Blueprint in Bedlam: God’s Plan Amid the Chaos
Do you believe that everything matters… including, and especially, you? We live in a world that tells us everything is a cosmic accident and nothing has ultimate meaning. But God's Word says otherwise. The Bible tells us God made everyone and everything with thoughtful care, and He has a master plan for all of it. In Blueprint in God's Plan Amid the Chaos, author and pastor Kent DelHousaye makes a compelling case that the most foundational chapters in the Bible are the first three chapters of Genesis, for the simple reason that they tell us who and why we are. Within the context of the creation story, each of us can discover meaning and significance for even the smallest details of our lives. DelHousaye directs us to the genesis-the beginning-where we are introduced to God's intentions, or blueprints, for the world. He shows us where things went wrong. And he illuminates God's plans to heal and restore everything to his original design. Do you long to wrap your mind and heart around the truth about God's divine plan for the world and everything in it? Do you wonder what God expects for your life, your family, your friends, your vocation, and your future? It's time to reclaim the foundational truth that has been widely discarded. You are made in the image of God. You have tremendous value. And you exist for a divinely appointed purpose.

Unrolls "God's blueprint" for many areas of our lives. As Kent notes, "Our flourishing as human beings has everything to do with simply sticking to God's plan." Not only is "God's way is best," but it also "brings the most blessing."
Part worldview, part apologetic, part self-help. Not sure I agreed with his take on the Sabbath command no longer being binding today (although he does attempt to find middle ground by conceding that the "Sabbath principle" is still binding today). I also wish he didn't hedge on essential biblical truths like young earth creationism. But overall, very helpful. Would recommend for newer Christians—especially the portions on complementarianism. Easy to read, accessible, and dripping with gospel hope.
Read with our IFPC team for discussion during our team lunches.
