Functional Dysfunction tells a story of the author's life. It is transitioning from tragedy to triumph, and from abuse to abundance. Living in multiple states has put him in a position to have to engage, know, tolerate, and understand people. His childhood path could have put him on track for drugs and alcohol just to drown the noise of the inner pain resulting from physical abuse, emotional neglect, and molestation. He opted to not succumb, but to allow it to motivate him. Now being in Christian ministry for more than 30 years and a physician for 18 years, he chose to use his unique skillset in understanding people and their fears, hopes, setbacks, and humanness at its worst and its best. With that, he is able to affect change in people's lives by being in the healing profession, impacting mind, body, and soul.

Then shows you how during his journey he had to make a decision with understanding there is pain in change and pain in remaining the same, as he chose the one that moved him forward. He takes you from a barren land, to a land of milk and honey. He concludes with what he calls "winning strategies" to empower, encourage, and motivate his listeners that it is never too late to become a better version of yourself, and it can happen with changing your mindset, and your behaviors that are an extension of it. So that you can become that person you always knew that you could be, but life caused you some setbacks, and those setbacks discouraged you and made you settle.
