Publisher's Synopsis
In today's world, where achievements, wealth, skill, success, and fame are the orientations that everyone seems to possess, it's easy to dismiss, deprecate, despise, or look down on those who don't quite 'measure up' by certain standards. The homeless, the addicts, the criminals, the disabled, the uneducated-anyone who, according to our standards, seems not to be 'good enough'-are the people we often ignore, disdain, or even scorn. But in God's eyes, every human being has inherent value and dignity, regardless of their station in life. 'In From Trash to Treasure, ' you will see how we can reflect God's love and intention by realizing that no one is useless, no one lacks purpose, and no one is truly empty in life.
'From Trash to Treasure' is a timely revelation from God to our current generation. It is a much-needed message for the church, the school, the family, and society at large. It is a call for us to move beyond judgment and see others as God sees them: as precious creations worthy of compassion, love, and care; and worthy of our faith in them. As you read, open up your heart and let God show you the diamonds in people. I see a diamond in the rock.
