Nobody wants to live a mediocre life. Mediocre is a French word that means “halfway up the hill” or “unremarkable.” Why are so many believers in Christ settling for mediocre? We know that there is a divinely designed assignment and story for our lives to express. And there is! But uphill challenges, pandemics, and other disappointments deflate our dreams and bully us back to “oh-well” land.In all of human history, no one has ever died of an overdose of encouragement! However, far too many of our dreams have died from encouragement starvation. It is only when we dare to take the plunge out of “down living” and become a student of divine enCOURAGEment that we will thrive. Every great accomplishment ordained by our Creator requires that we learn how to draw from Him the courage necessary to fulfill it. How to Live UP is a feast for famished dreamers and delivers true stories and actionable steps to empower you to rise UP, connect with the greatest Encourager of all and run your race to the finish line.
