In my free time, I love to make people laugh. I enjoy detailing cars and I have co-authored SEVEN books with former Miss Colorado and some other friends. LOOK OUT for my new book "FINAL APPROACH - Career vs Calling?" hitting stores in May 2008!
Love to play basketball and was QB of my college intramural team. It is still fun to throw the football. Enjoy movies, riding roller coasters and making a difference in the lives of others! Also enjoy playing hide and go seek at Wal-Mart! Plus they make you feel good when you walk in :) Also love making personal appearances at CRACKER-BARELL.
Music

Movies
I am a HUGE Sly Stallone fan. Had the pleasure to meet Sly in 8th grade after winning a RAMBO contest. For a 13 year old kid it was a DREAM COME TRUE. We reunited 20 years later in 2005, in Las Vegas at the shooting of ROCKY BALBOA. I love anything related to patriotism or perseverance. My favs include: RUDY, ROCKY, HOOSIERS, Air Force One, Star Wars, Raiders of the Lost Ark. I also enjoy Denzel Washington!
Television
With my travelling schedule don't watch much television. Actually, love the oldies like Sanford and Son, Good Times, Brady Bunch, Leave it to Beaver, Andy Griffith and others. Mostly I watch Trinity Broadcast Network (TBN). West Wing and 24 was fun to watch too! My ALL-time favorite tv commercial is the SUPER BOWL Classic of the kid giving Pittsburg Steeler HALL OF FAMER "Mean" Joe Green his COKE! When he tosses the kid his jersey that is PRICE-less! WATCH VIDEO BELOW -
Books
I read the entire Bible by the time I was in 8th grade. I love books on inspiration, overcoming obstacles, autobiographies and anything by Max Lucado or Sam Glenn!
Without a doubt my HERO of all-time is JESUS CHRIST. CHECK OUT this video below - Do you know My King?
Heroes
Without a doubt my hero is JESUS CHRIST. I admire my parents, I also admire Dr Billy Graham, Mother Teresa and President George W Bush. My parents are my heroes. Dad reached the top of his profession and still remained humble. That is success! My mom left a good government job to work three times harder for four times less salary to become a teacher. That is not only sacrifice but success too.
As a child I love Rocky Balboa.....not because the man never lost but because he never quit. Its not wrong to be knocked down in life but wrong to stay on the canvas of life and not get back up! I also loved Superman! I still believe that the good guys win in this life and the life to come!
Of course, my daughter Hannah Grace (age six) because when I grow up I want to be just like her. She is the air to my lungs, the hope in my heart and because of her.....Daddy is still around. I love you Monkey!

About me: Hey guys! My name is Frank and I am a Christian motivational speaker/evangelist. At 35, I worked 16 yrs on Capitol Hill but love speaking across America at schools, churches and civic events. I love impersonating celebrities (Stallone, Bill Clinton, Alf, Star Wars, Billy Graham and others. In 2001, I was tapped to be Vice President of NATIONAL CHRISTIAN YOUTH SPEAKERS NETWORK. If you know of a group or artist that is looking for someone to travel with them in concert please pass along my info.
My website is www.FrankShelton.com and it would be great to hear from you. Remember, it doesn't matter where you have been......all that matters is where you are heading! Today is a gift and that is why it is called the Present!
Look for the new ROCKY BALBOA movie on DVD. It was my pleasure to be an extra in the final fight scene. Sly Stallone looks great at 60! Millions loved "ROCKY" not because he never lost...but because the man never quit. Friends, you may be down, discouraged, defeated, depressed or even a commited Christian and divorced but if you are not dead then God is NOT done with you!

Who I'd like to meet: I would love to have met President Abraham Lincoln. I am also a huge ELVIS PRESLEY fan. My parents took me to see Elvis in concert TWICE when I was five years old. It would have been great to have had lunch with the late King of Rock N Roll. He had more charisma on stage than Bill Clinton. He was a cool cat.
I would love to meet BILLY GRAHAM. He has touched more people arguably in the last century than any political or celebrity figure. I really believe when we put God first He puts us first!
Can't wait to meet JESUS CHRIST Face to face. I love that old song: "What a day that will be. When Jesus I shall see. When He looks upon my face. The One Who saved me by His grace. Forever, I will be. With the One, Who died for me. What a day. Glorious day. That will be."
