God’s Surprise Choices

Unlikely People in the Hands of God

God’s Surprise Choices: Unlikely People in the Hands of God is a pastoral Bible study that explores one of the most consistent—and most encouraging—patterns in Scripture:

God chooses the unlikely.

From Moses the reluctant leader…

to Gideon the least…

to David and Peter in their failure…

to Paul the persecutor…

to Rahab and the Samaritan woman on the margins…

to ordinary disciples, a small boy’s offering, and an unknown servant named Ananias…

Again and again, God works through people who seem unqualified, unprepared, or overlooked.

This study invites readers to see these familiar biblical figures in a fresh way—not as distant heroes, but as real people whose struggles, doubts, failures, and limitations mirror our own.

Through a rich blend of:

• Scripture (KJV)
• thoughtful teaching
• personal reflection
• poetry
• guided questions
• practical application (“Smithy’s Forge”)

readers are encouraged to move from self-doubt to faith, from hesitation to obedience, and from seeing themselves as “unlikely” to recognizing themselves as chosen by grace.

Drawing deeply from decades of pastoral ministry—including powerful experiences in Kairos prison ministry—this study brings the message of God’s transforming grace into real-life settings where hope is often hard to find.

At its heart, this is a message for anyone who has ever wondered:

“Could God really use someone like me?”

And the answer, gently but clearly, is:

Yes.

Not because we are strong enough—

but because He is.

A journey of grace.

A call to trust.

An invitation to step forward—just as you are.
