Outlive Your Life by Max Lucado

Max Lucado’s newest book exhorts believers to be intentional and bold in allowing God to use us to make a difference in the world, challenging us to consider the need (the world) and the tools (we believers). The author encourages to assess our abilities, team up with others, consider the ministry of hospitality, the ability to microfinance, do good quietly, help the poor, be humble, overcome our biases, see others through God’s eyes, and pray.

This book was a good reminder of the importance of people as ready, willing tools in God’s hands to do His work His way. The one change I would make in this book is to incorporate the suggestions in the Discussion and Action Guide into each chapter in order to help people apply practically what Max Lucado advocates.

As usual, this author’s book is well written and biblically sound. It was interesting and challenging. I recommend it to anyone.
