Review of Outlive Your Life

I haven't really ever finished a book by Max however this is one book that I was proud of finishing. From the first page to the last page, I was captivated by the words on the page that brought life to my mind and soul.

This book challenged me to be different in an indifferent world. This book caused me to think so far outside the box and from what I'm normally used to thinking. Now I am called to think less of myself and more of those surrounding me.

This book has challenged me on many levels. One of the chapters is called "See a Need--Meet a Need." I've always enjoyed helping people out but after reading the chapter I began to realize that some of the reasons I help others are to have things to attach to my spiritual resume and make me look good. I was reminded that the reason I should serve one another is not to add to my reputation but because the Gospel should convict me to helping others.
