HOLY Discontent

Fueling the Fire That Ignites Personal Vision! It can change you–and the world around you–for good.

What is the one aspect of this broken world that when you see it, touch it, or get near it, you just can't stand? What reality is so troubling that it thrusts you off the couch and into action? This is what Bill Hybels refers to as a HOLY DISCONTENT: a personal "firestorm of frustration" that, although sparked by that which is terribly wrong, can catalyze fierce determination to set things right. It is often during these eye-opening, heart-hungering moments of engagement when you will hear God whisper, "I feel the exact same way about this situation. Now, let's go solve it together!"

Hybels invites you to consider the dramatic impact your life will have when you willingly convert the frustration of your holy discontent into fuel for changing the world. Using examples from the Bible, his own life, and the compelling experiences of others. Hybels shows how you can:

•find and feed your personal area of holy discontent

•fight for it, even when things get risky

•follow it when it takes a mid-course turn

Eradicating AIDS. Fighting extreme poverty. Reigning love-starved marriages. Embracing marginalized people groups. Feeding those who lack food. Speaking words of encouragement to those who need it most. Learn to lean into your hoy discontent so that this generation can benefit mightily from your bold, bright contribution.
