Somebody else has been saying \"I'm fine\" in the lobby for months. Somebody is waiting to get their life together before they come back. And somebody — maybe several somebodies — is privately sure they've gone back to the same thing one too many times, and this time God is finally done.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis guide moves your group somewhere different. It starts by naming the scorecard most believers keep without realizing it. It walks into the hiding that happens when that scorecard starts looking bad — and the self-punishment people mistake for repentance. It turns everything around with a Father who's been watching the road the whole time, who runs before you can finish your rehearsed apology. It brings your group to the moment they finally stop counting. And it lands on the only response that fits: gratitude from people who know exactly what they deserved and exactly what they got instead.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis isn't a guide about doing better.
