Rate this book
Knowing Your Purpose Beings With Understanding ScriptureIf you're reading this, chances are you know what frustration feels like. You would describe yourself as a person of faith, of trust, and even of ambition. But for all the work and energy you've poured into your life, you still find yourself hitting walls. Big brick roadblocks keeping you from the thing you're meant to do.I've been where you are. I've hit those same walls, and yet - I know beyond the shadow of a doubt I'm walking in my purpose.Over the last 5 years I've published over a dozen books, spoken at churches, universities, and built a vibrant online community for Christians looking to do more with their lives. I've been able to accomplish these things because of the information in this book. This book holds everything I've learned from the Bible about purpose, along with some wisdom from men and women of God who have walked the path of purpose for much longer than I.This is my gift to you, but more importantly, this is your "permission slip" from God. You don't have to wait until you're "good enough." Good enough doesn't exist. All there is, all you can be, is a person dedicated to glorifying God in the profoundly unique way only you can.When you do that, when you begin to accept where you are and who you are as enough, that is when amazing things start to happen. And suddenly all those brick walls crumble into stepping stones.What's Inside10 incredible chapters on the themes of purpose, calling, and God's plan for your life Hundreds of Bible verses to give you an excellent foundation Answers to some of your most-asked What if God asks me to do something I don't want to do? When should I wait versus when should I take action? What does a calling from God look like in our modern world? BONUS chapters which includes resources from today's top leaders, pastors, writers, and more! Pick up your copy of this purpose-filled book today and get the clarity you've been looking for.

This book showed me some new insights on purpose and how to figure out what God has intended for me in life. However, this book didn't quite paint the complete picture for me. Also, the 'further reading' suggestions Ramos makes, made it seem as if everyone should be ambitious and always look for a higher job or office in life. Meanwhile, I think there is honour in the small things too and figuring out your purpose in yout daily life.

I had a hard getting into this book. The chapters seemed more like individual blog posts then creating one solid theme throughout the book.

Living in Purpose

This book is a great tool to align your life with Gods plan & purpose. There are a lot of step by step guides to figure out what God is calling you to do. This is not a miracle book, telling you to do a series of things and you will have a perfect life. This book is for those struggling with direction & feeling burnt out. Finding purpose is found when finding God & allowing him to lead. This book helped me look at purpose & success in a different perspective. I love that Ramos shares his own life experiences of failure, defeat, & resilience to paint a picture of what being led by God & passion truly is. This book is a short & easy to read. It took longer because i took a lot of notes, did the assessments, and journaled my thoughts.

Good description of how to find purpose in your life. Helps to encourage the reader to take practical steps in moving forward into all that God has prepared. Describes the many lies that discourage people from moving forward into a fulfilled life.

Well written book about the basics of purpose

Tuff journey the first ten or fifteen pages but worth it all finding little nuggets of wisdom worth holding onto for your narrow walk in this lifetime unto eternity

Reads more like a PowerPoint presentation and less like a book. Good biblical information, I just wish it were more conversational.

The reason

I found the book a little confusing. I did not understand the reasoning for purpose.. I liked the Bible verses. I need more details.
