The Making of a Model: On Becoming a Living Image of Jesus Christ

When Larry Scott returned home from work Monday evening, July 16, 1984, he noticed that familiar objects were missing, and his home was strangely quiet. It was the moment he had dreaded for weeks; his wife had left him. It was his first evening as an ex-husband, the end of his career as a minister, and the beginning of a solitary existence that would last twenty years. This is the story of a troubled life. It is also, however, the account of a man who rose from the mire to live again. The Making of a Model is a message of hope ... evidence that when God is in control, all things do, indeed, work together for good. The maturing process is sometimes traumatic, always life-altering, but, under God's direction, inevitably rewarding. The author's perspective will challenge you to believe that, no matter how difficult the journey, God can bring about beauty from the ashes of your life. And make of you, too, a living model of Jesus Christ.
