Publisher's Description

"Success is defined by a continuing desire to be the person God called you to be and to achieve those goals that God helps you to set," says Charles Stanley. In Success God's Way, Stanley teaches God's principles for success, including ten steps to help you reach God's goals in your life, and what to do about the seven success blockers that entangle believers. "Dr. Stanley has defined success in a timeless manner―knowing and doing the will of God. When a person knows Christ personally and consistently obeys the principles of Scripture, he is prepared for success God's way." ―Franklin Graham, Chairman and CEO, Samaritan's Purse; CEO, Billy Graham evangelistic Association "In a society that increasingly judges the success of individuals by the clothes they wear, the car they drive, the club they belong to, or the career they choose, the church desperately needs to reaffirm biblical standards. Once again, Dr. Stanley has brought clear focus to a timely issue. Success God's Way challenges readers to reexamine whether or not they are sacrificing genuine, lasting success on the altar of a worldly, temporary counterfeit and therefore sesttling for a lot less than what God wants to give them." ―Anne Graham Lotz, International Bible Teacher and Bestselling Author "In an age when our thinking is skewed, our zeal is waning, and our desire for excellence is deadened by apathetic self-centeredness, this book presents many biblical insights that challenge us to hear God's Word to Joshua to meditate on God's Word and be strong and courageous so we can have success." ―Kay Arthur, Precept Ministries International

“Because of my involvement in baseball, and the rewards that come with it, some people are convinced I’ve got it made. But I have learned through painful experience that success is so much more than winning a championship or making a big sale. Dr. Charles Stanley is right: real success is a process. This powerful book will help you understand and achieve real, ongoing success—Success God’s Way!”

Johnny L. Oates

“At last! Answers to questions every committed Christian asks about God’s desires for His children. Dr. Stanley writes about success for the Christian clearly and concisely in his characteristic way of presenting biblical principles for practical, everyday life application.”

Zig Ziglar

“In an age where men and women seem driven to succeed in business, academics, and even spiritual pursuits, Charles Stanley defines success from God’s perspective. In the clear, well researched style he is noted for, Dr. Stanley helps us take stock and reformulate our own goals and aspirations. Jeremiah 29 clearly says that God has a plan for our lives. Success God’s Way helps us figure out how to get there from here. Practical yet inspiring, the life lessons in this book keep drawing us right into the father-heart of God.”

Terry Meeuwsen

“This book gives such inspirational messages to hang in there when the road is tough, to persist when it seems we want to quit, and Dr. Stanley’s ideas for pursuing God’s goals for our lives encourage us to use our time constructively. Dr. Stanley shows how to adapt these principles for our lives in an exciting way. I think this book has a ‘charm’ about it that makes each page come alive with fresh ways to enhance our paths.”

Barbara Johnson
