About The Book
A countless number of people around the world go through the pain of rejection, while some drown in it, some others rise above it to become champions of their fate. This book is a contemporary rendition of the leadership lessons gleaned from the life of a biblical character who was dumped by his family and the society because of the circumstances surrounding his birth but later became their leader when his leadership capacities came to their rescue in a life threatening situation. It captures the steps he took to move from being dumped to being celebrated in an easy to apply practical method such that can be replicated by anyone going through same situation or just trying to become better.
These steps are summarized in seven lessons that are buttressed with relatable illustrations and imageries that provoke the reader to action. It further x-rays the mind and the role it plays in fighting the mental warfare that we go through on a daily basis and how to win such battles through mental transformation and embracing the code of purpose.
Africa was spotlighted here with respect to overcoming the “resource curse” by transitioning from dependence on natural resources to dependence on enhanced mental resources which was aptly described here as Africa’s next gold.
Importantly, it underscores the need for Christians to move from the stage of receiving salvation to that of practising mental transformation so that they can serve humanity with the best of their divine endowments to the glory of God and as well dominate the earth.
The critical winning tool of self discovery becomes the central theme of the book as it projects the efficacy of operating from the standpoint of purpose as against being an imitation because the highpoint of Jephthah’s success was anchored on his ability to discover himself and develop his potentials to fit the essence of his assignment.
