Don’t Waste Your Life - John Piper

The best book ever written (except the Bible).

I once said that Blue Like Jazz was a stunningly, stunningly good book. Compared to this, it’s … well, it just can’t compare with ‘Don’t Waste Your Life’.

If you read this and it doesn’t change your life then you’re either not saved or dead.

It’s as simple as that!

John Piper’s writing style is a little heavy for me but he has lightened it up enough to make it readable and what he has to say is, in my opinion, essential reading for all Christians.

DON’T WASTE YOUR LIFE!

Too busy NOT to pray - Bill Hybels

Put God back in the center of your life

Too busy not to pray will revolutionize your prayer life. It’s that simple.

God is the creator of all things, including time. We try our best to fit everything in to our day and then hope we can find a couple of minutes to pray.

Bill Hybels suggests you do it the other way around - spend time with God first, putting Him in the right place, and then allow Him to help you fit everything else in.

It’s amazing the difference that giving your day to the Creator of time can make!
