Who You Think You Are is Not as Important as Who God Says You Are
Many of us wrestle with the gap between our weaknesses and our dreams, between who we are and who God says we are meant to be. We feel unqualified to do Gods work or to live out the calling we imagine. But God has a way of using our weaknesses for good. In fact, God loves unqualified people.
In (Un)Qualified, Pastor Steven Furtick helps you peel back the assumptions youve made about yourself and see yourself as God sees you. Because true peace and confidence come not from worldly perfection but from acceptance: Gods acceptance of you, your acceptance of yourself, and your acceptance of Gods process of change.
This is a book about understanding your identity in light of who God is. Its a book about coming to terms with the good, the bad, and the unmentionable in your life and learning to let God use you. Its about charging into the gap between your present and your hopes and meeting God there. After all, God cant bless who you pretend to be. But he longs to bless who you really are; a flawed and broken person. Good thing for us that God is in the business of using broken people to do big things.
Being Unqualified Is Gods Favorite Qualification
Our culture tells us that the answer to our failures is to fix them. The solution to our weaknesses is to hide them. The secret to our success is to appear as flawless as possible. But Gods qualifying system is different than the worlds. So is his view of our weaknesses, our purpose, and our true selves.
In (Un)Qualified, Steven Furtick explores who God is as the great I AM, and then helps us discover our own identity. Delving into the story of Jacob, Furtick invites us to acknowledge our weaknesses and ask God to work through them.
The truth is, God has created us to be more, to accomplish more, and to love life more than we ever thought possible. But to become who he has called us to be, we must embrace who we are right now. (Un)Qualified equips us to face obstacles and failures without losing a sense of purpose. We can have a thriving sense of hope that God is working in us and through us, not in spite of our weaknesses but often as a direct result of them.

This is such a needed message for today!

L YSA T ER K EURST , president of Proverbs 31 Ministries and New York Times best-selling author

Too often we embrace the fallacy that our successes hang solely on our qualifications. That weand we aloneare the architects of our accomplishments and the framers of our future. Ive been in ministry long enough to realize that God delights in using the most unlikely candidates to accomplish his purposes and that our abilities are always secondary to his calling. In (Un)Qualified Pastor Steven Furtick shows how we can partner and participate with Gods calling for our lives, no matter who we are, where we are, or what we think we are lacking.

B ISHOP T . D . J AKES , founder and senior pastor of The Potters House, Dallas, and New York Times best-selling author

This power-packed book will build your faith, stir your dreams, and help you see yourself as God sees you. If you have ever battled with feeling unqualified, unprepared, or unsure of yourself, pick up this transformative book and be inspired, because our God uses broken people to do big things.

C RAIG G ROESCHEL , senior pastor of Life.Church and author of #Struggles: Following Jesus in a Selfie-Centered World

My friend Steven Furtick is one of the most authentic, passionate people I have ever met. His love for God and for people is nothing short of inspiring. Pastor Stevens book (Un)Qualified is a must-read for every Jesus follower. In it he reveals how our tendency to fixate on our failures and major in our mistakes ultimately short-circuits our calling. But even more than that, he points us to a personal relationship with Jesus, the One who calls us, equips us, and carries us into our destiny.

J UDAH S MITH , lead pastor of The City Church, Seattle, and New York Times best-selling author of Jesus Is _____

All humans strive to be stronger than we really are, better than we really are, and more than we really are. Thats not badit just wont work. And as Steven shows, it leads us even further away from who we truly are and who we want to become. This book will help you get more comfortable in your own skin, stop the striving, and see the truth of how Gods power flows when we can be real.

D R. H ENRY C LOUD , clinical psychologist, acclaimed leadership expert, and best-selling author

In a world distracted and enamored by external qualifications, Pastor Stevens book is a refreshing reminder that God looks at the heart. When we respond to him in humility and faith, his power turns even our weaknesses into strengths. I am so excited about what God will do in your life as you read and experience the principles in this book! It will change the way you see yourself, talk about yourself, and even pray about yourself.

C HRISTINE C AINE , evangelist, author, and founder of The A21 Campaign

In (Un)Qualified my friend Steven Furtick reminds us that Gods qualification system is very different from ours. If youre anything like me, thats a welcome reminder and a big relief! In these inspiring pages Steven speaks bold, helpful truth in a humble and honest way. He encourages us to lose the labels weve placed on ourselves and live instead in the revelation of a God who can even turn our weaknesses into strengths. This brilliant book really resonated with me, and I know it will with you too.

M ATT R EDMAN , worship leader and Grammy-winning songwriter

To watch the ministry of Pastor Steven Furtick is to watch someone living in his grace zone. He is a remarkable communicator, a passionate church builder, and a lover of truth.

This book will encourage and strengthen you as you walk the journey.

B RIAN H OUSTON , founder and global senior pastor of Hillsong Church and author of the international best-selling Live, Love, Lead

In a culture obsessed with perception and perfection, (Un)Qualified is a refreshing reminder that God uses even our weaknesses to our advantage. Steven Furticks latest book is honest, practical, and thoroughly encouraging, and I highly recommend it. It will help you see yourself with more faith and courage than ever before.
