Hi all;
I'll be reading this book over the next 40 days:
Per the Amazon.com description:
"The book argues that discerning and living five God-ordained purposes-worship, community, discipleship, ministry and evangelism-is key to effective living. His 40 short chapters are intended to be read over 40 days' time, giving readers small pieces of his purpose-discovering program to chew on. Warren certainly knows his Bible. Of 800-plus footnotes, only 18 don't refer to Christian Scripture. He deliberately works with 15 different Bible translations, leaning heavily on contemporary translations and paraphrases, as an interesting way of plumbing biblical text. The almost exclusively biblical frame of reference stakes out the audience niche for this manual for Christian living."
The book recommends reading and discussing each day's reading with a fellow reader.
If there are any FReepers out there who are currently studying this book, I'd like to hear from them and possibly arrange daily discussion over the next 40 days.
