Real stories of resilience told by real people demonstrate how spirituality makes a difference when it comes to a person's ability to bounce back after trauma or stress. Transformation guru and author Daniel D. Maurer (Sobriety: A Graphic Novel, Faraway: A Suburban Boy's Story as a Victim of Sex Trafficking, and Papa Luther) shares--in each person's own words--that spiritual beliefs are more than fluffy, "nice things" to believe in. Instead, spiritual assets become the transforming spark that undergirds a resilient response in many life situations, even yours.
Daniel D. Maurer is an award-winning Hazelden author and nationally-recognized public speaker on addiction and recovery, as well as an online journalist documenting others' accounts of personal change. He lives with his family in Saint Paul, Minnesota. Please visit his website at changeisreal.com.
