{"product_id":"the-sea-slave-a-true-story","title":"The Sea Slave: A True Story","description":"I was once told by a psychiatrist that I had to write down on paper all the things in my past that haunted me. Things that I thought were normal were acts that were inhumane and wrong. After I wrote everything I could think of, I kept going through my life. I have God in my life today. I give all of my thanks to his glory, to break through from the chains that were holding me in bondage.\n\nThe only way God will start forgiving me is if I start forgiving other people. But most of all, I must forgive myself.\n\nAs children, we all loved adventures growing up. The adventure, for me, started as a casual glance at the ocean and the fishing boats being prepared for their next adventure. That common experience became something that impacted my life in ways I never imagined.\n\nThis is a true story about me as a boy on an adventure that lasted thirty years on the sea.\n\nI grew up with hard-knock old-school discipline and work ethics, as well as believing in God and his Son. All these teachings were needed to endure what was ahead, and many people lost their lives along the way. I cast myself into the industry of commercial fishing, where the laws are few except one: the captain's law.\n\nThe worst of situations and conditions can tear a man to pieces, or it can be used to bring incredible goodness and new life.\n\nThis adventure brought a legend to the fishing industry scathing injury and death to talk about it.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B0DV1FHQWW\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.B0DV1FHQWW.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Matthews, Kyle J\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: The item shows wear from consistent use, but it remains in good condition and works perfectly.
