Redeeming Your Goals: 7 Biblical Principles for Achieving Your Goals with Christlike Confidence, Consistency, and Character

The bestselling author of Redeeming Your Time offers a gospel-centric, ultra-practical playbook for pursuing your goals with, like, and for God.

“An insanely practical guide for achieving impossible goals.”—Dr. Benjamin Hardy, New York Times bestselling author

If you are unsure how to discern if your goals are aligned with God’s will, can’t figure out how to progress in your goals while swamped at work and home, or feel discouraged by goals you haven’t achieved, you’ll find freedom and clarity in these pages.

Rather than treating God as a means to achieving your goals (like some books do) or ignoring God altogether (like most authors do), Jordan Raynor presents a biblically-based road map to pursuing your goals with Christlike confidence.

Because Jesus is the most successful person who ever lived—by the world’s standards and by God’s—Raynor has studied the four gospel biographies to better understand how Jesus pursued his goals. The result is seven biblical principles to help you

1. Choose redemptive quests: Trade the common goals of recreation, retirement, renown, and retreat for Christ’s quest of redemption. 2. Baptize your imagination: Move from incremental to exponential vision for what God can accomplish through you. 3. Order your steps: Break big goals into a sequential plan of small steps pursued with singular focus. 4. Lighten your load: Achieve more by doing less and lightening the load on your soul, to-do list, and hurried calendar. 5. Trust God and get going: Work hard while trusting God with 100% of the results. 6. Maneuver the messy middle: Prayerfully discern when and how to quit, pivot, or persevere through the hardest part of pursuing your goals. 7. Measure upward, backward, and forward: Evaluate your success in radically different ways than the world.

Each of the seven biblical principles is followed by a menu of optional practices—fifty-eight in total—to help you live out this timeless wisdom in a modern context.

By offering a clear, gospel-centered framework you can turn to again and again, this book will be the last book on goals you’ll ever need—helping you pursue your goals with Christlike confidence, consistency, and character.

This audiobook edition features exclusive interviews with John Mark Comer, Jen Wilkin, Jon Acuff, Emily P. Freeman, and Mark Batterson about Redeeming Your Goals.
