Monday Musings :: The Book I Am Writing


A Sneak Peek of the book that I am writing is described in this post.

It is a book that would be part of the genre Christian Living and Personal Improvement. 
It is for those of us who are consumed by disappointment and pain that life is not turning out how we thought it would. It is for the disillusioned and fatigued wondering what is the next right step for us to take. We may not even know that we are in this state, until life hits us square between the eyes with our own loss and mortality. 
 

It will take us, YOU the reader and myself, through a transformational process of experiencing solely Hurt and Pain to a place where living Wholeheartedly and with Hope is an innate posture or daily rhythm. 

Although it is not a linear transformational process, but rather a cyclical process, this book will identify the attitudes and emotions that may keep us stuck in each phase of the process.

This process includes four phases that each have mentalities with them, where we become stuck due to our attitudes, thoughts and behaviors. However, there is hope and in each phase we are able to pursue a renewing of our mind and retraining of our emotions. Each phase includes a shift in our mindsets and in our daily practices of responding to our worlds. We move from a reactive state to a proactive state acknowledging what we can control and what we surrender to God.

I have an outline pieced together and will be working on a Book Proposal next as I puzzle piece together various thoughts I have written down in the past. May we all be transformed through the healing practice of writing and witnessing the change in others.
