Earth life is a unique time chiseled out of eternity for you to become more like God. But how do you actually do that? How do you use eternal truths to up your game and propel yourself forward? How do you stop making the same mistakes over and over again and convert mortal turbulence from back-breaking to god-making? Drawing from gospel principles supported by examples across time, genre, and culture, author Susie McGann teaches how to expand your vision for what is possible, increase your impact on your current circumstances, and strengthen your relationship with Christ to take your results from good to great. In You on Purpose, learn how to Take life by the horns and let yourself be great unashamedly. Partner with God and draw upon His life-transforming powers to multiply your success. Overcome doubts, insecurities, and challenges that hold you back from truly rocking life. We were not divinely created as children of God to settle for less than what's possible. We each have a birthright, and it is for greatness. Stand up and seize it.

A step-by-step plan offers examples and exercises on how to determine and live by a set of values, experiment with failure as a formula for success, and take life beyond set limits.

A compassionate, shame-free guide for your darkest days “A one-of-a-kind book . . . to read for yourself or give to a struggling friend or loved one without the fear that depression and suicidal thoughts will be minimized, medicalized or over-spiritualized.”—Kay Warren, cofounder of Saddleback Church What happens when loving Jesus doesn’t cure you of depression, anxiety, or suicidal thoughts? You might be crushed by shame over your mental illness, only to be told by well-meaning Christians to “choose joy” and “pray more.” So you beg God to take away the pain, but nothing eases the ache inside. As darkness lingers and color drains from your world, you’re left wondering if God has abandoned you. You just want a way out. But there’s hope. In I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die, Sarah J. Robinson offers a healthy, practical, and shame-free guide for Christians struggling with mental illness. With unflinching honesty, Sarah shares her story of battling depression and fighting to stay alive despite toxic theology that made her afraid to seek help outside the church. Pairing her own story with scriptural insights, mental health research, and simple practices, Sarah helps you reconnect with the God who is present in our deepest anguish and discover that you are worth everything it takes to get better. Beautifully written and full of hard-won wisdom, I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die offers a path toward a rich, hope-filled life in Christ, even when healing doesn’t look like what you expect.

Driven by a desire to understand what it is that we are, where we come from and how we have become aware of it, I am always digging into ideas from all parts of our current history. We as humans are so much more than flesh and the challenge is to figure out what that truly means. Consciousness moves through atoms, building world upon world where thought can create landscapes and draw energy from a source well beyond the physical. Thinking is the greatest gift we have ever given ourselves and it is the way we will make the world a place of wonder to be lived in. We must expand upon what we have available and always keep love and care for others as our guides. In these pages you will find imagination, faith, and science mingling in an attempt to understand anything at all. Please enjoy the thoughts and ideas within.
