We all have places we want to end up in life. Yet the paths we choose often lead us away from our intended destinations. One poor decision can send us down the wrong road, crushing our dreams, and wasting years of our lives. As time passes, we look back wondering how we got off course, and how we can recover from broken dreams.

In this four-part series Destinations, Andy Stanley examines the disconnect between our dreams and the paths we take to reach them-that our direction, not our intentions, determines our destinations.

What if God were calling you to do something extraordinary with your life but there were things that just kept getting in the way of that happening? There was a guy named Moses who almost missed it, too, until the day he heard God say three words, “Throw it down.”  You see, God is calling you to do something extraordinary with your life, and as we stand at the beginning of 2012, perhaps you’ll hear God say the same three words to you and this new year could be the start of a new adventure.
