ALIGNMENT An Unlikely Road to Bethlehem, (Hardcover)

"Baldwin primarily presents his story in the third person, lending the narrative a tense and often electrifying energy that reads more like fiction than memoir." - Critic's Report Book Life Prize

Alignment is a story of hope, healing, and humanity as a small-town American INFJ battles himself, life, and the world seeking to decipher his own life purpose. On the outside, he led an unconventional life path. Culpeper to Los Angeles. Paramount Pictures to the Himalayan foothills. Bollywood to Gandhi Ashram in Ahmedabad, Gujarat. Building nonprofits. Chasing purpose. The Gandhi/King unity project. Troop 1992 Mark Twain. Decades in India.

However, on the inside, he resided at ADX Willow Tree, his psychological prison of shame, resulting from a web of forty years of trauma and a vice to numb the pain. Often seeking to escape from himself.

Alignment opens with a (48 Day/48 State) road trip to break a trauma bond, a nightmare gifted to him by an entanglement with a covert narcissist. Over the course of the journey, flashbacks serve as puzzle pieces that begin to paint a picture of a soul struggling to heal, struggling to get his mind back, to lift the fog of doubt.

A series of events began to awaken him. The love and light he received from a relationship and Divine children would shake him to his core. In an instant, a violent assault would change everything and slingshot him into the Holy Land, a world full of endless strife for centuries. And then it happened. He received a Divine download that connected the dots, aligned him with purpose, and gave him a message for humanity.

"Through a series of unconventional life events spanning from small-town America to the heart of the Middle East, Baldwin navigates the complexities of self-discovery and redemption. His writing style captures the essence of his inner turmoil and the external challenges he faces, creating a vivid tapestry of hope and humanity.

As Baldwin unravels the puzzle of his own life, each flashback and revelation serve as a poignant piece in his journey towards understanding and acceptance. From the depths of psychological turmoil to the heights of spiritual awakening, Baldwin's narrative resonates with raw emotion and profound insight.

Alignment is not just a memoir; it's a testament to resilience, faith, and the enduring power of the human spirit. Baldwin's skillful storytelling invites readers on a transformational journey of self-discovery, leaving them captivated until the very last page." Michelle Fernandez
