Moms, specifically, are wondering if they still have a purpose once their kids are grown.
Others of you are restless, hoping there’s greater meaning to your one and only life.
I have the privilege of coaching women and couples in their quest to live their lives on purpose through the ONE LIFE Process. It is a customized, one-on-one experience where I sit with clients for two days to…
recover the value of their story,
rediscover the goodness of their unique gifting, and
discover the wonder of living out their purpose.
Because of this life-giving work, I get to read a lot of great books on purpose!
Here are 5 books on purpose I’ve recommended over and over:
“As the child of Nigerian immigrants in the UK, author and speaker Jo Saxton knows firsthand how quickly the world can cause us to doubt our dreams and question who we are. She understands how easily we can exchange our true child-of-God selves for an identity built on lies, guilt, and brokenness.
In this powerful book, Jo examines Biblical figures and shares her personal story as she invites you to turn to the One who knows you intimately and loves you deeply. He sees all you’ve struggled to hide. He hears the voice inside you that others have silenced. He knows the potential and purpose that no one valued. He longs to redeem the story of your life and set you on the path to reclaim The Dream of You.“
(Listening to this one is a gift as you get to hear the author speak life over you in her beautiful voice.)
“This is your one life. Right now. Today. You don’t get a second chance to get it right. No one has ever drifted into a rich and meaningful life. But here’s the good news: as a Christ follower, you have every resource you need to live the rich and satisfying life Jesus promised. Your One Life is a road map to the life you long to live.”
“Much is said in Christian circles about knowing God. But there cannot be deep knowledge of God without deep knowledge of one’s self. In this profound exploration of Christian identity, psychologist and spiritual director David G. Benner illuminates the spirituality of self-discovery.”
“Rebekah draws from her own battle with depression and anxiety to share a pathway to establish four life-giving rhythms that quiet inner chaos and make room for you to flourish. By taking time to truly rest, restore, connect, and create, you will discover how to … trade your anxiety for the vibrant life you were meant to live.”
Our calling (or purpose) is the way of being that is both best for us and best for the world. – David G. Benner
