the Purpose Driven Life

well lately, in another blog, i posted an article entitled 'life is a journey of self discovery' and went on to explain how most of us keep on searching but end up never finding our purpose in life... a friend of mine who read that article replied in a comment advising me to get a book called the Purpose Driven Life by Rick Warren; the founding pastor of Saddleback Church in Lake Forest, California...

being the lazy bum that i am, i bought the simplified version (i think, the small one, the pocket version)...

well, this book actually is more like a reference, a guide to a 40-day spiritual journey that will enable you to discover the answer to life's most important question: What on earth am i here for?

little did i know that this book is closely tied to the bible... and i am not tryin to preach or spread christianity here... heck, i myself am no christian!!! but i guess it would be pretty useful to share with you the contents of this book as it might help some of you find your way in life... this book is written and preplaned in a way that it takes you exactly fourty days to read it, one chapter a day so you will have time to think about the implications for your life...

why fourty days? answer; the Bible is clear that God considers 40 days a spiritually significant time period;

*Noah's life was transformed by 40 days of rain

*Moses was transformed by 40 days on Mount Sinai

*David was transformed by Goliath's 40-day challenge

and so on and so forth... if i continue quoting the entire book here, i might be sued for plagiarism... so i'll stop right here... and so we'll start our journey together... of course like i said, i can't quote the entire book, so i'll post some of it's contents for u to get a gist of what the book is all about...
