Your Best Life Now
I love the idea of this book! I am so into motivational power of positive thinking type of books. Especially ones that focus on the power of God. In Joel Olsteen's "Your Best Life Now" I really bought into the first few chapters. In them there are some very positive things we all can learn or at least be reminded of. However, I got lost in this book. Not the good kind of lost, but kind of lost that said, "Where is He going, is this it?" The whole idea of if your a child of the KING therefore expect to be treated like a king message kind of seems weak & worldly. To be fair Joel Olsteen never used the above statement, that's just the idea I got out of the book. It is ashame too, I really wanted to like this book. Use the book, non-christians are reading it. It could be a way to connect with someone who is searching. There are positive things to learn from it. But if you are looking for depth, you may want to avoid its shallow message.
