Issue 34: May we be Resilient — God Style!
Dear Resilient Warrior Friends, Never in my lifetime has Resilience God Style been more relevant.

Issue 33: Lost His Legs, Found His Soul
Fellow Resilient Warrior, Our last newsletter, entitled “Don’t Stuff It!” was devoted to mourning loss and grieving well.

We don’t develop “911 Friends” overnight — it takes time to develop these deep relationships of trust, confidence, and comfort; but it is essential to resilient living.
