Carter Krummrich has a degree in literary journalism from the University of California, Irvine. He has interned and worked for several periodicals and lives in Southern California.

Craig used to have it all. The house, the ministry, the reputation, the picture perfect family, and yeah, the money.

But Craig also has something else: a desire to build wealth. Not the kind you find on a bank statement or in an investment fun, but the kind of wealth you can take with you when you go.

Craig found what he was looking for, but he has to give up a lot to get it. At the end of the day, he’d rather have his soul than gain the world( or at least what it values most).

This is a story about how one man made a decision, chased down a vision, and stepped foot into the Kingdom of Heaven.

Bankrupt but Spiritually Rich available for FREE on 4/20/23 only. $3.33 after that.

The final book from Craig Gross.

This was transcribed as a download while in Mexico in 2021 and with the help of Jeanette was edited. It was believed that I would finish this book at some point but spirit has lead me to release it now.

It is 17,845 words and my last book Craig Brain was over 115k words.

What I have here is all that I have left to say. If you can see it’s obvious but not in plain site. The rest of my story will be a movie for someone else to tell. We hope that will be Amir Bar- Lev and his crew https://www.amirbarlev.com as we have started down a path with their company to talk about all that has happened since I started my great surrender.

The story includes Rainbow Ridge and a handful of people, companies and artists that change the world. It is my desire that some of the artists alongside us might soon be working with Warner Brothers to release some music.

You wonder how opting out of the Matrix looks on my kids. Well, we let them out of high school after 9th grade to begin their dreams and please follow along their journey.

My son just released the best website on the planet - www.Nolan gross.com and his album LOOK UP comes out this year.

My daughter used to run other peoples Shopify’s stores now has her own https://apothafairy.co/ and has so many things to share with the world including dance, music and just about everything else because she understands her power from within.

Jeanette Gross is now Jeanette Bourgo and lives in Portland, Oregon and is working on Mama J’s Medicinals and a book of her own. We were both able to detach from our 3D marriage and life we lived as the Gross Family for 22 years. In fact what you are about to read in this book has only been seen by Jeanette and myself. Our decision to divorce was just that. Ours. What we have done together as a family and what we created with our two kids was and is still special although it looks different than any of us every could have imagined.

Craig Gross became Craig Rose on my last birthday for Craig Gross and the beginning of a second part of this journey as Craig Rose. On 12/22/22 at 2:22pm I married Daisy Rose and we have plans to travel the world and live the most abundant life we can because it won’t be like this forever. A medicine woman, healer, and source of love beyond this time or space. I am excited for the world to know and see her as I have from first locking eyes.

I believe I have written 16 books as Craig Gross. Over the course of the last 25 years my views on life, God, self, source, religion porn, sex, drugs and rock and roll might have changed or expanded but one thing can be said about me. I have been a man after the truth my whole life. In 2020 after learning about Jeanette having cervical cancer, I decided to quit my job, stop earning income for anyone, hold spiritual retreats using spiritual plants and gave away or sold everything that I owned.

There's nothing I hold onto

There's nothing I hold onto

There's nothing I hold onto

There's nothing I hold onto

There's nothing I hold onto

There's nothing I hold onto

There's nothing I hold onto

There's nothing I hold onto

That was a phrase that I kept hearing and over the course of the last 3 years go, I can say I have let go of anything I once held.

Over 1.3 million dollars, a house , Jeanette, Nolan, Elise, 401k, my identity as a pastor, my vehicles, my favorite things I all let go as I was directed. The money was either a gift or part of an “incubator” https://www.creatingfun.com/incubator that went to projects that we really believed in or could add more than just cash too.

During this ride, as things were approaching empty, Jeanette tried to file for bankruptcy.

Jesus told his disciples to deny themselves, take up their cross daily, and follow him. That didn’t mean to die on a cross every day a physical death but meant be willing to DIE.

My friend Tony was convinced you had to DIE TO LIVE and lit himself on fire.

You don’t have to die to live. You just have to be willing to die to live.

What does that mean?

“The first will be last”

I read it as do the opposite of what “they” tell you.

So, 3 years ago. I stopped earning. I stopped producing. I just let it all go and it took a bit of time because I have been holding a lot of things. On the day I release this book, I say goodbye to all that I did and said as Craig Gross and hope this book encourages on your path wherever you are at on the road. You are at the perfect place right where you are at.

After some long discussions with Jeanette, attorneys and friends, I told Jeanette and the kids that I didn’t believe we would ever be bankrupt but I was willing to go bankrupt and told them that I felt like this was the title of a book I would someday share about the process of letting it all go. So, this book is short. It is just the opening for many to see beyond a world that they currently believes exists. I hope you enjoy it as much I have enjoyed experiencing all of this. ChristianCannabis.com and Spiritual Plants will be shipping this year, I do promise with our without me those projects will make it past the finish line despite all of the forces trying to prevent that. I will leave you with two of my favorites lyricists - David Le'aupepe and Justin Vernon.

FEAR AND TREMBLING

“I'm a crier and a fighter, not a faker and a fraud

So if losing my religion is the way to finding God

Then light it up, the shadow's in my blood

"Oh, a weary heart", they say, "it shatters it all"

So light it up, it's bound to be much worse

When they get, get, get, get back to the summer

If they get, get, get, get back to the summer at all

—————

HEAVENLY FATHER

“All along me I can hear you

I'd occupy that

Can't sit back long while you're forming that

Oh my mind our kids got bigger

But I'm climbing down the bastion now

You take me out to pasture now

Well, I won't be angry long

Well, I can't be angry long

We burnt up in my bed

Standing on the mattress, Laul

Laul, can't we just patch this up?

And I cannot seem to carry it all

All along we I can hear me”

Ever since I heard the howlin' wind

I didn't need to go where a bible went

But then you know your gifts seemed heaven sent

Just lead me to a choler, dad, that's the thing

I don't know how you house the sin

But you're free now

I was never sure how much of you I could let in

And I'm free now

Won't you settle down baby here your love has been

Heavenly father

It's definitely lava

Why you don't carry other names?

Heard about a day where it dropped the know

To go another day as we learn to close

'Cause I'm a known coward in a coward wind

But you're free now

You turn around now and you count to 10

To see you go now

Well I know now honey that I can't pretend

Heavenly father

Is whose brought to his autumn

And love is left in end

I just been up here for god damn years

Can you see now?

Filling up hulls with god damn fears

I am free now

I know about it darlin', I've been standin' here

Heavenly father

Is all that he offers

A safety in the end
