Book Review - "Out Live Your Life" by Max Lucado

Anyone that has been a Christian for any length of time, or anyone that has lived for that matter, has found that it is easy to just live our lives day-to-day, and have no real impact on the world around us. The truth is, God has a greater plan for our lives - a plan that includes impacting the world around us. In author Max Lucado's book, "Out Live Your Life", he challenges and encourages us to "open the clam shell", step out into the world around us, and live a life that demonstrates the fact that God uses ordinary people to do extraordinary things.

This is a great book. Chapters are very short - averaging 4-8 pages per chapter - which made it an easy book to read through; and also made it possible to digest the contents bite by bite. The book is quick to challenge your view of yourself and your view of the world around you; and brings about many points to stop an meditate on. There is a great use of story telling, metaphors, and illustration to bring to life the awesome reality that God can, and wants to use us! I would certainly recommend this book - especially to leaders that find themselves "too busy to read."
