FRIDAY: Outlive Your Life

I swear I could pick a Lucado book out from a handful of samples. His "voice" and style are distinctive, taking the "same old" Bible story and adding details and layers to draw you into the story emotionally and to think of it in new ways.

In this book, the text is Acts, teaching time-tested ways of making a difference in your world, one moment and choice at a time - sharing the love and forgiveness of God, working together, showing hospitality, preparing for persecution, fleeing from pride and hypocrisy, etc.

I didn't walk away from this book with a life changing moment or insight, but it contained good, solid reminders of how to live a life that shows care for others. Would make a good resource for a Bible study group or Sunday school class.
