    What if the present cultural setback is really a divine setup for a spiritual comeback? 
     
     
     
    Ungodly forces have devastated American culture. The family of faith is feeling intimidated and fearful. Worse, many of us think that nothing can be done about it—that society will inevitably get worse. 
     
     
     
    Actor, producer, and conservative activist Kirk Cameron says this hopelessness is completely misplaced. God has given His faithful followers a birthright of courage. If we choose to live in this bravery, we will realign the nation with Christian values. 
     
     
     
    With biblical insights and true stories of individuals who acted bravely out of love for God and others, Born to Be Brave equips us to stop thinking our opponents are too big for us to overcome and start seeing our culture as something we are called to mold; recognize the Christian backstory of America and see how this gives us direction for the future; understand that politics needs the gospel, because real change requires heart transformation; hold on to our God-given compassion for others, even when we face backlash and opposition; and boldly engage friends, family, and the community with gospel truths that affect all of society.

    A funny, wise, and relatable exploration of how to stand firm amid the ups and downs of existence, from a renowned teacher and writer hailed as "the future of Buddhism" 
     
     
     
    In today's culture of intense polarization and constant change, how do we find the confidence to navigate life's challenges? Is now really the time for meditation, for looking inward? What do we do with mindfulness? Ethan Nichtern, described by vogue.com as "a supercool, deeply kind brainiac," and one of the leading meditation teachers of our time, tackles these questions head-on in Confidence. This provocative book takes contemporary considerations of power, identity, ethics, and confidence to new heights, offering listeners an essential guide to self-discovery. 
     
     
     
    Nichtern examines the Buddhist concept of the Eight Worldly Winds, the four paired opposites of praise and blame, pleasure and pain, fame and insignificance, and success and failure. By delving into these dichotomies, listeners gain invaluable insights into their relationships with others (including teachers, friends, leaders, the disgraced, and the adored) and themselves. With four transformative meditation exercises, this book empowers listeners to cultivate and access their innate confidence and wisdom.
