About this listen

This is a mind-blowing, true story of Woody Overton, a veteran homicide detective's real-life near-death experience and his harrowing journey into the depths of mental and physical hell that he and his family suffered through. Overton was diagnosed by the best medical professionals in the world, who all agreed upon one thing - that he would be an invalid and disabled for the rest of his life. Debilitating pain and suffering would take the place of his previous life and the best he could hope for was to be paralyzed. His law-enforcement career, his role as a husband, father, friend, and son would be forever changed and the person that he had been would cease to exist. That's if he lived at all.

He had been diagnosed with trigeminal neuralgia which is more commonly known as “the suicide disease” because the majority of the people who have the disease kill themselves. Those afflicted cannot live with the pain which is reported to be one of the worst pains known to man. What all of the best medical experts didn't expect was the fact that Woody Overton and his family had absolute faith in Jesus Christ who has the final say in all things! Jesus Held Me is a must-listen for anyone who is struggling with the human side of life or who has ever wondered what happens at the moment when you die.

This is a beautiful testament that lifted me up and brought me closer to Jesus.

I enjoyed listening to this beautiful testament. To remain devoted and true to God despite massive amounts of pain and hopelessness is truly inspirational. Your wife and parents are real heroes. Thank you for sharing.

Gratitude

This book moved me beyond words. As a longtime listener of “Real Life, Real Crime”, Mr. Woody Overton and his wife, Cyndi, as well as his partner, Jim Rathmann, have always had my respect and admiration. Learning the story behind Woody and Cyndi’s lives, has brought my level of understanding as to why I perceived such a profound sense of connection and faith, clear, at last. The tears of compassion and triumph over good, never ceased. Woody’s story will not leave your heart. You will be touched forever by learning the experiences that made the man who investigates these cases. Woody, Cyndi and Woody’s parents are among the most extraordinary people I have ever had the privilege to come to know. This book will reach inside to your very soul, and the words within will remain with you for always. Thank you, Woody. As I said at the start, there are no words... Gratitude always. Peace. 🦋

Honest & Touching

I had to listen after hearing it mentioned in a Podcast episode (can't believe I didn't know about this book sooner). I left the groupie FB page after seeing so many posts across my NewsFeed that weren't edifying to my spirit, but reading this book was super spirit-lifting! It is a great testimony, and I NEVER tire of hearing a person's testimony 💜 Thank you, Mr. Overton, for having the courage to share this in today's times.
