God Outwitted Me

Brother Lawrence entered the monastic order in 1642 believing that he was giving up this world's happiness to become a monk, but there discovered a much deeper happiness than he had ever imagined. One day when he was praying and reflecting on the dramatic turn of events in his life, he shouted out, "e;God, You have outwitted me!"e;This simple phrase has become both banner and battle cry for Maxie Dunnam, as well. It s his testimony; God has outwitted him over and over again. In this memoir, Dunnam considers his life, not as a detailed rehearsal of people, places, and events, but rather as a reflection on the events and circumstances that have shaped him into the teacher and preacher he has become.
