"James always has a great way of connecting with people through his incredible stories." - Pastor Rob Hemphill,  Northland Church


  • I was sitting in a dinghy with Mel Gibson, Danny Glover, Joe Pesci, and famed movie director Richard Donner for Warner Bros. blockbuster Lethal Weapon 4. We were preparing for a major stunt that included an ocean freighter, flaming barrels dropping from above, and AK 47's going off around me. it was important to go over a safety checklist. I was aware that jumping off a dinghy at 2 a.m. in the morning into the Pacific Ocean had its dangers; being hit by a speeding boat, dragged underwater by a freighter, or just even drifting out into the sea. Do you want to know what Richard Donner asked me just minutes before this stunt?

"He is an engaging and dynamic speaker."Marty Jean-Louis, President, ICFF


  • I was one of a handful of guest athletes invited to the Inauguration of Sri Lanka Unites after the 25-year civil war between the Sinhalese and the Tamil Tigers. While visiting the storied Cricket match "Twenty20" in the capital city of Colombo, between Pakistan and Sri Lanka, riots started to break out. Horsemen with nightsticks started beating people and tear gas started to fly. What did I do? What would you do?

"The impact that Master Lee’s Dragonfly program had on our students was profound." - Helen Leonard, The Paragon School


  • I started feeling this pressure on my body and a pain in my chest. I looked over at my wife, Jennie. I had even heard a voice say, "Get out of the car".  I said abruptly, "Stop the Car." What happened next was life-changing.
