Wouldn’t you love to truly live ” above ” life’s storms? Storms are inevitable, so how do we infact rise above some of the truly hard circumstances and gut wrenching stuff that life throws our way??

 

Kirk Franklin’s newest book: The Blueprint: A Plan for Living Above Life’s Storms speaks on this subject. Kirk didn’t grow up in the easiest of ways, from his father abandoning his family, his mother telling him he was unwanted and therefore left him to be adopted at age four ; his sister became a crack addict ; he never saw a black man faithful in is marriage, and the list goes on. Despite his shaky foundation he found strength and success through his life’s architect- God.

God truly holds the ” Blueprint ” of our lives is what this book shouts over and over again. Knowing all of this helps us depend on the architect of our lives. Kirk learned that through hardships ( that are necessary ) that propelled and moved him into being something greater. Who would of thought that now he’s the bestselling gospel musician in history , as well as devoted husband and loving father.

The Blueprint is a transparent approach into talking about some hard issues- from marriage to polotics to sex and religion. ” Not from a Princeton, mainline, protestant, evangelical or liberal veiwpoint, but from a 2010 Christian moderate with swag. ” – Kirk Franklin

In this book I found that it’s not a step program , but it’s rather a lifelong journey. With Kirk’s inspiration you’ll find in this book it pushes you on to something greater than your current hardship, and that is excatly what this book is- It shows you hardships, God as our architect, and what we can do about following God’s Blueprint and not the Blueprint of our hardships and hurts.

Just when you thought Kirk Franklin was inspiring enough ,he comes out with this!

Pick up The Blueprint and be inspired!
