My just released memoir is titled:
So why is that the past few days I have been on the edge of tears?
There is so much going on in my life right now both personally and professionally, more to come on that later.
Not to mention the chaotic and confusing world we find ourselves living in right now. But like the Ringo Kid (John Wayne) said in Stagecoach
“Well, there are some things a man just can’t run away from. “
My friends I am not running but I am being wise as every warrior must be if they are to survive and thrive. May God bless you. Stay strong and remember sometimes even the strongest cowboys cry.
But Jesus Himself would often slip away to the wilderness and pray. ~Luke 5:15 NASB
Do not fear, for I am with you; I will bring your offspring from the east, And gather you from the west. ~Isaiah 43:5 NASB
These things I have spoken to you to that in Me you may have peace. In the world you have tribulation, but take courage; I have overcome the world. ~John 16:33 NASB
There are a lot of troubling things going on all over the world right now. Whether you agree or disagree with decisions being made, I think we can all agree that the current state of affairs is troubling. As we watch events unfold we cannot help but think and worry about the impacts on your personal world. Our families and friends, our workplaces and places we visit all are feeling the effects.
I am in the midst of many changes in my personal life and the decisions often seem overwhelming. However, I trust the one who has the answers even when he doesn’t reveal them to me. I talk a lot about this in my memoir ๐๐จ๐ฐ๐๐จ๐ฒ๐ฌ ๐๐ซ๐ ๐๐จ๐ญ ๐๐ฎ๐ฉ๐ฉ๐จ๐ฌ๐๐ ๐ญ๐จ ๐๐ซ๐ฒ which was just published by Christian Faith Publishing and is available on Amazon.
I have to remind myself that I am not truly alone and there are others struggling with decisions and impacts as well. I think we have a couple of options:
Do not rejoiceย over me, enemyย of mine.
Tweet
Thoughย I fallย I will rise;
Thoughย I liveย in darkness, the LORDย is a lightย for me.
~Micah 7:8
There are changes coming my friends. Perhaps some for the better and some for the worse. Who knows?
I cannot see that far in the future to know what may come. There is one who does because he is already there and that is where I choose to place my trust.
These changes will irrevocably change us as we move forward.
Because as the Ringo Kid (John Wayne) said in Stagecoach, there are some things you just can’t run away from. ๐

Sometimes you just need to slow down and breathe in the moment. It has been a crazy couple of weeks and with everything going on around the publication of my memoir. The other evening I was blessed to go out to the barn with my wife and daughter. It was a quiet evening just the three of us and the horses, those are the times and the memories I cherish.
As we approach the upcoming release of my memoir > ๐พ๐ค๐ฌ๐๐ค๐ฎ๐จ ๐ผ๐ง๐ ๐๐ค๐ฉ ๐๐ช๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ค๐จ๐๐ ๐ฉ๐ค ๐พ๐ง๐ฎ as a precursor I encourage you to take a listen to the conversation with Ronit Plank as a guest on her podcast ๐๐ป๐ฑ ๐ง๐ต๐ฒ๐ป ๐๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐๐๐ต๐ถ๐ป๐ด ๐๐ต๐ฎ๐ป๐ด๐ฒ๐ฑ last January talking about life, death, grief and healing.

So excited, I received the first physical copies of my memoir and upcoming book today! 
Thank you Jesus, and my family, and friends for all the love and support, and my publisher Christian Faith Publishing. The story of my journey carrying grief and healing will be soon be available. I pray it blesses and helps others dealing with the pain of loss.

Watch for a soon to be announced release date and opportunities to be part of the launch team!! This is how my story begins.

I really like this black and white alternative image of the cover to my #UpcomingBook! I still like the colored version best but this definitely gives it an interesting feel. What do you think?

My #memoir will soon be published by Christian Faith Publishing and hopefully will be available within the next month or so.
“๐๐ฉ๐ช๐ด ๐ช๐ด ๐ฎ๐บ ๐ด๐ต๐ฐ๐ณ๐บ, ๐ฎ๐บ ๐ณ๐ฆ๐ข๐ญ๐ช๐ต๐บ, ๐ข๐ฏ๐ฅ ๐ฎ๐บ ๐ญ๐ช๐ง๐ฆ…”
I share my personal journey of carrying grief and healing, while navigating my own personal and the societal expectations surrounding grief that are often placed upon men.
I can’t wait for both men and the women who love their men in their lives, to read it as it is ultimately a story of hope and healing. 
I also believe my story will speak to some ladies out there as well.

After over three years of writing, rewriting, editing and rewriting again, I signed with Christian Faith Publishing last fall to publish my memoir. After further rounds of edits, proofreading, typesetting, interior page design and finally the cover design you see above. My book is almost a reality. I am waiting, somewhat patiently and anxiously for the first print copies of my book to arrive for review. I should be receiving them in the next couple of weeks and then it is onto publishing with a press release, video trailer and social media package. It is hard to believe the reality of it all.
So tell me what you think of the cover? And please share the tweet below, thanks!
