In His upside-down Kingdom, God promises we can actually find our life by giving it away to others. What is your God-given passion for serving? What is outside of you and bigger than you that demands your time, talent and treasure? I encourage you to ponder that as you read Jeff's thoughts in Wrecked. The result will be life changing ... and you may be surprised to discover that the life changed could be yours.

Jeff Goins wrote my favorite kind of book. First he lived it, then he wrote it. The result is a book that everyone who has ever wondered "Is there more to life than this?" should read.

There is a life that most of us dream of living. Chances are you won't drift into that life.

—Scott McClellan, Director of Echo Hub and Echo Conference

Wrecked is one of those books that had me continually saying 'yes' under my breath. Jeff is a great writer whose engaging storytelling resonated deeply with me at every turn of the page.
