Synopsis

How would you describe your walk with God? Fresh and passionate? Vibrant and full of life? Stagnant? Nonexistent? No matter where you are on your walk, that's exactly where God promises to meet you--even if it's messy.

Sharing his own story of spiritual drifting, popular online pastor Rashawn Copeland encourages you to accept yourself as a glorious work in progress, a beloved child in whom God delights, a person on the brink of revival. Anchoring everything in Scripture, he shows you how to start your walk with God now, even in the midst of your mess. Even in the midst of addiction, doubt, depression, fear, and years spent running from God, he shows it is possible to

- find God's love and acceptance 
- develop strong character
- choose to rejoice
- move out of your mess
- see life through God's eyes
- be a loving person in a hateful world
- never settle for less than God's best
- and more

The change you long to see in the world starts in your own heart. Thankfully, that's exactly where God is waiting for you.
