Before Ron ever knew what safety felt like, he learned how to survive.
I AM NOT BREAKING is not just a memoir — it is a testimony carved from childhood trauma, violence, faith, silence, military service, spiritual leadership, and the hidden cost of carrying strength for decades.
This is not a story about falling apart.
It is about what survival demands of a soul — and what it takes to reclaim a life buried beneath resilience.
We are publishing I AM NOT BREAKING through WestBow Press, an imprint of Zondervan and Thomas Nelson. This partnership ensures the book is professionally edited, beautifully designed, and widely distributed with excellence and integrity. But bringing a story like this to life requires significant investment.
Funds raised will help cover:
Professional publishing and production
Editorial refinement and design
Printing and national distribution
Launch and outreach to reach those who need this message most
This book is for the ones who had to grow up too soon.
For those who mastered silence to survive.
For anyone carrying trauma while still daring to believe there is purpose beyond the pain.
If you believe stories can heal…
If you believe truth still matters…
If you believe survival should not be the final chapter…
Your support helps place this message into the hands of those still fighting to believe they are not breaking.
Thank you for standing with us.
