The Weight of Yes: When The Walk Gets Hard, God Is Still Working, (Paperback)

<b>You said yes to God. So why does everything feel so heavy?</b><p>The Church is good at celebrating the jump. We cheer the altar call, the surrender, the bold step of faith. But somewhere between that moment and Monday morning, nobody prepares you for the walk: the season where the calling that felt like fire in your bones starts to feel like dragging your feet through wet concrete.</p><p>If you are in that middle place right now, wondering if you heard God wrong or somehow disqualified yourself, this book was written for you.</p><p>Keith Charles knows the weight of yes firsthand. In 2018, he was a Major Crimes Detective with seventeen years on the job, a career most in law enforcement spend a lifetime chasing. Then a woman at church said what no one else would: he was running from a call God had placed on his life a decade earlier. That night, after two hours of wrestling with God in his office, Keith made a decision. For the first fifty years, he did it his way. For the second fifty, he would do it God's way. Both feet in. No looking back.</p><p>Then trouble came. Because it always does.</p><p>Walking through Peter's journey from Matthew 14 to Acts 3, <i>The Weight of Yes</i> traces the road from the man who sank in a storm to the man who stood at the Beautiful Gate and told a lame beggar to rise and walk. That transformation did not happen despite the hard middle. It happened because of it.</p><p><b>In these pages you will discover: </b></p><ul><br><li>Why the difficulty of the walk is not evidence that you heard God wrong</li><br><li>What the "wet concrete" seasons of obedience are actually building in you</li><br><li>Why God did not teleport Peter across the water, and why He will not shortcut your walk either</li><br><li>How to keep moving when the fire of your yes has faded and the storm has not</li><br><li>The purpose hidden in the middle of the miracle</li> <p> </p><p> </p></ul><p>Each chapter closes with reflection questions and a declaration to help you stand on what God said, not on what the storm is saying.</p><p>You are not failing. You are not disqualified. You are in the middle of the miracle, and the middle is where God does His best work.</p><p><b>It's time to get back out on the water.</b></p>
