Hang in there. In seasons of brokenness, God has a graceful way of not tossing us aside, but making us whole again, turning our most desperate situations into defining moments. It happens throughout the Bible, and maybe it’s happening to you or someone close right now.What could be good about being broken? Michael Catt, innovative pastor and executive producer of hit films Facing the Giants and Fireproof, finds treasure at rock bottom in The Power of Desperation, a book for anyone who has ever cried out for God’s strength in life’s moments of absolute weakness:“Maybe you are feeling alone, immersed in a time of darkness. I’ve got good news: God is on the verge of getting you alone with Him, so He can get the ‘you’ out of you and fill you with Himself.”Through biblical and modern stories of incomplete people whose only path to victory is through total surrender, Catt introduces yet another breakthrough concept worthy of widespread personal application. Discover the power of desperation.
