Description
Meet five deeply flawed individuals: Lot, a failed patriarch; Samson, a failed judge; Saul, a failed king; Jonah, a failed prophet; and perhaps one of the most tragic biblical failures of all: Judas, a failed apostle. In this intriguing book, Walter Vogels looks at what the Bible teaches us about the all-too-human experience of failure. By reflecting on these remarkable experiences of biblical failure, we can learn what it is to be more fully human in our relationship with God.
