Henry Bibby has been a winner his entire life. From three consecutive NCAA men's championships as the point guard for legendary Coach John Wooden's UCLA Bruins, to a contributor off the bench for Red Holzman's 1973 world championship New York Knicks, and winning a CBA title in 1989, while also leading the USC Trojans to the Elite Eight in 2001 as a head coach. However, the impetus for writing this book was not to list his myriad accomplishments in basketball that spans over a half century but to pay homage to the people who helped on his sojourn-family, coaches, teammates, and teachers. He hopes to enlighten the next generation of basketball coaches to avoid some of the pitfalls he experienced. With the coauthor, Douglas T. Branch, who came aboard on the recommendation of Hall of Fame National Basketball columnist Peter Vecsey, the pair conducted hours of interviews. Henry cultivated a tireless work ethic growing up on the family's modest farm in rural North Carolina and needed it, as he traversed the globe after his playing days. Coaching at basketball outposts abroad, such as Pico, Puerto Rico; Venezuela; Winnipeg; and most of the lower forty-eight, from Oklahoma City to Savannah, Georgia. He persevered partly for the love of the game and necessity. Finally, he had a modicum of security at USC for parts of nine seasons, then the WNBA's Los Angeles Sparks, and as an assistant coach for three NBA teams (Philadelphia, Memphis, and Detroit). His desire to still coach never wanes. Anyone who is a fan of the rich history of basketball will be interested to hear his thoughts on basketball, past and present, and the broaching of subjects from family to religion.

How learning to deal with unresolved emotions leads to true healing—and authentic emotional recovery from addiction. Just as one needs to hit bottom with drinking or using in order to begin recovery, eventually one will also hit an emotional “bottom” of fear, anger, and grief. And recovery can only start by first understanding how, when, and where those emotions took control. Barb Rogers challenges readers in recovery to investigate the unresolved grief and loss in their lives and navigate the impacts of those emotions—emotions that can lead back to using if not resolved. Recovery from addictions involves more than getting sober. It involves finding happiness, which can only happen if the emotional work is done as well. Negative emotions have the ability to weigh on us and influence both our decisions and the way we handle life’s challenges. If we continue to live with fear, anger, and grief, we aren’t really free from our addictions. The steps to recovery—authentic and complete recovery—involve healing from the deeper issues in our life.

“This is a story she needed to tell; and the rest of the country needs to listen.” — New York Times Book Review “This vital memoir will change how we look at the opioid crisis and how the media talks about it. A deeply moving and emotional read, STRUNG OUT challenges our preconceived ideas of what addiction looks like.” —Stephanie Land, New York Times bestselling author of Maid In this deeply personal and illuminating memoir about her fifteen-year struggle with heroin, Khar sheds profound light on the opioid crisis and gives a voice to the over two million people in America currently battling with this addiction. Growing up in LA, Erin Khar hid behind a picture-perfect childhood filled with excellent grades, a popular group of friends and horseback riding. After first experimenting with her grandmother’s expired painkillers, Khar started using heroin when she was thirteen. The drug allowed her to escape from pressures to be perfect and suppress all the heavy feelings she couldn’t understand. This fiercely honest memoir explores how heroin shaped every aspect of her life for the next fifteen years and details the various lies she told herself, and others, about her drug use. With enormous heart and wisdom, she shows how the shame and stigma surrounding addiction, which fuels denial and deceit, is so often what keeps addicts from getting help. There is no one path to recovery, and for Khar, it was in motherhood that she found the inner strength and self-forgiveness to quit heroin and fight for her life. Strung Out is a life-affirming story of resilience while also a gripping investigation into the psychology of addiction and why people turn to opioids in the first place.

*Includes the gruesome albeit heroic tales of the Early Christian Martyrs, and 20th century martyrdom. This book's meant to target the addict who's fallen so deep within the pits of hell they've ran out of options and require upmost assistance. (the omnipotent source). Yet, it surprisingly relates and opens the eyes of anyone merely suffering from stress or depression; particularly as a cause of our deceptive society we live amongst. This book's far more than a unique and relatable approach at using Christianity, as the author understands many who don't use this path aren't in need of turning in that direction. Thereupon, F&K ft. historic/modern sociology, etc. This book attracts non-believer's unlike anything else. Written by an addict involved in the deepest levels of the life-style for 20years, this book presents an unimaginable variety of sources and topics. The time has come to toss the N/A book straight into the trash. Ft.For the Non-Believers/If God's Not Real: Christian Philosophy vs. Positive Thinking

Through sharing the journey of her gap year (a year off from school between high school and college) experience in Senegal, Africa, Nicole depicts the value in taking time to go through a process of unboxing which enables us to break free of the invisible chains and limitations we often subconsciously subject ourselves to. “The Unboxing” exposes the subtle but powerful false beliefs that hold many young people captive today. In an age that has more content and published opinions than we could ever read in our lifetime, “The Unboxing” offers a clear, first-hand experience of this journey. As a PK (Pastor’s Kid), Nicole shares her struggles of developing a personal relationship with God. As a young black woman, she shares the journey of breaking free of the societal conditioning that tells her “I am not good enough”. As a teen just trying to figure herself out, she shares the journey of self-awareness that led her to live life boldly and passionately. Whether you grew up in church or have never been exposed to religion, this book will inspire you to look within yourself and come to terms with your own truths-- about yourself, life, and who you want to be. “The Unboxing” is about the journey of self-awareness necessary in order to begin living in our most authentic light. We don’t have to wait until we enter adulthood to begin taking control of our lives.
