Overview

"My view of success and God's view aren't always the same," says Max Lucado in our resource below.

In ministry it is all too easy to be plagued by fears of failure or inadequacy. Many of these fears stem from flawed expectations or a narrow perspective. This 30-page resource has articles, devotionals, assessments, and more that offer insights and practices to help you gain a more biblical (and more encouraging) outlook.

NOTE: You have permission to make up to 1,000 copies of this resource to be distributed in a church or educational setting.
