(  ) sjoycem | Nov 6, 2009 |  x NewGraceLibrary | Oct 20, 2009 | x NewGraceLibrary | Oct 20, 2009 | Lucado offers a cure for this common life: finding what you're meant to do and being true to who God created you to be...even if it means making changes or completely starting over. I thought this was a good book, but felt like I should've gotten more out of it. I don't know if I was rushing, or if I was in a weird frame of mind, or if it just wasn't one of his best, but it didn't live up to what I expect of Max Lucado. (  ) ashleyweb7 | Sep 20, 2009 | Max Lucado, a well-known televangelist, writes in the same style as he speaks on the topic of finding your own special gift from God and learning how to use those gifts for the benefit of yourself and others. A special section in the back is designed to be used like homework to determine these gifts. ( ) drj | Sep 2, 2008 |  no reviews | add a review

| Book description |
|
"Sweet spot." Golfers understand the term. So do tennis players. Ever swung a baseball bat or paddled a Ping-Pong ball? If so, you know the oh-so-nice feel of the sweet spot. Life in the sweet spot rolls like the downhill side of a downwind bike ride. But you don't have to swing a bat or a club to know this. What engineers give sports equipment, God gave you.A zone, a region, a life precinct in which you were made to dwell. He tailored the curves of your life to fit an empty space in his jigsaw puzzle. And life makes sweet sense when you find your spot.
But if you're like 87 percent of workers, you haven't found it. You don't find meaning in your work--or you're one of the 80 percent who don't believe their talents are used. What can you do? You're suffering from the common life, and you desperately need a cure.
Best-selling author Max Lucado has found it. In Cure for the Common Life he offers practical tools for exploring and identifying your own uniqueness, motivation to put your strengths to work, and the perfect prescription for finding and living in your sweet spot for the rest of your life.
