First sentence:
"Sweet spot."
The title of this book really appealed to me on a rainy day in Glasgow when life seemed incredibly common. This is the first Max Lucado book I've read and I was most impressed. Using People Managemet International's 'STORY' method, Lucado guides the reader to discover their sweet spot - the spot in which they are using their uniqueness to make a big deal out of God every day of their lives. The book is split into two parts. The first contains Max's analysis of the STORY while the second, written by a representative of PMI, tells the reader how to write their own STORY.
I really enjoyed Lucado's lyrical writing style while finding the content incredibly relevant and stimulating. I haven't worked through the second part of the book but intend to put this book into the 'for further study' box to do later. I am blow away by the idea that God doesn't want to take away my passions - instead he wants to use them for His glory!
I would recommend this book to anyone seeking purpose in their life and I will certainly be looking for more Lucado books in the future.
9/10
For further study.

This book has come to the top of the 'For Further Study' bundle but I'm really not in the mood for it so I'm sending it out on a Ring.
Will be released to charity shop.
