day relationship between a wise mentor and his struggling but eager protégé. What a delightful story for everyone to read, and from which to benefit greatly!"
—Bob Burg

It will be my pleasure Chris! I will forward on to my teams as many of them have been impacted by your teaching and training's as much as I have! The Angel Inside is beautifully written. You deserve the best!
-- Sherri

Hi Chris. I read this book from you and absolutely LOVED it! I will definitely take advantage of getting the bonus and buying a book for someone on my Arbonne team! Thank you so much!!
-- Liza Govoni, Executive Area Manager, Arbonne International

Hi Chris, My name is Jo and I met you in Atlanta about a year ago and thought you were absolutely AWESOME!!! You really did change my perspective on life and choices when you spoke to our group with Online Business Systems. We talk about you all the time in our training calls and jumped at the opportunity to help you out tonight with your book release (which I already have a copy of), but I saw where I could order the audio version and can't wait to get it to listen to you on my way to my day J-O-B while I build my own home business using the skills and lessons you teach us. I know you will be back to do another training with Online Business Systems soon, and very much look forward to seeing you in person again as reading can be reality, but seeing you in person can be life changing (that seeing is believing concept)! Good luck with your sales tomorrow and I wish you all the best for your future and hope one day I am as lucky as you in my personal success..
-- JoLynna King, Independent Herbalife Distributor

I'd be happy to buy your book tomorrow. You are incredibly movtivating. I also share your birthday on April 18th! So Happy Birthday Chris..
-- Lisa Camilliere, Executive District Manager, Independent Consultant, Arbonne Internationall

Chris....YOU can count me in and I sent it to my entire Nation asking them to do the same!!! Happy Birthday and I know this will come true for YOU!!! Thanks for all that you do for so many!
-- Laura

Dear Chris, I was privileged to meet you here in Dallas at the end of March and it would be a pleasure to help out. Both my teenage boys and I have learned and have grown so much thanks to your CDs and books, this is such a small way of repaying you. Good luck and Happy Birthday.
-- Tammy Oved, Arbonne International, Area Manager, Independent Consultant

I was so inspired by you at our Leadership Conference in Las Vegas! I didn't buy one but TWO of your new books. It's my birthday tomorrow and I couldn't think of a better gift! May God Bless your goal Chris!
-- Wendy Beggs ~ Tastefully Simple Team Mentor

Dear Chris - Happy, happy birthday April 18th! Thank you for the invitation, is this the same book I purchased several copies of before? Or is it a new version? Either way - it was awesome reading, I took lots of notes, continuously reflect back on its many great messages and I've shared the books with others I love. I loved The Angel Inside - God bless your service and family! Keep the wisdom flowing!!!
-- Betty Mullen

Chris I just finished it and it is dynamite! As a school counsellor, with my own personal side business, I hope to use it in my schools. Keep up the fabulous work, very creative and drives the point home in a solid fashion.
-- Paul

Dear Chris, we will certainly buy extra copies of The Angel Inside - wonderful book!!!! I am so proud of your success. Thank you for writing as you do and knowing that this is from the Lord - you have been given an incredible gift. Here in Cleveland, TN we are looking forward to your visit with us on June 8th and 9th. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!! May you continue to be blessed.
-- Sandra Presley, Arbonne International, Independent Consultant, Executive Regional Vice President

This is incredible!!! You know how much I love this book and quote from it often (actually I am even quoting from it at NTC!) I always get asked where can I find this book --- trust me, you too will want this book as well. Let's show our thanks to Chris for writing a book that can touch all our hearts. I even shared this book recently with someone from church after telling him how much I loved it -- he in turn shared it with a co-worker and was wanting copies too! You'll want copies on hand to give as gifts --- it's just THAT good!!! NVP's & VP's please forward to your teams!! Love ya~!
Linda Parker, Executive National Vice President, Independent Consultant, Arbonne International

Let's give Chris a really awesome Birthday. We have been so blessed to hear him speak and train both on our team call and in Naples. Let's give back by ordering "The Angel Inside" see the email below for details. We finally have an opportunity to do something for him and be rewarded in the process. How great is that. Let's pull together and make an impact. Thank you for your support, Please forward to your teams -- Linda Leitel

Hi Chris, I just wanted to let you know that I already have a paperback copy of the Angel Inside, but was delighted to be invited to help get the book to the no. 1 bestseller position, which it definitely deserves. I have ordered my hardback copy and collected my bonuses - thank you SO SO much (there are so many great titles I'm not sure where to start, so I think I'll read the Angel Inside again first, then decide!). I was wondering if I could forward your e-mail to my friends, colleagues and associates? I am an Independent Distributor with Herbalife International, so I know there would be many interested in your book, and all the free downloads, but I don't know if this offer is only for regular subscribers to your e-zine or if you are happy to receive all the help you can get? You would more than likely, increase your subscribers. I am a huge fan - you have made such a difference in my life - and I was thrilled to be asked to help you! Thank you most sincerely. One of my goals is that one day I might be able to take you out for lunch. In the meantime, I hope that my small purchase has helped you to the top of the best seller list, and I will happily forward your e-mail to my contacts as long as I have your permission. I hope you have a FANTASTIC birthday
-- Cath Thomson, UK

Hi Chris - best of luck on the 17th! I have already purchased a boatload of these and love this book. I will pass this along for you...

 Thanks for your generosity, it is so evident in your leadership how you are always giving back! I wanted to buy the book anyway, now I have some to give to friends also, you just helped me act, hope your goal is achieved! -- Jana

Hi There...
I bought mine!! I ABSOLUTELY LOVE that book!!! I bought 12 months ago and have given them as gifts or prizes in my business. The Image & 12 Pillars are amazing books as well. I have not read, physically read, front to back a book in years....many many years and I can say I have read those 3 books cover to cover!! I start many books...but I just could't put it down! I do enjoy many many books on cd. That is where I educate myself mostly. You all do such amazing work. I admire you very much!
Thanks again...I "passed it on" in an email to all my business associates and family & friends! Hope that helps!!
-- Sincerely, Miss Kitty

Outstanding Chris, Congratulations on earning #3 Amazon bestsellers.! -- Karen Priemer

Chris,
Just letting you know I bought your book "The Angel Inside" today via Amazon site....i hope that you are very successful and meet your goals. It must be frustrating to see The Secret..... coming from almost nowhere by an unknown 'author' hit the #1 ....when you have been doing this kind of work for so many years... I must admit that I bought the video The Secret and thought it was pretty great.

I have heard you speak at an Arbonne convention in Dallas metro area a year or so ago .... you are a fabulous speaker with a worthwhile message. I look forward to reading your book.

Best of wishes on your launch of this book!! -- Sincerely,Lily Raywood

Hi Chris, I don't know if you will get this message or not... but I wanted to say hello and thank you! My name is Neal. I've been promoting sales seminars off and on since Feb. of 1991... I've seen allot, read allot and hear allot but I like your style... My wife and I have been reading a couple of your books. We are both Christian and have wrestled with the "money is evil" for awhile... your book's title escapes me at the moment and it's upstairs and I'm not leaving my office to go get it... I trust that you will know the book of which I speak. Over the years, I have shared many tapes with my wife (I like myself...etc. etc.) and they haven't clicked with her until now with yours. I am just finishing up "Live the Life you've always dreamed Of"? Again, it's upstairs etc. etc. She commented on the Angel Inside before receiving your email today. I gladly purchased a copy of your new book along with a DVD of "The Pursuit of Happiness" so thanks for all the good stuff!!!!!! Continued success to you and your family! You are a breath of fresh air!
-- Neal

Chris---We support you and will be there for you!
-- Kim Hoffman, ENVP/Arbonne International Independent Consultant

Chris: It will be my pleasure to purchase your book. I contacted you some time ago after hearing your audio cd. I would still like the opportunity to meet you one day. I am now working on the development of motivational and success oriented company. I remember that I can have you become a coach and still plan to do so. Best wishes and I pray for your continued success.

Hi Chris, book purchased through Amazon as requested. Looks like excellent value for money. I am an avid reader and have been on the Nightingale Conant list for over 10 years. I am also a fan of Jim Rohn's work and have purchased many of his programmes. Good luck with your target to be number one on Amazons list. Once I have read it I will e mail you with some feedback and pass the book along to my daughter.
-- John

Thanks for sharing, I got the email directly too from JR. :) I absolutely LOVE Chris Widener and his books! I bought it at the conference and I bought it this morning again! Have you read his other books, I just love "The Image". Again as always, thank you for thinking of me! Hugs.

Happy Birthday to You, Chris. From Across the Water on Whidbey Island! ~~It was great to meet you at Tastefully Simple's Leadership Conference in Las Vegas this past January. I've listened to your tapes and read several of the books so far. Let us know what happens with The Angel Inside. I purchased mine this morning!! ~~~Namaste -- Kristi Etzell, Team Mentor, Tastefully Simple

Your books are wonderful…what a talent you have! I really liked The Image, as well as Angel Inside. Of course, Twelve Pillars was superb, too. But the one I found absolutely amazing was Four Seasons. All of them convey important life and career lessons, while grabbing and holding the reader's attention with the story. When's the next one coming out? -- Penny Connerley

As I began to read this book, it was not long before the tears began to flow down my face, because somehow I could feel what this book was going to say to me, on a deep level. I have seen David and knew how Michelangelo visualized the figure inside the stone. It is what is there for all of us to do, bring out the great one inside us through the chiseling and polishing of life. I felt blessed to have read it.

Dr. Richard Presser - Australia


Hello Chris,

I shopped for the ebook on The Angel Inside via the internet, and I must say my life can never remain the same again. As I started reading, I could not stop. And I promise myself to read it all over again and again, until the angel inside of me comes out. Thanks, Chris for touching my life! Some day it will be a great pleasure to meet you in person.

Regards,
Omowunmi (Lagos, Nigeria)


Dear Chris,

I recently read The Angel Inside and was moved to tears by this OUTSTANDING short story. It is a simple tale, wonderfully articulating how to discover the masterpiece which is inside each of us. It uses the metaphor of Michelangelo's statue of David to portray the secret treasure that can be envisioned by the eye of the beholder. The story is so compelling I couldn't put it down until I finished reading it, and then I began to read it again because I wanted to make sure I captured even more of it's incredible message. As soon as I finished it the second time I passed it on to my cousin because I was hoping he would see his inner splendor through reading this treasure. I LOVE this little book and feel it is destined to become a best seller!

Warm regards,
Rick Panson - New York


Chris Widener's The Angel Inside gave me a whole new appreciation for seeing the beauty inside each of us, even when it may appear to others that nothing is there. The truth is that we all have greatness inside of us that is just waiting to be tapped into & polished into reality... we just have to be willing to work on the gifts that are there. I love what Chris says, "You Are Made for Success!" because it is so true!!!

Tanya Watson


I had been walking around the last 47 years ignoring the angel inside of me. I embraced everyone else's angel, even tried to borrow and adopt theirs...meanwhile my angel never gave up on me. Ever since I read Chris Widener's book, "The Angel Inside" and I was challenged to take the mud off my eyes .. ask myself some challenging questions, my life has revealed a whole new layer of riches under the mud was a powerful angel. ME!

Penny Langdon


What an inspiring story! I read and reread The Angel Inside and wished that Chris had written this book years ago! My copy has been passed around to all of my three children and is now making its rounds with my co-workers. I'm afraid it is becoming ragged so I must order more copies soon! Thank you, Chris Widener!

Terrie Runnels

P.S. I was fortunate enough to hear Chris speak at a seminar in Dallas a few weeks ago and I listen to his CDs during my commute to and from work. What an incredible motivator!


Dear Chris,

I read your book, The Angel Inside, and wished that I could have read a book like it early in my life. What an advantage it would have given me. I decided at that time that I would require my son, who had just turned sixteen, read it before I would buy him a car. He rejected the idea until he realized I was dead serious. My son is a great kid. He is smart, but has never done well in school, so he looked at it as an unreasonable demand rather than an easy challenge with a big reward. He would have opted for a root canal, if I had given him a choice. At this time in his life (11th Grade), many of his friends are talking about college, and reps are visiting his school. I sensed that he was getting a little depressed about the whole thing. Although he would not admit it, I worried that he was feeling left out and not very good about himself.

What a difference reading your book has made. I see a renewed confidence within him. He is working harder and doing better in school. He received a quarter grade of 98 in geometry! He is talking about his talents and the classes he likes at school. He has even gone to his counselor and discussed career choices that would make use of his talents. Wow!

Chris, no matter how encouraging a parent tries to be, it doesn't mean very much to a sixteen year old. Thanks to you for getting the point across and giving my son a real sense of his true self worth. And for your information, we're now shopping for a Ford F150.

Sincerely,
Tom Cappel - Cincinnati, OH


I was intrigued by this book the moment I heard about it. A friend had just shared about a thirty-something son who was having trouble finding himself, and that sparked my interest in reading the book quickly so that I might recommend it to her. What I particularly like about The Angel Inside is that it teaches basic concepts with imagination. The same things can easily be said to me in a prosaic, power point kind of presentation. But I appreciated that the main character was open, teachable, and humble and that the teacher in the book was encouraging and caring as he presented the important life lessons that would set the young man onto the right track.

It was possible to do my own examination while reading, which led to the transforming of my thinking concerning several experiences in my life. I appreciate this book and hope that it will have an expanded readership.

Cordially,
Jan Williams - Huntington, WV


I have read Chris Widener's book, The Angel Inside 3 times. There are so many valuable lessons to learn that it is worth reading over and over. Not only is it valuable and life changing, but very entertaining. Every time I have picked it up to read it, I have had a very hard time putting it down. I have an 18 year old daughter who just started college this year, and has decided on a pre-law program against the support of many friends and family members. I had her read the book so she understands the value of following her own dreams and passions, and now she is a lot more confident in her choice and excited about her future.

Thanks to Chris for making such an incredible contribution!

Carla Stock - Denver, Colorado


This book has literally changed how I look at myself, at others, and life itself! I now know that every person and every situation has the potential to become something great. I have learned that it is up to ME to look beyond what I can see at the moment to what can be. Thank you Chris for helping me to see the potential that lies within myself to accomplish great things. You have renewed my resolved and my determination to take ACTION towards achieving my dreams!

The book was so entertaining and easy to read, while at the same time teaching great lessons! The lessons were challenging and thought provoking.

Chris,

I received my copy of The Angel Inside. I could not put it down until I had read it completely. Very inspiring and meaningful. It reminded me of the phrase that I have heard so many time, You may have entertained an Angel and didn't realize it. Thanks for writing it.

Chris, I was recently gifted with your book The Angel Inside. It is a must read for everyone. I plan to give

it to high school and college graduates, as well as everyone on my Arbonne team. I want to pay forward the blessings I have received and this was a great blessing. Thank you for helping us all see the "Angel Inside" us.

Fantastic new book Chris... really enjoyed the read, keep up the great work!

Chris, I enjoyed my first read of The Angel Inside (I am sure I will read it several more times in the next few weeks to mine more nuggets of wisdom).

My review is:

"An instant classic!! If you can read this gem without a genuine transformation - check your pulse ... to see if you have one.

This is exactly the type of book Charles Tremendous Jones had in mind when he quipped - You will be the same person in five years you are today except for the people you meet and the books you read.

Gregg Golson

ps. your CD set - the power of influence rocks!!


Dear Chris,

I loved The Angel Inside so much that I bought eleven books for people in my church to have an opportunity to read. The book gave me such insight for living and was a delightful and surprising ending. Thank you so much for writing it.

Hi, this book is one of a kind. I recommend it to anyone and everyone who has ever asked the question ''why'' ? The answer, seek the angel inside, we were all created to be a somebody.

I read The Angel Inside and found it excellent! I read a lot of personal development but sometimes find the stories can be too simple as to go over the heads of readers. Not so with this book! A very clever story which leads the reader to acknowledge for themselves that there is a better "me" inside me trying to get out. We only have to "chip away" at our raw states in order to become the person we want to become.

I have no doubt that both the angel inside and Chris Widener will go on to sell a shed load of stuff! Catch him while you can because I know how well he is respected by the leaders of our network! And therefore his influence, written or spoken, will be sought out again!

Regards,
John W Murphy


Chris Widener's book, The Angel Inside, is amazing! I feel this book is a must for everyone who is interested in rediscovering their passion and taking the first step to personal growth. I have recommend this book to everyone that I know!

If anyone has a problem with your book, they must not be from this planet. Congratulations on your efforts and very human insightfulness.

Yours truly,
Louis


Dear Chris,

What a great book, if only we could have it put into the hands of all those who need to realize just how special they really are I believe millions would benefit from your wonderful words. Thanks for all you do.

Chris,

Excellent stuff. Kept me on my toes all through my reading and gave me numerous spurts of "positive vibes". Thank you my friend.

My husband and I both read the book and thoroughly enjoyed the message it delivered . We have recommended the book to our friends. It was great!

The Angel Inside is the smallest most powerful book I have ever read. It will definitely change your life. If you're looking to improve your outlook on life, this is a must read.

Luise Szaukellis


How do you become the person God has designed you to be? The Angel Inside teaches you how to look inward and discover your greatness bit by bit. I've learned that my life can be my own best "masterpiece". Thanks, Chris, for giving me valuable gifts to pass on to my children.....the gift of self-love and patience with oneself.

Kim Dassel


Chris, I honestly believe this to be a classic in the making. While the book is short and easy to read, it is inspiring, timeless and meaningful. A must read for anyone that is looking to improve their life, from the inside out. I read the book in about 3 hours and absolutely could not put it down!

Jill Respass


Dear Chris,

I had a great pleasure to have met you in person and listen to your speech. I thought that alone changed/charged me as a person. But after reading your book, The Angel Inside, it helped me to confirm who I was all this time. I am proud to say that no matter who I have become and what I had to go through to get where I was, I have never changed my personality. You are the next genius after Dale Carnegie and your book is a Master Piece of the Century. I can only wish that my husband was just like you.

The Angel Inside is such an inspirational book. I have always been a dreamer, but putting feet to those dreams wasn't always easy. Chris Widener, through his wonderful story, allowed me to see the steps I needed to take to achieve the success I deserve. Now I am on the journey to fulfill my dreams.

Make It A Great Day!

Dear Chris!

Angel Inside puts time-tested principles inside a wonderful story to nudge us toward taking more personal responsibility for our destiny. It is a wonderfully inspiring, easy-to-read book.

Thanks,

Chris,
Your book, Angel Inside, is a powerful and easy to read book, reminiscent of Og Mandino. My family and business team members have all enjoyed your book immensely. My grandchildren are next to read it, or have it read to them. Keep up the good work.
Best Regards,

Your book was an eye opener to the stages of my life. I was able to incorporate your teaching in a seminar entitled, "Destined for Greatness." You made it an easy read, yet a life changing experience. Thanks!
-- Dawn Dennis


Dear Mr. Widener,
I met you last week in Atlanta in the Online Business Systems Seminar, it's been only a couple of days and I've already read your book, it is AWESOME! I just could not put it down. Thank you for such wonderful and inspiring book. I'm Hispanic and I've told a lot of people about you, some of my closest friends do not speak English, so my question is, do you have a Spanish version of the book?
Thank you,
Diana Carrillo


The Angel Inside is a life changing book. I loved it and tell everyone, especially if they are struggling that they need to read it too...
-- Roxanne Belmont


Chris' story The Angel Inside weaves in and out of the life of a young man, Tom, (doubting Thomas), who through a chance meeting with an old man (imagined or otherwise) helps him find his purpose, his goals, why he's here, and how he can get where he wants to be...Tom must look inside himself and find what he's been looking for his whole life. This story meant so much to me. I've been working my Arbonne business now for about six months, and The Angel Inside speaks directly to what I've been learning and putting into action in my business. The Angel Inside reinforces that we each need to chip and chisel and then smooth out the marble that is our life so that we can find true success within ourselves.

A short, direct, and great read!
-- Debbie Ledbetter


Dear Chris,
I found this book one of the most inspiring I have read in recent years. Whilst being an entertaining read it put me in touch with myself; helped me focus on my aims and ambitions and the abilities I have inside that I wasn't fully recognizing. Since reading the book, I have set out new goals with realistic time frames and am working towards them at a steady pace. My favourite line from the book is "No one starts with the Sistine Chapel" That thought alone keeps me on the right track when I hit the bumps in the road and think my progress is too slow. Best regards and thanks for the book it truly was the best book I read in 2005.
-- Lesley Leon


Chris,
The Angel Inside is extremely enlightening and worthwhile reading. Anyone taking the time to read it will improve their thinking and practicing the principles will make them a better person. It is hard to put down. Good luck with your new efforts.
-- Jerry Davis


Most of the world is locked in the box of dissatisfaction. The Angel Inside is the key to opening that box. As I read this profound book it occurred to me that I had not yet found the angel inside of me, and my life would not be all that it could be until that angel was released. This book has opened my eyes and caused me to look within myself to begin to free the angel inside.
-- Adam Smith


Such an easy-to-read book that just grabs you enough to where you don't want to put it down. As I read the words, I was applying it all to my own life and knew that I could be great at whatever I chose. I'd like to see this book offered in the prisons - it just may give hope to the lost. I feel the same way about 12 Pillars which I also loved. Thanks!
-- Sue Huber


The Angel Inside is profoundly positive that shines brightly in a negative world. Neither pollyannic or simplistic, the short read leaves lasting results and serves as a starting, or re-starting point, for genuine success...and enjoyment...in life.
-- Rev. John R. (Jack) Hager


I was so impressed with this "little" book that I have my work team reading it. It's a must read for anyone who dreams of something "more" in their life. It's simple yet profound insight is of great inspiration to all who I have shared it with.

Chris, I just returned home from Breakthroughs II in San Francisco. Thanks for sharing all that you did. During my layover in Vancouver, and then on my way home to Winnipeg, I read both of your books, The Angel Inside and Twelve Pillars – I couldn’t put them down. All I can say is WOW! Both books spoke to me in many ways. It is guaranteed that I am going to be re-reading them again and again, as I am sure more lessons will come to me each time. I am going to be printing off the 10 "Principles" from "The Angel Inside" as well as the "12 Pillars of Success" and putting them on my desk so I see them every day. Thanks again.
