    The Chris Voss Show Podcast – The Prayer of Freedom: God’s breakthrough approach to prayer that frees you from many forms of chronic pain, chronic health issues, anxiety, … addictions and other life challenges by Beatty Carmichael

    The Prayer of Freedom: God's breakthrough approach to prayer that frees you from many forms of chronic pain, chronic health issues, anxiety, ... addictions and other life challenges by Beatty Carmichael Amazon.com Getradicalfaith.org Discover the Prayer of Freedom: A breakthrough approach to healing and restoration *** Watch our video overview at http://Overview.TPOFBook.com (copy/paste link to your browser)*** What if the solution to struggles in your life – be it addictions, chronic pain, anxiety, relationship conflicts, or more -- were within reach? In The Prayer of Freedom, you’ll uncover a groundbreaking approach to prayer that unlocks God’s power to heal, restore, and transform lives. Through real-life stories, compelling insights, and practical “hot-to” guidance, this book reveals how you can experience freedom from persistent life challenges. Take Rob and Lilly, for example. After ten years of constant fighting and five years of marriage counseling with no change, they felt hopeless. Then, they applied the Prayer of Freedom. Within 24 hours, their relationship was transformed—arguments ceased and peace filled their home for the first time in years. Today, they enjoy a peaceful, calm and joyful marriage, something they once thought impossible. But what is the secret behind this transformation? The Prayer of Freedom is rooted in spiritual laws found in the Bible—timeless principles that govern how God answers prayers. Author Beatty Carmichael shares his discovery of these laws and how applying them can bring miraculous results. Unlike conventional approaches to prayer, this method focuses on aligning with God’s will and addressing the spiritual roots of the problems we face. Imagine seeing long-standing issues—chronic pain, broken relationships, addiction, depression—vanish almost instantly. That’s what happened to Whitney, who had suffered from chronic pain for years. After praying using this approach, within one day her pain was gone, all the tension in her body disappeared, and a sense of peace and relaxation replaced years of discomfort. The book doesn’t just stop at individual stories. Carmichael provides evidence from his work with students in an addiction recovery center. Of those who completed the Prayer of Freedom, nearly 90% experienced total and complete freedom from their problems, including chronic pain, bipolar disorder, arthritis, depression, anxiety, addictions and more. Even for those who didn’t achieve complete freedom, the intensity of their issues dropped significantly. So, what makes this approach to prayer so powerful? Carmichael explains that it’s not about magical formulas or special gifts. Instead, it’s about understanding and applying spiritual laws that govern prayer. These laws, revealed in the Bible, show how repentance and righteousness open the door to answered prayer by God. The process is simple yet profound... and above all, proven effective! This book isn’t about theory—it’s a practical, “how-to” guide filled with step-by-step instructions and practical life applications. Whether you’re dealing with personal struggles or helping a loved one find freedom, The Prayer of Freedom teaches you the process to see real and lasting change. If you’re ready to experience the life-changing power of answered prayer, this book will show you how to turn spiritual laws into spiritual breakthroughs. If you are ready to unlock the freedom you’ve been searching for, then get The Prayer of Freedom today!

    The Chris Voss Show Podcast – Fritz Häber, The Complete Diary: 16 Months in an American POW Camp by Bernd Häber

    Fritz Häber, The Complete Diary: 16 Months in an American POW Camp by Bernd Häber Amazon.com Worldstrings.com 16monthsaspow.com Examining history through family archives frequently complicates our understanding of the past. This complexity is heightened when descendants encounter diverse forms of testimonial evidence from a bygone era—whether it be a photograph, an object, postcards, official documents, or a diary—and undertake the challenging endeavor of deciphering the meaning of these personal remnants within the broader context of historical events. This diary stands apart from the typical World War II narratives found in documentaries, textbooks, and retellings, often providing only the highlights and a broad overview. For readers seeking a genuinely fresh and intimate perspective on the physical war and psychological war that unfolds beneath the surface, this real-life account offers an insightful and comprehensive experience. This is the story of Fritz Häber, a young German father who grappled with the dual responsibilities to his family and country. His reflections provide personal insights that extend beyond him to encompass broader global perspectives. Forced to serve in a Nazi anti-aircraft unit near Munich during WW2, he later endured 16 months imprisoned in an American POW camp. Fritz Häber begins his diary with this dedication: “I dedicate these pages to my wife and my children of whom I hope are still alive and whom to find well when I return from captivity… May these lines serve my wife in the future as a compensation for the long time during which she knew nothing about my well-being, and for the children to serve as an example of how human destinies can get easily mixed up.” Stories such as his prompt an exploration of our family histories and their untold narratives. They illuminate themes of resilience and survival, morality and choice. Even when these tales harbor discomfort or controversy, they possess the power to enlighten us and offer valuable guidance for our present actions. His steadfast and unyielding belief in his survival gave him the faith that he would be reunited with his family one day. Having endured physical and emotional challenges, his story is a timeless, powerful source of inspiration 75 years later and will resonate with future generations. From the author: n this book, which is both a diary and a memoir, you will meet my grandfather, Fritz Häber. As a child, he was just my grandpa, a jovial, vigorous, warmhearted man, whom I would visit during the occasional holiday vacation. It was only later when contentious, life altering, family events were revealed to me that I realized Fritz had served in Hitler’s Wehrmacht during WWII, one of the most tumultuous and violent time periods of world history. I had so many questions. Although his part in this global drama can be considered minor, he extensively documented his experiences and shared his astute reflections on everything from human psychology to political philosophy. Like many history buffs, I have spent countless hours reading about high level diplomacy and watching documentaries that detail the technical and military aspects of war, but it was not until reading Fritz’s diary that I could fully imagine both the momentous decisions he made and the drudgery of being a reluctant soldier. Fritz, an antifascist, not only warns “human destinies can get easily mixed up” during war, but also reminds us to pay attention to forces that might interfere with our lives in unexpected ways. I am excited to now share his story with you. About the author Bernd, grandson of Fritz, was born in East Berlin - after the Berlin Wall was erected. He grew up in the German Democratic Republic under a Communist ruling government. Bernd attended the Technische Universität in Chemnitz in Saxony/Germany and graduated with a Master's Degree in Mechanical Engineering, Manufacturing Process Design and Computer Aided Manufacturing.
