Book Takeaway:God's abundant mercy assures us a wonderful life regardless of our circumstances or where we call home. Why the author wrote this book:A lot of folks think they can only serve God in the mission field or in some other full-time ministry. I wanted to show that God's purposes are equally fulfilled by simply living the abundant life He has designed for us, right in our own backyards. |
