Review
This is a traditional Max Lucado book. He is encourages with stories and had loaded the book with great Bible verses. I read Fearless about a year ago and I, personally, thought that was more for me at that season of my life. I think Outlive Your Life would be great for a college student or someone looking for a ministry that is outside the box. This book may help you follow Jesus more closely. Lucado pulls references from the Bible and then specifically tells you ways to be more like Jesus, or whomever the story is referencing, in modern times.
There is a Discussion and Action Guide in the back of the book that would be great for a small group or book club, as well as discussions with your spouse about things you can do within your marriage and family.
I received this book for free from WaterBrook Multnomah Publishing Group for this review.

I love Max Lucado!
I've been thinking about getting this one, too, every time I look at the catalog that comes in the mail. That Fearless book really helped me with my anxiety last year. =)
Stay tuned, there might just be a giveaway soon!
