Falling Forward is the first nationally published work of Rev. Joe Davis (Snellville, GA) . This book is a unique blend of biography, Bible history, and most of all, inspiration. In this book, Rev. Davis presents a message of hope and second chances that explores the lives of many heroes of the Bible who "fell” in their walk with God, including King David and the apostle Simon Peter. Examine how God restored them and used them for His purposes, despite their past failures and shortcomings. Rev. Davis goes on to share personal insights, including how God turned his own "darkest days" into his “divine destiny.” This book encourages those struggling with guilt over their past to see that God is not finished with them. Whether or not you consider yourself a Christian, this is a book that gives hope to all and reminds us that there is a God that both loves us and has great plans for us.
This was a great read, it is good to know that there are others out there who know what it feels like to make a mistake and be shunned by people in your own congregation. This book is an encouragement to not stop fighting for God and realize that it’s okay to make mistake and move forward as other biblical hero’s in the Faith have.
