Overview

"JUST BOW is a two part treatise that brings us fresh revelation concerning the tedious inner workings of relationships. In a brilliant synthesis of family systems based on a Biblical world view, the author has delivered a profound insight into the proverb, ""God has bound all men in disobedience in order to show mercy."" Just Bow demonstrates how the symptoms of a distressed person or relationship may be the result of one ""bearing a burden"" belonging to the family system. Recognizing the symptom bearer as a representative for the lost parts of the family, the symptom bearer is identified as having become entangled to re-present something or someone forsaken and in need of reconciliation. Just Bow demystifies the system's broken parts and redeems our image of one another, and more importantly, our view of the Great Representative on Calvary. Through the lens of divine orders, family burden bearers are reconciled and liberated to live their lives in peace. The same mapping tools that allow us to see how Love heals earthly relationships also allow us to engage the Scriptures in an embodied way that supercharges our faith. Just Bow part one will teach readers how to break trance with the system long enough to own the specific wish that opens the door to change. Using the wish as a guide, readers can track symptoms to root injuries that burden the soul of the whole family system. By grasping the greater context of the symptoms, readers learn how disorderly arrangements have kept problems in place. Once the forgotten are honored, the placements in a family system are rearranged allowing the Kingdom orders to emerge to infuse marriage, family and faith with love. Reorientation aligns responsibilities with those truly called to carry them. The ancient Biblical family systems display patterns of unfinished business common in the human struggle. Covering key family dynamics in growth into dating, marriage, parenting, and grief recovery, readers learn the distinctions of developing love over a lifetime. From the micro of family life, to the macro context of a Biblical scope of history, the reader examines a sustaining counter cultural message that God is Love as source, resource and Life. Just Bow part two will expand the reader's access to the scriptures by studying patterns as a key code in sacred texts. The same tools used for family healing yield even more reward when applied to the study of scripture. A compelling mystical narrative illustrates all the orders of grace the reader needs to reconcile the impossible. In the end, the reader will capture what it means to move out from under the family burdens and find rest by bowing down in a spiritual field of grace where Love reigns."
