We live in a world that celebrates pride and worldly awards. Just do this and that and you'll achieve the world's success. Money is the measure of all things — the more you have, the more you are celebrated by society. People spend their whole lives chasing the world's conquests and dreams. What another man or woman has, I too have to have. It's an endless cycle that the Bible calls chasing the wind.

In a world that celebrates self promotion, ambition, and the relentless pursuit of recognition, humility has quietly slipped into extinction. We chase platforms instead of purpose, applause instead of authenticity, and forget that true greatness begins not in rising higher, but in bowing lower.

“I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made.”—Psalm 139:14. Follow a young boy’s tender journey of discovery as he learns an extraordinary truth: he is a masterpiece of God’s love. Through everyday adventures, quiet moments of wonder, and the gentle guidance of those who care for him, he begins to see himself the way God sees him—cherished, chosen, and wonderfully made. As he explores the world around him, he uncovers reminders of God’s creativity in every sunrise, every tree, every smile.

A Table for One is a tender, unflinching memoir of love, loss, and the quiet courage it takes to keep living when the world you built is suddenly gone. Inspired by a devotional written by a pastor who lost his wife after forty years of marriage, Michael C. Herbert steps into that sacred story with both pastoral insight and imaginative empathy. After decades of standing beside grieving families, Herbert believed he understood sorrow—until he found himself setting the table out of habit and realizing there was no one left to sit across from him.

Seven-year-old Emma has always felt a little different. She notices things others overlook, feels deeply, dreams boldly, and asks big questions about who she is and why she matters. But when a gentle conversation with her mom leads her to the words of Scripture, Emma begins a beautiful journey of understanding: she is fearfully and wonderfully made—crafted with purpose, loved without limits, and created in the very image of God.

What if the miracle isn't the vanishing of a wound, but the unwavering courage to carry on life with the grace needed to go through life? What if you've tried everything to have your prayers answered, yet the answer never comes? What if you've given up believing that God is real and bravely live as if this were your lot in life? Michael explores with brutal honesty how to live a meaningful life amid pain and suffering, how to carry on even when there is no resolution.

We live in a world where the ordinary has become the status quo. For many, simply getting by from day to day feels like enough—and nothing more. We sit at home, scrolling through social media or watching TV screens filled with people doing the miraculous, accomplishing what seems impossible. For a moment, we whisper, "I wish I could do that." But then we stop. And we don't.

Michael C. Herbert knows that story firsthand. Once trapped in the chains of drugs, alcohol, and crushing depression, Michael walked through darkness most people never see—and lived to tell the truth about it. In this raw and unfiltered audiobook, he reveals how the power of God didn’t just help him survive… it transformed him completely. Speaking as a minister of the Gospel and a man who has been to the edge and back, Michael shares the brutal honesty of his battles and the miraculous freedom he found through Christ. His journey is not polished. It’s not sanitized. It’s real.

No matter how dark the situation may seem, Jesus is the one who can restore and heal, bringing life and joy to those who are in need. He is the master of broken lives and the one who restores that which was taken. In this book, you’ll find God is the same yesterday, today, and forever. The people written of in the chapters were real people facing life-threatening circumstances. What he was able to accomplish in the broken lives of people in the bible he is still able to do today.

Saul knew the Law with precision. He trained under the best teachers, walked the straightest lines, and carried scripture like breath in his lungs. His mind was formed around tradition. His identity was sealed by discipline. His confidence came from believing he was right with God and from doing everything required to prove it.
