“Life’s not fair!” You've heard it a million times—and probably said it yourself. But what if your most difficult moments could be pathways to unbelievable purpose? Pastor Aaron burke shows us how our greatest obstacles can be turned into our greatest opportunities.

In The Unfair Advantage, pastor Aaron Burke looks at seven unfair seasons Joseph endured in the book of Genesis and what those seasons can reveal to us about struggles we’re facing today. Drawing on modern-day examples while digging deep into Joseph’s story, Pastor Aaron shows us how, with God’s help, we can

• transform adversity into advantage,
• endure the most difficult seasons with courage and hope, and
• be aware of God’s presence, peace, and promises—no matter what.

If you’re feeling discouraged, rejected, undervalued, tempted, unfairly punished, deprived, or forgotten—you’re not alone. Joseph’s remarkable story shows us how the most “unfair” moments of our lives can hold the most opportunity for God to work.

Your situation might seem hopeless. Yet God is forging something beautiful out of the brokenness, putting purpose to your pain, and building a future better than your greatest dreams. It all starts with having an unfair advantage.

Life's Toughest Moments? This book nails the help.

Wow. Not all books are created equal. My newest read is the 'The Unfair Advantage' book by Pastor Aaron Burke.

Watch my short video. It’s like he took the story of Joseph from Genesis and held it up as a mirror to our modern challenges.

It's not just a 'hang in there' kind of book – it's more of a 'here’s how you pivot when life throws curveballs' guide.

Honestly, if you've ever felt knocked down or overlooked, this is a must-read. It’s an easy read and keeps you hooked.

Burke genuinely shows how, with a little faith and perspective, our toughest times might just be our biggest blessings in disguise. And it’s all scripturally rock solid, too.

Add this one to your list.

Great message

The author gives such great insight into why bad things happen to good people. Absolutely a great read!

Most encouraging Christian book EVER!!!

This book has by far been one of the best encouraging books I’ve ever read and listened to! This book will definitely be a re-listen multiple times! Definitely worth listening to over and over! This book has blessed me so much! A must listen! Great for Bible studies as well.

Incredible perspective on pain

Thanks for this approach to life’s hard days . Really helped me and my friends. Definitely recommend.

Powerful and and Godly message that this generation needs to hear!

Our current society is filled with people who wallow away and their sorrows, pain and struggle and cling to it as a scapegoat to the life they are living. They make pain their identity instead of turning the pain and trials of life to propel them towards their purpose in God’s calling. Pastor Aaron shares 7 keys from the life of Joseph that God used to fulfill Joseph’s calling. So many awful chain of events that God used for good. This book will do just that, it will encourage and propel people to turn their unfair life circumstances into an advantage for their purpose that God has for them, just like we see in the life of Joseph. Such a good read, such an encouraging message. 10/10!

Well of knowledge and abundance of wisdom!

Understand what my life can be with my unfair advantage. It changes my attitude and action toward my life.

A life changing message

I prayed to God angry one night about why he had placed the challenges in my life that he did. I was upset. I didn’t understand- I had lost sight of my purpose. I felt like he abandoned me when I needed him the most. Not even a month later, I heard Aaron Burke on a Podcast with Zach Clinton talking about his book and the message behind it, and I felt Gods presence. I knew God was speaking to me. I have never listened to a book on this app more than once. This is my third time listening to it, and each time I do, I hear a message I missed before. This is the best book I’ve listened to and the first review I have ever done in 3 years. Praise to the Lord for this powerful message and thank you Aaron Burke for having the courage to fulfill the works God has called onto your life. Amen

A book worth reading

It’s a powerful book to read. Pastor Aaron hits hard on every page. The 7 keys are eye opening.

God's Confirmation

I work for a company where I am truly overworked and underpaid, and I have a very hateful supervisor who has never been one to lift up our team. I kept Praying before and after work, and things NEVER got better, so I kept asking God why? Why am I paid so little at 54 when my 22 year old girls are paid 3 times what I am? Why do I no longer want to help senior citizens when I LOVE working with them? Why is my supervisor always angry? Why am I struggling so much financially? I became bitter and started to Pray for a new life and for my supervisor to be fired. A senior told me that I need to Pray for my supervisor and embrace my job the way I did before because I Prayed for this job, and God heard me and Blessed me with it. I began Praying over my supervisor, our relationship, the seniors needing NY Medicaid long-term care, and my temperament. Things got worse, but I kept Praying and being the person I knew God knew I could be and wanted me to be. My supervisor told me on the 24th that she was leaving our team for another position, and I instantly knew that God was in the mix. Pastor Aaron, your book confirmed this. I enjoyed every single chapter and took away a peace and determination that I thought I had lost a long time ago. I will continue to Pray over my consumers, my job, my finances, and even my new supervisor, I wake up every day now with a smile on my face and in my heart and peace. Thank you so much for the confirmation, for bringing the book to life with your voice, which helps to bring the word alive through your personality. I know now more than ever that my girls picked the right Church to guide them on their journey as well as myself. We are Radiant!
