I've read books with a religious bent that I find very well written. Pure drivel - how many times can he write glory to god, we worship and glorify god, we enjoy god, delight in god, etc. One of the WORST books I have EVER read in my life.
I will begin and end this brief review the same way: I pray that they, too, will realize that their purpose here is not to serve their own self-interest but to serve God by serving others. These are the people whom I need to reach out to. Some people sometimes mock me for reading and posting about such spiritual things and even relating it with the holy use of money. But passing along the purpose of life is more than obligation it's one of life's greatest privileges. Anyone who knows the right thing to do but does not do it is sinning. The one who blesses others is abundantly blessed those who help others are helped.
If you want to keep growing, the best way to learn more is to pass on what you have already learned. At the end of your life on earth you will stand before God, and he is going to evaluate how well you served others with your life. We are saved to serve, not to sit around and wait for heaven. This passage struck me because I often felt sad about not seeming to learn anything from a sermon because the priest was too boring. Still, there were a lot more new insights that I learned which deepened my faith in God and His purpose for my life.Īnytime you feel you are not learning anything from a sermon or a Bible teacher, you should check your attitude, especially for pride, because God can speak through even the most boring teacher when you are humble and receptive. "Whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God." A lot of them confirmed the beliefs that I already have on the reason why we are here in this world and why some things do not go according to our plan. I followed Rick Warren's instructions and read one chapter per day to savor all the learnings and messages in this book.
