Broken Cisterns-Episode 1-Full Book Overview
Welcome to the Broken Cisterns Podcast on Senetru Radio — a chapter-by-chapter journey through Broken Cisterns: From New Age to New Covenant, by Susannah LaPoint and Senetru.
Episode 1 | Full Book Overview
Before the content of this book is presented, its nature must be understood. This is not a self-help book. It is not a recovery memoir. It is a firsthand account of what happens when a woman stops filling herself from broken sources — and what she finds when she finally stops.
Introduction
This is not a book about spiritual searching. It is the account of a woman who searched — through church, through self-help, through New Age spirituality, through every constructed version of wholeness available — and found that none of it held. Susannah LaPoint writes from the other side of what she calls the "Divine Interruption" — an uninvited, unnegotiable encounter in January of 2025 that dismantled forty-five years of carefully managed existence in less than twenty-four hours. Broken Cisterns is the record of what that cost, what it revealed, and what was found on the other side of the hardest thing she has ever done. It is written for the woman who already knows something is wrong — who has been quietly, skillfully managing that knowing for years — and who is standing at the edge of something true.
The Foundation
This section, included at the beginning of all Senetru books, establishes the linguistic and historical ground on which everything else is built. Language determines understanding. When words drift from their original meaning — and they have, across thousands of years and multiple translations — the conclusions built on those words drift with them. The Foundation examines how words like love, faith, grace, and Logos were used in their original Hebrew and Greek contexts, and how the distance between those meanings and the English words we now read has altered what Scripture actually says. This is not an academic exercise. It is a disruptive one.
What to Expect in This Series
In the episodes that follow, we will go chapter by chapter through Broken Cisterns — from the visceral wrongness Susannah felt inside the institution as a child, to the decades she spent trying to fill herself from every available source, to the night everything changed, to the New Covenant she found on the other side. We will walk through self-rule, surrender, agapē, the wilderness, faith and trust, God's intended order for family, and what it means to live as someone who is no longer of this world. Each episode will go deep into the Scripture, the testimony, and what it looks like — in a real woman's real life — to stop drawing from broken cisterns and return to the One True Source.
"For My people have committed two evils: they have forsaken Me, the fountain of living waters, and hewn themselves cisterns — broken cisterns that can hold no water." — Jeremiah 2:13
📘 Broken Cisterns: From New Age to New Covenant, Return to Me: Restoring the Hearts of the Children to the Father, A Brood of Vipers: The History of Corruption in the Institutional Church, Carry the Light: The End of Self-Rule, The False Door, and Unmasking the Beast, along with the Senetru Answers research tool, are available at www.senetru.com
