Format:Paperback
People of all ages are in a desperate search for meaning and purpose in their lives. The endless longing to make a difference and find purpose in a world that is intent on split second decisions and superficiality has left us insanely wide and miserably shallow. Sit back, grab a cup of joe, close yourself off from the rest of the world and take the time to consider the charge that the author is calling us to hear...do something with your life, seize it, and make a difference.

Format:Paperback
Claude Hickman captures the truth of the theme of the Bible--for all nations to worship God-- in his book, Live Life on Purpose. I have read several books about fulfilling your life purpose, but his is by far the most Biblical in practice. Hickman's sense of humor and personality come through in his book which definitely gives it a down-to-earth feel as well as making it easy to relate to. Hickman provides not only the Biblical basis of missions, but also provides practical applications to the truth from God's Word. I think college students and young professionals should read this book before they get settled in their careers.

I am only 75 pages into Hickman's book, but it is a powerful, personal challenge to every believer (especially college students and singles) to find God's purpose in life and follow with reckless abandon. Grab it while you can. It is a winner!
