(PREORDER) Speaking of Broken Glass by Jordan Sleed
What good does it do to gain the world if you lose your soul in the process?
Well-intentioned as you may be, what if the spirit in which you are pursuing fruitfulness has already proven it cannot lead you to the abundant life you desperately desire?
As a recovering perfectionist, Jordan Sleed continues to poetically wrestle with these questions. Setting aside well-worn definitions of success, and standing baffled in the presence of a God who delights in the impractical, the poet invites us to “wastefully” shatter our alabaster jars and enter that which truly fulfills: communion with God. Set aside your measurements and striving. In these pages, you will overhear internal arguments, witness divine friendship, and find rest in the reality that God is after our hearts, not our success.
The poetic truths in Speaking of Broken Glass will bind your heart and focus your faith on Jesus and the gospel, helping you shatter your alabaster jars in worship of Jesus. Jordan's work is an artful gift to every Christian searching for authenticity in their discipleship.
