    How do you know if that thing that just happened was God trying io get your attention...or not?Some people believe that God speaks directly to individuals and may even claim to havehad an experience where God spoke to them in some way. And there are some that wouldsay that God has never spoken to them and look with cynicism at someone who claims tohave heard his voice. And then there are some that want to believe that God does speak,and maybe yearn to hear from Him, but need more evidence to get over their doubts.Which of these are you?Drawing from personal experiences of hearing God's voice in his life, Mike McGeoyshares his perspectives and belief that...God is always speaking to us, but most of thetime we aren't listening.Mike shares, sometimes humorously, the various ways in which he has heard God's voice.Not in audible tones...but in nature, through music, through encounters with otherpeople, through prayers (both answered and unanswered), and even in dreams. His invitationis for you to come along on the journey with him as he describes his:humble beginnings as a Catholic schoolboysupernatural conversion experience at a Christian youth retreat in Santiago, Chilenear perfect round of golf with Jesus by his sideAnd then decide for yourself if God might be trying, or has ever tried, to get your attention!

    Can your life be so functional that it ends up making you crazy?I guess that depends on how you define the term functional and how you define the term crazy. If functional can be defined as the conventional ideal … and crazy can be defined as anything else, then who is anyone to judge?In my line of work, I expected there would be crazy. I’m a therapist, after all. And yet even though I expected crazy, there was one simple fact I never expected. There are those that are crazy. But then, there are those that are driven crazy. Loaded up on a bus headed to Crazy Town. A bus filled with people whose experiences, traumas, tragedies, and pain convinced them they had a one-way ticket.But I would not be convinced. For one reason and one reason only: That just didn’t make sense.When people walk through your door day after day after day expecting you to fix the disorders that brought them there, you first have to find the disorder. But what if your therapist can only find “disorders”? What if she begins to identify that the disorders you thought you had were actually authentic sensibilities in disguise? Moving you from the back of the bus to the driver’s seat? Compelling you to think that maybe a one-way ticket isn’t so bad after all …Functional and Crazy is the strange twin of C+F. It’s a 40,000 word stand-alone companion best described as the love child between Oliver Sachs and the Bill & Ted movies.While both are self-help, they take more cues in tone from graphic memoirs like Fun Home: A Family Tragicomic and Persepolis than they do from comparable self-help books like The Subtle Art of Not Giving a Fuck and You Are A Badass.The catalyst for Crazy and Functional was this one question: “Why do my clients consider me so high functioning despite being the conductor of my own crazy train?” Functional and Crazy takes the question to the next level: “What is considered functional, and who makes up those rules?” And finally through all of my research, media writing and speaking as a therapist, I arrived at this question: “Could it be that the rules of what is defined as functional actually be what makes my clients crazy?” The books open up larger conversations, such as: Is authenticity reserved for the enlightened, or can it be taught? Does the teacher of authenticity need the wisdom of a guru or the true grit of a rodeo trick rider?
