Have you ever asked yourself...
“What is the point of my life?”
Through the maze of crises, chaos, elation, and confusion, there is a mystical life-purpose strand that everyone wants to believe in and hold on to. Everyone frantically searches for logic out of the illogical and everyone desperately clings to any fashion of sanity in and through those unexplainable life moments. Everyone.
Howard Rachinski encountered and experienced those same life moments. His accomplishments didn’t immunize him from the pain of tragedy, nor did his faith exempt him from the torment of anguish. Instead, Howard discovered the rhythm of life-purpose. And, he identified 7 Life Seasons that encompass everyone’s entire life journey. The 4 “Calling” Seasons – Preparation, Productivity, Transition, and Impartation – are when God cultivates our mission (our vocation, our sense of life-purpose). The 3 “Character” Seasons – Despair, Famine, and Refreshing – are when God works on our internal nature (including our integrity, honor, moral fiber, discipline, ethics).
PERPETUAL interweaves the heartfelt tapestry of Howard’s personal experience and vulnerability with the foundational assurance of God’s raw and revelatory Truth.
PERPETUAL untangles the hopelessness of despair that suffocates everyone experiencing trauma. You will be enlightened, encouraged, inspired, challenged, and strengthened as you pursue your own personal journey on this side of Eternity.
