Discover what God means for you to be and contribute . . . More than ever before, people today search for acceptance and significance. Sadly, many have become why-ners: "Why do I...? Why don't I...? Why can't I be...? Why can't I do...? Why can't I look...?" So focused on who they're not, they miss the beauty of who they are. So enamored with what they don't have, they miss the richness of all they do have. So busy looking back at where they've been, crying, "If only...," they miss the opportunity to leap forward, crying, "But even now...!"Based on Ephesians 2:10, YOU-nique seeks to change all that! By helping you realize that you "are God's workmanship" - His very own work of art - YOU-nique will help you shake off the world's shackles of conformity and press on in God's freedom of uniqueness. You'll go beyond just knowing that you exist to bring God glory; you'll actually realize your own unique way of doing it.YOU-nique may be used as an individual study/assessment, as a stand-alone small-group study for both men and women, as a women's weekend retreat, or in combinations of these learning formats. This companion guide (ISBN 1-978-934749-58-6) provides helps for those facilitating a YOU-nique group in weekly sessions as well as for those planning the women's retreat and follow-up meetings. A separate book (ISBN 1-978-934749-57-9) provides study material for participants to complete before each of the six weekly sessions. Regardless of the format you choose, YOU-nique will be an adventure into the heart of God in which you can find peace for your past, strength for the present, and hope for the future. Then submit to God's design, knowing He created you, fitted you, gifted you, and delivered you for such a time as this!
