The Background Story of Deepening

In the early morning hours of January 9, 2025, Reginald Saxton sat at his laptop with more thoughts, emotions, and convictions than he could type fast enough to capture. What came out that morning was not a polished book plan. It was rough, emotional, unorganized, and full of clumsy sentences. But it was cathartic…honest.

That morning became the beginning of Deepening.

The words came from a place that had been building for years. Reginald had been walking through one of the most difficult seasons of his life. Marital strain, personal regret, self-doubt, counseling, deep introspection, and a renewed search for truth had forced him to look honestly at himself. He had to face the gap between the man he had been, the man his family needed, and the man his faith was calling him to become.

What began as a private moment of reflection slowly became something larger. The writing turned into a guide he wished had existed when he was younger. A guide for seeing truth more clearly. A guide for making wiser decisions. A guide for preparing for love, marriage, family, and legacy with more intention.

At first, Deepening was written with his own sons and daughters in mind. He wanted to leave them more than advice, memories, or good intentions. He wanted to leave them something they could return to when life became hard, confusing, or costly.

Over time, that private burden became a broader calling. The lessons were too important to keep only inside one family.

Deepening became a paired men’s and women’s workbook-style series built around truth, love, and legacy. It was born from painful wisdom, faith in Christ, honest self-examination, and the belief that a life can still be corrected, rebuilt, and passed forward with purpose.

That is why these books were written.

Not just to say something, but to leave something.
