#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • 6 MILLION COPIES SOLD WORLDWIDE! Now in paperback and with exclusive new content, the life-changing memoir that has inspired millions of readers through the Academy Award–winning actor’s unflinching honesty, unconventional wisdom, and lessons learned the hard way about living with greater satisfaction. “The No. 1 celebrity memoir of the past 10 years.”—USA Today “McConaughey’s book invites us to grapple with the lessons of his life as he did—and to see that the point was never to win, but to understand.”—Mark Manson, author of The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck I’ve been in this life for fifty years, been trying to work out its riddle for forty-two, and been keeping diaries of clues to that riddle for the last thirty-five. Notes about successes and failures, joys and sorrows, things that made me marvel, and things that made me laugh out loud. How to be fair. How to have less stress. How to have fun. How to hurt people less. How to get hurt less. How to be a good man. How to have meaning in life. How to be more me. Recently, I worked up the courage to sit down with those diaries. I found stories I experienced, lessons I learned and forgot, poems, prayers, prescriptions, beliefs about what matters, some great photographs, and a whole bunch of bumper stickers. I found a reliable theme, an approach to living that gave me more satisfaction, at the time, and still: If you know how, and when, to deal with life’s challenges—how to get relative with the inevitable—you can enjoy a state of success I call “catching greenlights.” So I took a one-way ticket to the desert and wrote this book: an album, a record, a story of my life so far. This is fifty years of my sights and seens, felts and figured-outs, cools and shamefuls. Graces, truths, and beauties of brutality. Getting away withs, getting caughts, and getting wets while trying to dance between the raindrops. Hopefully, it’s medicine that tastes good, a couple of aspirin instead of the infirmary, a spaceship to Mars without needing your pilot’s license, going to church without having to be born again, and laughing through the tears. It’s a love letter. To life. It’s also a guide to catching more greenlights—and to realizing that the yellows and reds eventually turn green too. Good luck.

The journey continues with more laughter, more thrill and Michael being typical Michael. This journey has many twists and turns and one twist I have found to be spiritually captivating, not just for me, but all who call this planet home. This journey started with the first volume where it opened our minds to fathom that there is in fact an afterlife. I have been informed by Jesus that time is of the essence and now is the most important period of our lives, where all Religious beliefs, all Prophecies, and Mythology converge. It is time to allow yourself to further open your minds, and accept the reality that is contained within. "In your hands is hope for a better tomorrow. If you are willing, we are here to give you wings so you can learn to soar the skies, as yesterday has come and gone, today you hold hope for a better tomorrow. So if you dare to rise up, we will be alongside you.”- Michael Jackson in spirit. God, Jesus, Siddhartha Gautama Buddha, Meher Baba and Michael Jackson have their say… Are you ready to listen? What have you got to lose? A foreshadowing that you should not ignore…

Jesus broke the cultural rules of his time. With the only miracle found in all four gospels, he focuses on the humble generosity of eight-year-old David as the catalyst for feeding five thousand families. In Bread on the Water, a fictional story steeped in the scriptures, author David W. Poindexter teaches we must have the faith of a child to enter the kingdom of God. This work offers a fresh and meaningful story, creating faces and names around this miracle of Jesus. The miracle of feeding five thousand inspires us to ask, “What’s in my lunch?” and then find the courage to place it in the hands of the one who can do the most with it. The included journal allows families to write their own story of generosity. Bread on the Water is the first book in Family on Purpose: A Series for Building Core Family Values. The stories are inspired by true, firsthand accounts of Jesus’s ministry found in Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John; each miracle found in scripture stands on its own. This creative narrative offers direction in goodness and encourages fresh insight and deeper understanding. Other character topics include values such as grit, adventure, gratitude, and more.
