Trust the Confession is an examination of the true causes of our vast societal ills and a frank discussion of what can be done to resolve them. The chief cause of our societal downfall is a system of living that 1) has neglected and continues to neglect to educate toward the development of character and practice the qualities expressive of substantive character and 2) favors the achievement of personal meaning and purpose through external sources and promotes power, authority, and prominence as sustainable means to attain legitimacy. This system of living produces the symptoms for which our nation has suffered consistently since its inception: racism, injustice, socioeconomic inequality, discrimination, gender inequality, mass gun violence, hatred,
political division, and more.
Throughout the book, Mr. Leonard examines the various symptoms and issues surrounding this system of living-touching on several hot-button issues with respect. The author draws the reader to the conclusion that the only solution with any long-term viability begins with educating the populace toward the development, value, and practice of substantive character. This training will elevate who a person is intrinsically to an equivalent level of importance with what they are externally and possess materially. A much-needed treatise on the state of our nation, Trust the Confession will encourage every reader to examine their understanding of the world in which we live, challenge their own perspectives with thoughtful consideration, and conduct an honest
appraisal of what they can do to make our world a better place to live for everyone.
