MiyagiWays is a collection of books and reflections exploring faith, philosophy, simplicity, contentment, purpose, and the way we choose to live.
The Idea
We live in a world that constantly tells us to want more, achieve more, buy more, and move faster.
MiyagiWays explores another possibility.
A life of greater intention. Greater simplicity. Deeper thought. Stronger values. And a clearer understanding of what is truly enough.
Every book here approaches that question from a different angle — some through story, some through direct reflection, some through argument and conversation. None of them claim to have the whole answer. Together, they're an ongoing inquiry rather than a fixed philosophy.
Personal Philosophy
From the Collection
Fiction & Stories
A South African road-trip novel
A man who quietly built a fortune gives most of it away, buys an old VW van, and sets out across South Africa in search of what "enough" actually means.
Faith
A Biblical framework
Ten principles for slowing down and living with purpose, peace, and eternal impact — rooted in faith, wisdom, and meaningful values.
Fiction & Stories
Capitalism, Marxism, and the search for a higher truth
Two lifelong friends test their decades-long argument about markets and labour against a buyout, a failing cooperative, and a friendship nearly lost.
A Season of Small Work
What a season of small work taught me about the soul
A nineteen-year-old is sent to split wood without being told why. Fifteen ordinary chores later, he's learned more about strength, patience, and integrity than any lecture could teach.
Perhaps you need less noise.
Less comparison.
Less hurry.
Less distraction.
And more time to think about what actually matters.
