MacDonald's collection of bestselling titles, Ordering Your Private World, Renewing Your Spiritual Passion, and Rebuilding Your Broken World, offers the strength and compassion of Biblical hope to those who struggle with confused goals and shattered ideals.
Gordon MacDonald has been a pastor and author for over forty years. For many years he pastored Grace Chapel in Lexington, Massacusetts and continues to serve as Pastor Emertius. He has also provided leadership to influential ministries such as Intervarsity Christian Fellowship, which he served as President for three years, and World Relief, which he currently serves as Chairman. Gordon’s best-selling books include Ordering Your Private World, Mid-Course Correction and, most recently, A Resilient Life. He also writes and serves as Editor-at-Large for Christianity Today’s Leadership Journal. When not writing, leading or speaking at conferences, Gordon and his wife Gail can be found hiking the trails of New England.
Although I don’t agree with every point the author makes, most of the book has good advice on Christian living. He doesn’t quote scripture as much as I expected or hoped, which seems odd at the least; he quotes a lot of people and books instead. A lot like Christian psychology or counseling rather than Biblical commentary on our human condition.
