A Tale of Three Ships:Setting Sail for Your Extraordinary Dream

by Dwight Edwards

Using a metaphor based on the story of Columbus and his three ships, this extended parable outlines the three possible directions every person’s life may the sinking ship, the cruise ship, or the battleship-respectively symbolizing personal survival, unbridled enjoyment, and meaningful influence. Acknowledging that many people choose all three approaches at some point, this meditation focuses on avoiding smaller ambitions and striving for the quality and significance possible within the "battleship." Providing specific and practical guidelines for discovering one’s combined ability and passion, this inspirational handbook is beneficial for both young and older adults.

Great read! Simple read for Christians exploring their true purpose in life!

To-the-point inspirational message. A more direct and condensed message similar to "The Alchemist". I actually got to listen to the author speak about this very book/message. Very good stuff. I highly recommend it if you are looking to understand life and/or need a change at how you see (your) life.
