[Alice Murray · Rating 5 out of 5]

If you're getting older (that's everyone!), you need to read this book. Watkins insightfully and inspirationally addresses the results of leaving the spring chicken stage behind and how to make the best of it. Sprinkled with humor as well as research and full of Bible verses, the book engages the reader and conveys that if you're not dead, you're not done. God's not finished with you regardless of your age. Watkins encourages the reader and provides a "to do" for each chapter to point them in the right direction. First to do in my opinion? Read Watkins' book!

[Ann Coker]

If you are older than a teenager and want to be inspired to do more with purpose in your life, you will not only get wiser reading this book, but you will have fun. Cartoons help, but Watkins' humor relates to your age and relationships. Read and enjoy.

If You’re Not Dead, You’re Not Done is a read many times and give to brighten the day for others kind of book. Humor, encouragement, truth, and spot-on insight combine for just what the doctor ordered.
