Recovering Misplaced Passion: Rediscovering The Fire God Placed Inside You
Have you ever looked at your life and wondered, "How did I get here?" Somewhere between responsibility, exhaustion, disappointment, and survival, passion can drift. Purpose can dim. Calling can feel distant. Even the strongest leaders, parents, pastors, and professionals can find themselves overwhelmed, burned out, or emotionally empty.
In Recovering Misplaced Passion, Pastor Calvin Lamont Leonard takes you on a deeply personal and spiritually rich journey of rediscovery. With transparency, wisdom, and a shepherd's heart, he shares his own story of burnout, loss, and restoration-and the biblical principles that helped him rise again.
Through powerful case studies of David, Elijah, and Moses, Calvin reveals how even God's greatest leaders drifted from their purpose...and how God lovingly restored them. You'll learn to recognize the symptoms of misplaced passion, understand the effects of emotional depletion, and discover practical steps to recapture the fire God placed inside you.

If you're ready to rise again, this book will show you the way.
