Paperback. From Boots to Brokenness to Breakthrough is a profound exploration of depression among African American Veterans and Service Members, told through the eyes of a seasoned chaplain who has walked beside those carrying the invisible wounds of trauma, racism, moral injury, and silence. With raw honesty and deep compassion, this book invites readers into the sacred space where clinical care meets spiritual healing. Drawing from years of experience, the author offers a holistic perspective that embraces the complexities of mental health, cultural identity, faith, and resilience. Through personal stories, theological insights, and grounded clinical frameworks like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), readers discover that depression is not just a medical condition-it's a spiritual reckoning, a grief response, a soul-level protest. This book sits with the suffering, names the truth, and gently walks readers toward healing. It honors the quiet courage it takes to ask for help. It's for chaplains, clergy, caregivers, and Veterans alike who believe that healing must include not just the body and mind, but the spirit and soul. From Boots to Brokenness to Breakthrough is a call to listen deeply, care boldly, and believe that-even after all this-joy, hope, an purpose in committed action can still be a reality. Chaplain Alpha Sanon is a devoted husband, father, and a compassionate voice for mental and spiritual healing. As trained Mental Health Chaplain, he received his Doctoral of Ministry and clinical training from Vanderbilt University School of Divinity, where he deepened his commitment to faith-based care rooted in empathy, education, and service.Alpha is a US Navy Veteran who served in three combat tours and now works with veterans and their families who are experiencing psychosocial and spiritual challenges exacerbating overall mental wellness and causing suffering. Chaplain Alpha has made it his life's mission to educate communities about the real and lasting effects of depression among military veterans. Through workshops, writing, pastoral care, and public speaking, he helps people find hope, healing, and renewed purpose. This item is printed on demand.
