Everything changed when God met her in the most unexpected way the night before she planned to end her life. What followed was a journey of rescue and restoration that included a therapeutic Ibogaine experience that God used as a catalyst for profound healing. Wendi writes for those who feel unseen in their suffering and for Christians who are afraid to speak honestly about their pain. Her work carries a steady message of compassion and courage, reminding readers that God still heals and still meets His children in places they never expected. She is the author of Journey to the Father’s Heart and The Christian’s Guide to Psychedelics, and she is the creator of The 22:2 Journey, a Christ centered retreat model designed for emotional and spiritual renewal.    See omnystudio.com/listener [https://omnystudio.com/listener] for privacy information.

We’re dedicated to promoting a culture of community and strive to offer young athletes the opportunity to build lasting relationships, develop essential social skills, and become part of a supportive community that they may not find elsewhere. Being part of our team means playing together and adopting a non-selfish approach to the game. We’re all about the European style of basketball, characterized by disciplined defense and structured offenses that emphasize ball movement and team play. In the spirit of our basketball style, our defense employs a man-to-man strategy, pairing every defensive player with an offensive counterpart to guard. We center our practices around adaptability in the game, where players learn to react and adapt to specific game situations, thereby becoming skilled team members.

Are you confused about what to do? Do you want to take your life back in spite of pain? There are about 1.5 billion people worldwide living with chronic pain. Pain is not picky. There are no boundaries. Pain affects men, women, and children, and is not necessarily age-related. One can develop pain from accidents, illnesses, traumas, and other events. So how does one live with pain? Vita Oyler has been living with a painful condition known as RSD for over thirty-five years. Besides the RSD, she has developed other painful conditions such as as fibromyalgia, osteoporosis, and other conditions.. She has learned to focus on goals, family, hobbies, laughter, animals, alternatives, and other strategies which have led her to living a happy and good quality of life. Vita wrote this book to help others that either suffer chronic pain or have family members or friends that do. Vita intends readers to gain some understanding of how pain interacts with daily life and how to find ways to live with pain that actually work for her. She explains how she has lived her life to her fullest in spite of pain. See omnystudio.com/listener [https://omnystudio.com/listener] for privacy information.
