Rebuilding Your Broken World [Paperback]

Gordon MacDonald (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: January 7, 2004

What happens when your ideals and desires, plans and strategies, all go awry? From what sources might one find the resolve to begin a rebuilding process? "The fact is," writes Gordon MacDonald in Rebuilding Your Broken World, "the God of the Bible is a God of the rebuilding process. And not enough broken people know that."

No stranger himself to brokenness, Gordon MacDonald draws from personal experience and discusses the likely sources of pain, the humiliation, and the long- and short-range consequences of a broken personal world. And he offers encouraging answers to the questions everyone asks when their worlds fall apart: Is there a way back?

5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding Insights for All Avenues of Christian Life, August 21, 2001

This review is from: Rebuilding Your Broken World (Paperback)

MacDonald offers painfully insightful looks into the lives of "broken world people." I have witnessed many persons of great faith whose personal worlds have crashed down around them, and MacDonald's book offers hope and practical advice for rebuilding their lives. I especially appreciated the chapter devoted to strategies on how to avoid "broken world experiences." Great insights for every Christian!

This review is from: Rebuilding Your Broken World (Hardcover)

This book offers hope and inspiration for those who have been broken....It leads the reader to a clear understanding of God's unbelievable grace. I thank God that Gordon MacDonald and his wife, Gail, are willing to share from their pain and experience. Their writings have been a true gift.
