About this ebook

The world seems to have figured out the formula for manufacturing material success, but when it comes to finding true, lasting happiness, we are as lost as ever. We yearn for more, or less, or something that’s just different from what we have right now.Deep down, we know there must be satisfaction for our longing. We just don’t know where to find it.

In Sandcastle Kings, Rich Wilkerson, Jr. uses four powerful stories from the seventh chapter of Luke to explain why spiritual fulfillment cannot be found in ourselves, in other people, in material things, or even in religion. By studying the stories of the centurion’s faith, the resurrection of the widow’s son, Jesus’ message about John the Baptist, and the anointing by the woman with the alabaster jar, you will be able to face your doubts and insecurities and overcome your anxiety, discontentment, and depression. Wilkerson wants you to understand that the only answer for your spiritual bankruptcy is Jesus and that until you turn to him you will never experience the lasting peace and joy you so desperately crave.

Ratings and reviews

This book spoke directly to me the whole way through. I've been a born again christain since I can remember but this book really helped me see Jesus in a new light. To know that Jesus loves me regardless of who I make myself out to be. Also that he is amazed at my faith, not my works - I finally see that connection. How to make Jesus proud of me is to believe in him with everything I am. Thank you Pastor Rich for writing this book! It's truly inspired me to seek Jesus in a new (better) way.

Loved, Glory to God, I pray He continues to work in and through Ps. Rich Wilkerson jr.

Straight forward.
