The Purpose Driven Life [Rick Warren]

คำอธิบาย What On Earth Am I Here For?  By Rick Warren The Purpose Driven Life (expanded edition)   THIS BOOK IS DEDICATED TO YOU. Before you were born, God planned this moment in your life. It is no accident that you are holding this book. God longs for you to discover the life he created you to live-here on earth, and forever in eternity. It’s in Christ that we find out who we are and what we are living for. Long before we first heard of Christ, … he had his eye on us, had designs on us for glorious living, part of the overall purpose he is working out in everything and everyone. EPHESIANS 1:11 (MSG) I am grateful to the hundreds of writers and teachers, both classical and contemporary, who have shaped my life and helped me learn these truths. I thank God and you for the privilege of sharing them with you.   Contents A Journey with Purpose | 11 A New Edition for a New Generation | 15 My Covenant | 17 WHAT ON EARTH AM I HERE FOR?
