Exit the Cave: Ending the Reincarnation Trap, Book 1

Product Information

And also one in my story, where later in our faith, hope and love class, you told us the story of Hagar. Instead of a mere cheerleader who could land a round-off, I got something better: the raddest rock climber, snowboarder, wilderness therapist, hiker, surfer, and model a director could hope for. There was a lot of interesting insights and hard won wisdom, particularly for people with abuse or addiction in their past and/or for creatives who view life as a constant act of making and remaking. Young Blaine was stuck in the painful cycle of past abuse and ongoing addiction, then as an actor and artist, he received, unknown to him at the time, a life changing gift… his life fell apart.

It’s kind of the one of the bloody gutsy, gory stories of the Bible that we, you know, oftentimes don’t, we don’t discuss.

The author invites you to take up the practices of radical imagination and real creativity so that you may be able to tell your life's story in a more meaningful way. And especially as a creative professional where day in and day out, that’s the job, is to be creative. To use our pain and our trek through it as fuel to create wonderful things is a great gift that we are beautifully reminded of in Exit the Cave.

As long as we are true to ourselves, and as long as we trust God to lead the way, we should always do our best and let God handle the rest. Standard spirituality, religion and the New Age tell us that we live in a wonderful world, made by a creator who loves us, and who is always waiting for our prayers.To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Recently he directed a project with Google and the USOC following Olympians Tony Azevedo and Maya Moore. In this exposed story of his young life, Blaine shares the stories that shaped him guided by God's greater story for living in a complicated world. When The Picklr came to me with an interesting idea, I jumped at the chance to help make something fun, action-y, and absolutely epic.

And the descriptions of this character, I’m like, I’m, I’ve often said I feel like I’m the French meter of normalcy, which in itself is really narcissistic, but I feel very ordinary. It has been taboo for so long for men to speak out about how they experience violation and harm; but here is Blaine, setting a much needed precedent that tells a tale of pain and redemption. When the strikes weren’t happening, I found myself bumping into Harrison Ford at our local pizza place and, stumbling onto Shia LaBeouf, Jon Voigt running lines outside the bakery, and peeking in on Francis Ford Coppola when he shot in our actual neighborhood. But as a director in the commercial space, the client/agency has a problem, and they are hoping YOU can solve it for them. He acted because it helped him cope with things but he could never get really close to people He had problems because you don't find out why in the book you're supposed as a point of the The pain is managed to suffer.I was coming to the back of the cave and saying, there’s so much more shouting in the dark places, and the theaters and the, cinemas and the places where I was creating art. It could have been, I mean, if this had been and grateful it wasn’t videotaped, you know, it, it’s where you go. You’re the crazy, wild haired, professor that I meet in the kind of immediately following my inciting incident, that begins to, open up a world that I didn’t think was possible.

And so, you know, I think, though I won’t say for sure that CS Lewis picked up that concept and used the word shadow lands that we live in the shadow lands. After years stuck in the painful cycle of past abuse and ongoing addiction, actor and artist Blaine Hogan received the greatest gift: his life fell apart.And the real versus that, which is not unreal, but unsubstantial, and I think in so many ways, it, your, your story, and I don’t want to tell a story other than to say your relationship with your father, the harm that you endured, became the reality, when in fact, it was, and it was not. I found it interesting how this reflected his healing, as his story became more straightforward and less fractured. Thank you, Sean, for hopping on the other side of the camera and for pushing through that rolled ankle during stunt training for this one! A must read for any human being who has been held captive by addiction, trauma and/or the brokenness of others. And as I went back into those stories of my abuse, and I recognized the goodness of the boy who, was curious, the goodness of the boy who wanted care and touch and affection, and who wanted to be seen and taken delight in, it doesn’t remove the harm that happened.
