Book Description

October 8, 2004
We’ve all done dumb stuff in our lives. We all have regrets. Yet none of us plans to mess up our lives. Why, then, does it keep happening?

Life doesn’t have to be that way. You can fool-proof your life…as this book shows. God’s promise and pattern is for something better.

In The Best Question Ever, Andy Stanley effectively teaches the practical and lasting value of simply asking this question about our actions in all of life’s arenas: What is the wise thing for me to do, in light of my past experience, my present circumstances, and my future hopes and dreams?

This book probes for honesty —it pushes us to open our eyes to reality and helps us expose the little (and big) self-deceptions we have.

Prepare yourself.

You are about to be introduced to a single question that will revolutionize the way you make decisions.

Over the past twenty years, speaker and author Andy Stanley has shared the power of this question with thousands of students and adults all over the country. In this ground-breaking new book, Andy provides you with a filter through which to evaluate every decision in every arena of your life. As you are about to discover, the Best Question Ever will bring clarity to decisions involving your finances, your love life, your schedule, even your career.

People everywhere agree that their greatest regret could have been avoided had they asked the Best Question Ever and then acted on their conclusions. A time-tested truth that has immediate application, the Best Question Ever has the power to change the trajectory of your entire life.

Story Behind the Book

After continually making decisions that were short-sighted and hasty, Andy Stanley sought counsel. In Ephesians 5:15 he read, “Be very careful, then, how you live—not as unwise but as wise.” It was there that Andy discovered what he considers to be The Best Question Ever.

5.0 out of 5 stars Modern-Day Proverbs November 22, 2005
Format:Hardcover
This title is the second I have read by Andy Stanley. My appreciation for the author and his writing style is growing. He is entertaining, edifying and enlightening. In this volume, Stanley poses the best question ever. He first explains the question, and then applies it to time, money and morality. He closes with an emphasis on the importance of the best question ever.

This book is a good, quick read that will benefit any Christian. I recommend it highly. After reading it, the chances are much better that the reader will ask himself the best question ever on a regular basis!

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Book About Making Decisions July 4, 2005
Format:Hardcover
"The Best Question Ever" is a question we are to ask ourselves each time we make a decision. The question (which I will leave out) is a fairly simple question which really isn't the best part about this book.

This book's strengths come from the applications that the book gets into later. Specifically, how to apply this question in areas of your life such as finances, time, purity, and family.

I was impressed with Andy Stanley's insights. His writing is very clear, concise, and easy to read. His examples that he includes are excellent and my only objection would be that he didn't include more.

Overall, this book is a good read. Definitely worth reading. 5 out of 5 stars.

5.0 out of 5 stars Invaluable practical wisdom June 14, 2005
Format:Hardcover
As a practicing clinical psychologist, I cannot recommend this book highly enough. Timeless truths and sound Biblical wisdom are always a sure thing. Andy has a gift of taking the truths of scripture and making them refreshingly practical to our lives. You will use the principles in this book every day - if you are wise!
