The Gospel of Falling Down: The Beauty of Failure in an Age of Success

Rate this book
Failure, rather than success, is at the heart of the life of Jesus and his message. He came to liberate us from the "gospel of success". It is not in "climbing the ladder of perfection" that we meet God, but in falling from it. And it is then that we discover the most beautiful spiritual gold.

A super honest expression of one person’s spiritual journey. Delightful and refreshing. Stimulating and inviting.

Loved this book. Have now booked a retreat so I can go through it with more time and fewer distractions and hopefully get the best from it.

Not sure what this book was like before the author became a Druid and made amendments to it and added a new conclusion but is generally a massive let down now.
