Description
Feeling like you've blown it Reached the point of no return That your life hasn't gone as planned If so, you are not alone. We all know what it feels like to have life disappoint us and not work out as we'd hoped. We all know what it's like to long for something different, something better, and something more. Drawing on his own experiences and pivotal Bible stories, author Louie Giglio shows how God is all about comebacks. Samson had blown it repeatedly; nevertheless, he experiences tremendous triumph at the end of his life. The prodigal son, as Jesus describes him, returns home in disgrace only to be welcomed by his father with open arms-no questions asked. The list goes on: Joseph, Moses and Peter all experienced comebacks. Jesus himself performed the greatest comeback of all by rising from the dead. God is in the business of giving fresh starts to people. He gives hope to the hopeless. Direction to the directionless. Help to those who need help. God is always good, all the time, and His plans will always prevail, even when our plans don't. He already knows what the solutions are. No matter what kind of disappointment or grief or pain or trouble or heartache we encounter, God always offers a new beginning, a change of heart, and a powerful spiritual turnaround. God offers the way forward, and his pathways are always good. This six-session video study (DVD/digital video sold separately) proves God can use our mess and still make a masterpiece-and that our current circumstances will not get the final say in our lives. Sessions include: A Deeper Kind of Comeback Story Paradise in a Garbage Dump When Dreams Are Dashed Never Too Late Get Up Jesus Is Enough Designed for use with The Comeback Video Study (sold separately).
