About this listen

From powerlifting world records to pioneering Bible translation, from battling chronic illness to weathering financial storms and singleness struggles, my life has been an unlikely testament to God’s sustaining grace. In this raw, revelatory autobiography, I pull back the curtain on:

The Making of a Bible Translator – How I created the Analytical-Literal Translation despite health and financial obstacles
Strength Through Struggle – My journey to 15 powerlifting world records amid debilitating conditions
Faith Under Fire – Spiritual practices that sustained me through singleness, dating disasters, and isolation
Body as Temple – An overview of my diet and training regimen that keeps me productive against all odds
Politics & Principles – Why I wrote controversial books on fitness and culture

More than a memoir, this is a survival manual proving Paul’s words: “for whenever I am weak, then I am strong” (2Cor 12:10). Whether you’re wrestling with health limitations, vocational calling, or relational loneliness, my story shouts: God’s power thrives in broken vessels.
I have only accomplished so much in my life despite the struggles because, “the Lord stood by me and gave me strength” (2Tim 4:17a). To Him be all the glory!

In this book, I discuss my Christian, fitness, and politics books, websites, and newsletters, my unique translation of the Bible, my powerlifting achievements, my personal life (including dating and singleness struggles), my financial struggles, my many health problems, my spiritual practices, my exercise and dietary habits, and much more. Through all the obstacles and ups and downs, the Lord has always been there for me, standing beside me and enabling me to accomplish much despite all of my struggles.
