Publisher Description
We are all somewhere in the blacksmith’s shop. We are either on the scrap pile, in the Master’s hands on the anvil, or in the tool chest. Some of us have been in all three. In this classic collection of inspirational readings, best-selling author Max Lucado takes us on a tour of the blacksmith’s shop—examining every tool and looking in every corner, from the shelves to the workbench, from the water to the fire . . . For those who make the journey—who leave the heap, enter the fire, and dare to be pounded on God’s anvil—a grand privilege awaits: to be called one of God’s chosen instruments. See you in the shop!

"Something my husband and I bring up all the time. It's an image of God working on us, like a blacksmith works on metal. It's painful, but he only throws the pieces that aren't useful in the corner. It's always better to be on the anvil than not."
