Podcast Episode 14 Summary
In M4M episode 14, we have our first Moment for Mission Book Review!
If you give 10 minutes to listen to episode 14, I am going to give you a snapshot of an interesting foray on the subject— The book is Life on Purpose by Victor Strecher.
Victor Strecher works in Public Health at the University of Michigan. In 2010, after living with a rare cardiac illness for years, his 19-year-old daughter succumbed to a sudden heart attack. In his book, Life on Purpose, Strecher recounts how dealing with a chronically ill child and her eventual death changed his perspective on life and how he was to engage it. Reading this book you will find a mash-up of personal reflection, uplifting stories, and reports of recent science on the topic of ‘purpose’ that has emerged in recent years.

“The dynamic process of aligning yourself with your life purpose requires energy and willpower: wind in your sails to move you forward, and a strong rudder to prevent being blown off course.” Victor Strecher, Life On Purpose
Strecher concludes, “If I were you, I wouldn’t wait around for more research. I’d just get a purpose.” “The scientific evidence supporting the benefits of one is extremely promising, and, at the risk of sounding a bit alarmist, we need it.”
In so much of living a life-on-purpose, we must constantly be about the business of translating the KNOWING what to do into the DOING what we know!
