Life is turbulent. On that, we can all agree. Disappointed dreams, broken relationships, identity crises, vocational hang-ups, wounds from the past--there are so many ways life can send us crashing up against the rocks. In this deeply personal book, Jonathan Martin draws from his own stories of failure and loss to find the love that can only be discovered on the bottom. How to Survive a Shipwreck is an invitation to trust the goodness of God and the resilience of your soul. Jonathan's clarion call is this: No matter how hard you've fallen, no matter how much you've been hurt, help is on the way--just when you need it most. With visionary artistry and pastoral wisdom, Jonathan Martin reveals what we'll need to make it through those uncharted waters, how we can use these defining experiences to live out of our depths, and why it will then become impossible to go back to the half-life we once lived.

Those enlightened few of us who are capable of seeing this threat in time must learn, study and arm ourselves against the coming storm. It's to educate yourself and prepare for what may be our species' most perilous days. Skeptical? This book contains the FACTS that will get you through the fake news, the deep disinformation, and the many machinations of The Duck, aimed at crippling our will to fight. Weapons, strategies, and critical information about who will stand with us and who will stand on the side of this feculent web footed menace... Don't risk being caught unprepared or you'll find yourself waking up to the flapping wings and the sound of those webbed feet slapping as they overwhelm and destroy us all!
