Summary: Excellent Study Book for Parent Groups
Comment: Everyone wants to "be somebody." In an informal conversational style Dr. Sproul discusses the hunger for significance, the urge to be some body. He does this in ten chapters. First comes our search for personal worth. We want our lives to count. That desire is as strong as the urge for food and shelter. Next is the search for love. Here t he author with the qualities of love. Loyalty is one facet sometimes ignored. Love is abiding, durable and sometimes blind. Love is strong yet fragile and easily wounded by thoughtless words and deeply comforted by praise sincerely meant.. Following that is the search for dignity. What is dignity? The study continues with discussions of dignity in various settings including the home, the school the hospital, the prison, the work place. At the close of each chapter there is a set of discussion questions. The book in unified yet each section can also stand alone. Reading this volume is a tonic and a warning to the reader. How much our lives impact on others and theirs on us is illustrated by the discussions. Parents reading this will see many places which speak directly to the way they should interact with themselves and the other family members. While perhaps not designed as a book specifically for parents, this would be an excellent study for parent groups. According to a story about William Jennings Bryan who when question as to why he wore his hair as he did, replied, "My wife likes it that way." That may be the best reason for doing something!

Summary: Great layman's approach to Chirstianity
Comment: This is a great book for anyone wishing to explore Christianity on their own terms, or for anyone who is intimidated by the Bible or its interpretations. This is a great book of self exploration and how your personal life is fulfilling your most basic spiritual needs. My only ciriticism would be the books lack of structure toward the middle, and its inability to stay 'on the path'. Otherwise, great read for anyone.
