Snapshot

This book is about the snapshot in life that has made it difficult to function while wondering what it is. We discuss the thing that has happened that typically gets dismissed as insignificant and having no bearing on life. We discuss the point where there is an event that has an impact on the psyche that causes one to start the survival of life than truly living life. Even in what looks like living, there can be a theme being lived out that stems from the snapshot, a trauma event. The trauma event does not have to be dramatic; it can be something said or done that doesn't seem significant. This is then being stuck and what toxic things are developed because of that. These toxic things are looked at in light of what Jesus said in John 10:10a: "e;The thief comes to steal, kill and destroy."e; It is looking at the thievery that is done because of this stuck point.It then leads to a discussion about how to get out of that stuck place and then to begin to truly live as Jesus talks about in John 10:10b. It is peering at the abundant life that Jesus said He came to give and how to get out of the dregs of being constantly robbed by an unseen enemy. It is getting out of the denial of the said insignificance of the snapshot. This has shaped the lives of many to live in dark places of depression and anxiety. The pain of the snapshot has also led to the tragedy of suicide that some have believed to be their way out. It is learning an authentic way to live that involves breaking the silence that David talked about in Psalms 32:3. We discuss breaking into the daylight of reality that brings truth, hope, and the ability to give and receive the love of others and of our Creator.
