Book: Buried Beneath the Words


Words! Words! Words!

Words all over the place. Accusing, blaming, and degrading words are the worst of all. After hearing those words over and over again, we begin to feel the weight of them threatening to crush the very life out of us.

Buried Beneath the Words cleverly shares a true life story about the different ways someone can end up buried beneath the weight of negative words. Then it shares a Christian course for how God's word can revive us. By putting the advice given within these pages into practice, you will experience an awakening of the real you---the you that has been buried way too long.

There's a reason I don't usually read non-fiction... I just can't finish it.  I'm not sure why, but it's hard for me to sit and just read and if I don't well, life gets in the way!  (I usually finish any fiction book within 2 days or less)

The premise of this book is that you've lived your life under the weight of words said over you when you were growing up.  There are sections in the book for self reflection.  To be honest, I couldn't think of any words said over me, good or bad, so that made it really hard for me to apply.  Perhaps this just isn't the kind of book that I resonate with, I'm not a good fill in the blank person.

However, I could see how this book could be a powerful tool of reflection for someone who see themselves as worthless in some way by those who had influence over them while they were growing up.
