I've read a lot of books by John Ortberg, but I think this book is my favorite so far. It's layout is very appealing and makes for an easy read - very important for those of us with ADD. I found the stories, quotes and Scripture references SO inspiring. Everyone who desires to live for God should have a copy of this book!
