Book Review - Outlive Your Life, Max Lucado

You may not feel special. You may not believe you have anything to offer the world, but you are wrong.


You DO have something to offer the world, something the world needs.

In Max Lucado’s Outlive Your Life Max shows you how other “ordinary, every-day” people are making a difference in lives of others, and the world.

From a 9yr old boy to seasoned veterans of life’s troubles, Max shows us that it doesn’t take money, fame, or a big production to make a difference in today’s world.

In a society where it’s all about you, it’s refreshing to read a book that shines a light on others and what THEY need. In his easy going way, Max makes it clear that both you and I, regardless of where we are in life, what “limitations” we see for ourselves, have something to offer someone.

Putting a spotlight on the early days of the church, Max also shows us the troubles and tribulations that the disciples had to endure and how even the smallest of acts from them (even scary at times) made a big difference to someone.

As Max puts it: we can’t help everyone, but everyone of us can help someone.

Outlive Your Life both challenges us as inspires us to do just that.
