When we lose a job, wreck a relationship, let our friends down, see our finances collapse, find our ministry crumbling or fail to meet our own standards, we wonder if we can ever repair the damage done to others, to ourselves and to our relationship with God. Steve Roy has had to face his own failures. These drove him deep into what God really thinks about us and success.
