Read by the author.
What fears are standing in your way or holding you back? How do you want to become stronger? Olympic and World champion hurdler Sydney McLaughlin wants to help you answer these questions as she shares her personal story of struggles and victories, of faith and transformation.
Sydney McLaughlin knows about facing down obstacles. She has mastered not only racing over hurdles on the track but also tackling challenges in her personal life—from lifelong battles with perfectionism and anxiety to persistent questions about her identity and whether she was "enough."
Her pursuit of perfection and people-pleasing continued for years until God broke into her story with his overwhelming grace, transforming love, and empowering truth.
In Far Beyond Gold, Sydney will share aspects of her life story and personhood she has never shared publicly before, offering a more complex picture of who she is. She will inspire you to:
Conquer your fears in Christ's strengthStand strong in your identity in himPush past your perceived limitsOvercome the challenges you're facing
Experience the story of a woman who shifted from anxiety to boldness, from limits to freedom, and from perfectionism to purpose—and now shows the world that often what we think is impossible is possible with God.
Customer Reviews
Thank you Sydney
Enjoyable listen! Made me think about my desire to have a closer relationship with God. These days it’s easy to get distracted and move further away from his word. Great job Sydney, thank you for helping me get started on a new journey.
Track Focused, Rarely Faith
I loved hearing about Sydney’s track development and the situations in her life, but this was a novel full of redundancies. We get it - you trusted God with your abilities and when you had self-doubt. I really expected more. On the other hand, I enjoyed witnessing her growth from high school to now as a married woman. Maybe the next novel on marriage?
Inspirational
Watching you in Paris I was inspired by your constant improvement. So, I downloaded your audiobook. I literally finished in 1 day. And listed again just 3 days later. Your story is amazing. Hats off to your parents!
