Unlikely Hero
Have you noticed that God likes to use ordinary people in extraordinary ways? Noah, Abraham, Joseph, Gideon, Rahab, Joshua, Ruth, David, and Jesus disciples, just to name a few. The moment a person encounters the living words of God, something happens. Whether you know it or not, you are on a path to something unlikely, something heroic, and something only God can do. God hasn t stopped using ordinary people in extraordinary ways. He hasn t stopped being fantastic now that the Bible is complete. Like our favorite Bible characters and countless others throughout history, step onto the path grounded in humility and begin the adventure of the unlikely hero. Christ has something special in store for those who walk His path, and on that path you start to become the Unlikely Hero the person God intended you to be.

Pastor Duncan challenges you to boldly live out your faith!
January 31, 2016
Don't judge a book by its cover.... Personally I really dislike the cover, it is blood red with apparently a sling and stones on it, but when I saw it I thought: oh some nasty medical thing or maybe an eye patch or some glasses for a cyclops that got melted in a furnace. But I was give it for free so I started to read it.
I turned the crisp white pages and looked at the black text, nice and large and with lots of white space for easy reading. And it is worth reading too. The book is easy to understand and you can hear Pastor Duncan's passion for the topic. The book is challenging. At the end of each chapter it has really good reflection questions and the beginning of a prayer. It does not discus doctrinal things so that should not be a problem for anyone, and as far as I remember I agreed with everything it said! I highly recommend this book. Oh and it also compares people to Han Solo, wookies, Yoda and had a few other star wars references so that made it even better.
Sometimes we have to spend time in the dessert to become, improve or refine who we are destined to be. ~ Duncan Robinson (but slightly reworded)
When you focus on the bright spots in your life they become magnified. If you focus on the negatives, they will also become magnified. ~ Duncan Robinson
God has given us promises to help us endure hard times with real joy ~ Duncan Robinson
