In his fifth collection of love letters to Mother Earth, Stillman guides us through Colorado's rugged San Juan Mountains on skis during an epic winter of record-breaking snowfall.

Using winter as a backdrop to scrub our perspective clean, we examine the ever-widening gap between nature and civilization and ultimately how this will impact the future of humanity itself.

It isn't a sign of weakness or a shameful badge to stay and hold out hope for better days. I spent 10 years in a relationship with a man who was only willing to have a relationship with alcohol. I loved deep and without boundaries. I was passionate and committed to making it work. Not only did I stay with him, I defended him, I covered for him, I carried our burdens, alone. I believed that loving deep and without boundaries was essential in a marriage. My journey, while long and painful, was necessary for me to become the best version of myself. All of the episodes life had me star in during those 10 years gave me the backbone and strength to overcome, push forward, and thrive through all of life's hardships and celebrations. I hope somewhere along the way my story, my journey, my pain, can offer a beacon of light in the dark corners of others lives.

In this New Release, Almighty God speaks of things that are coming upon the United States because of the lack of integrity of our leaders. He speaks of tragedy, and faults those who have looked to the nation's leaders rather than looking to God as their source for livelihood. However, the fate of any nation depends upon the willingness of God's to turn back to Him, to humble themselves and pray. This requires a return to integrity, in a land that is besieged with massive corruption; a land that God calls "lawless," and a people "void of understanding." God says that "America continues to be under a strong delusion; self-deceived, walking in their own 'integrity' of their wicked hearts." Yet, we will soon learn that everything we thought to be true about the nation and its leadership was not true at all. God will not force us to do things His way. It is imperative that each of us recognize that God has a "standard" of integrity. If followed, one will find life and the blessing. If rejected, there will only be death and the curse. If ever there was a time to reconsider a message on integrity, the time is now.
