About this listen

When it comes to our personal well-being, success is often more dangerous than failure. As we try to fulfill others' expectations, we deplete our time, energy, and enthusiasm, and end up feeling wrung out or burned out, sometimes even flaming out in spectacular ways. It may feel like the solution is just to quit-our jobs, our passions, our ministries-but there is a way to pour into others and take care of ourselves.

Sharing the dramatic, true, and untold story behind the creation of Convoy of Hope, Hal Donaldson and his daughter Lindsay Donaldson-Kring pull back the curtain on Hal's journey to greater mental, physical, and spiritual health amid the all-engrossing task of starting and sustaining a ministry. They reveal the toll ministry and compassion work can take on both individuals and families, then point toward healing and wholeness.

Insightful and encouraging, this book offers practical, real-world solutions to persistent problems associated with being the hands and feet of Jesus in a hurting world.

A Book For Everyone!

As a resident of Springfield, Missouri, I have been aware of Convoy Of Hope for many years. I’ve seen their trucks, I’ve heard about them helping during major disasters around the United States.

Sadly, I didn’t really learn about them until about five years ago. That’s when I’m began to meet a number of their leaders and really learn about their impact not just here in the United States, but all over the world.

Consider these staggering numbers. Convoy Of Hope has distributed more than $2.5 billion worth of food and supplies to more than 200 million people. And they currently feed more than 570,000 children every single day!

Those numbers don’t seem real! But they are. And it would sure be easy to be prideful over those numbers. All I have ever seen from Hal and Doree Donaldson and the entire Convoy family is humility. They are the first ones to point towards God as the source for anything that happens.

I am 100% convinced this book will help each and every person who reads it. The hard lessons Hal and Lindsay share are needed now more than ever.

I love the final paragraph in the book.

God alone deserves the praise for what he achieves through Convoy of Hope. Jesus is our trail guide, and we are thankful to be part of an army of compassion he is working through to transform lives and change the course of nations. And, if ever the world needed hope, it needs it now. May the love of Jesus continue to flow through you to a hurting world.

I loved it

My favorite quote from the book was "God hadn’t called me to be a martyr but I had been living like one." This book is amazing and I would highly recommend to anyone who is trying to live a God-centered, outward-focused life.

Don’t waste your audible credit

Uninspired. Boring. Corporate tone with a hint of prosperity gospel. The author has a lot of unresolved childhood drama and attempts to make various checklists from Scripture and Christian counselors to help himself and others. Thats fine but there is zero originality or authenticity. With that said, praise the LORD for using the author to help the poor and suffering.
