    The thoughts you have when you're depressed come from the devil. And the good news for you is that the devil is a liar.Do you feel weighed down all the time? Perhaps, although you are a Christian and know you're going to heaven, your spiritual life seems mediocre at best. You know the Bible says to rejoice always, and you'd like to be living joyfully, but you just don't know how.In this sequel to How to Be Free from Bitterness, Jim Wilson returns to talk about how to deal with (and get rid of) depression, feelings of guilt, and problems with self-esteem. Many Christians feel like they are enslaved these sins, like there is no way out. But this is not true. The truth is that Christ has freed us from the penalty of sin and the power of sin. If you are a Christian, you are already free. Depression, guilt, low self-esteem-whatever your problem is, it can be put to death. "And you will know the truth, and the truth will make you free" (John 8:32).

    "An inviting mix of star-studded encounters and an affirmation of a persevering artistic spirit." - Kirkus Reviews"A truly fascinating tale by a fascinating man." - Martin Short"So much more than I expected. ... Highly recommended!" - Ray RomanoTuned In: Memoirs of a Piano Man offers a message of hope to anyone pursuing a dream against the odds. The unique convergence of Jim Wilson's two careers - piano technician/confidant to the stars and a globally successful recording artist - has led to extraordinary experiences with some of the world's most exalted music legends: singing Beatle songs with Paul McCartney, limo rides with Elton John, road trips with Carole King, and horseback riding with Dan Fogelberg. But beyond this everyman's unique telling of intimate celebrity tales, Tuned In is an inspiring story of one man's relentless pursuit of a dream, and a revealing testimony to the power of music in all our lives. Emerging from a troubled childhood in a broken West Texas home, a young man moves to Los Angeles to pursue fame and fortune as a singer-songwriter. He soon strays from his mission when his piano tuning sideline blossoms into a career as piano technician to the entertainment industry's biggest names. His help in the development of the world's first MIDI-adapter for acoustic piano leads to him sharing adventures, sessions, meals, and laughs with dozens of his childhood heroes. His front row seat provides him with a rare and fascinating view into their creative processes. But when his world is shattered by his dearest friend's sudden and untimely death, he is forced to question the true meaning of success. He returns to his heart's purpose, takes a leap into the unknown, and sets out on a solo career, recording and performing his signature style of piano-featured instrumentals. Along the way he battles countless obstacles, including crippling panic attacks. After four Billboard Top-20 albums, two PBS specials, and over 75 million worldwide streams of his compositions, Jim reflects on his life in music. He offers us a candid, humorous, insider's account of the raucous LA scene and shares engaging tales of his time spent with music legends.

    Jim Wilson has been climbing since 1978 and considers himself an experienced mountaineer but not an expert. He has enough skills to climb at high altitude but the stories are more about the journey and not the technical aspects. From being a Munro climber in Scotland he went on to climb a 20,000 foot mountain in Nepal - the trip of a lifetime! But he kept going back!This is a fairly laid back account of trekking and climbing big mountains including being on the highest of them all, Everest. It is a great introduction to all the highs and lows of trekking in some remote areas, often humorous but sometimes facing really difficult situations.This is the story of four adventures in Nepal and Tibet.Check out his website for more: www.jim-wilson.com
