There are people in every congregation who were called, gifted, and anointed, and who are now sitting in the back row convinced they are disqualified. Sometimes because of something they did. More often because of something that was done to them, or said about them, or decided about them in a conversation they were never part of.
This book is about getting back up.
What this book is
Dr. India White writes as somebody who wore the cloak of shame for years and finally got it off. The ninth of ten children in a low-income home. A childhood of rejection. Years of serving faithfully while carrying a weight nobody could see. Forty-day fasts, conference after conference, and still no ability to approach the throne room of God.
And then, after a fall, the sentence that changed everything: "I said I will never leave thee."
This is not a book about avoiding mistakes. It is a book about the fact that God has never once revoked a calling because of a fall.
Inside
26 chapters across five parts, moving from what God already gave you, through how the cloak gets fastened, to walking in the anointing again
A prayer at the end of every chapter, written to be prayed aloud
Two pages of Reflection and Notes in every chapter, with guided questions and ruled space to write
King James scripture throughout, with three passages to carry from each chapter
A Word to Pastors and Leaders and A Word to Pastors' Wives
Practical steps for overcoming shame that came from your own choices, from what was done to you, from a leader, from a rumor, or from a long season of silence
The people you will meet
Joseph, stripped of his coat before he was thrown in the pit, whose gift went into the pit with him. David, who planned his sin and was still called a man after God's own heart. Peter, who denied Christ with cursing and was handed the sheep weeks later, beside a fire Jesus built on purpose. Uzziah, who already had an anointing and reached for one that was not his. The woman in John 8, who was told to go, not to sit.
Who this is for
The one who serves and never speaks. The one whose worship is a little too much for the room. The one whose situation everybody knows about and nobody has asked about. Leaders who want to see who is sitting in front of them. And anyone who has quietly concluded that the calling on their life expired the day they failed.
It did not.
