"The book should have been shorter, because 6 or 7 of the last 8 chapters were really not worth it. Otherwise it has some good thoughts and comments about living under God's call."
"I read this without realizing until the end that I was supposed to read it as a daily devotional rather than a cohesive book. This might have accounted for some of my frustration in the rather "haphazard" way it was written. If taken as an inspirational, it accomplishes its task."
"Excellent! I have given away many copies of this book. The various quotes from Winston Churchill so piqued my curiosity that I read Martin Gilbert's biography."
My relationship with this book was rather odd: I sort of dreaded going back to it every night, but as soon as I opened it, I was completely drawn in. I'm just not sure why I wasn't looking forward to reading it because it was very insightful and thought-provoking. Certain concepts (the noonday demons, the catch-22 of capitalism) really resonated with me, but other parts did not, so much. I would definitely read other books by Os Guinness, though. I appreciate how well-researched this book was."
