Excerpt, When Success Isn’t Enough: God’s standards and expectations contradict and challenge the commonly accepted standards and values of the world. They turn the world’s standards upside down and inside out…In addition, the world’s currency has no value in God’s economy.

Another excerpt from When Success Isn’t Enough, soon to be released.

“When I allowed God to be in the driver’s seat of my life, I experienced the peace and joy that can come only from God. When I put myself back in the driver’s seat of my life, I was looking for that peace and joy to come from human achievements and human relationships. What I received were the peace and joy that the world gives. Having experienced both scenarios, I can tell you that the peace and joy that the world gives are hollow compared to the peace and joy that God gives.”

 

My new book, When Success Isn’t Enough, purpose is plenty will be available in a month or so. Excerpt: “‘I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly’” (John 10:10 RSV). Jesus spoke these words after he had given sight to a man who had been born blind…The abundance that Jesus referred to is not financial or material abundance. It is an abundance of life. He wants us to live a life in which we are happy, fulfilled, energized, and passionate.

I have a new book, currently in the process of being published. Title: When Success Isn’t Enough, purpose is plenty. Excerpt:

If one is to freely choose his or her definition of success, and then act on it, one has to embrace the belief that he or she has a choice; that he or she is in charge of their life and can set the direction or course of their life. If one does not embrace this belief, then he or she gives that choice away, allowing others to chart the course of their life… Purpose is radically different from success. The most significant difference is the starting point. When developing our definition of success, the starting point is ourselves. When attempting to discern our purpose, the starting point is God.

I have been in hibernating/writing mode for a good part of the winter. I am working on a new manuscript about the differences between the world’s view of success and God’s view of success. The title will be When Success Isn’t Enough, Purpose is Plenty. Excerpt:

Success is our choice; purpose is God’s choice.

Though we may choose our definition of success and choose how to measure our success, we do not choose our purpose. God chooses our purpose and then calls us to it. God created each of us for a specific purpose and he designed us, thereby equipping us, to fulfill that purpose. Though we don’t choose our purpose, we do choose whether to answer God’s call and fulfill the purpose he assigned to us.
