Epic Fail

The Bible records stories of men and women who were both heroes and zeroes. We can learn from both. Welcome to a journey through the wisdom and life lessons offered in the stories of the Bible's greatest failures! Why would our loving God choose to forever record the stories of men and women whose lives collapsed in sin and shame? Why share biographies of people like Jezebel and Judas, whose lives didn't have happy endings? Perhaps the Lord recognized that their stories could powerfully inform and shape us. Their loss can become our gain. EPIC FAIL: GAINING WISDOM FROM FAILURES OF BIBLICAL PROPORTION is God's invitation to learn and grow from the great collapses of the Bible. While all of us will experience the pain and shame of failure, sometimes we have to fail in order to succeed. As any successful scientist, entrepreneur, parent, or coach can attest, the road to success is paved with setbacks. Every stumble is a chance to reevaluate, learn, reinvent, adapt, and mature. Each setback is an opportunity to make course corrections. This book shows that though we are human and we are destined to fail, with God's help and an openness to learn we can resolve to fail forward.
