On The Other Side Of Disappointment (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781545651360)

Rick Brewster has lived and worked internationally facilitating the development of leaders, and church ministries. When unexpectedly and abruptly, a thirty- year career ended, he struggled to find purpose. A few years later his wife passed away due to cancer, which added another level of loss and distress. When his life bottomed out, he searched for answers: how do you re-engage in life when you've been taken back to zero? How do you rediscover purpose after your world has collapsed? 'On The Other Side Of Disappointment' is a practical look at the Scripture to reveal fears, failures and comebacks. Answers may not always come when we want them, and not always in ways we recognize. But our God walks with us through the dark places, silent at times, but present. Meeting a wonderful woman whose ministry and professional career had a very similar experience, enabled him to put perspective to the past. With faith intact, he writes to encourage those who are at a point of wrestling with their most difficult questions, addressing: - What we go through is transitional, not terminal. - Letting go of the past enables us to embrace a bigger future. - Your voice may have been muffled, but it is not muted. Rick and his wife now live in Oklahoma with their dog, Sherlock. They have three married children and soon to be six grandchildren.
