Wrecked : when a broken world slams into your comfortable life / [print] Jeff Goins ; foreword by Michael Hyatt. - Chicago : Moody Publishers, (c)2012. - 169 pages ; 21 cm
You must get wrecked -- You won't find yourself where you're looking -- Help wanted: come and die -- How I was wrecked -- From wrecked to committed -- Fruit of commitment -- When you have to walk away -- Get a job -- Going where you don't want to go -- Wrecking others.
This book is about the life we are afraid to live. It's about radical sacrifice and selfless service--how we find purpose in the midst of pain. It's a look at how we discover fulfillment in the least likely of places. It's about living like we mean it. It's a guide to growing up and giving your life away, helping you live in the tension between the next adventure and the daily mundane. This book is for us--a generation intent on pursuing our life's work in a way that leaves us without regrets. Author Jeff Goins shares his own experience of struggling as a missionary and 20-something who understands the call to live radically while dealing with the everyday responsibilities of life. This is a manifesto for a generation dissatisfied with the status quo and wanting to make a difference.
