I thought about adding Rick Warren’s The Purpose-Driven Life, but I couldn’t come up with a title for it. I did, however, find this book review on Goodreads that is too precious not to share:
when i thought my LIFE has no perfect meaning… that i was going on with boring days of 24/7 !! ” PURPOSE DRIVEN LIFE ” came into my LIFE with a KICK of knowing what is GOD’S purpose in my LIFE !! i came to know that iam not a mistake but of GOD’S CHOOSEN ONE !! HE choose me from the FAREST CORNER of this world & appointed me to BEAR FRUITS.. FRUITS that will ENDURES FOREVER & EVER… AS YOU KNOW FOREVER IS A LONG TERM OF TIME !!
i would prefer you “ALL” to read “this” book to get recharged !!
PRESS ON & ON..
FOR JESUS !!
GOD BLESS U ABDUNTENTLY !!
Dear God. Give me some of what she’s having.
I’m reading THE SHACK presently and love it. Love the idea of God as a big black woman…
& I don’t consider myself a middle American Housewife!
Just started the Love Dare w/ Mr. Liverpool, too.
Wow, you’re reading my freaking mind!
Don’t judge me, okay? And don’t call me Stupid!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I read Jong, Plath, Austin, Hemingway, Angelo, Gloria Stein, & Woolf, as well!
..but seriously, I still REALLY dig ya. Do you still dig me? XxxOOoo
I still dig you. And I thank you for still digging me.
The books are dumb. You definitely are not.

Great answer! xx
I can picture the writer of that review totally sloshed with mascara stained tears running down her face. (I’m assuming “her” since she feels appointed to “bear fruits”) 😉 I actually read 3 of those books based on recommendation and some need for spiritual guidance over 10 years ago. I actually read the whole freakin’ Left Behind series…that series is like the Twilight series and Pringles, you just can’t stop at one. The movies were pretty bad even considering I thought Kirk Cameron was such a babe at one time. The Shack was awful, completely hokey.
Anyway, people need to do whatever connects them with something bigger if that is what they seek. Although, I believe religion puts boundaries on the infinite and you can simplify the whole thing by finding it within yourself. But, I digress. I enjoyed this post very much.
