5.0 out of 5 stars
Outstanding and challenging,
This review is from: Who Switched the Price Tags? (Paperback)
This book challenges you to consider the priorities of your life. To value love, family and character more than achievement, wealth and status. To take more risks rather than the easy path. It was one of the foundations in my family's decision to uproot from a secure job in England and relocate to an unknown job in America. I have given away more copies than I care to remember; always to great effect. Enjoy it and learn from it. It might change the way you think about your life

Makes Some Valid Points,

This review is from: Who switched the price tags?: A search for values in a mixed-up world (Paperback)
As is true with his other writings, there are places where I totally disagree with Dr. Campolo in this book. Having said that I can say I am in agreement with the primary thesis of this book. He encourages the reader to risk more, try more, do more, love more, live more. Risk-taking and reflection are at the heart of what he is proposing. A self-sacrificing individual who gives to other people will find "fun" in living, not the one who lives to please self. It seems to me his proposition to live big, think big, take risks and love is right in keeping with the way Jesus taught.
