The author draws on his journey to find his own path, his own footing, in a world where his father had already made a significant mark. He fought to avoid the pitfalls of trying to fill another man's shoes and the fear of not living up to his potential. Schuller offers six categories of evidence--God's existence, God's ability, God's love, God's creation, God's household, and God's image--as encouragement to believe that God has given you all the tools necessary for your to achieve and live your dreams. Robert Anthony Schuller (born October 7, 1954) is an American author, televangelist and pastor. He is the only son of Crystal Cathedral founders Robert H. Schuller and Arvella Schuller. He was formerly a minister on the Hour of Power weekly television program broadcast from the Crystal Cathedral in Orange County, California. He appeared almost every week from 1976. He became the senior pastor in 2006 but, according to the Hour of Power website, he resigned in 2008. He continues his ministry with Robert Schuller Ministries. God had a specific reason when he formed us to be individuals, unique creations that each fulfill a special purpose. Everything we are, have been, and will be is all part of a grand plan of God's love. Everything helps to shape us into the people God wants us to be and where we find our inner satisfaction, joy, and meaning. Derived from a Publishers Weekly article: As the son of Robert H. Schuller, founding pastor of the Crystal Cathedral megachurch in California and host of The Hour of Power television broadcast, Schuller grew up knowing that he would have big shoes to fill. Although he is inheriting the ministry reins, Schuller's goal has been to do so in his own way, and in this book he hopes to inspire others to fulfill their God-given potential and pursue their dreams. Schuller encourages readers that God is with them on their journey, that bad things that happen will be a good part of God's overall plan, and that God has a unique purpose for everyone. There is a lot of scripture throughout, together by numerous stories and analogies. Tinges of prosperity gospel teaching and undercurrents of psychology lead to advice. Likely to have a built-in audience and has a coveted foreword from Dr. Phil. Condition: Very good / Very good.
