E.B.O.T.E.: (Every Body on the Earth)

Tracy Thomas does not like to talk to people who continuously use I, but how can we avoid this and still let others know who we are or what we think (if that even matters)? He experienced discomfort and uneasiness when conversing with such people, so he wrote E.B.O.T.E. (Every Body on the Earth) as a conversation between his consciousness and your own. The overuse of I in conversation, he feels, goes beyond implying a bloated self of self-importance, but he acknowledges that it's almost impossible to avoid. Years ago, Psalm 32:3-“When I kept silence, my bones waxed old through my roaring all the day long”-became a passage of great importance to him. These words inspired an epiphany in how he viewed the universe. At the time, he didn't understand its influence on his life or his compulsion to write. Now that he can look beyond the words to the context within, he feels he has finally grasped their importance. Until we acknowledge our sin with an honest and repentant heart, he believes, forgiveness is not necessarily a given for the believer. E.B.O.T.E. (Every Body on the Earth) is his gift to the ever-evolving conversation of the human experience, a guidebook to faith in yourself and above all, God.
