In the thick of modern life, we are tempted to forget what we are doing and why we are doing it. We are busy socializing, building careers, and looking for fun—but what’s it all for? The ancient concept of “vocation” has recently gained popularity as we return to questions about the meaning of life. Almost all religions include the idea that divine purposes should guide our lives; Christianity has particularly accented it. The God who called Israel and sent Jesus has something in mind for us. God’s call challenges us, but also opens us to the best sort of life imaginable. In Living Vocationally, the challenge and the joy of the called life is thoroughly explored. Part one considers the benefits of living vocationally, biblical traditions of call, and subsequent Christian understandings. Part two examines why vocation pertains not only to careers, but indeed touches every dimension of our lives and encompasses our full journey through life. Because every person’s life includes many callings, some very difficult, part three considers the virtues we need to live the called life well. Living Vocationally demonstrates why to have found a calling is to have found a good way to live.

The Power to Navigate Life is your opportunity to experience a fulfilling life by developing sound health and emotional well-being from the very first page. You will see there is more to life than paying bills, being unhappy, always sick, or being in a relationship that does not serve you. The Power to Navigate Life is arguably the most complete and powerful teachings on the mastering of life. The book is based on the successful personal development and self-transformation program which is like no other, with three key principles: 1. Health & Well-being 2. Personal Growth 3. Self-Awareness. The book includes working diagrams in colour (Map of Life), offering a strategic blueprint that will support you in your quest for a better life. The questionnaire at the back of the book will help you identify issues within your life; issues that you probably were not aware you had. Are you tired of being disconnected from your mind and body? Do you wish you could enjoy better health? Mentally, emotionally, and physically? Do you wish you could better understand the reason for your health issues? The number one problem affecting people nowadays is a preoccupation with their thoughts, which causes mental, emotional, and physical problems. My book will help you: * Better understand the function between your mind and body to achieve mental, emotional and physical wellbeing. * Empower you to realise your strengths, talents and genius. * Draw awareness to your personal power, which lives in us all. * Identify and detach from self-imposed limitations; the inner critic and self-defeating behaviours holding you back from living well. * Draw awareness on the power of infinite possibilities and how to reveal your highest potential. * Realise there are no mistakes in life; simply the exchange of energy from one form to another. * Identify areas of your life that are disempowering, so you can take decisive action to move forward.

"The World needs Chad Prather more than ever. He's a throwback to a saner and more fun-loving America. His rants are OUR rants." — Charlie Kirk Chad Prather — “a modern-day Will Rogers” — is just your friendly neighborhood cowboy philosopher, gazing into the sweet tea leaves at the bottom of his cowboy hat, pondering a most fundamental question: “Am I crazy? Or is the world crazy…?” Chad finds life amusing, baffling, sometimes heartwarming, and downright interesting, and wants to share personal stories and witty observations on the hasty growth of insanity within the folds of society, and inspire critical thinking about the state of our modern culture. In this series of humorous essays — reminiscent of the rants he is famous for doing from his truck in Texas — Chad takes on all the problems he has with the modern age, and also talks about some of the problems that we have with each other. Problems with kids, problems with spouses, problems with our bosses at work, and of course problems with all those other jackwagons we work with. What are some of the basic things you need to know if you’re going to survive marriage and parenthood? Whatever happened to decency, hard work, and a sharing of the basic values that made us great in the first place? When did it become unfashionable to believe in God, to go to church on Sunday, or to send our “thoughts and prayers” toward those having a difficult time? When did it become child abuse to spank your kids, instead of child abuse to avoid it? Why do we have such visceral reactions to politics when — by and large — we know so little about how it actually works? When is social media going to finally stop messing around and just bring the full-on possession? And why is it that, as we march further and further along the road of progress — growing our collective knowledge and technological means of dealing with life along the way — we seem to be regressing socially at an equally break-neck pace? AM I CRAZY?: An Unapologetic Patriot Takes on the Insanity of Today’s Woke World explores human misbehavior and stupidity in all its naked splendor with laugh-out-loud humor.
