One of the most powerful truths I've ever been exposed to is that each of us are formed after a pattern. We are made in God's image. We are crafted in His likeness. We are, as He is, tripartite beings. We are SPIRIT, SOUL, and BODY. While religion has focused most of its attention and dogma in the direction of dealing with the spirit part of man, there has been, (and still is) a void in the area of dealing with the soul of man. We also see masses of people who focus a great deal of energy, money, and time on their bodies, attempting to live healthy lives in a physical sense.

In my book, 'The Ties That Bind',  I deal with the absolute necessity of a healthy soul. What is the soul? It is that part of the human existence that houses the emotions, the thoughts, the beliefs, and the attitudes that actually shape our lives. It is that arena in which our wounds, our hurts, our experiences, our feelings, and our memories are held. If you will, it is the "hard-drive" of the mind, where all old information and its corresponding belief patterns are stored.

Over the next few months, this blog will be focusing on exploring this arena in detail. My desire is to expose you to a series of ideas and thoughts that will challenge you to begin to line up all three areas, so that your life can function holistically and effectively. Join us as we explore THE SOUL.
