    Help Us Build the Make Peace With Life Movement What if one simple message could change someone's life? What if one podcast episode helped someone realize they weren't broken? What if one conversation helped someone smile again after months of struggling? That's why we created the  Make Peace With Life Podcast . This isn't just another podcast. It's the beginning of a movement. You Are Not Broken One of the biggest lies people hear today is that they're somehow "broken." The world constantly tells us we need to be fixed. That we're not successful enough. Not attractive enough. Not productive enough. Not spiritual enough. Not enough. We believe something very different. We believe that you are  not broken . You're human. You're growing. You're learning. You're evolving. Sometimes life knocks us down. Sometimes we lose our way. Sometimes we simply need someone to remind us that happiness is still possible. That's exactly what ...

    Courageous Communication: The conversations corrections leaders keep putting off Avoiding difficult conversations can undermine accountability, morale and operational readiness Every supervisor has a conversation they’re avoiding: the slipping report writer, the disengaged veteran, the two officers who stopped speaking. This article argues that putting those talks off slowly wears down accountability, morale and readiness until a small issue becomes a grievance, a use-of-force review or a resignation. It gives practical guidance on setting a calm tone before tension rises, giving feedback that develops rather than punishes, earning the respect that makes correction land, stepping into conflict early, and holding standards consistently, including with the people you like most. A real mentorship story shows what coaching looks like in practice. The core message is that leaders are judged by whether their people leave better than they arrived.

        From There to Here and Beyond: Evidence of Spiritual Warfare By: Constance ‘Destiny’ Johnson Some journeys are not about escaping the past, but discovering what can still be built beyond it. A memoir can do more than recount what happened. At its most meaningful, it can give language to experiences readers may have struggled to understand and show how a life shaped by hardship can continue to change. That is the territory Destiny B. Sincere explores in  From There to Here and Beyond: Evidence of Spiritual Warfare . The book begins with memories of family, church, childhood security, and belonging before that stability gradually fractures. Alcoholism, domestic violence, abuse, damaged self-worth, difficult relationships, and destructive choices become part of a much larger journey. Rather than presenting those experiences as isolated episodes, the memoir considers how early wounds can follow a person into adulthood and influence the way that person unders...

          Fundamentals of Power-Filled Living: How to Live a Power-Filled Life Through Daily Application of God's Word By Robert Canton What Does It Mean to Live with God’s Power in Everyday Life? At a time when faith-based and self-help writing often competes for attention with quick fixes and instant answers, Robert Canton’s  Fundamentals of Power-Filled Living: How to Live a Power-Filled Life Through Daily Application of God’s Word  takes a more grounded approach. Its central concern is not simply what Christians believe, but what those beliefs look like when practiced through prayer, trust, service, forgiveness, humility, and reliance on the Holy Spirit. Canton writes from years of experience in the Catholic Charismatic Renewal, including leading prayer meetings, giving spiritual talks, serving as a Catholic evangelist, and conducting healing and deliverance ministries in the United States and abroad. That ministry background gives the book an expe...

    50 YEARS IN A SECT: My Life with a Radical 'Sex Cult'! 50 Years in a Sect: My Life with a Sex Cult!  tells the story of life within one of recent history’s most controversial religious sects: The Children of God! Later changing its name to the Family of Love, or simply ‘The Family’ -- the fast-growing and highly unorthodox Christian movement gained notoriety as a ‘sex cult’ due to its practice of using sex to win converts! It also believed in sexual ‘sharing’ with other adults within one’s communal group. Following a firebrand maverick preacher, members left their old lives behind and dropped out of society to begin new lives in idealistic communes, made up mostly of ex-hippies and society rejects who now lived together and shared everything. Members quickly learned that the end of the world was not far away, with Jesus expected to come back in 1993! David Berg, nicknamed Moses David, the founder and self-styled prophet of this ‘spiritual revolution’, had warning drea...

    UNTAUGHT  Learn faster. Remember more. Stop blanking under pressure The Science of Why You Forget Names — and What Actually Fixes It You meet someone at a conference. They tell you their name. You repeat it back, shake their hand, maybe even comment on it. Ten seconds later, someone else joins the conversation. Now you need to introduce your new acquaintance. And the name is gone. Not fuzzy. Not on the tip of your tongue. Just simply gone, the way a browser tab closes without a trace. If this has happened to you, the instinct is to treat it as a personal failing. A sign your memory isn't as sharp as you'd like. It isn't that. Remembering names and faces reliably has very little to do with how smart or attentive you are. It has everything to do with something simpler: two very different kinds of information, and a brain that was only ever built to handle one of them well. This is one of the exact problems  UNTAUGHT: The Memory System You Were Never Taught to Use ...
