2Our lives are carved by challenges that have the ability to hold us for extended seasons. Any form of prolonged captivity will often alter, if not permanently derail a purposed path. Our best life finds itself diminished, or hanging on the edge of hope and faith, with no true resolve. We are held back by chains which can be so impermeable, they appear normal. Normal yet catastrophic. Within these pages we identify these shackles. Our purpose and destiny remains a dream, until we do the hard work of self-exploration, that transforms us to be able to cultivate a platform for successful living. These chapters are captivating and relatable, and while they may have been stories we've encountered, a case discovery approach to them produces new patterns of strongholds.
