I’m too young. I’m not good at anything. Remember that dumb mistake I made last week? My life doesn’t matter. If so, you’re not alone. The Enemy wants you to believe you’re here by accident or have nothing to offer. But that’s a lie. God has a special plan and purpose for your life. Through your interests, talents, and faith, you can make a positive difference in the world right where you are…right now! Part of the fun is discovering your mission-driven superpowers. While you can’t fix every problem, God can. With His help, you can bring light to a world that has grown dark and cold. Having a clear impression of your unique, God-given significance provides a sense of purpose that turns an ordinary life into an extraordinary one. So let’s get started! It’s never too early to step into your mission-possible life. Review: Driven and Purposeful! - Kim M, Educator My Recommendation Title: Mission Possible Young Readers Edition: Go Create a Life that Counts By A.J. Gregory and Tim Tebow Genre: Non-Fiction, Christian Recommended Ages: 4th grade– to Adult Favorite Quotes: "God knows the plot twists and turns that are coming, as well as the opportunities. Rest in this. The key is to start where you are. He is always giving us opportunities to depend on him rather than ourselves. When you don't know what to do, depend on God. Pursue the WHAT, and God will take care of the why and how." "Without a clear mission, you're aimlessly going through life without intent or purpose...God created me [us] with a purpose; to know Him and to make Him known." "Choose to trust him in every instant. And remember you have a specific role to play in bringing faith, hope, and love to a world in need." "Whenever you are forced to make a decision between purpose and preference, choose purpose. It'll win every time." Summary/ Review: Are you a Christian? Do you believe God has a purpose for you? If you aren’t a Christian, do you wonder what your purpose in life might be? Our youth are consistently being fed negative thoughts, self-doubt, and consistently comparing themselves to others. The effects are damaging. As a parent and educator, I see the challenging lives our youth lead, multiple times a day, both working in the secondary schools, and with our youth at church. I LOVE THIS BOOK! It is necessary for our future generation. I am honored I was chosen to be a reviewer. It had a huge impact on me both as an adult for purpose in my own life, but also, as a parent for my children. I loved this book so much I purchased one for each of my children. I highly recommend reading it together, taking it chapter by chapter, and discussing the details. Tebow and Gregory are excellent role models for our future generation. This novel encourages the reader to make every step in their life count. The author's narrative of his life changing stories and the stories of others, are relatable, moving, intentional, and impressionable. They leave the reader with a stronger desire to accept a more purposeful life, embracing God in every step moving forward. Sidenote→ I am a big Tebow fan, not for football, but for his foundation to support children with special needs. My passion is one in the same. This book includes some of his experiences working with these children which fosters empathy and builds faith in all of us! Thank you to Tim Tebow, A.J. Gregory, and Penguin Random House, Netgalley for the Advanced Reader Copy for free.
