Max on Life

About the Book…

We have questions. Child-like inquiries. And deep, heavy ones.

In more than twenty-five years of writing and ministry, Max Lucado has been the receiving line for thousands of such questions. The questions come in letters, e-mails, even on Dunkin Donuts napkins. In Max on Life he offers thoughtful answers to more than 150 of the most pressing questions on topics ranging from hope to hurt, from home to the hereafter.

Max writes about the role of prayer, the purpose of pain, and the reason for our ultimate hope. He responds to the day-to-day questions—parenting quandaries, financial challenges, difficult relationships—as well as to the profound: Is God really listening?

A special addendum includes Max’s advice on writing and publishing.
Including topical and scriptural indexes and filled with classic Lucado encouragement and insight, Max on Life will quickly become a favorite resource for pastors and ministry leaders as well as new and mature believers.

My Thoughts…

When I first started reading “Max on Life”, I have to say that it didn’t really grab me as other books have or as I thought it would. I started reading it as though it were for me, and after a few minutes put it down. I think this is mainly because I already have a strong Christian background and some of the questions it covers seem very simple and questions that don’t really bother me. Later as I thought about it, I realized that there are and will be many different readers and it will be something different for each one. There will be some like myself but then others for whom this book will present and answer real life questions they have. And as I thought about it a bit more and picked the book up again, I read in a new light - The light of this book serving as a tool for me to use in my contact and interaction with others. I feel it can serve as a guide for ideas when I am faced with others asking me similar questions having to do with my faith, God and many of other questions in life.
