Retractions

God loves humility. We all know that. But what He really loves is ongoing humility. This book can help upcoming Christian leaders of all kinds to acknowledge their failures and experience the joy of ongoing humility that accompanies such a life.

The chapters in this book are truth-filled and autobiographical. I'm 64, not 34. They tell my stories, but I am not the hero of them. My hope is that you will agree this book will both greatly challenge this generation of Christian leaders and give them hope for their future-regardless of past failures.

Pure gold.

In a day filled with self- promotion, branding, and celebrity worship, Pat points us to what the Bible declares repeatedly from start to finish-choose and cultivate humility for a lifetime.
