Dr. Riggs takes a closer look at the ministry of Jesus on earth where he faced many challenges, people who misunderstood Him, and the perception of a failed ministry. Jesus stood up to the challenges and understood His identity was wrapped up in His relationship with His Father. Such knowledge enabled Jesus to perform for an audience of One. Until you come to the place where you are at peace with performing for an audience of One, you will either focus on applause or failure. Allow God's plan for your ministry to become your plan and find a fresh hope and true fulfillment. This work shares a renewed sense of confidence in trusting God's sovereignty. As the reader is walked through situations in the life of Jesus that do not come across as success in ministry, the full picture gives a clear understanding of God's power over circumstances. Dr. Riggs makes it easy to grasp the personal application taught through the ministry of Jesus. This book is a tool to encourage any leader discouraged by past failures. Discussion questions are provided at the end of each chapter for personal reflection or group study.
