From Success to Surrender: Finding Your True Purpose in God's Perfect Timing

Chris Arnold suddenly and unexpectedly found himself escorted from his corner office-his corporate career abruptly ending with a modest severance package and a cab ride home. However, what appeared to be an ending became God's beginning. From Success to Surrender chronicles this transformative journey of stepping away from worldly success to embrace God's greater purpose.
This isn't just another story about losing a job and finding faith. It's a raw exploration of what happens when God disrupts our carefully constructed plans to reveal His divine purpose. Through unexpected events-from prophetic words in business meetings to yellow birds in his backyard-Chris learned the difference between just knowing about God and instead truly knowing Him.
Written from the crucible of personal experience, this book guides readers through the valleys of uncertainty, the mountaintops of revelation, and the desert places of waiting. Chris shares practical wisdom for anyone who has achieved worldly success, yet senses something missing, who wonders how to hear God's voice in practical decisions, or who feels caught between maintaining control and trusting God completely.
The journey from success to surrender isn't about abandoning achievement-it's about redefining it through the lens of God's perfect plan. Drawing from his experience as a quarterback, corporate executive, and business leader, Chris offers both inspiration and practical tools for those seeking to align their marketplace work with God's calling. His story demonstrates how to minister effectively within the business world rather than leaving it behind.
For anyone wrestling with purpose, identity, or direction, this book provides a roadmap for discovering what it truly means to surrender success for significance in God's kingdom.
