What must we do to make our dreams come true? What can we do together to keep the promise of the American Dream? What should we do when so many of us have saved so little? Retirement not only offers a time to rest from our labors and relax with family and friends--to travel, play, and have fun--but it beckons us to find our true calling in action, peace of mind in reflection, the spirit moving in the moment of each day, and the grace of God in prayer and love of neighbor.The Life to Come: Re-Creating Retirement is sure to engage anyone who reads it... see how carefully Tipton avoids the impersonal and clich versions of advice-giving. Whoever reads this book will be introduced or reintroduced to experts, whose work bears on reflecting on "the life to come," including how to address and master many of the arts of living in retirement...This book is not about the "care of the very aged," but about facing and growing into retirement...readers will be better prepared for waking up to tomorrow, which means "living that life worth living." --from the foreword by Martin E.

Nearly 7 out of 10 Americans are overweight. Nearly 4 out of 10 Americans are obese. By 2030, 9 out of 10 Americans will be overweight. There's a fast food establishment on every corner. We wrap burgers in bacon and tacos in waffles. The average gym member exercises 17 times a year. We spend nearly 11 hours a day in front of screens. The fitness and nutrition industry is growing nearly 20% year over year but it still can't keep up with the growth of our waistlines. Success does not lie in a diet pill, or a fad diet. It lies within you. It lies within your habits and proclivities. You do not need a gluten free diet, you need a glutton free diet. In Glutton Free: The Case for Fitness in the 21st Century I will explain how we got here, why is it a greater economic burden than we realize, and what we might be able to do to shift the tides in the other direction. Glutton Free is a paradigm shift, and I'm asking you to join me.
