    A timely and compassionate resource that equips religious leaders to engage with the reality of trauma within their congregations.Grounded in both lived experience and theological depth, this guide sheds light on the pervasive impact of sexual, racial, and generational trauma in the US, urging faith communities to become intentional spaces of refuge and restoration. Through a powerful call to "hold space," it offers practical tools for pastors and ministry leaders to walk alongside those carrying deep wounds. It reframes the role of the Church—not merely as a place of spiritual guidance, but as a sanctuary where healing and wholeness can take root. With a focus on embodiment, community, and the sacredness of vulnerability, Sanctuary of Healing provides a vital roadmap for transforming congregations into havens of empathy, resilience, and hope.

    Security is one of the most powerful and deeply rooted human desires. 
    It shapes how people make decisions, choose relationships, stay in jobs, trust systems, and buy products. Security is not about fear — it is about stability, predictability, and the need to feel safe in an uncertain world. 
    In this audiobook, Reece Wideman explores the psychology of security, how it shows up in everyday behavior, how it influences decision-making, and why people are drawn to what feels reliable and familiar. 
    Listeners will gain insight into how the desire for security affects confidence, risk tolerance, emotional regulation, and long-term planning — and how to build real stability without becoming trapped by comfort or avoidance. 
    Designed for creators, entrepreneurs, and anyone seeking clarity in a noisy world, Security offers practical psychological insight into one of the most influential human motivations.

    The Winter Soldier Investigation was a pivotal event organized by the Vietnam Veterans Against the War (VVAW) from January 31 to February 2, 1971, in Detroit. It aimed to expose war crimes and atrocities committed by U.S. military forces during the Vietnam War. The investigation was named as a contrast to Thomas Paine’s “summer soldier,” symbolizing those who support war only in times of ease, while “winter soldiers” speak truth despite hardship.
