Product Description
The Me I Want to Be by John Ortberg---the bestselling author of When the Game Is Over, It All Goes Back in the Box; God Is Closer Than You Think; and The Life You've Always Wanted---will help you discover spiritual vitality like never before as you learn to 'live in the flow of the spirit.' But if God has a perfect vision for your life, why does spiritual growth seem so difficult? John Ortberg has some intriguing answers to that question, and he has organized his thoughts and God's words into a straightforward and timely guide for living your best life in The Me I Want to Be. This book will show how God's perfect vision for you starts with a powerful promise. All those who trust in God 'will be like a tree planted by the water that sends out its roots by the stream. It does not fear when heat comes; its leaves are always green. It has no worries in a year of drought and never fails to bear fruit' (Jeremiah 17:7-8). Ortberg urges you to recognize your brokenness, understand that God is the project manager, and follow His directions. The author first helps gauge your spiritual health and measure the gap between where you are now and where God intends you to be. Then he provides detailed tasks and exercises to help you live in the flow of the Spirit, circumventing real-world barriers---pain and sorrow, temptations, self-doubt, sin---to flourish even in a dark and broken world. As you start living in the flow, you will feel: --- a deeper connection with God --- a growing sense of joy --- an honest recognition of your brokenness --- less fear, more trust --- a growing sense of being 'rooted in love' --- a deeper sense of purpose God invites you to join Him in crafting an abundant and joy-filled life. The Me I Want to Be shows you how to graciously accept His invitation.

 what's with the typos? September 5, 2010
D. Lee (CA)
Ortberg is a great inspirer and storyteller. This book does not disappoint. My gripes are more about the kindle edition. It has a ton of glitches, misprints, and typos in it.
Terrific August 10, 2010

A Great Read August 3, 2010
Angela
This book is a great resource for all believers to become the Me that God created us to be. It talks about relationships (with family, friends and especially God). It also talks about the essential quiet time that we need to grow in faith and in the Word. It talks about letting God flow in our work and letting God honor our work! What a testimony it would be if we all just let God in and trust that He has our best interests at heart whether personal or professional! Growing into the Me that God created me to be is going to be an exciting and worthwhile journey, won't you take it with me?
This book was provided to me by Zondervan as a free book to review as part of their book review program.

the author communicates Biblical truths in a relevant, practical style that is extremely engaging and fun to read...yet, is still deeply spiritual.
