Here's the situation: you wake up one day to find crow's feet, a kid with a license, and a stalling career. You are driving a car you hate, your nails are mangled stubs, and you are wearing those comfortable shoes that-let's be honest-don't flatter anyone. What happened? It's time to wake up and make some changes. As women, many of us have been hiding from our truth-we're getting older, our kids will leave, and we darn well better have a life carved out for ourselves. We've gone overboard making it all about our kids, so it's time to step out because there really is no wizard behind the green curtain to magically take care of everything. Remember what Glinda said?

ALL IN details Palmer's discoveries around life in this world and the next, all while laying bare his human failures and insecurities offered up to the mercy and compassion of God. For combat veterans and everyday readers alike, ALL IN was written to help others find their identity and purpose in serving Christ and others.
Adam Palmer is a husband, father, and U.S. Army veteran who served three deployments in Iraq and received the Purple Heart for wounds received in combat. His greatest passion is serving Jesus by impacting as many people as possible through God's love. Originally the product of a small town nestled in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina, he and his family now reside in northern Illinois, where he pursues his passion for seeing lives changed by training and mentoring young people. By volunteering his time, experience, and resources, Adam is humbled and honored to prepare youth for military careers and help them discover their path to a successful and abundant life in Christ. He believes that life is an adventure, and Jesus is the best tour guide. Above all, Adam longs to one day hear, Well done, good and faithful servant.

He and his associates, Shizzle, Hud, K-Dawg, and Big Baby engage in a modern tale of discovery regarding the truth about mortality in this life and the one that follows. ALL IN is gritty. But, it is gritty in its heartfelt transparency of a wounded soul admitting his human failures and insecurities while affirming the grace and mercy which is offered by a compassionate God.

ALL IN is ultimately an incredible confession of healing found in the second chance of life offered by Jesus Christ. A must read for saints, seekers, and skeptics alike. - CAPTAIN James R.
