"I know someone who struggles with this..." Yeah right! The beginning story was worth it for me! Anyone in ministry knows it is easy to evaluate yourself based on what you see and can quantify, and feel like a failure when what you quantify fits on one hand. There seems to be a lurking pragmatism in the thinking of many today that if you're faithful, God bless your ministry; if you're not fruitful, something is wrong; if people aren't getting saved, something is wrong.
This book was a lifesaver to me at a time I was pretty down. "Success is not numbers" is not just something the losers say to encourage themselves! Radical faithfulness to God and seeking radically to please him is truly the standard of success. Let the chips fall where they may.
