Breaking the Barriers: Unlocking the keys to Inner Peace is a topical devotional resource that is the first of a three volume series that aims to provide the reader with spiritual keys to help them overcome common barriers that prevent them from experiencing inner peace. These keys are intended to help the reader unlock the door of inner peace and move forward in life and get unstuck from the ruts of sadness, frustration and inner turmoil. As a result of experiencing peace, the reader is released to become the person that God wants them to be and achieve the purpose that God has for their life.

The decade following the American defeat in Vietnam has been filled with doubts about American politics and values, confusion over the lessons of the war, and anger about the physical and psychological suffering that occurred during the war as well as thereafter. In the years since the U.S. withdrawal, our need to make sense of Vietnam has prompted an outpouring of thinking and writing, from scholarly reappraisals of American foreign policy to highly personal accounts of participants. On the tenth anniversary of the final U. S. withdrawal, the Asia Society sponsored a conference on the Vietnam experience in American literature at which leading writers, critics, publishers, commentators, and academics wrestled with this phenomenon. Drawing on the synergy of this conference, Timothy J. Lomperis has produced an original work that focuses on the growing body of literature—including novels, personal accounts, and oral histories—which describes the experiences of American soldiers in Vietnam as well as the experience of veterans upon their return home.
