What would you do to make the rest of your life really matter? With eye-opening insights and soul-inspiring truths, One Month to Live will challenge you to embrace the life God has entrusted to you and you alone, and to live it out moment by moment with wholehearted authenticity, honesty, and integrity. Each chapter overflows with inspiring quotations, colorful true stories, and questions for reflection. The four sections, which can be read over four weeks, help you examine the core areas inside you that long to be exercised and expressed: how you’re made to live passionately, love boldly, learn from your mistakes, and leave a legacy that endures for generations after you’re gone. Complete with uplifting action points, each of the thirty chapters– one per day in a life-changing month–offers you fresh strategies for overcoming habits that mire you in mediocrity. Open yourself to the challenge of embracing your mortality and being empowered to live each day engaged in being fully alive. I'm being generous giving this four stars.
It's more like a 3.5 or 3.75 star rating, but I'll be gracious (if you can pardon the pun). If I compare this to, which I've read multiple times, it pales even more. While not a 'bad' read by any means, it missed the mark with me because I already live this way, as best I can.

And, as the authors pointed out in the final chapter, that's the beauty of living, really living, a Christian life - you shouldn't have to change what you're already doing right because you are striving towards Christ's example. I definitely recommend this book to seekers or new or struggling Christians. In fact, I'm going to give my copy away to a likely prospect in the hopes of helping them see the light and spread the eternal good news. 'One Month to Live: Thirty Days to a No-Regrets Life,' by Kerry and Chris Shook, is a thirty-day challenge as follows: 'If you only had one month to live, what would you change.'
The book is separated into 4 parts: live passionately, love completely, learn humbly, and leave boldly. The chapters are designed as daily readings through a 30-day month. Both Kerry and Chris Shook write together, and this is what they conclude: 'You have been given an extraordinar 'One Month to Live: Thirty Days to a No-Regrets Life,' by Kerry and Chris Shook, is a thirty-day challenge as follows: 'If you only had one month to live, what would you change.'

Both Kerry and Chris Shook write together, and this is what they conclude: 'You have been given an extraordinary gift-your life. You have an exceptional calling-to be the very best you God created you to be.
Your goal is to unwrap this gift and use all that you've been given in the pursuit of what matters most-loving God and loving other people.' Unfortunately I found the majority of the book tedious, shallow and boring. The anecdotes and stories seemed contrived and fake, and did not bring any substance to the book whatsoever. The best section of the book was the last, and in the last two chapters you find the bulk of what is truly important-Jesus Christ as the ultimate example. The significant problem with the book, as with all self-help books, is that it assumes that if you were to live your life as though you had a month to live, everything would be better. Jesus is the perfect example of how to live our lives, and yet, He died a tragic death betrayed by all those he came to save, and all those he loved.
The authors would have been better to focus on how best to find joy in every circumstance rather than always asserting that life itself can be better. Generally I wouldn't recommend the book.
I received this book for free from WaterBrook Multnomah Publishing Group for this review. It's not that bad.it is very religious.but the ideas or concepts are good.

I think it is better done via a workshop or class sort of, but reading it on your own is fine it is a quick read but the whole point is you read one day a day.ie one chapter a day. Overall it wasn't bad, the writing wasn't great or anything but it wasn't about that it's the kind of book that's about the message as oppose to the technique of it. But regardless it wasn't bad at all. I'm getting tired of Christian books that barely mention the Bible.
This book quotes famous people more than it quotes the Word of God. However, it was a good inspirational book.
Really makes you think about your priorities - if you only had one month to live, would you live differently? The other thing that bothered me is how disjointed the chapters were.

Yes, they were organized into sections (Live Passionately, Love Completely, Learn Humbly, Leave Boldly). But within those sections, each chapter was vastly different, and often didn't seem like it really connected with the other chapters in the same section. If you're looking for an easy, self-help type devotional to read each night before bed, this is great. But if you're looking to really learn more about God, you should go elsewhere.
Moved by its title, thinking it had to do with having only 30 days to live, I found this self-help book to be a challenge of daily living to one's fullest potential. Its a book that can be with us for life, with its daily chapters (I choose to read it through and then come back to work on each of its 30 chapters for one week at a time to make that practice a habit to live with) offering insights for reflection and the challenge to make the result a part of our self, changing our life for the bet Moved by its title, thinking it had to do with having only 30 days to live, I found this self-help book to be a challenge of daily living to one's fullest potential.

It definitely changed my life, still far from perfection, but certainly better for having both read and then put into practice the concepts of fulfilled and happy living.
I consider my marriage to be just as strong and happy as the day we were married, but I also believe that a good thing needs to be continuously nourished in order the thrive. The title of this book intrigued me, as well as the challenge it presented to focus on a relationship for the next 30 days, so coincidentally ending just before Valentine’s Day. This book has been a joy and a pleasure to read every night, and food for my soul.

This book has been a joy and a pleasure to read every night, and food for my soul. The short and inspirational read was the treasured moment I longed for at the end of every day.
With the book being broken down into 30 segments, the portion to read every night was only a few pages, which I thought was perfect. It ended with several challenges—something to think about, write about, or do. A great “So What” moment at the end of the chapter to wrap it all up, and really apply to your key relationship(s). The first few chapters help you diagnose the relationships you want to improve, offering encouragement to those who feel a relationship is beyond repair, and pinpointing what things to think about with some proactive suggestions. I love that most of the readings and daily challenges revolve around changing the way we look at our relationship, looking inward at our role with much self-assessment.
I am always drawn towards self-help and DIY books, so the approach is one I agree with and gravitate towards. I don’t know if it was intentionally written this way, but the focus of the book so ingeniously and subtly shifts from the problem that lies between you and another person, to an inspirational motivating quest about how you would treat the last days of your life if you only had 30 days to love. I started reading thinking about the things I wanted to change or fix in my marriage, to feeling so empowered about the things I can change about myself to be happier, stronger, and better! Perhaps my favorite part of the book is the sweet religious insight about relationships and character traits of our Savior, Jesus Christ, throughout the book. These are so seamlessly presented in a way that feels completely applicable and personally touching, and not at all in a preachy manner. Usually I am somewhat disappointed in the way Christian books cram scripture anywhere they can, but these short and sweet thoughts were so pleasant to come across. This book is written so well!
The authors give caring advice, relevant personal short stories, and genuine concern for the readers. I felt it was 100% applicable, and I am considering making this book a yearly read for myself, pulling it out on every January 14th until February 14th. Well done, authors Kerry & Chris Shook. A truly excellent and inspirational read. Thank you for enriching my marriage! Carlos Lopez Mrs. Allbee English 2 Honors 4 November 2016 Book Review The self-help book, One Month to Live: Thirty Days to a No-Regrets Life, by Kerry and Chris Shook, shows how an ordinary person can live their life to the fullest in just thirty days.

The authors incorporate relevant anecdotes, questions that make a person think about their life, and strong Christian ideals in their writing style.
Kerry and Chris Shook have readers question their life, and they give tips to improve areas in a person’s life. One Month to Live focuses on these four concepts: “Live Passionately, living each day as if it were your last”; “Love Completely, showing others love that transcends and transforms”; “Learn Humbly, growing through your problems and pain”; and “Leave Boldly, creating a legacy that will impact generations.” To live with passion means the person cherishes life and the gifts it has to offer.
Loving others will influence other people by showing how positivity is a character trait in the person, which builds strong relationships as family, friends, or partners. Learning is a part of life, and part of life is to learn from our experiences to become a better human being, no matter how painful they may be. When a person dies, their legacy and who they were as a person will live on because they left their mark on the world, so the Shooks advocate to let life be filled with positivity. The book focuses on these four main concepts, therefore breaking down how a person can accomplish this. Their writing style is heavily influenced by their Christian beliefs, which serves to build a moving and intriguing book to change one’s life. An ordinary person may be viewed as tedious, but this book will change that by giving them the information and resources to improve their lives. One Month to Live made me reevaluate how I’m living my life.
Although I’m not an extremely religious Christian, the combination of God in the book to describe humans’ characteristics of imperfection, why He does what He does, and how we can let God in our lives to improve our lives surely helped to grab my attention in reading it. It’s purpose as a self-help book to help people is similar to the works of other authors who published under this motive. A theme in the book is live life to the fullest because we don’t know when it might end.
One Month to Live impacted me in a emotional and logical way because it made me dig deep into my life, which made me realize how I can improve certain areas in my life even as a teenager.

They even have questions at the end of each day for you focus on what you learned that day, and how you can journal about it. Everyday they give you quotes about relationships, and I personally enjoyed them.
I even shared a few with my friends as I read the book. I will also share with you all in March. The quotes also lined up with their everyday topics. However, the only downfall I found was that when I suggested this book for a review, I thought “One Month to Love” would be something about Marriage, something to “help” or a guide about it, especially with it being about February. It turned out to help with not just marriage, but with children, family, and other relationships in everyday life. One of the chapters that totally hit me in the face was “Practicing the Art of Being All There” Are you filling listening to the people you love when they talk, or you thinking about 100 other things as they talk, and you seem like you are there, but not really “listening”.
If you love devotional, or Self-help books, I would totally recommend this one. I loved it, and I am sure you will too. You don’t have to break this book down into thirty days, you could easily read it in a day or so. Disclosure: I received a free copy of this book from WaterBrook. I was not required to write a positive review.
The opinions I have expressed are my own. I read this book as part of a campaign going on at my church. A couple of the sermons were going to be based on it, so I figured - yeah, I can give 30 days to this book. The book was a little slow for me to get through.
Yes, obviously it's a religious book, centered in a life lived with no-regrets through Jesus. Did I take anything life-changing from this book?

The premise is, what would you do if you only had thirty days to live?
How would you start living your life? Muruga muruga om muruga muthamil mp3 song free download. At the time I read this, I was looking for a book that would really help me get over my 'midlife crisis' (which three years later I'm still going through). The whole 'what am I here for' and 'is this all my life is going to be' fears we all experience.
The ones that run through my head when I worry I'm not amounting up to everything I dreamt I would be. It's a self-help book, yes, but didn't help me work through any of those issues. In fact, it really didn't help me change my life into living 'every day as if it were my last.' I didn't find anything in the book to tangibly change how I lived, besides the reminder to trust Jesus with your life and that God has a plan for me.
Having grown up in a 'purpose-driven church,' I've heard that for the last 15 years. Overall, if you're trying to find something new and revolutionary (when, let's be honest, everything out there is new compilations of the best of what has come before), this probably won't get you very far. I'd suggest starting out with the 'Purpose Driven Life,' if that's the type of read you are needing. One Month to Love is a wonderfully written, easy to read book. Once a day you read a short, to the point, chapter and at the end of the chapter there are a few questions for you to journal and answer (or put into action). Honestly, this book is written so well! The authors gives amazing advice, and relevant short stories.

One Month to Love is not a book just about marriage. The book covers how to build three key relationships in your everyday life; friendship, marriage and parenting (though the principles and strategies can be applied to any relationship). One of the chapters that really struck me was Day 5 (Staying at the table); in which it talks about the ping-pong method. 'Communicating about tough issues is a lot like playing a game of ping-pong. In fact, table tennis is a perfect metaphor for two people staying at the table and hitting the conversation ball back and forth until they reach and understanding.Wouldn't it be incredibly frustrating if you were playing ping-pong, and every time you served, your opponent let the ball drop off the table and never hit back? You really wouldn't have someone playing with you; the other person might as well not be there. In the same way, nothing is more frustrating in a relationship than bringing up a difficult issue and the other person always dropping the ball.'
This is definitely a relationship book I would recommend to singles and couples; anyone who wants a deeper relationship with those they care about!! I received this book for free from WaterBrook Multnomah Publishing Group for this review. Please rate my review here.

However I have read better self awakening books. I felt the author assumed that his readers were extremely shallow readers and never had a struggle of morals or deep thought in their life. I found myself mildly offended quite often by the assumption that his readers never would have had a passing thought of good morals. I assumed that he was writing to fellow Christians, aren't Christians suppose to be moral and god loving/freaking people?
(at least according to other Christians, right?) Some time i felt his example were written as if to a three year old and I could almost hear his patronizing voice as he told the stories that were suppose to encourage me in moral growth. I gave the book two stars instead of 1 only because, I did grow from the book, but mostly through discussions with friends and family on how infuriating the writing was. The first Chapter/Intro really got me thinking and tryign to experince things to the fullest and make the most of my time. I found the challenges each day were too much to take in all at once. You would need to read one a week to really make a difference in your life. Some of the last few chapters really made an impact as well, but it was ALOT of things to think about, a little to heavy and the writing style wasnt my type of thing with comparing concepts to ice cream or roller coasters.

Some of the last few chapters really made an impact as well, but it was ALOT of things to think about, a little to heavy and the writing style wasnt my type of thing with comparing concepts to ice cream or roller coasters. I really do want to live everyday knowing clearly that I wont live forever and that I am satisfied with my time so far. I'm not asking for this but I loved the example of a woman (i think it was the authors mother) who had this diagnosis and was already living the way she would spend her last time. She didn't have to make any changes because she already focused on relationships and enjoyed all the little things we take for granted like the smell of coffee or a sunset or just a long hug. I want to enjoy my life completely and not get caught up in busy things that dont really matter. Money doesnt matter. People matter.
Our spiritual lives matter. When I first heard about this book, I thought it must be some kind of 'scare-people-into-repentance-and/or-righteous-living' by reminding them of their own mortality, so I was disinterested. However, once I got into the book, I didn't really find that to be the case at all. Instead of making a 'bucket list' (though, I admit, it does sometimes seem to be doing so), it really asks you to start living more intentionally.

I found that many of the passages really challenged me to let God have control of my life completely, trust Him and find ways to love and appreciate those around me. I did feel that, in some chapters, the authors did do some stretching of Biblical passages in order to fit the topic at hand, but overall, I would recommend the book to Christians who need to be reminded of the greatest commandments and how to prioritize their lives. I enjoyed reading this book which is written by my Pastor Kerry Shook. The format is very interesting, you are suppose to read one chapter a day as a daily reading.

Finished during SXSW, which I was too busy to blog the last few days. The book is written from a Christian worldview but in the practical, relevant, accepting and interesting style that is Shook's trademark at Fellowship of the Woodlands. Why only 4 stars and not 5?

It says that it's not just for romantic relationships, but I can't say that it added anything new to my relationships in general. Some of the stuff is straight-forward and it does remind us of things we may have forgotten along the way.

I really enjoyed this book. It really helped me figure out what was important in my life and what I could do without.
I was able to put things into perspective a little better in my life and reminded me that people are important and not to take my family and friends for granted. I really enjoyed that One Month to Live has daily reading and journal writing. The journal writing was specific, which suits me because I am not one to open up and just pour out my heart on paper.

If you are looking for a life changing book that is easy to read with practical advice and application, I highly recommend One Month to Live. This book asks the question, 'what would you do if you knew you only had one month to live?' The authors use Jesus as the example and draw four concepts from His final month on earth that they expound on through the course of the book. It's set up as a devotional, where you read one chapter a day for 30 days. Each chapter includes questions designed to help you think more about what you're reading and apply it to your life.

My whole church participated in this study (we did it leading up to Easter, but you could do it anytime). I really liked that this book helped me look at my daily life from a different perspective and figure out what really needs to be there. I think this is a great read! This is a great daily devotional. It's divided into 4 parts; each part focuses on a key principle for living a no-regrets life. Each day challenges the reader to focus on an aspect of the principle through the writer's elaboration on the principle and through thought-provoking questions.
My only issue with the book is that each day requires the reader to spend a significant amount of time answering the daily questions. It's almost like a course in school-there's a lot of homework.

If you pick up this book, be prepared to do some work if you want the benefits. It became immediately apparent that the authors are ministers, but I was willing to hear out religious references if there was other valuable content. I did indeed find a few tasty morsels of insight early on, but, alas, they ladled on a religious gravy that so smothered every chapter that it overwhelmed the taste of everything else. Chapter 3 opened with a long diatribe on Jesus and made it evident that the authors’ primary purpose was to proselytize. That’s when I slammed the church door shut.
