Jim Burch has authored 16 books. In some years, Jim also reached over 30,000 people as a public speaker. While coming from a Christian background, Jim talks of universal human longings and understandings. Non-Christians are usually the first ones to tell him, "That's what I believe! Why haven't I heard it said that way before?" Jim deeply believes - as ultimately does every religion, culture, philosophy, or theology - that (whatever it is we each call) Divinity lives within every human being. It lives in everything that is - so that everything is an individuated manifestation of Divinity, this All-Loving Consciousness that infuses the world with its life and its meaning, its existence, its life, and love.

As a result, he honors that Divinity within every person. He has a conviction that this divine Universal Consciousness, which gives existence to all, is a sort of garden of many beautiful flowers, including some beautiful weeds. He always leaves his readers with a brighter understanding of who they are and why they are here in this life. Readers find a renewed vision of their purpose as individuals to take with them when they leave.

Jim Burch brings a broad background to his writings. He was a real estate developer for much of his career, including National Harbor, the largest mixed-use development in metropolitan Washington, DC, 1 1/2 mile waterfront development on the Potomac River with over a mile of frontage on the DC Beltway. Early on, Jim Burch worked for the federal government's Office of Economic Opportunity ("War on Poverty") all over the US - rural and urban areas, on Indian reservations, in hunger programs, and on migrant worker issues. He has been a lecturer and participant on numerous panels. Jim has been a political consultant on multiple campaigns for individuals running for governor, senator, congressman, and president and was the first press secretary to U.S. Senator (later President) Joseph Biden. He was also the founding chairman of the World Trade Center Washington, D.C. He was ordained a Catholic priest (while married) and later a bishop (now retired). When working in Morocco, then-King Hassan II asked the American Ambassador what Jim Burch was like, and the Ambassador, Tom Nassif, immediately answered: "Jim Burch is the kind of man that built America."

Jim and Patty Burch have 5 children and 13 grandchildren.
