This shift in perspective will move you from running from trouble into a place of embracing what God is doing, regardless of circumstance.

They will help you stand in these leaders' shoes, see through their eyes, and learn the incredible lessons they teach.

No pastor should do it alone. Stories of Sifted provides inspiration and encouragement for the journey."-- Rick Warren, Saddleback Church"I'm so encouraged that these real-world stories of increased surrender during times of trouble are now available in book form. They will challenge and inspire you in the real work of church planting!"-- Ed Stetzer, Executive Director, Billy Graham Center at Wheaton College"It's no fun being sifted. But it's absolutely essential. From the first pages of the Bible on, the people God has used for His glory have all been sifted. It's His way of separating the wheat from the chaff.
