Synopsis

Happiness and purpose—we work ceaselessly for them, but what does God have to say about our efforts? Through engaging and encouraging stories about serving the people of Uganda, Unexpected Joy challenges us to move beyond achievement and self-reliance and instead embrace a life of sincere obedience and joy. With wisdom and wit, author Kelly C. Miller balances foundational Christian doctrine with real-life experiences. Through the lens of his personal story—and all the hurts and hopes along the way—you will discover how the joy God offers is not a future prize to be earned but a gift to be received right now. As you embark on a whirlwind journey of God’s amazing grace, you can traverse the brokenness of the world in the power of the Holy Spirit. Within this book, you’ll find an abundance of insights for relying upon and resting in God’s power, as you walk in His calling for your life. Kelly’s reflections will serve as blessed reminders that the Lord is at work in your life and that He is infinitely better than anything this world can offer!
