BOOKS
Reading expanded my horizons and allowed me to break free from limitations. From comic books that help me as a boy dream beyond cracked sidewalks, to fatherhood guides that helped me seek wisdom, to spiritual and leadership works that shaped my concept of surrender and identity.

The Surrendered Man
The Surrendered Man is a candid, unflinching journey from control to release-and from imitation to identity. Lynn Johnson traces how a boyhood built on comic-book ideals and self-protection hardened into an adult need to manage every feeling, room, and relationship-until the "mirror test" forced him to face the truth about who he'd become. From early memories in New Orleans to formative years of community leadership and mentoring, Lynn shows how surrender is not weakness but the deliberate choice to let go of what was never ours to carry.
