About this title

Synopsis

The purpose of life is to know God and follow His guidance, becoming the unique person He created you to be and doing the good works He has ordained for you. Many people struggle with the issue of faith, stymied by unanswered questions or perceived contradictions.

Do you want life to make sense?
Are you hungry to find meaning and purpose?
Do you want your life to matter?
Do you occasionally feel lost or stuck?
Do you sometimes wonder what God expects from you?
Do you feel like your best life is always out of reach?

If finding answers to any of these questions captures your attention, and you’re willing to re-examine what you believe is true about life, reading this book will open new horizons, offering a pathway to extraordinary transformation and a deeper understanding of your true identity and purpose.

Instead of simplistic religious dogma, you’ll discover a gold mine of profound insights, often counterintuitive, about who God is and how He designed life to be lived. If you possess an inquisitive mind and a teachable spirit, this book serves as your guide to a rewarding journey of self-discovery and transformation!

Book Description

“Finding Meaning, Purpose, and Fulfillment: Making Sense of God, Life, and Success” offers an enlightening and transformative journey, providing a comprehensive rational framework for biblical Christianity. It proposes that the core element of God’s plan for humanity is for us to live in relationship with Him.

From God’s perspective, life is meant to be a journey of discovery, with the Holy Spirit as our ever-present and dependable guide. Readers will develop a deep understanding of their true identity and God’s plan for their lives, becoming well-informed and knowledgeable about their spiritual journey.

God’s unique plan for each of our lives – established through our relationship with Him – emerges as we discover the correct answers to four Essential Questions:

Who Is God?
How Has God Designed Life to be Lived?
Who Am I?
What Is God Asking Me to Do?

God intends to use all our life experiences – past, present, and future – to help us discover the correct answers to these questions. As you search for and find the right answers and surrender to God’s leadership by aligning your life with the truths you discover, meaning, purpose, and fulfillment emerge and deepen.

The book thoughtfully structures the faith journey into three sections, using the analogy of planning a cruise vacation.

Section 1 provides a comprehensive overview of the book’s argument and main ideas, exploring the foundations of meaning, purpose, and fulfillment. I discuss several issues that can hinder the beginning and sustaining of a relationship with God, and introduce four key foundational life principles.

Section 2 explores the four levels of rationality we use to interpret life experiences, provides an in-depth look at each Essential Question, and shows how to incorporate the exploration of these questions into our lives.

Section 3 highlights common misconceptions about life that can impede spiritual growth and offers a framework for starting the reader’s faith journey, including tools for tracking progress.
