Book Description
Hello My Name is Santa produces Brill’s four voices in one book—trauma, addictions, recovery, and clinical voices. Brill honestly reveals himself as a victim and survivor of childhood and other trauma throughout his life. He openly shares his fifteen-year battle and demise with addictions leading to homelessness. Read of his fortitude and resilient journey through recovery and spiritual development to inspire others on their path of healing. As a licensed clinical professional, Brill’s final voice pushes for advocacy in returning to the holistic treatment of human beings through focused research-based trauma treatment for people suffering from substance use disorders. Join Brill as he shares the vivid triumphant stories of his world travels, especially his rite of passage in Bali, Indonesia, where his self and worldview changed for the positive. Read about his musical experiences following The Grateful Dead and his own contribution of musically preserving the musical legacy of the Dead. His vivid storytelling highlights his healing through the power of spiritual exploration and experiential education. Throughout the book, Brill skillfully and equally enthusiastically writes about his entire positive and negative life experiences in addictions and recovery being equal contributors and assets to the man he is today. He conveys a message that everything truly happens for a reason and there are always lessons to be learned. Throughout Brill’s recovery, he has experienced a multitude of blessings and achievements, but it was the timing and heartfelt experience of playing the cherished role of Santa Claus in 2017 that initiated his energy to share his story in this creation. Let Brill’s tragedies and achievements mutually inspire hope and direction for better lives today and tomorrow.

Pages : 201
Book Description
The world goes out of its way to make you believe you are not good enough. Maybe you aren't sure you like where you've been, or who you've become. Maybe someone has made you believe a lie about who you are by speaking damaging words to you. The discovery of our true identities does not begin by looking within ourselves, but by looking to the One who made us. Hello, My Name Is will inspire you to not wear the nametag that someone else gave you, but to wear the name of who God says you are. Your name may be "Lonely" . . . He calls you Friend. Your name may be "Failure" . . . He calls you Redeemed. Your name may be "Broken" . . . He calls you Beloved. It is time to tear off the false nametags that cover up your true identity. Understanding who you are begins with knowing Whose you are so you can embrace your destiny as a child of the one true King. "Hello, My Name Is will silence the lies of the enemy so you can hear God whisper, 'You are mine. You are wanted. You are so incredibly loved.'" -- Lysa Terkeurst, New York Times best-selling author and president of Proverbs 31 Ministries "Hello, My Name Is gets to the heart of an issue that haunts the homeless and the hero, the kid and the king, the disabled and the diva -- our identity." -- Randy Frazee, Senior Minister at Oak Hills Church, author of The Heart of the Story "Matthew West brings the rare combination of songwriter an pastor to his ministry. He is a modern-day King David, creating Psalms that touch the heart of God and God's children. Now, as an added blessing to us all, he has compiled his thoughts into a book. A person can almost hear Matthew sing through the pages. I'm deeply grateful for this work, this singer, this friend." -- Max Lucado, New York Times best-selling author "Matthew West has always written honestly in his songs and stories. In his latest book, Hello, My Name Is, Matthew may offer his greatest truth yet: how to discover our God-given identity while building a closer relationship with our Lord. I gained a lot of insight while reading this book, and I know you will as well." -- Scotty McCreery, ACM, BMI, and CMT award-winning country music entertainer and author of Go Big or Go Home: The Journey Toward the Dream
