Not everything we do will succeed.  In fact, more often than not, we will experience what most call "failure" or "adversity."

Ben Lindsay of STAND has learned these lessons and is here to tell his story.   It would do all of us well to hear what he has to say.

It's never easy to believe in someone or something that, on occasion, you disagree with.  The natural tendency is to shy-away from conflict, from those uncomfortable moments.  But, as you'll hear in my conversation with Christopher Ruocchio, author of the incredible Sun Eater series, sometimes loyalty transcends disagreement.  In a time where disagreements are rampant, political, moral, ethical and otherwise, it behooves us to find our loyalties and rise above the chaos.
