  I have created a memoir based narrative road map so that other young women can enjoy their feminity and gain a sense of inner strength while avoiding some of the painful roadblocks, quicksand, and dead ends that many falsely believe are a fact of life. I worked diligently to educate and rebuild myself and I have sifted through the years of workshops, manuscripts, therapists and outlets to highlight the few tools that I find to be the most efficient. 
  In Five Gallons to Empty I share with honesty and vulnerability, my journey from despair and pain to strength and inner fortitude. It is my deepest desire to inspire other young women and to help them avoid the painful, unnecessary, and avoidable trials to which so many fall victim. It primarily approaches the subjects of sex, drugs and confidence. 
  I have invested a tremendous amount of time, money, and emotion into this book. But in the end, it is not about me; it is about serving as a guide to young women. I believe they need one. I believe I am one. If you have taken note lately of their current role models, or if you have a daughter, you may agree that they are in dire need of a stronger voice. I am excited to see this audiobook release and to passionately market it so that young women everywhere can learn from my mistakes and live comfortably, powerfully, and productively.

  This is small copy of  Introduction of the book: Welcome to the remarkable journey through the life and legacy of one of history's most influential figures, Martin Luther—the Father of Protestantism. In the pages that follow, we will embark on a voyage into the world of a man whose actions and ideas reshaped the course of Christianity and the Western world. As we delve into the life of Martin Luther, you'll discover a man whose story is both inspiring and thought-provoking. Born on November 10, 1483, in Eisleben, Germany, Martin Luther's early years were marked by the tumultuous times of the Renaissance and the late medieval period. Little did the world know that this humble son of a miner would go on to challenge the religious and political authorities of his time, setting in motion a chain of events that would forever alter the religious landscape. 
  Luther's journey takes us through the hallowed halls of the University of Erfurt, where he began his education and laid the groundwork for his future endeavors. It was here that his intellectual curiosity and passion for theology began to flourish. But it was a fateful event during a thunderstorm in 1505 that changed the course of Luther's life. Seeking divine protection during a lightning storm, he vowed to become a monk if spared. Keeping true to his word, Luther entered the Augustinian monastery in Erfurt and embarked on a life of devotion and contemplation.

  Understanding the Hillbilly...

  Flannery O’Connor is one of the greatest writers of the twentieth century. Her novels and short stories—shockingly violent, absurdly comic, spiritually potent—continue to entertain, beguile, and transform readers of all backgrounds to this day.  For many encountering them for the first time, O’Connor’s stories of backwoods prophets and outcasts feel strangely nihilistic and dark. Others familiar with her letters and essays appreciate the deep Catholic understanding of sin and grace that animates them. In this new book, Fr. Damian Ference proposes a more precise lens for decoding Flannery O’Connor’s narrative art, one that originates in O’Connor’s own words about herself: Hillbilly Thomism. The author examines the various ways in which St. Thomas Aquinas and the philosophical tradition of Thomism shaped not only O’Connor’s view of reality but also the stories she told to help us see and know it.    Featuring an impressive array of biographical and literary evidence and extended analysis of her short stories “The River,” “Parker’s Back,” and “The Displaced Person,” Understanding the Hillbilly Thomist is an important look at the intersection of medieval philosophy and modern fiction in one of the most treasured artists of the American South.
