About this ebook

There really is more to this life than you've been told.

We've been demanding our way since day one ...

"I want a spouse that makes me happy and coworkers that always ask my opinion."

"I want weather that suits me and traffic that helps me and government that serves me."

Self-promotion. Self-preservation. Self-centeredness ...

"It's all about me."

They all told us it was, didn't they? And we took them up on it. We thought self-celebration would make us happy ...

But believing that has created chaos -- noisy homes, stress-filled businesses, cutthroat relationships. We've chased so many skinny rabbits, says Max Lucado, that we've missed the fat one: the God-centered life.

If you want to shift into high gear with purpose, this is it: life makes sense when we accept our place! Our pleasures, our problems, our gifts and talents ... when they're all for the One who created us, we suddenly gain what we've been missing and find what we've been seeking.

Let Max Lucado show you how to make the shift of a lifetime. How to bump your life off self-center. How to be changed and experience the meaning-charged life you were meant to have. Your discovery starts here.

Ratings and reviews

He is a true pastor & man of God. He speaks truthfully & makes you think, but not manipulatively or for money, unlike Rick Warren. This book is just absolutely fanomenal. It ranks up there in the New York Bestsellers. He is the only one I read besides David Wilkerson, Carter Conlon, Jonathan Cahn, Billy Graham, Eric Metaxas, Francis Chan, and a few others. Max lucado is not a false prophet.

Thank you God for the blessing Max has been to me through his service to you. You continue to reveal yourself on a much deeper level through his relationship with you and his life experiences.

Great read
