If JESUS is my Song, Why am I so... OUT OF Tune?

A search for balance

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

BALANCE--that subtle but oh so necessary ingredient for success. Whether it be playing a song, swinging a golf club, surfing a wave, raising a child, or living the Christian life, knowing where to draw the fine lines between the good and the not-so-good is a daily challenge. It can mean the difference between failure and success. We search the scriptures for wisdom, for a new tip to bring it all together, only to experientially realize that the Christian life is more than just a formula for success. To our demise and ultimately the beginnings of our Christian maturity, we discover that there are no perfect formulas, only a perfect God and imperfect man. And even though Jesus Christ is our supernatural link, the fine lines between His way and ours can be difficult to see. For instance, last week were you bold or prideful? Humble or timid? Cautious or fearful? Faithful or foolhardy? So many fine lines; so easy to fool ourselves. Oft unaware, we sing our heartfelt rendition of the Perfect Song...and then wonder why there isn't an encore.

Autorenporträt

Mike Harris grew up in Australia. He earned a bachelor's in engineering, with a focus on designing technology, at the University of Queensland. He has lived and worked in many places since, as a project engineer, community worker, technology trainer, and vocational education manager, though his finest achievements are his two sons who run the best café in Adelaide. A health scare brought about many radical changes in his life. One of them was becoming a storyteller. 'The Dream Walker' is his first written story.
