“Is there something that you are passionate about but feel you cannot get involved in because, as someone said, “the tyranny of the present is enemy of the future”? So, you live in frustration, working to make the next paycheck, pay next month’s bills, and try not to increase your credit debt too much.
I encourage you to think about the desires lurking in your heart and mind that seem too “impossible” to even articulate, too frightening to consider seriously. You might just discover the passion for life that is God breathed and that would bring you greater fulfillment in life than you ever dreamed.
There is hope for your happiness. As you choose to seek God’s will for your life, you can expect Him to give you the desires of your heart, to discover your passion for life, which will let you enjoy His abundant life (John 10:10). Dare to take my challenge to dream again I did; when it seemed hopeless, God gave me the courage to dream againÑand then watch Him fulfill those dreams. With God’s help, and a big dose of courage, you too can reinvent your life.”

Renowned gospel artist Alvin Slaughter may have spent his life in the church, but that doesn’t mean he’s always found peace there. And he gets why others don’t. Even knowing every song and scripture, Slaughter has struggled with fear, depression, financial failure and marital strife in his life. But today he’s on the other side of the failures and self doubts. He’s come to know that the life of faith is real, and he wants others to learn from his experiences. Now, with his casual storytelling and captivating humor, he uses his own spiritual journey as a backdrop to give readers the tools they need to overcome whatever troubles they are going through to finally get past the challenges of life and reinvent ourselves in faith.
