Do you worry a lot? Feel inadequate or lonely? Even doubt God? You're not alone. Pastor Groeschel was once a poser in front of his congregation, too. Honestly revealing his own feelings, he shows how to stop pretending, drop the mask, and forge authentic relationships with God and others. Previously titled Confessions of a Pastor. 224 pages, softcover from Multnomah.

Is the REAL you getting lost because the FAKE you is just so annoyingly impressive?
 
 
"Stepping onto the platform to preach that morning, I admitted to myself that I was not a pastor first, but a regular, scared, insecure, everyday guy whose life had been changed by Jesus. And if Jesus really loved me as I was (I knew He did), then why should I go on trying to be someone I wasn’t?"
 
Why DO we fake it so much? Why do we spend so much time trying to please everyone else and make so little effort trying to please God? When Craig Groeschel asked himself those questions, he couldn’t come up with a good answer. So one day he decided to drop the act and start getting real. With that one choice, his life began to change in a big way. And yours can, too.
 
Craig’s passionate, funny, warts-and-all confessions and the lessons he learned will help you find you own path to authentic living and a deeper relationship with God.

Includes study guide for personal or group use.
