Don't Waste Your Life by John Piper

 191 pages

"'God created us to live with a single passion to joyfully display his supreme excellence in all the spheres of life. The wasted life is the life without this passion. God calls us to pray and think and dream and plan and work not to be made much of, but to make much of him in every part of our lives.'

"Most people slip by in life without a passion for God, spending their lives on trivial diversions, living for comfort and pleasure, and perhaps trying to avoid sin. This book will warn you not to get caught up in a life that counts for nothing. It will challenge you to live and die boasting in the cross of Christ and making the glory of God your singular passion."  --from the publisher

This is a forthright guide for Christians seeking to be in the world, but not consumed  by it. I found it to be an encouraging reminder to live what I believe. I give it four out of five stars.
