Meaningful Messages in Misfortune

Artwork for Things That Enhance Your Years at Seminary

In an age that celebrates instant fame and blue-chip success, Chuck Swindoll provides a pointed reminder that life’s most valuable lessons (especially ministry lessons!) are best learned in the crucible of failure.

Chuck skilfully guides ministry students, faculty, and staff at Dallas Theological Seminary (DTS) in a study of the mysterious and often misunderstood doctrine of God’s sovereignty. Using practical principles and his warm, inimitable style, Chuck shows how even the most adverse times in our lives are used by God to shape our character and prepare us for ministry impact.

Chuck’s first message in this two-part chapel series delivered at DTS provides a bracing tonic for anyone weary and disillusioned by the tantalizing lure of a success-oriented culture.
