SHAPED BY FAILURE

Why Failure Was the Training Ground for Your Calling

By Geoffrey Mbala

What if your greatest failures were actually God's greatest tools?

Many of us have been taught to hide our brokenness, bury our shame, and only show the highlight reel. But what if the very places you fell apart are where your true calling is born?

In Shaped by Failure, Geoffrey Mbala takes you on a soul-searching journey through pain, loss, and redemption. Through the raw and inspiring story of Pastor Joel—a man whose marriage and ministry publicly crumbled—you'll discover that failure doesn't disqualify you. It prepares you.

Whether you've faced a moral collapse, a broken relationship, or the silent battles no one sees, this book will help you:

Find God in your wilderness moments

Turn your pain into a powerful message

Break free from shame and rediscover grace

Understand the deeper purpose in your darkest seasons

Rise again—with humility, strength, and clarity

You weren't destroyed. You were being shaped.

If you've ever asked, "Can God still use someone like me?"—this book is your answer.
