W. Paul Young, author of “The Shack” joined us on The StoryField.

We had a deeply honest conversation with Paul touching some major parts of his story:

  • growing up as a missionary kid.
  • surviving abuse and generational wounds.
  • the first time he told the truth after getting caught in an affair.
  • the long journey into healing, trust and presence. 

Join us for this amazing interview with Paul Young where we explored some other ideas that could change your life -

Expectations: why releasing expectations frees relationships.

Trusting God: how living in the moment is the heart of real trust and how to move from control to healthy trust.

Grace: for the moment.

Responsibility: is not what has been taught; it’s really the “ability to respond”.

And, of course we learned the surprising origin of The Shack.

Why listen: This episode is for anyone wrestling with shame, control, or the fear-driven future-trip. Paul’s hard-won wisdom invites a life of present-tense trust, radical honesty, and deeper, safer relationships.

Kingdom of Fraud

Kingdom of Fraud

It’s the unlikeliest of criminal partnerships: a devout polygamist from an insular Utah sect joining forces with a shadowy Armenian tycoon from LA. The result - a billion dollar fraud conspiracy. In Kingdom of Fraud, investigative reporter Michele McPhee traces the origins of the extraordinary alliance between Jacob Kingston and Levon Termendzhyan. Together, the two men trigger the largest tax investigation in American history and weave around themselves a web of dirty cops, influential political relationships and transnational money laundering. All this is set against the backdrop of Jacob Kingston’s clan – The Order. A powerful and secretive polygamist organization in Salt Lake City. To whom Jacob is desperate to prove his worth.
