Carley would rather have been anywhere but here: a town deep in Minnesota’s farm country, with nothing plentiful except poverty.

No one could understand why - least of all Carley himself. But then David took Carley to his blacksmith forge. And under the grim nights and days of the Minnesota fall, under the glow of hot steel, and the most exhausting work he had ever known, Carley began to see a way to shape his life.

Our self-image is shaped by a number of sources: our family, society, what we have done, what has been done to us. It is much like being in a carnival house of mirrors: At every turn we are presented with distorted images of ourselves.

By looking at relevant Bible texts, you will gain a fresh perspective on the value God places on you and your potential.
