Everyday Courage Courage is the ability to do things that feel difficult, scary, or uncertain. It isn’t reserved for just a chosen few. Courage is a birthright. It’s inside all of us.

The greatest version of you. Discover your courage, and you will be capable of accomplishing and experiencing anything you dream about. Yes, even changing the world.

Scott Bolinder and Bruce Ryskamp caught the vision for this book from the very beginning. They arranged for a retreat on Lake Michigan, where we passed this vision on to other Zondervan staff members. Sandy Vander Zicht directed the editorial process and finetuned the manuscript into a book that is more graceful, more precise, and easier to read and understand. Dan Runyon cut the book down to a manageable size. Dave Anderson translated this book into a video curriculum. Sealy Yates encouraged and supported us throughout the whole process, from contract to finished book.

The alarm jangled. Bleary-eyed from too little sleep, Sherrie shut off the noisy intruder, turned on the bedside lamp, and sat up in bed. Looking blankly at the wall, she tried to get her bearings.

I am convinced that the average reader will find it difficult to accept the conclusions in this book.

But, because of the implications for the future of not only the United States but of the world, if I am correct, it is imperative that this material be considered, by as many as is possible. For this reason, I have attempted to keep the contents of this book as readable as I could.

TODAY JEFFERSON’S WORDS MIGHT read, “An occasional act of tyranny may be excused as a momentary lapse of judgment by officials, but a continuous series of such acts pursued through both Democratic and Republican administrations clearly proves there is a deliberate and systematic plan to reduce once-free Americans to slavery.” To be a zombie is to exist under the most onerous bonds of slavery—bonds that allow for no thought to one’s action. Zombies are controlled both mentally and physically action.

The first edition of the Textbook of Medical Physiology was written by Arthur C. Guyton almost 60 years ago. Unlike most major medical textbooks, which often have 20 or more authors, the first eight editions of the Textbook of Medical Physiology were written entirely by Dr. Guyton, with each new edition arriving on schedule for nearly 40 years.

He wrote the book to help students learn physiology, not to impress his professional colleagues. I worked closely with Dr.
