How to Be a Moon, book and built-in study guide, draws analogies from the moon to explain how we're meant to live as followers of God. We've been called out of darkness to bring light and hope to a broken world. But along the way, we confuse the light we're shining as an indicator of our worth. We get tripped up by insecurity and comparison, wondering if we really matter to God or the world we're serving. But a moon offers a countercultural way to love God and others. To be a moon is to radically redefine our identity apart from achievement or comparison. Our job isn't to prove anything to God, but to accept the proof of His love and worth for us. Our mission isn't to accomplish more, but to allow more of God to be reflected in us. Only then can He use us to powerfully illuminate our generation and change the world. I invite you on a journey to: - Rest in God's presence instead of striving for significance. -Embrace God as a collaborator instead of a critic. -Ditch the traps of envy and pride and enjoy investing in others. -Walk boldly into the plans God designed you for. Are you ready to be a moon?
