Out Live Your Life - Book Review


I have always seen Max Lucado books at the book store.
I have even bought them as gifts before.
Today, I can actually say that I am reading one!

I have been reading Out Live Your Life by Max Lucado and I am not quite finished.
Working with Book Sneeze, I have been fortunate to be in on the Out Live Your Life book campaign, so although my post is due today, I hate to say I am not finished.
Almost though.
I really like this book, as I feel as though it speaks to each and every one of us.
This book is a challenge to all of us to "Out Live Your Life."
Make a difference.
Even if it is only to one person, that might be the one that needs it the most.

One thing that Max Lucado said, has stuck with me...
" God doesn't call the qualified. He qualifies the called."

If you ever feel intimidated by thinking you do not have what it takes...
This book opens up the knowledge that not everything is about a monetary contribution.
A small act of kindness goes quite a long way...
Especially in today's world where it seems everyone is so busy.

There are many parts of this book that I am sure will make a difference to someone who reads it.
It even tells you how the simplest gesture of hospitality opens the door for so many emotions.

I like how Mr. Lucado uses scripture to tell his story...
So it is not all story, nor is it all scripture.
The balance is nice and makes for a pretty easy read.

Although I did not finish, yet...
I did flip over to the back to see what else was included in this book.

At the end, he has a Discussion and Action Guide.
This is a chapter by chapter outline of discussion questions, followed by Ideas to carry out the actions mentioned.

I think this would be a great read for a Sunday school class...
Or even a book group.

Thanks to booksneeze for allowing me to review this.
