Outlive Your Life Book Review

What an inspirational book. Max Lucado references the book of Acts and tells us that God intended us to change the world by serving others. It sounds simple, but we all come up with the excuses that we are to busy, someone else is better at it then us, etc. Max Lucado uses amazing stories of people who chose to serve others and make a difference. He is not telling us it will be easy, but that is it something we are suppose to do. He uses scripture to back up his teachings.

I loved his examples he uses in this book and even some ways in which we can make a difference in someones life. I couldn't help but feel very motivated after reading this book. My family and I have decided to sponsor a child through World Vision as a result of me reading this book. I often think of this book and am reminded how sometimes just even small things like giving someone a smile can make a difference.

If you are looking for a book that is an easy read and something that will give you inspiration and motivation, then this is the book that you should read. Wouldn't be amazing if everyone would read this book? Then maybe we could all make a difference in this world.
