    Life Change Series: Why Honesty and Authenticity Are Non-Negotiable for True Change, Transformation, and Freedom - Ryan Fewell

    Are you honest with others? How about yourself?  Do you wonder why you can't change your life or find freedom?  Why you can't hear, see, or even sense God?   Maybe it's time for a giant dose of Truth.  It took a beer, a lake, and coming to end of himself to finally tell God how he really felt.   Ryan found out that honesty isn’t optional when it comes to change, transformation, freedom, or even speaking with God. He already sees through the masks we wear, the polished answers we give, and the half-truths we tell ourselves. He doesn’t want a performance; He wants the real you. Authenticity is the foundation of every meaningful connection—divine or human. When we speak from a place of truth, we create space for healing, trust, and transformation. Pretending might protect us in the short term, but it builds walls instead of bridges. If we can’t be real with God—the One who knows us completely—how can we expect to be real with anyone else? And if we’re not being real with others, are we truly being known at all? True connection starts where pretense ends. If you’re struggling like Ryan or I, it’s time to confront those difficult questions about faith and seek a deeper connection with God. The One who has the power to transform you, break your addictions, heal your mind, and guide you toward your true purpose is waiting.  “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” Grab my book here: Confession of a Christian Fraud: Dark Times, Shattered Lives, and God's Abundant Grace: Campese, Chad: 9798818801742: Amazon.com: Books Connect with Ryan here:  https://www.facebook.com/ryan.fewell ChaplainFewell@gmail.com  Connect with Chad here: Facebook Chad Campese | LinkedIn Instagram

    Life Change Series: Why Personal Relationships are ESSENTIAL to Your Comeback Story - Josh Howard

    What happens when your entire worldview gets turned upside down?  Will your faith hold steady? Can God still lead… still transform? Josh went from Pastor to Police Officer—two worlds that couldn’t be more different.  One was filled with prayer and peace. The other? Sirens, shattered lives, and scenes he’ll never unsee. He used to offer counsel from a couch. Now, he was face-to-face with the darkest parts of humanity. Anxiety. Panic attacks. Sleepless nights. His life was unraveling—and God felt silent. Wasn’t this the path God called him to? Why didn’t it feel like it anymore? But maybe…God was leading him—just not in the ways Josh expected. Maybe the voice of God was there all along—spoken through the close relationships he encountered every day.  Significant others, friends, colleagues.  God can use anyone....    If you’re struggling like Josh or I, it’s time to confront those difficult questions about faith and seek a deeper connection with God. The One who has the power to break your addictions, heal your mind, and guide you toward your true purpose is waiting.  “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.

    Life Change Series: The Deeper the Darkness, the Brighter the Light, and Life. How Tuning Out the Noise WILL Change Your Life - A.K. Dozanti

    Aimless.  Wandering. Angry at God, beaten down by life. Have you ever wondered if there was more, if there was a point, and if your life had meaning?   A.K. found out that sometimes you need to tune out the noise to truly hear and see what's important.  But, that's easier said than done, of course. Especially for police officers with quite a different view behind the scenes of life.   Though, it can be done.  Sometimes it just takes some extra help from places, people, and maybe even something supernatural that we tend not to expect.   If you’re struggling like A.K. or I, it’s time to confront those difficult questions about faith and seek a deeper connection with God. The One who has the power to break your addictions, heal your mind, and guide you toward your true purpose is waiting.  “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.

    Life Change Series: Do All Things Really Work Together For Good? God's Plan in Death, Destruction, and Addiction - Ward Jenkins

    Why is this happening? Does God truly work all things for good? All things? Even death, destruction, pain, and addiction? What about murder? Ward found himself working as a police officer in the heart of the L.A. riots, witnessing horrors he never thought he'd see, including the loss of his closest friend and partner. To numb the pain, he turned to a nightly ritual of a giant glass of rum, just enough to escape—until it was time to face the world again the next day. Where was God in all of this? Could He truly work it for good? Was He really in control? Ward’s answer: He is. If you’re like Ward or I, it’s time to answer those tough Christian questions and connect with the One who can break your addictions, heal your mental health, and lead you to your true purpose. “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.
