Title: Understand the Intent but
Review: I think I understand the intent behind what he was wanting to do, but this is not something I would recommend for anyone. This seems more of a self help light book instead of helping individuals understand who God is and what there response should be to Him.The Bible needs to be the supreme authority within every Christians life. It is not a self help book, but the inspired Word of God that reveals who He is and who were are in comparison. Wanting to glorify God in this life is great and will look different from person to person but it needs to be driven and grounded on the truth of Scripture. Scripture reveals that our purpose is through the penal substitutionary sacrifice of Jesus Christ, and Warren doesn't have that as the foundation of this book.It's not heretical but just not a solid book to spend time reading. There are other books that I would suggest picking over this one up. One is "Don't Waste your Life" - John Piper or "A Quest For More" - Paul David Tripp
