The Awakening

by Paul Schmidt

For sixteen-year-old Logan Murdock, “being in the moment” has always been an escape mechanism—a way to disconnect from painful realities. But when his Marine father is deployed and a violent man enters his mother’s life, Logan’s journey down the treacherous Batchawana River becomes a profound transformation that challenges everything he knows about survival, faith, and family.

"A powerful journey of transformation—where 'being in the moment' evolves from escape to a spiritual practice of radical presence, faith, and hope."
