, /PRNewswire/ -- In an effort to foster genuine connection, U.S. Air Force veteran and author Courtlin D. Fields is transforming the launch of his new book into a vital community event. The premiere of a special pre-recorded performance celebrating his book, Learning to Love My Life: GOD had to break me to heal me, will be held this Thursday, September 18, 2025, at 7:30 PM EDT.

Courtlin D. Fields writes not as a distant observer, but as a frontline correspondent reporting from the battlefield of the heart. A medically retired 20-year Air Force veteran and member of the Wounded Warrior Program, his words were forged in the crucible of trauma and resilience. His new book is a manual for survival and a blueprint for finding light in profound darkness.

"The world is full of pointing fingers. We should be asking, 'How can I help the person in front of me?'" states Fields.
