Book Synopsis
How do you fix a broken story?In this fallen world, life is often not how we thought it would be. Jobs vanish, relationships crumble, health fails. How do we find the hope to persevere?We can make sense of our broken stories by seeing them in the context of a larger and greater story. Kenneth Boa shows how God can transform our lives with an eternal perspective, when we live with the end in mind. In light of eternity, our struggles are temporary and our plot twists are not fatal. We are hard-wired by God with eternity in our hearts, and that longing gives us purpose, blesses others and helps us make a lasting mark on the world.Knowing our future is crucial to living our present. When we see our stories within his greater story, we learn to live with a heavenly perspective and follow it all the way home.
Review Quotes
"Relevant, thought provoking and creatively expressed in ways that lead us into new avenues of thinking about old and important issues. In Rewriting Your Broken Story, Boa reminds us that how we ask and answer life's biggest questions will determine the quality of our day-to-day lives here on earth from a spiritual perspective. Rewriting Your Broken Story helps us break through the paradigms that hold us prisoner and prevent us from seeing life the way it really is."
--Pat MacMillan, president, Triaxia Partners"Some books inform. Others inspire. This one does both, but with a goal that few books reach. Ken's words have the potential to transform and to lift readers into the larger and eternal story of God. Rewriting Your Broken Story helped me to better see my smaller story as an opportunity to tell God's larger story by how I live."
--Larry Crabb, founder and president, NewWay Ministries"Suffering hits us like nothing else in life. We find ourselves crying out why or thinking we don't deserve it. We may rail at God and what we feel is the unfairness of life or the absence of God's care, but unless we can reframe our trials in light of a good, loving and holy God, our trials will make us bitter. This book is a tonic for the soul and full of solid biblical insight. Few are as qualified, compassionate or practical as Ken in terms of offering good spiritual counsel. I commend this book for your journey."
