Many people do not realize that in a world filled with negativity, there is hope, a greater purpose for their lives, and a God-given potential inside of them that is just waiting to be released. Xulon author CJ Small's newest release, You Were Created for Greatness: 12 Steps to Releasing Your Great Potential (paperback, 978-1-60647-159-3), teaches readers how to do just that. By applying the 12 motivational, encouraging, practical biblical principles contained in this book to their lives, readers will be able to transform their lives from average to great.
Says Small, a Plano, Texas, native, "It will help this generation and many generations to come with self-esteem issues, achieving their goals, and realizing they have a great purpose in
life. I feel like my one great thing is to encourage others. By doing the one great thing I was created to do, it will intern, inspire, encourage, and bring hope to people to live their
dreams, reach their God-given potential, and accomplish their 'one great thing.'"
After suffering abuse at a young age, Small allowed God to step in and turn his life around. Now as a pastor, motivational speaker, and author, he uses his life to encourage others.
Additionally, Small was an associate pastor at a mega-church with more than 12,000 members where he was the pastor of more than eight individual ministries. Specifically, as the director
of the men's ministry, he taught men that they have great potential and helped them achieve their goals as well as understand their purpose in life.
