book review of The Call, Os Guinness

The Call: Finding and Fulfilling the Central Purpose of Your Life
Os Guinness

Amazon book review
By Michael Taylor (Indian Trail NC)
I personally thought some of Guinness' better points were:

  1. Be devoted to Jesus instead of your service to Jesus.

  2. Be inner-directed by God rather than other-directed by the opinions of
    others (what God thinks matters most!).

  3. God calls us to a life of faith.

  4. Deliberately spend time in solitude with God.

  5. Glorify God in the ordinary things of life.

  6. A sense of calling keeps us focused when modern-day life threatens to tear us apart.

  7. Taking God's call seriously means we will pay the price of being abused and
    treated as fools by those who do not understand.


All in all, an excellent read!
