Desperate Times Result in Outstanding Outcome!
    I had the pleasure of meeting Dan and Irene recently and heard about Disappointments Transformed Into Destiny.
    After receiving a copy of the book I started reading a few paragraphs at a time the first day.  Suddenly, I felt compelled to sit down and read more and I couldn't put the book away.  I was even reading sentences while waiting at stop lights.
    We all have our own unique story and Dan's book reveals God's ability to make desperate times have an outstanding outcome.  What an incredible testimony of the great healing and redemptive power of our Lord!  This book is an inspiration will benefit anyone who picks it up!  God Bless.

Apparent Wrong Turns All Part of God's Plan
    Have you ever followed a direction you believed was part of the destiny for your life, only to end up disappointed?  If you have, then you may relate well with the message shared in Dan Woodworth's first book, Disappointments Transformed into Destiny.
    The basic message was made very clear, over and over again, that even apparent wrong turns are all a part of God's larger plan for our lives.
    I have to admit that my heart melted when I first opened the book and read the author's dedication to his precious wife, Irene.  After finishing Mr. Woodworth's book, it was obvious that this talented, enterprising woman has indeed been the wind beneath his wings, and in sharing his testimony, he also gives tribute to the woman who has been a great partner and support through the darkest of valleys.  So much of this book is her story too.
    Mr. Woodworth's story are almost painfully transparent, particularly when describing his one-year battle with debilitating depression.
