Présentation de l'éditeur

Os Hillman is a modern - day biblical Joseph who experienced his own decade - long journey from the pit of despair to the pinnacle of success in life and in the workplace. Here, he explains how God uses adversity to show His power and purpose. Os identifies seven reasons people experience adversity, and the three stages of response - including practical ways to cope when circumstances veer out of control. You'll see why some people become victims while others become victors. Then, you'll discover hope and inspiration in the stories of others who have survived difficult experiences and rose to positions of influence. Like a well - thrown life preserver, Hillman gives you the wisdom you need to see your negative experiences as God - given positive opportunities.
