Still Standing with Clarence E. Stowers, Jr.
Start with the most recent episode. That's where the real conversation begins.
I do not teach from theory. I teach from survival.
This is for people who did everything right and still watched life fall apart anyway.
After 30 years of leading, rebuilding, losing, surviving, and starting over, Clarence E. Stowers, Jr. speaks from scars instead of scripts.
No polish. No pretending. No performance.
This show is for high-capacity adults rebuilding their lives after the version that used to work stopped working.
Start with the most recent episode. Everything before that belongs to a different season of this show.
New episodes every Wednesday.

How To Protect Your Peace and Your Paper | Episode 57
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Everybody wants peace. Nobody wants to protect it. Everybody wants financial freedom. Nobody wants the honest conversation about money. Today, we do both.
Episode 57 of the When Faith Feels Far series. Chapters 13 & 14: Protecting Your Peace and Protecting Your Paper.
What You'll Learn:
① Why peace is infrastructure — and what collapses when it goes
② How to spot the peace thieves disguised as good things
③ Why the church needs to talk about money honestly
④ The difference between stewardship and ownership
⑤ The two-part audit: one hour, two lists, one week
This Week's Practice:
Identify one peace thief and one money leak. Write the boundary. Enforce it for seven days.
Key Takeaways:
- Peace is infrastructure. If your peace has no wall, your life has no floor.
- Peace thieves hide in good things. Audit your commitments.
- Money avoidance is not spiritual. It is dangerous.
- You are a steward, not an owner. Stewards know the numbers.
- Financial margin is spiritual margin. When money breathes, faith breathes.
- One boundary for peace. One fix for money. That is the whole assignment.
