THE SIGNIFICANT LIFE

What You Need To Know:

The book THE SIGNIFICANT LIFE reveals in fascinating detail the many ways in which people fear being unnoticed and forgotten. Like Max in THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN 2, many people try to overcome their sense of insignificance by accomplishing great goals, being unique, associating with others who have significance, becoming infatuated with their personal history, and even in crime and criminal misbehavior. Of course, all these attempts to stand out and be remembered fall short.

This book, however, presents good news. Real significance, true significance comes from being made in the image of God. Furthermore, God loves you. He wants to answer your prayers and be involved with your life. Of course, God so loved the world to save each person who turns to Him. From what does He save us? Well, one of the things is feeling insignificant, destructive behavior, overcompensation. Better, He saves us to be free, to love others, and to find our purpose in life. THE SIGNIFICANT LIFE is a terrific book. The questions for reflection at the end of each chapter are helpful for both individuals and groups.
