Everyone begins somewhere. But how many truly finish well?
In the third and culminating book of his In Pursuit series, Mike Hardy — a man who once faced a federal prison sentence for cocaine smuggling — explores one of the most pressing questions facing Christians today: not how to start the faith journey, but how to see it through to a Great Finish.
In Pursuit of the Great Finish is part memoir, part discipleship guide, part theological deep-dive. Hardy weaves his own unvarnished story of redemption alongside the lives of towering biblical figures — Abraham, Daniel, the Apostle Paul, Mary of Bethany — to illuminate five essential principles for finishing strong in Christ: accountability, obedience, passion, discipline, and devotion.
Grounded in Scripture and seasoned with decades of walking with the Lord through prison, marriage, loss, and renewal, Hardy makes a compelling case that most Christians settle for a "good" faith life when God has called them to a great one. He dismantles the comfortable complacency that marks so much of contemporary Christianity and replaces it with a vision of active, intentional, heaven-focused discipleship.
With pastoral warmth, personal transparency, and the conviction of a man who knows what it costs to abandon the wrong path and pursue the right one, Hardy invites every believer — wherever they find themselves in the race — to lift their eyes, stay the course, and cross the finish line well.
In Pursuit of the Great Finish is essential reading for small groups, men's and women's ministries, discipleship programs, and anyone who senses that God is calling them to more.
