Chad Bird
In our age when the church can too often seem like a poor copy of the world, Chad Bird challenges us to reclaim the astounding originality of our ancient, backward faith. Where the world stresses the importance of success, Bird invites listeners to embrace nine specific failures in the areas of our personal lives, our relationships, and the church. Why? Because what human wisdom deems indispensable is so often an impediment to our spiritual growth, and what it deems insignificant is so often essential to it.
With compelling examples from the Bible and today, Bird paints an enticing picture of the counterintuitive, countercultural life that God wants for us. He helps listeners delight in all of the ways that Jesus turned the world upside down, allowing us to experience true freedom, not from our weaknesses but in the midst of them.

Good. That’s where God wants you to be.
This book speaks of the unabashed failures each of us has or will experience in our everyday lives. The lyric, “I am weak, and He is strong” is a sore understatement as you turn these pages. This book is for the workaholic overachiever, the devoted private school soccer mom, the lone-ranger Christian, the mega-church congregate. This book is for everyone on the margins and all of those in between.
This book made me reevaluate my perceptions on how Jesus views and interacts with his beloved. Christ is waiting on the sidelines of our lives. He is anticipating us to swan dive in our self-righteousness, and belly flop as our flesh takes a beating.
And when that happens, he is waiting for us to call on him. His undying love will always be there to nurture us from the depths of our despair and bring us back to what really matters, Him.
Once you start this book you will not put it down.
