The Waters of Awakening - In the shadows of the Smoky Mountains, a young traveler named Arieh sets out on a journey that tests his strength, stirs his spirit, and awakens his soul. Guided by visions and whispers of an ancient lake hidden deep within the wilderness, he walks a path marked by hardship, betrayal, and loss-yet along the way discovers healing, grace and love. Traveling the storied Unicoi Turnpike and venturing into the perilous wilds of the Nantahala, Arieh learns that every step draws him closer not only to the mystical waters he seeks, but also to the truth of his identity-and to the God who leads him forward. Woven with adventure, Cherokee legend, timeless truths, and the life-changing power of forgiveness and redemption, The Waters of Awakening is a tale of courage and calling. It is the story of a man learning to trust the One who guides him-awakening to a destiny far greater than his own.
