Flourishing people are strong and weak. Two common temptations lure
us away from abundant living?withdrawing into safety or grasping
for power. True flourishing, says Andy Crouch, travels down an
unexpected path?being both strong and weak. We see this unlikely
mixture in the best leaders?people who use their authority for the
benefit of others, while also showing extraordinary willingness to
face and embrace suffering. We see it in Jesus, who wielded
tremendous power yet also exposed himself to hunger, ridicule,
torture and death. Rather than being opposites, strength and
weakness are actually meant to be combined in every human life and
community. Only when they come together do we find the flourishing
for which we were made. With the characteristic insight, memorable
stories and hopeful realism he is known for, Andy Crouch shows us
how to walk this path so that the image of God can shine through
us. Not just for our own good, but for the sake of others. If you
want to become the kind of person whose influence leads to healthy
communities, someone with the strength to be compassionate and
generous, this is the book for you. Regardless of your stage or
role in life, whether or not you have a position of leadership,
here is a way to love and risk so that we all, even the most
vulnerable, can flourish.
