Living on Purpose: Finding God's Best for Your Life

by Tom Sine, Tom Sine

In this era of "life makeovers," personal coaches, and success-oriented mission statements, many people are working hard to get it together. They're looking for a good life, which at its core includes wanting their time to count for something, to be meaningful and mindful. But as Christine and Tom Sine point out, "more and more people are missing the best and settling for less."
Living on Purpose presents a true life-changing strategy--one rooted in God's greater purposes for our lives, not merely our own desires for success. The book has a laser-focus on God's mission and vocation for each of his children, and it shows how staying on his course will lead to the very richest and most fulfilling life. Questions for reflection and discussion make Living on Purpose ideal for group use.
The Sines help readers make the connection between their everyday pursuits and goals and God's will for their lives. They show how to draft a personal or family mission statement to reinvent "timestyle" and lifestyle, using relevant examples from the Bible and other writings. Packed with inspiring stories and practical how-to, Living on Purpose leads readers to a more relaxed, festive, and meaningful life that truly counts--for today and eternity.

[Tim · Rating 4 out of 5]

Very helpful book on the issue of calling and purpose. Christine and Tom Sine base their instructions on an important premise: that our primary call is to incarnate the kingdom of God and his purposes in every sphere of life, as part of a community of Jesus followers. The book is full of practical examples, solid instruction, and exercises for those wanting to deeply explore what purposes God might have for them. Highly recommended!
