Ride with me on my rambling motorcycle. Fly with me as I soar on hang-gliders high above mountains from New England to the Cumberland Plateau, and feel the wind in my sails on inland lakes from Lake Erie to the Northern Gulf Coast. Witness this journey through our American landscape and gain a deeper understanding of forces driving our personal and national destinies.

The carefree days of youth have flown. We cannot ignore the reality of controversial issues like civil rights, justice, Vietnam, and “free love”. Timeless values are challenged more today than yesterday. Our country is in a continuous adolescent, defiant, deceitful, morally bankrupt decline. But there is hope!

We are in a war, not with lead bullets, but one of anger, accusation, antagonism, threats, shame and blame. We do not have peace and unity in our country like we had just a few decades ago. How do we meet these challenges?

Sooner or later, we all must come to a revelation that we cannot continue in the way we have been going. This truth is what each man and woman must understand or ultimately forfeit everything. As much as each of us would like to think that “I am the master of my fate and the captain of my soul,” we are not. If we continue to make up our own rules, we face certain ruin when we could otherwise gain redemption and regeneration. Several experiences have led me to this conclusion.

This memoir depicts my journey from childhood to maturity in our country’s North and South, a personal discovery of cultural tensions deepened by family ties, research, and exploration. Reflections on war play a large part, from the Civil War to WWII and Vietnam. It is a story about family, faith, flying, fighting, and staying afloat. It is a tale of hopes and dreams, uncertain heights, surprise wrecks, life and death, heart-wrenching stresses, amazing discoveries, popular and unpopular values, mixed with grace and mercy. Read about the revival in my own life, marriage, and family and discover how these findings apply as well to the church, our country and beyond.

Jesus not only taught His disciples to pray that the Kingdom of God would come and the Father’s will be done on earth as it is in heaven, He commissioned them to do so. We are similarly commissioned. Releasing The Blueprint Of Heaven helps leaders in the Body of Christ to fulfill this commission. It sets forth a repeatable pattern for making, equipping, and releasing disciples who are apostolic, i.e., who expand the culture of the Kingdom into their respective spheres of influence.

The initial focus of the guide is to be clear about its definition of apostolic. This clarity helps leaders to understand the changes in mindset and the paradigm shifts that help us to act even more apostollically.

The intent of this guide is not to help leaders assemble nameless individuals into a generic people who feel a sense of obligation to do His will. The intent of this guide is to help leaders release the blueprint of heaven into the earth by nurturing and growing disciples who embrace the commission to expand the Kingdom of God in their respective spheres of influence. $2.99 on Kindle.

Inside this book you will learn:

An elite group asserts dominance and control of every aspect of your life, including your afterlife. Individual freedoms are sacrificed for the so-called greater good. A New World Order crushes dissidents, and this select group has the power to shape the future of humanity.

What if all conspiracy theories you have heard for decades were not only true, but were all connected? What if you were told the creation of this New World Order required the participation, knowingly or not, of every former U.S. President and World Leader since 1900?

What if proof existed that all secret societies like the Illuminati, Freemasons, and Skull and Bones, were used by Satan and his Antichrist?

Who is this Antichrist? When will he appear? Where will he come from? Even those who do not know Jesus Christ, know of the Antichrist.

As the worlds nuclear superpowers sail their armadas to the Middle East, is the stage set for WW3? Is this where we will see the revealing of the Antichrist?

There will come a descendant of Mohammad who will be loved by the entire world. Even the elect will view him as a peaceful, charismatic world leader, initially. As he arrives on a white horse, the Suni Muslims will know him as the Muslim Christ. The Shiite Muslims will know him as the Mahdi.

Christians know him as the Antichrist.
Thanks to the World Currency, he will reign over the New World Order, and rule the World Religion from Jerusalem!

Just like water seeks its own level, so does everything else, including idiots. I was one of those at that point in my life.

When I Stop Fighting is an eye-opening, honest, unapologetic take on life. Its about overcoming obstacles, overcoming addictions, and taking risks.

Sometimes we find ourselves in a place in life where we dont want to be. For me, there is no more glamorous way to explain it than my head was in my ass.

Im a regular guy with a regular upbringing. Im not a Navy Seal, PhD, or retired politician. I came from a disciplined, blue-collar, mid-western household where our needs were met, but not many of our wants. There was no back-up plan. I wasnt getting an inheritance.

I was not living anything close to a productive, happy, fulfilling life. I was digging myself deeper into the quagmire of dysfunction, addiction to drugs and alcohol, hiding, fears, and dishonesty. Especially, dishonesty with myself. A self-imposed prison. I was moving ever closer to an end that would have been devastating.

A moment of honesty and clarity shone a flicker of hope and opened my eyes to the potential for a different way of approaching this gift we call life.

I started to become aware of what we all crave at one time or another. I wanted to be happy; I wanted peace and contentment; I wanted to be financially secure; I wanted to be free from my fears; I didnt want to feel insecure and exposed; I wanted a different life.

As When I Stop Fighting explains: I can be a victim of myself or a product of the work I do to become a better version of myself.

Trying and failing on many occasions does not mean we should quit. It means figure it out. It means try again. It means acquire the humility to admit you dont know. This is a journey about doing just that.

Having now been completely sober almost four decades, Ive uncovered, committed to, and worked very hard on a way of life that keeps on giving, so that I can give to others.

Look to principles for guidance. Rinse and repeat ad infinitum. If we dont do that, we risk being tossed about by the waves of life, ad infinitum.

When I Stop Fighting illustrates how every single one of us can stop for a few moments, take a pause, evaluate ourselves, and determine what we want to get out of our time here. A move toward a fulfilling, gratifying, and rewarding place is available for all of us, no matter where we start.

This is a must read if you or someone you know is struggling, stuck, scared, unsure, or in need of a brand-new way of perceiving themselves, their world, and this journey we call life.

God may or may not have been calling me for a purpose. Im not in charge of what God decides to do, nor would I pretend I might know. Im pretty sure though, he was hoping Id get my head out of my ass, so I can help others do the same. $0.99 on Kindle.

In his groundbreaking book, The Politically Homeless Christian, Aaron Schafer explores what the Bible says about how we are called to engage with the world politically, what we are instructed to look for in leaders, and how we can bring the love of God to a broken and fallen world through the way we approach politics.

How can Christians live out God’s greatest two commandments through our approach to politics?

What type of political discourse could bring people to Jesus?

How do we balance the person we are voting for and the platform they represent?

What issues did Jesus spend the vast majority of his time teaching on?

How can we base our political beliefs on a foundation of grace and love?

As followers of Jesus, we were never meant to find our home in a single political party. Our identity should be rooted firmly in Christ alone.

We should be politically homeless. $0.99 on Kindle.
