Fired Up

“But as for you, you meant evil against me; but God meant it for good, in order to bring it about as it is this day, to save many people alive.” – Joseph

To attend work one morning only to be blindsided by a firing by the afternoon can be painful like losing a loved one. This is because in America what we do for a living is often intimately tied to who we are. When someone you meet asks, “So, what do you do for a living?” how do you answer? But like any other major crisis, being terminated can be the defining moment that actually launches you to your true destiny. Fired Up is one person’s intimate account that shows in raw honest detail how to climb back after a major fall.
