    This was the first book I picked up that did an excellent job of not only explaining different aspects of Christianity and what it meant to be a "Christian," but also focused on so many of the questions I wanted answers to. It was an incredible feeling and I loved every part of that book, reading it several times over the course of the next couple of years.

    It's been 10 years since The Purpose Driven Life was published and it's being re-released for the anniversary in a beautiful hardcover edition. This new edition has two added chapters. There's also web links and access to an 30 minute audio message from the author, which was great to listen to.

    I read Rick Warren's Purpose Driven Life in college -- about 10 years ago -- when the church I was going to at the time did a series on it. We had weekly sermons and small group studies all discussing it. And I don't remember a single bit of it. So when the book was re-released, I thought it would be a good chance to read it again.

    I like non-fiction books that break their overall idea down into a handful of smaller points, and in the case of this book there are five purposes -- worship, fellowship, discipleship, ministry and mission. Each point is broken down further as the short, devotional-like chapters get you thinking about how those purposes fit in your personal life as well as in the world around you.

    This is one of those books that is good to re-read every few years. Different parts will stick out to you at different times of your life, depending on your current circumstances. And we all need reminders about how God created us FOR HIM and His glory, not for anything we might think important about ourselves. It's humbling, yet encouraging at the same time.

    "Not to us, Lord, not to us but to your name be the glory, because of your love and faithfulness." Psalm 115:1

    This book is indeed a book to be read by all. It deals with issues at the core of all human existence and from the day I started reading up until now in Day 32, my life has being steering in the right course. I now view life on earth with eternity in mind. Something I never was conscious about before. I am also sharing with as many people I know about the book and how much it is blessing my life . I also bought a copy for my Sister and her husband and look forward to opportunities in impacting as many lives as possible with the information am getting from the book.

    I love everything Pastor Rick Warren preaches and writes about. He has a brilliant way of breaking things down and making difficult concepts easy to understand. He keeps your interest and he is never boring.

    The anniversary edition of "The Purpose Driven Life" is even better. There are two new chapters added: "The Envy Trap - I must be like you to be happy" and "The People-Pleaser Trap - I must be liked by you to be happy".

    What I also think is a wonderful addition, are the QR codes and web links incorporated providing a video intro and 30-minute audio message by Pastor Rick Warren for each chapter.

    If you are not familiar with Pastor Rick Warren, The Purpose Driven Life is a great introduction. This is one of my favorite books ever. I highly recommend it to everyone.

    I have received a complimentary copy of this book to review from Zondervan and Thomas Nelson.
