The truth of the matter is your blessings will not come from nice and elegant places in life. Rather, they will come out of your pains and obstacles. Pastor Van I. Sharpe has written this insightful book full of spiritual truths to empower you to survive and enjoy your journey. The nuggets in this book will help you look for the blessings in a place called "rejection." You will no longer see yourself as strange or an outcast. There will be a shift in your ability to perform exploits in the kingdom of God. You will get what's yours from places others dare to go! Drs. Van and Resunester Sharpe are founders and pastors of the Newness of Life Christian Center currently located in Tarboro, N.C. They are the proud parents of one daughter, Vannneika Aireesh Sharpe. They are producers of the Newness of Life Christian Center radio program aired on several radio stations and the God is Able television program. They are also the founders of "Pastors In Covenant" which consists of pastors and their wives who are determined to stay encouraged and fulfill their calling with joy. Drs. Van and Resunester Sharpe have also released a dynamic praise and worship music project called "Determined." Pastor Van has written four other books entitled: How To Overpower Discouragement, Seeking God Makes You Prosper, Sheep Taming Wolves, and Don't Lose Yours Trying To Save Their's. His desire is to strengthen the brethren and press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.
