NEWEST RELEASE
Modern Man’s Search for Meaning
“We can do nothing more important than to wrestle with the purpose of our lives.”
Have you ever achieved everything you thought you wanted, only to discover something was still missing?
Do you wonder why so many successful people still struggle with emptiness, anxiety, loneliness, or the feeling that there must be more to life?
In Modern Man's Search for Meaning, Michael Lassman explores one of life's most important questions: Why am I here?
Drawing on the timeless insights of Viktor Frankl, Carl Jung, Alfred Adler, and Sigmund Freud—examined through a biblical worldview—Mike reveals how God uniquely designed every person with purpose, meaning, and a calling that extends far beyond achievement or success.
Blending history, personal experience, faith, and practical wisdom, this book offers a roadmap for discovering who you were created to become and how to live a life marked by significance, fulfillment, and lasting impact.
“What if the greatest crisis of modern life isn't a lack of success...but a lack of meaning?”
A STORY OF FREEDOM, FAITH, & REDEMPTION
Killing Mr. Hyde
“The hardest person to overcome is often the one staring back in the mirror.”
A successful Wall Street trader and corporate executive appears to have everything—until alcoholism slowly begins destroying his career, his relationships, and his sense of self.
In Killing Mr. Hyde, Michael Lassman shares his deeply personal journey through addiction, brokenness, and ultimately, redemption. With honesty and vulnerability, he explores the fears, lies, pride, and spiritual struggles that kept him trapped—and the transforming power of God's grace that set him free.
Blending true stories, practical wisdom, heartfelt humor, and enduring hope, Killing Mr. Hyde is more than a memoir. It is a story about finding freedom, embracing healing, and discovering that our greatest failures never have to become the final chapter of our lives.
“Every one of us has a Mr. Hyde. The question is whether we'll allow him to define us.”
COMING SOON
The Seven Stones
“You cannot change the world until you become the person capable of changing it.”
Every day we influence the lives of those around us.
Our words, decisions, relationships, and actions create ripples that extend far beyond what we can see. Yet the most important question isn't what we throw into the world.
It's who is throwing the stone.
In The Seven Stones, Michael Lassman explores seven transformative journeys every person must take before they can leave a lasting legacy. Drawing from the groundbreaking work of Sigmund Freud, Alfred Adler, Carl Jung, Viktor Frankl, Abraham Maslow, Robert Kegan, James Fowler, Erik Erikson, and timeless biblical truth, he reveals the inner obstacles that prevent us from becoming the people God created us to be.
Freedom from unhealthy dependence.
Freedom from inferiority.
Development of a secure and authentic identity.
A life of meaning.
Spiritual maturity.
Authentic transformation.
Only when these foundations are established do we become capable of influencing our families, communities, and future generations in ways that truly matter.
More than a book about legacy, The Seven Stones is a guide to becoming the kind of person whose life naturally creates lasting impact.
“Every person wants to change the world. The world changes when we become the people God created us to be.”
A TRIBUTE TO FAITH, COMFORT & HOPE
Mornings with Mom
One mother's daily words of faith became a year-long reminder that God is always present.
When the world came to a standstill during the COVID-19 pandemic in March 2020, Michael’s mother began sending a simple morning email to family and friends. What started as a gesture of love during an uncertain season became 365 consecutive days of Scripture, encouragement, reflection, and prayer.
Those daily messages became a source of peace, hope, and perspective for everyone who received them—and now they can become part of your morning as well.
Whether you're beginning your day with a cup of coffee, searching for comfort in a difficult season, or simply longing to spend a few quiet moments with God, Mornings with Mom invites you to slow down, reflect on His Word, and discover the message He may have prepared just for you today.
