Overview
True success doesn’t happen overnight. The New York Times bestselling author of Win the Day reveals a life-changing truth about achievement: God is building you up steadily so you’re ready for overnight success.“How did you go bankrupt?” asked a character in Ernest Hemingway’s The Sun Also Rises. The reply? “Two ways . . . gradually then suddenly.”
In this illuminating book, Mark Batterson reveals that every area of life—from personal growth to professional development to spiritual transformation—follows this same pattern. What we perceive as sudden success is the result of little decisions compounding over time.
Gradually Then Suddenly will help you • cultivate cathedral thinking—adopt a long-term perspective that changes your daily decisions and life trajectory • leverage the compound effect—discover how courageous decisions and consistent routines domino into life-changing results • harness the power of persistence—commit yourself to the long game, and the impossible becomes possible • curate core convictions—discover how to defy peer pressure, popular opinion, and political correctness by defining your deepest convictions
Drawing from compelling biblical examples, fascinating historical stories, and hard-won leadership insights, Batterson demonstrates that God uses long obedience in the same direction to prepare us for sudden moments of major progress.
For anyone feeling stuck in the “gradually” phase, this book is a beacon of hope. If you do the right things day in and day out, God is going to show up and show off His faithfulness—not just for you but for generations to come.
