If church overstimulates you, if “quiet time” feels like torture, and if your prayers arrive in tangents, you are not broken—you’re neurodivergent. And your way of worship can be just as holy. Neurodivergent Spirituality: When Traditional Worship Doesn’t Work for Your Brain tears down the myth of the “perfect worshipper” and replaces it with a biblical, practical vision of faith that fits real bodies and real brains.

She opens her green notebook and begins THE INVESTIGATION—DAY ONE.

When nine-year-old Pip Warren is sent to spend the summer at his grandmother's farm, he expects eight weeks of nothing.

Jax hates stools. He hates counters that are chest-high. But mostly, he hates not getting paid. Captain Jax is a pilot with a Napoleon complex and a corvette held together by duct tape and lizard spit. He’s five-foot-six of pure spite in a galaxy built for giants. When a slime-mold broker offers him a retirement-level payday to transport a "biological sample" to the edge of the Drift, Jax doesn’t ask questions. He just wants the credits.

Jesus, Don’t Let Me Cuss in Church is a blunt, funny, and deeply pastoral field guide for believers who keep screwing up and still keep showing up.

But when a flaming prophet crashes into his field screaming about world-ending darkness, Kevin is thrust into a quest he never wanted—with a magical talking sword named Wendy (who really wants to cuddle), a rage-prone princess with trust issues, a washed-up alcoholic knight, and a goblin going through a motivational cult phase. Together, this chaotic band of misfits is Eldoria’s last hope. Probably. Maybe. Okay, not really—but the prophecy insists.
