Outlive Your Life: You Were Made to Make a Difference by Max Lucado

3.0

Lucado's premise is that as Christians, we can do things in the service of God that enable us to outlive our life. As an opening illustration, he tells the story of a visitor to an isolated island community who is surprised to see it thriving when every nearby community is doing poorly. The islanders credit a religious figure as the reason they are doing so well. The visitor demands to meet this man--but is baffled when he is taken to thriving fisheries, a beautiful chapel, etc. The villager explain that the man is dead and no longer with them...but he lives on in the things he taught them and the good works he left behind. Such inspiration fills this entire book, and with Lucado's wonderful gift for storytelling it is an easy listen.
