Not the book — the workbook built around you
This isn’t a copy of DETERMINED. It’s a new, personalized guide built from its 13 chapters and rewritten around what you are living with. Choose your condition from 30+ options, tell us your season of life and the area you live in, and we’ll prepare a beautifully designed digital workbook — your name on the cover, prompts, prayers, Scripture, and local resources written for your specific diagnosis. Type your answers straight into the PDF on any device — or print it and write by hand.
Digital download. One-time purchase; yours to type in or print.
We never sell or share your information. Your personalized workbook is automatically deleted from our storage after 90 days. Privacy details.
DETERMINED is a faith-based encouragement resource. It is not medical advice. Always consult your physician or qualified healthcare provider about your condition and treatment. Full disclaimer.
Take a look inside
A short, honest look at what’s actually in your personalized workbook — the letter written to you, the 13 guided chapters, the Scripture, prayers, and prompts shaped around your specific diagnosis.
Want the book that started it all? Determined by Mark K. Fry is on Amazon.
What makes it yours
Choose from 25+ conditions — MS, Lupus, Fibromyalgia, RA, Diabetes, Chronic Pain, Cancer, Parkinson's, Heart Disease, Anxiety & Depression, Long COVID, Crohn's, POTS, and more, plus an ‘Other’ option if yours isn’t listed. Every chapter’s prompts are written for the reality of that diagnosis.
Displayed on the cover, spoken to on the inside. The intro letter is addressed to you by name — not a generic reader.
Young parent, single adult, caregiver, empty nester, retired — the prompts meet you where you actually are, not where a template thinks you are.
A regional resources page with vetted, established organizations near you — MS Society, NAMI, hospital systems. No informal groups, no doctor recommendations.
A real sample
A full digital sample workbook we prepared for Elizabeth — a empty nester living with Osteoarthritis — with a personalized cover, a letter written to them, regional and national resources, and condition-specific reflection prompts across all 21 chapters. Fillable PDF — type your answers directly in, or print it.

Every workbook is drawn from Determined: Encouragement for Living Your Best Life with a Chronic Illness — Mark Fry’s honest, hope-filled book from 28 years of living with MS. Prefer to read the book first? Grab it on Amazon and then come back for your workbook.
