"I can't imagine a better book for times of uncertainty. Adversity is everywhere. It's time we embraced it, overcame it, and become even more of the Difference Makers we were designed to be. Strap in. Get ready. And read this book." - Paul Casale, Licensed Mental Health Counselor
You've been lied to. It's time to embrace the truth.
You’ve been hit and wounded. Life hasn’t turned out to be what you expected, wanted, or hoped for. No one seems to care. You feel alone and isolated.
Something is wrong. You can sense it. Your heart says, “There’s got to be more.”
Yes, there is.
It’s time to turn things around. It’s time to expose the lies you’ve been fed about yourself and embrace the truth.
What’s the truth?
You’re a Difference Maker. And it’s time to start living that way.
For more than 30 years, multiple award-winning author and speaker Gary Roe has been helping teens and adults heal from past wounds, discover who they are, and live with passion and purpose. With more than a dozen books and 600 articles in print, he has become a trusted, inspirational voice to thousands of wounded hearts.
“Life is about overcoming,” Gary frequently says. Join him on the Difference Maker journey. You’ll be glad you did.
In Difference Maker, you’ll discover…
- The incredible power lies have had over you and your heart.
- What the common lies are out there, and how they are affecting you.
- How to expose the lies you’ve been fed, one by one.
- The truth about yourself and those around you.
- How to embrace the truth and begin to think and live differently.
As you choose to think differently and begin to heal and grow, you’ll also learn…
- How to conquer obstacles like fear, anxiety, anger, depression, self-harming behavior, and suicidal thoughts.
- Why you’re here and what your mission is.
- How to avoid thoughts, behavior, and habits that threaten your wellbeing and will scuttle your mission.
- How to embrace healthy, mission-building thoughts, behavior, and habits that will propel you forward.
- How to live with more purpose and passion than you dreamed possible.
No matter what has happened to you or around you, you can heal and grow. You can overcome adversity and turn pain into purpose, every day. You can transform losses into gains. Difference Maker can show you how.
You are a Difference Maker. The world needs you. Accept the challenge. Let the Difference Maker adventure begin.
