Include your first name and city if you’d like your message possibly included in a future episode.
Short voice memos are welcome (and preferred).
Books: I write stories about duty, leadership, and moral responsibility — often under extreme pressure. I’ve written twelve fast-paced thrillers, with more than 70,000 copies sold. They’re available on Amazon.
Let’s end with an important reminder about faith
As you know, if you want true peace, I believe you should look to God and the Bible for that — not a country, not a party, and certainly not an earthly leader, such as our President or the leader of whatever political party you prefer.
Want to know where to start with reading the Bible?
* Check out my Bible resource page here.
By the way, if you’re a vet dealing with depression, PTSD, or thoughts of suicide, please listen to this.
Want more faith content?
I also have a podcast that focuses solely on faith called The Search for God.
Here are a few episodes you don’t want to miss:
* For the vets out there... Dealing with paranoia, PTSD, and the emotional scars you earned from serving.
* How it all started: my painful origin story.
* I stand on the shoulders of a giant — my eulogy to my Dad.
Love my moderate, optimistic view of politics and want to know more about how I see things?
Go here: Thoughts from a Southern Gentleman.
And with that, thanks for joining us this week.
All posts are free, so feel free to share.
To God be the Glory,
Stan R. Mitchell
