What God Thinks When We Fail: Finding Grace and True Success

About this book

What does God think of us when we fail? Does he think Youre a loser. Theres no hope for you. What a wimp! Youre good for nothing! Or does he think something very different? If youve ever lost a job or a relationship let your friends down seen your finances collapse found your ministry crumbling or failed to meet your own ethical standards you might wonder if recovery is possible. Perhaps youve wondered if you can ever repair the damage done to others to yourself and to your relationship with God. Steve Roy has good news for you. He had to face his own failures but his failures also drove him deep into what God thinks about us and success especially in Christian ministry. He searched deeply in Scripture and listened carefully to the stories of others. He found that Gods view of success is very different from ours. And that a biblically grounded view of success and failure challenges our preconceived notions but leads to hopeful renewal that goes beyond what we often ask or think.
