The spiritual premise in The Purpose-Driven Life is that there are no accidents---God planned everything and everyone. Therefore, every human has a divine purpose, according to God's master plan. Like a twist on John F. Kennedy's famous inaugural address, this book could be summed up like this: "So my fellow Christians, ask not what God can do for your life plan, ask what your life can do for God's plan." Those who are looking for advice on finding one's calling through career choice, creative expression, or any form of self-discovery should go elsewhere. This is not about self-exploration; it is about purposeful devotion to a Christian God. The book is set up to be a 40-day immersion plan, recognizing that the Bible favors the number 40 as a "spiritually significant time," according to author Rick Warren, the founding pastor of Saddleback Church in Lake Forest, California, touted as one of the nation largest congregations. Warren's hope is that readers will "interact" with the 40 chapters, reading them one day at a time, with extensive underlining and writing in the margins. As an inspirational manifesto for creating a more worshipful, church-driven life, this book delivers. Every page is laden with references to scripture or dogma. But it does not do much to address the challenges of modern Christian living, with its competing material, professional, and financial distractions. Nonetheless, this is probably an excellent resource for devout Christians who crave a jumpstart back to worshipfulness. --Gail Hudson
Book Description
The most basic question everyone faces in life is "Why am I here?". What is my purpose? Self-help books suggest that people should look within, at their own desires and dreams, but Rick Warren says the starting place must be with God—and His eternal purpose for each life. Real meaning and significance comes from understanding and fulfilling God’s purposes for putting us on earth.
"The Purpose-Driven Life" takes the groundbreaking message of the award-winning "Purpose-Driven Church" and goes deeper, applying it to the lifestyle of individual Christians. This book helps readers understand God’s incredible plan for their lives. Warren enables them to see “the big picture” of what life is all about and begin to live the life God created them to live.
Download Description
Another Landmark Book by Rick Warren. You are not an accident. Even before the universe was created, God had you in mind, and he planned you for his purposes. These purposes will extend far beyond the few years you will spend on earth. You were made to last forever! Self-help books often suggest that you try to discover the meaning and purpose of your life by looking within yourself, but Rick Warren says that is the wrong place to start. You must begin with God, your Creator, and his reasons for creating you. You were made by God and for God, and until you understand that, life will never make sense. This book will help you understand why you are alive and God's amazing plan for you-both here and now, and for eternity. Rick Warren will guide you through a personal 40-day spiritual journey that will transform your answer to life's most important question: What on earth am I here for? Knowing God's purpose for creating you will reduce your stress, focus your energy, simplify your decisions, give meaning to your life, and, most importantly, prepare you for eternity. The Purpose-DrivenT Life is a blueprint for Christian living in the 21st century-a lifestyle based on God's eternal purposes, not cultural values. Using over 1,200 scriptural quotes and references, it challenges the conventional definitions of worship, fellowship, discipleship, ministry, and evangelism. In the tradition of Oswald Chambers, Rick Warren offers distilled wisdom on the essence of what life is all about. This is a book of hope and challenge that you will read and re-read, and it will be a classic treasured by generations to come.

insightful, filled with truth.......2007-10-02
this book is full of quotes from the Bible, telling how God wants us to live. i especially appreciated the use of several different translations and paraphrases- it really firmed up my understanding of passages i had just heard many times, but not totally grasped.
Great Book!.......2007-09-29
If your willing to devote a few minutes a day for 40 days, Rick Warren can lead you to a better life. Other than the Bible this is the best book I have ever read. If you feel your life is missing something this may be your answer. This book shows that it's all about God, no one is an accident, we were made to be part of God's family, we are shaped for God's service, we have a mission and only through seeking God can we know why we are on this planet. Rick Warren is uplifting, comforting, and this book changed my life. I hope 40 days from now you can say the same.
Purpose Driven Life.......2007-09-04
This cd was purchased as a gift. The cd is well formatted and enjoyed by my mother.
ONE OF THE BEST!!.......2007-08-28
"Everything happens for a purpose..." "Glorify God...." This book strengthened my faith in God. After the Bible, this book is the best. Thanks God for giving me the oppurtunity to read this book =)
Outstanding.......2007-08-24
Rick Warren has hit the nail on the head. The question for every believer is whether or not they are "doing" what they were created to "do." What is the purpose of each individual. The Purpose Driven Life advances that in a great way.

In this first-rate "tape turner" Hoffman once again proves her powers as a storyteller. Dialogue rings remarkably true in this reading by Susan Ericksen, which also brings out the incisive details and keen observations on nature, both human and otherwise, that Hoffman carefully deploys in this masterful narrative.
When March Murray travels East with her teenage daughter to attend the funeral of the beloved housekeeper who looked after her when she was growing up, March's past comes rushing up to meet her. The present is quickly dominated by the lurking presence of her former lover, Hollis, who has patiently awaited her long overdue return. The tale is populated by those for whom love brings more sorrow than happiness: a woman afraid to commit to a relationship, a husband in love with someone other than his wife, two young people who fall for each other only to find they are close relatives, and the self-destructing love of Hollis and March. While love has the power to transform those who fall under its spell--devotion to an old racehorse turns March's daughter, a sullen teenager, into a strong young woman--the love March herself suffers robs her of nearly all sense and goodness. Hoffman deftly weaves her characters' stories against a vivid New England landscape where the past always has a grip on the present. And the listener is left at the end both satisfied and longing to hear more. --Anne Depue

Hoffman's book is a great introduction to her writing style.
I enjoyed this book more than I originally thought.
The story takes a twist, which I did enjoy.
Rip Off of "Wuthering Heights".......2007-06-11
Do yourself a favor: read the beautifully written classic "Wuthering Heights" by Emily Bronte instead of "Here On Earth". The first is a work of genius; the second is a BLATANT rip off without the talent !! There is a slight difference in plot,a "what if" question one which every "Wuthering Heights" fan probably wondered, but that's it. Note the dedication page : "To E.B." I think Ms. Hoffman should have paid a TRUE homage to EMILY BRONTE , and the original story WUTHERING HEIGHTS. How can you basically take someone else's idea and not give them proper credit or homage????
Not exactly a love story.......2007-05-21
I've read many of Ophra books and generally you cannot go wrong, but this was a frustrating book in a lot of ways. It begins by talking about how scary a certain part of the town is. Maybe it's going to be a ghost story. Then it talks about a family, not exactly happy where the daughter, who becomes the main character doesn't particularly like her friends, hates her brother and adores her lawyer father. Maybe it is going to be a coming of age story. It goes on where Dad brings home a juvenile delinquent who sculks about but eventually begins sleeping with the daughter. The brother and his bully friends stalk the jd, tie him to a tree, beat and abandom him. Maybe it's a story about hard life and hate crimes. That is getting closer. The two young lovers, the daughter and the young boy become obsessed with each other and then the dad dies leaving an old will which gives the evil son everything. (I guess the author didn't realize that a testator cannot disinherit by fiat, but that's another story.) The brother sends the young boy to live in the attic, where he and the sister are having plenty of sex and becoming more obsessed than before. The boy leaves and makes a ton of money in various illegal ways, but doesn't stay in touch. The girl waits for him by her window for several years before marrying and moving to California. One of the characters, who I think isn't given a large enough role to care about her, dies and the young girl, who by now is a woman with a teen age daughter, returns to the spooky town. The young boy, who has grown older and bitter has returned to the town to buy up most of the property. He marries, beats and maybe or maybe not, kills his wife. The old girlfriend and he meet once again and renew their obsessive relationship. The story evolves into a stupid woman being brutalized by a psychopathic man. The brother becomes the town's drunken failure. Most of the characters are despicable but they all get their comeuppance. Pretty predictable.
I realize that this is an oversimplication, but the book really doesn't deserve more.
Terrible!.......2007-05-11
I was stuck with this audiotape on a long trip, otherwise I would not have bothered to finish it. Dull plot, flat characters, and uninspired prose characterize this book. Annoying writing, too, like continuously calling one character "The Coward" instead of by his name. As an exploration of abuse and doomed love, this falls way, way short.
Here on Earth.......2007-02-25
I found this book to be very boring. The main characters were not very interesting with the exception of the daughter. I just never really felt very invested in the plot. It was a very slow and forgettable read for me. It was also a bit too simple for my tastes, it belongs in the young adult genre.

Other people love it.......2007-06-09
I must be the only person on the planet who didn't resonate with this author's book. I still enjoyed hearing the author in the audio version, and I satisfied my curiosity about the national hoopla -- but I can't say I was inspired, motivated or entertained. I gave the set away to friends who are in awe of author Rick Warren.
Enormously Helpful.......2006-04-15
I was very surprised at how well I connected with "Purpose Driven Life". I'm not a born-again Christian; I'm just a regular guy. I never thought how all the little details in my life were created for God's purpose. But a lot of my thinking came together when I listed to some of the author's ideas.
I've always been a Christian, but I used to feel that a lot of chance and guessing played a part in whether you go to Heaven. I feel more confident that God loves us and wants us to go to Heaven. I trust Him. I also feel better about what to do here on Earth, because of this audio book.
great encouragement for anyone.......2006-02-25
Even if you're not Christian, this is something to consider. Direct presentation challenged my life view, and is helping me to refocus.
calming and peaceful.......2006-02-22
loved the book. loved the workbook. but hearing this author's voice talking is different to me then the written word alone. super job. non offensive to any religon. i would highly recommend this book/ cd's.

Book Description
Pastor Rick Warren's The Purpose-Driven Life has been both a commercially successful best seller and a widely influential book in the Christian community. As a rejoinder to the fundamentalist assumptions of Warren's book, Robert Price, a biblical scholar, a member of the Jesus Seminar, and a former liberal Baptist pastor, offers this witty, thoughtful, and detailed critique. Following the concise forty-chapter structure of Warren's book, Price's point-counterpoint approach emphasizes the importance of reason in understanding life's realities as opposed to Warren's devotional perspective. Price, who was once a born-again Christian in his youth, is in a unique position to offer an appreciation of the wisdom that Warren shares while at the same time challenging many of his main points. In particular, Price takes issue with Warren's use of numerous scriptural quotations, demonstrating how many of them have little to do with the points Warren is trying to make. An important section of the book shows that the popular evangelical notion of "a personal relationship with Jesus Christ" is utterly without any scriptural basis. Besides criticism, Price also provides many persuasive arguments for the use of reason as a tool for developing moral maturity and an intelligent, realistic perspective on life's highs and lows. Ultimately, the reason-driven life offers a healthier, alternative approach to wisdom and motivation, says Price, than the simplistic answers and feel-good emotionalism at the heart of Warren's prescription for life.
Customer Reviews:
A well reasoned response........2007-08-24
I will admit I came to this book already in agreement with much of what the author had to say. I have listened to the Bible Geek podcast by Dr. Price. The presentation was one of limited rancor and well reasoned. I have already recommended this book to some teenagers who had received "The purpose drive life" as a birthday gift.
Is it OK not to be a religious whacko?.......2007-08-14
This book really answers the question: "Is it OK not to be a religious whacko". The multitudes of people that have inherited going to church from their parents can break with clear conscience the habit. No longer do you have to sit in church, or feel guilty about skipping, when you are only there to pacify someone else's expectations.
It is the semi-religious moderates that facilitate the whackos. Their kinda-faith creates the space for the nutcase to hide from closer scrutiny. This book is the key to setting the masses of semi-religious moderates free, and also what will expose the fundamentalist whackos for what they really are.
The world is going to be a better place for everyone, and this book will be part of the reason why. Read it!
The No Reason Life.......2007-05-18
I must admit when I picked up this book, I did not read anything about it. I usually read reviews and such from your readers. I don't go by the advice entirely as I do read many unusual books that many people would not be interested in.
When I picked this book up it was because the cover looked very much like the book Purpose Driven Life by Rick Warren which was a very good book that I have given as a gift several times. I do think this is exactly what Robert Price had in mind to help him sell his book. Right from the start I knew this was not a book I would put my time into because I do believe the Bible is The Word of God. Here is a quote from this book that will I think say all that is necessary...."Let me explain the two other factors I mentioned that cast severe doubt on Warren's approach. My second ground for hesitation is that one can by no means take for granted that any particular book, much less the Protestant Bible, is a set of truths revealed by God. Few will deny (certainly I will not) that the Bible is a repository of ageless wisdom. But that is a very different thing from making the Bible as a whole and in every part a communication of propositions from God........."
I think this says enough and you only have to go to page 26 four pages into the book.
An Entirely Different Animal.......2007-04-27
I just picked this up at the library. I am neither a fundamentalist nor an evangelical, nor have I read Rich Warren's book.
The thing that gets me is that these people (the author and endorsers) associate themselves with Christianity, while they are really preaching atheistic secular humanism. It strikes me that the appropriate label for them from the scriptures would be "wolves in sheep's clothing" and "... in the tradition of the antichrist".
Clarifying.......2007-04-01
This wonderful book presents a clarifying overview of the weaknesses of the fundamentalist view of life. Price touches on many major religious and philosophical concepts. His stance is respectful of religion, though probably not so much toward Pastor Warren. In my opinion, this book is an excellent read for the sincere seeker.
Customer Reviews:
This is a BOOKLET, not a book, otherwise it is good...........2007-09-19
The way that Amazon describes this is as a BOOK, however, it is a booklet, very small, so I would NOT buy it at the same price again (way too much for a booklet) but I would spend up to a dollar on it.
The booklet itself is really good and would be easy to hand out to anyone and would probably be a great way to introduce new Christians or the unsaved to the ideas of what our purpose in life really is.
I was disappointed that Amazon touts this as a "book" though, so be forewarned.
Great quick read........2006-11-16
Although I have yet to read the full version of "The Purpose Driven Life", this book did spark the interest and moved the book hihgher on my prioirty list. I can't wait to see the furhter insights.
This little booklet can change your life, bring peace and understanding about many of lifes questions........2006-03-27
This short read drives home your purpose for being alive according to our creator, which is God in Heaven. Knowing the reason you are alive, will bring a greater peace and understanding of many things in your life. When you come to the knowledge and fact of why we are all hear on earth, the trivial things of THIS world will loose much of its grip on you. I would recamend those who have not fully given their hearts to God, to read this with an open mind. Also read it to the end. It is not a long read and to get the full picture of the scene this booklet is trying to paint, I feel you must complet it. I also have a comment to another review I have read on Amazon, he stated that this is for Christian extremests that believe God is the only reason we are alive - Much of what he is saying is from taking things out of context, also showing his lack of knowledge and understanding of the Bible - This person goes on to state his beliefs of what a relation ship with God should be, and what is good for him while he still lives his life on earth to his standards (Dont you think God should explaine these things to us? He does in a book that states was devinely willed to man, the Bible) What I would like to say to him or others that share these feelings is - (According to the Bible) Which is Gods word, his way he left for us to get to know him, with specifics on what it means to have a relationship with him and to live for him, also to be SAVED and enter into the kingdom of Heaven which is our true purpose and home. God is why we are alive, the verses that were used in this booklet are supplied in the back, so you can refrence for your self in the Bible (Rick Warren did not make this stuff up - God did) This Booklet touched my heart and was a major tool in a complete change in my life, I now know a few great things. Why I am alive - What my purpose on Earth and for eternity is - I have more peace, and found a new and much more fufilling way of Life. (Without all of the things, Society, TV, allot of music - pushes on you and makes you feel you need it) Funny thing is I have a questionand challenge for all. If our way is working, if our so called modern education is better and we are smarter now then ever. Why is Divorce at its highest? - Why is suicide at its highest? - Why is depression at its highest? - Violent crime at its highest? - Children fighting and being suspending in our schools at its highest? Drug and Alcohol addictions at their highest? ETC. It is because we have forgoten God, removed him from our society and no longer seek the wisdom of our creator. Instead now MOST not all but most people go to so called counsellors for help, with life, marriage, addictions ect. Look at how well that is woking, every negetive stat you can think of is at it highest for the most part, ever in history. All these stats for the most part are also, continueing to get worse. Maybe it is time we start to seek the wisdom of our creator finially again, instead of mans. You find one person over 50 yrs old, that thinks the world is even close to as nice of a place to live, as when they were young. Now one last statment. Accepting and giving you heart to God is not always rainbows and sunshine, there will be mockers and the Bilbe speaks of this. Through all of the trials I have had though, I also have a new hope that guides me though all in life. I cant tell you of it and have it mean what it needs to in your heart for you to be saved and go to heaven. God tells us we must seek him ourselves, that is how you will find saving faith. I challenge anyone who can see what is happening to this world, since we have removed the Bible, Prayer and the 10 commandments out of our schools and public buildings. To now try Gods way, instead of mans. This booklet is a small but great step. If you do decide to get a Bible to learn for your self, the only book written from the apostles and of the words from Jesus Himself. I recamend a King James version, it will be a little challenging for most at first. But it is the most accurate of all the many watered down bible versions availible today. I also ordered the full version of the Book from Amazon Called the Purpose Driven Life - I hope you all find the same Hope and peace I have, by excepting the Truths of the Bible and Rick Warrens Books 1. What ON Earth Am I Here for 2. The Purpose Driven Life. I now have a wisdom that I know will never fail me for life on earth, a hope to get through all in life that was never there before. I also understand that this physical life is not all there is and is just a blink of an eye, compared to eternity spent in Heaven for those who commit to and accept Jesus. Thank You...
Thank God for this booklet.......2005-01-04
This booklet is so great! It is a great way wet someone's whistle who otherwise would not read "the Purpose Driven Life". I have found that the two people who I've given this booklet now want to know more and have asked to read the actual book. It's concise enough to fit in pocket or purse and is great reading.
I highly recommend giving this booklet to anyone to introduce the book and discover God's purpose for their life. It is a great ministry.
'What on Earth am I here for?'.......2005-01-01
This is so Great! Everyone that I gave a copy of this book to read; has thanked me. Each has said that it has changed their life for the better.
I took the 40 days of purpose class at my church and read the book "A purpose driven life". This small version of the book gets right to the point and explains the purpose for our lives. Awesome book!

40 Days of Community.......2006-04-24
I have led the 40 Days of Purpose 3 times in the past 3 years and it impacted my life greatly. But, its impact is no comparison to the change the 40 Days of Community brought within. I have learned how to love God and others better! It also helped me administer church discipline better as a pastor in a way which is more Christ-like. The book is also set-up better than the Purpose Driven Life was. The 40 Days of Community workbook has the devotionals, journal, and small group notes included. You get three books for one! The book covers.... 1.)We're Compelled to Love God's Family 2.)We're Commissioned to Reach Out Together 3.)We're Chosen to Fellowship Together 4.)We're Connected to Grow Together 5.) We're called to Serve Together and 6.)We're Created to Worship Together.
He has done it again!.......2006-03-28
I loved this book as much as his Purpose Driven Life bestseller. Rick Warren has a way of writing that is simple yet profound in bringing out the most important points we must consider in our Christian experience. This book is vital in tackling the struggle we face in our culture that drives us to isolation and independence, when God's truth reveals that we function so much better when we do life together...involved with other people, committing ourselves to each other, supporting and encouraging one another and just being together sharing life through good times and bad. He shines the light on the Scriptures that urge us to do life together, and gives us perfect bites one day at a time to consider and implement daily as we seek to be more like Christ and live a life that God desires us to live....one that is focused on relationships. I found that as I made a commitment to other people in my Small Group Bible study, my joy and peace has increased ten-fold. Doing life together really is Better..Together. Thank you Rick Warren, and thank you Lord!

This is one of the best written, most comprehensive and accurate children's books about Alaska that I have found. The illustrations are well drawn and clever. This book holds the interest of young children and I would recommend it as a great addition to any young child's library.

Clear and simple introduction to Biblical church purpose.......2005-08-30
Excellent quick start to the book of the same title. It has a similar feel to the Purpose Driven Life CDs. It certainly whet my appetite to want to read the book ASAP.
A very biblical and balanced look at the Church.......2005-02-05
I was saddened but hardly surprised to read the mocking and somewhat childish review -- bashing, The Purpose Driven Church (review titled, Compromising God...). Missing from that review is even one example of how Rick Warren supposedly compromises the Bible in any way. As a pastor and graduate of Dallas Theological Seminary I was thrilled to read a book that makes the heart of Christ for His Bride (the Church) so understandable and applicable for the everyday Christian.
The mark of an excellent teacher is one that can take the complex truths of scripture and say them in a way that is understandable to the masses yet 100% uncompromising to the Word of God. Rick did just that. Truly, I am hard pressed to find anything in the book that was biblically off base.
To the negative reviewer I would say - remember, there was a time several hundred years ago when people were burned alive for translating the Bible from the original languages (Hebrew and Greek) and even Latin, to modern day (at the time) English. Hopefully, you're grateful for the Bible you have. If so, you have men of conviction and courage (like Rick Warren) to thank for it.
Excellent source for Christ-centered churches.......2004-08-13
In reading the previous review I concluded that there will be differing reactions to this book based on the readers' perspectives on the Bible and the need for Jesus in individual lives. Rick Warren is an evangelical pastor who believes that the Bible is absolutely true and accurate and that everyone needs the presence of Jesus Christ in his or her life. His Saddleback church congregation is (contrary to many modern Christian churches) focused on reaching those who have no history of faith in Jesus. I believe Rick does an excellent job in his discussion of effective ways that Saddleback uses to reach out to these folks. He is quick to point out that different congregations with differing demographics or area of the country will have to take these factors into consideration. He uses the five purposes which are the foundation for his book, The Purpose Driven Life, to show how Saddleback approaches worship, fellowship, discipleship, ministry and evangelism. Surely there is something here that any pastoral team can use to identify the needs of their congregation and plan for meeting those needs. The only negative that I felt as I read the book was my reaction to the author's references to other mass-marketed resources he has written, but if you can look past those references (you are not required to buy any of them) then there are plenty of nuggets here for pastors and church leaders.
Compromising God to Promote Warren's Ego.......2004-06-08
Here it is, Rick Warren's latest Purpose-Drivel ® Corporation's latest marketing ploy. The insistent promotion of the Purpose-Drivel ® Life is nothing but an affront to Christian decency and blasphemous attack on Jesus. So far, the Purpose-Drivel ® Corporation's resin cross, also created to pad Warren's Disney-esque Church hasn't shown up on Amazon but it IS available for viewing on his publisher's site. This latest book makes a mockery of Christianity and should not be considered by anyone who is truly intent on seeking God's grace. Remember, Rick, "the meek shall inherit the Earth!"
