I read this the summer before 12th grade, and honestly didn't get much out of it. I felt neither inspired nor more understanding of my life when I finished it; rather, I felt annoyed and like I had for the most part wasted my time. ( )

Designed to be read over the course of forty-two days, The Purpose Driven Life will help you see the big picture, giving you a fresh perspective on the way that the pieces of your life fit together. Every chapter of The Purpose Driven Life provides a daily meditation and practical steps to help you uncover and live out your purpose, starting with exploring three essential questions:
The Question of Existence: Why am I alive?
The Question of Significance: Does my life matter?
The Question of Purpose: What on earth am I here for?

n this book the Purpose Driven Life is Christian pastor Rick Warren's answer to the burning question that we all have about why we're here and explains God's five purposes for your life and how you can realize and live each of them by going on a 40-day spiritual journey ( )

Studied through this book with the folks at church. Much of what's here is a rehash of other books and sermons on Christian living. Mr. Warren does put it together in an appealing way and add his own sparks of insight from time to time. ( )

This is a book that teaches people how to achieve spiritual growth by following Christian values. It tells them to think of the world as temporary and prepare for life in heaven, where they will be with God. We were made in God's image and are meant to share his love with others.

"The Purpose Driven Life by Rick Warren was a very insightful, hold no bars back book. I enjoyed it because I was able to see and read and understand what my purpose in life was and how I should go about doing the Purpose that God gave me. I enjoyed reading it and it gave me hope and peace that the journey I am on is focusing on my relationship with Elohim (God) and only Elohim was the right choice. I learned that finding a husband and having a child is not what Elohim wants me to do. He wants me to focus on Him and serving Him with a pure heart, a willing mind, and a teachable soul. He wants to shape me into a unique creation and He wants me to be myself. A unique and blessed individual who loves life and loves Him above all. I learned that my Purpose is different from those around me and that chasing after Elohim is better than chasing after men who do not care about me and who do not treat me with respect. I learned that if I serve Elohim faithfully and truthfully each day, month, and year and focus on my relationship with Him then He will provide me a uniquely crafted husband of His choosing for me to spend the rest of my life with. I trust you Jesus and I receive you!" ( )

This last year has easily been the most painful year of my life. I found myself angry at God and angry in general. I was mean, bitter, irritated, heartbroken, and sad all the time. I’d be driving home from work and bawl my eyes out while literally screaming and crying in emotional pain. Then, one day, not long ago, a book was randomly mentioned on TV and the title of the book stuck in my memory for some reason. I decided to look it up on Amazon, it had good reviews and was only a few bucks so I bought it. It sat on my desk for about a week but after one particularly rough day I brought the book outside with me, sat in the shade, and began to read. I had no idea what to expect but I felt my heart begin to change with each chapter. After a year full of anger, pain, and suffering this book was deliberately put into my life to point me in the right direction. I still have so much more work to do but this book showed me where to start. If any of this sounds like you maybe it can help you too. ( )

I know there are many people impressed by Rick Warren and this book. But I'm not one of them. This book wasn't what I expected, which was: how do we know what is God's will for our lives? I found the book actually annoying at times because of the way he markets his other books and products as well as his use of alliteration to push important points. ( )

My first Bible Study book with the Women's Ministry of Faith Landmark MBC. This is a great book for anyone who wants to know their purpose in life. This book opened my eyes to the deeper meaning of living for God. ( )

Very good. Nice, daily readings and videos. You could go much deeper with this book. Lots of practical advice. ( )

This book was OK, it does not deserve the hype that slot of Christians give it, it's pretty repetitive and kind of boring, does not proclaim the Gospel directly and clearly nor is it clear for what audience it was written for ( )

The author explains his use of multiple translations and paraphrasing but it still put me off. I felt like he was making the verses fit his purpose rather than presenting them in context and according to their original meaning. It would have been nice to have in text citation for the verses instead of end notes, especially where he used heavy paraphrasing. My biggest problem with the book though is that he seemed to forget who his audience is: unbeliever or believer. Either way, the book is mental fluff. ( )
