A Life That Counts Robert Hedlund

Everyone wants to be significant. It is why people run for president. It is why athletes train. It is why gossips gossip. It is why physicists lecture. It is why nations go to war. It is why capitalism works. It is why fans cheer. It is why the daydreams of many are thus occupied. The quest for significance - and our perceived progress in it - influences our view of ourselves and of the people around us. For some, the quest ends in disillusionment, cynicism and bitterness. For others, it ends in a life sated by the wrong things and the dawning realization that their achievements will rest forgotten in the past. But in truth, God calls each believer to glory. It is His will for you. And it is in your power, as a responsible decision-maker, to get it right or get it wrong. In this volume, we examine the teachings of the Bible on the question, 'How does one live a life that counts, to the reckoning of God?'
