New week... New book. I feel so blessed to receive a complimentary copy of "Out Live Your Life," by Max Lucado, from Thomas Nelson. Admittedly, Max Lucado is my favorite Christian author, not only for non-fiction adult publications, but also for childrens stories. I jumped at the opportunity to review this book after having read Lucado's "Fearless". There are some Max-one-liner's from "Fearless" that stick with me in my daily walk with Christ.
Book Description from the publisher:
These are difficult days in our world's history. 1.75 billion people are desperately poor, natural disasters are gouging entire nations, and economic uncertainty still reigns across the globe. But you and I have been given an opportunity to make a big difference. What if we did? What if we rocked the world with hope? Infiltrated all corners with God's love and life? We are created by a great God to do great works. He invites us to outlive our lives, not just in heaven, but here on earth. Let's live our lives in such a way that the world will be glad we did.
Once again, I am blown away by Max Lucado, or rather his God-given gift to speak to us through Lucado's writing. He really opened my eyes to the small things we can do each day to spread the good news of salvation through Jesus Christ. How small actions can make big impact. That with God anything is possible.
My favorite part of "Out Live Your Life" is that after each chapter, Lucado has provided the reader with a prayer. The prayer allows you to truly ask the Lord how you can out live your life and makes it so applicable. Yep, even this stay-at-home-mom can bring glory to God in a big way!
Find a way to read this book!
