From self-worth to God-Worth
You have infinite, indescribable, unsurpassable worth. Not because of who you are. Not because of what you have done. But, because of who God is, and what God has done for you. The wisdom of this world is foolishness in God’s kingdom. In God’s kingdom you are exalted when you humble yourself; you win when you surrender; you achieve greatness, when you become a servant. You will find worth and value when you stop striving for self-worth and accept the worth and value that you already have in God.
Everybody has a hungry heart. We all need to know that we have worth and value. The American culture has turned that drive into obsession with self. Unfortunately, our obsession with self has not had the desired outcome. Many people feel worse about themselves, instead of better. We boast and brag. We look for ways to show and post our worth. We “fake it till we make it.” We project confidence on the outside, while inside we struggle with doubt, guilt, shame, fear, and regret.
God never intended us to live like this! From self-worth to God-Worth will help you move from self to center. The book looks at five truths. Self-worth is not enough; God created you; God redeems you; God offers you a place of honor in His family; and you have a legacy to live. Each section of the book contains study questions and exercises. It is perfect for individuals, small group studies, or a six-week sermon series for churches.
Take the journey self-worth to God-Worth. When you shift your focus from self to God you will find a peace and purpose that transforms the way you think about God, yourself, and others.

The Heart Behind the Journey
Growing up I always had one nagging thought in the back of my mind; "You will never be good enough." Even as adult, when the professional praise poured in, there was a voice inside that repeated the same refrain: "Not good enough." I felt like I was pretending. I worked longer hours; tried harder; pushed farther. Blessed with an amazing family and a successful career it still wasn't enough. What finally changed my heart and my mind was not a what, but a who. Jesus Christ.
From self-worth to God-Worth has grown out of a single sermon that I wrote over 20 years ago. The truth of the message has transformed my faith and reshaped by life. My hope, and my prayer is that it may change yours as well.
If you are struggling with self-worth. If you look into the mirror and don't like what you see; if you feel like you have been left behind or left out; if you feel like you are an imposter and you don't measure up; or if you have gotten everything you have ever wanted and still feel empty, then this book is for you.

This book is a genuine masterpiece. It ranks in the top five books I have read in the past 10 years. It balances humor, heart, clarity, sources, and credibility that are rare. I have seldom come across a work with this quality of collective narrative.
