Engage Your Destiny: Practical Ways to Run After Your God-Given Purpose

From Ben Peterson, the combat veteran and founder of the non-profit Engage Your Destiny, comes a bold debut forged from Peterson’s own story of spiritual resilience and hard-earned wisdom. Engage Your Destiny invites readers to walk with God and uncover practical action steps to fulfill their own God-given purpose. 

Daring and vulnerable, Engage Your Destiny connects to the unseen aches and desires of the human heart to overcome our struggles and live out our dreams. Peterson fearlessly shares his own stories of pain, trauma, abuse, and addiction with readers. His honest insight and powerful stories display how God can break through to even the most unlikely corners of a person’s life. Since his own recovery from a personal low point in his life, Peterson’s life’s passion has been to testify to what is possible when you walk closely with God.  

Engage Your Destiny dives deep into hard topics, showing readers how God continuously shows up in even the most difficult of circumstances when people allow Him to lead their lives. From mundane everyday tasks to life’s mountain highs and valley lows, each chapter takes readers moment-by-moment through a story of God showing up in impossible ways. Interspersed within are tangible action steps, helping readers to reflect on these stories thoughtfully and infuse practical applications into their personal journeys.

Peterson outlines effective ways to:

  • Confront adversity with courage
  • Identify the brokenness in your heart
  • Find healing in a way that is both fun and inspirational
  • Walk closely with God toward fulfilling your dreams
  • Fully engage your God-given destiny

Engage Your Destiny powerfully illustrates that no matter what you’re going through, God’s destiny for your life is within reach, and you have the ability to embrace it.
