<p>Nothing could have prepared an ambitious group of college dropouts for what awaited them on the road to potential rock stardom. Suicide, depression, extreme poverty, injuries, broken down vans and nervous encounters with supermodels. This is the story of “Christian Hardcore” band, As Cities Burn. Aaron Lunsford, drummer, takes readers behind the scenes, sharing his unique, and sometimes harsh, perspective on what it was like to attempt to "make it" as a band in the early-to-mid 2000’s. Aaron’s comments on the ins and outs of the music business, as well as the moral pressures of the “Christian” music scene, are eye-opening. Backstage gives fans of any genre of music a chance to put themselves in the shoes of those who dare to dream, and often fall short in the end.</p>

<p>There's a stigma attached to mental illness and with the good Lord's help, Joey Svendsen is about to blow that stigma up. In a Christian-like way, of course. Pastor Joey Svendsen, co-host of the BadChristian podcast wrote Fundamentalist with one hope. To obliterate the reluctance people often have to speak transparently about mental illness. Joey recounts stories from his life with brutal, hilarious honesty. Stories of irrational thinking and depression so bizarre, you have to laugh or you'll cry. Add a huge dose of holier than thou churchy hand wringing, and Joey takes OCD to a whole new level. Feel free to laugh and shake your head at Joey's expense. It's entertainment after all. But his primary goal is to "bring the issue of mental illness into the plane of reality" and normalize crazy with a little comedy.</p>
