Redwoods and Whales helps you see the bigger picture of purpose and identity

You'll discover how seeing God changes how you see yourself

For when identity feels to be tricking away like sand through your fingers, Redwoods and Whales helps you grasp who you truly are, and how you were made to live.

In Redwoods and Whales, Phil Joel makes a passionate plea to a new generation of believers to not get "beached" in their faith, but rather get planted like mighty a redwood. By unlocking key Scriptures, Joel shows the peril of wandering away from the "pod" and the unending pleasures under the canopy of God's amazing Redwoods.

Who are we . . . really? As depression, addiction, and suicide become more commonplace in today's culture, it seems we have lost sight of who we actually are. Like a whale on a beach, too many of us are finding ourselves breathing shallow, feeling stranded, and alone.

The truth is we can cut free from the things that hold us back if we can catch a clear vision of the true character of God. And, like a mighty redwood tree, we can choose to live healthy lives filled with purpose, rising confidently above the chaos.

As we choose to align our hearts and minds with the truth, we will discover that maybe God isn't exactly who we thought He was -- maybe life with Him is a whole lot bigger and more exciting than we ever imagined.

Redwoods and Whales will give you the tools you need to help push aside the things that entangle, and grab hold of the life you were born to live.
