The Me I Want to Be by John Ortberg--the bestselling author of When the Game Is Over, It All Goes Back in the Box; God Is Closer Than You Think; and The Life You've Always Wanted--will help you discover spiritual vitality like never before as you learn to "live in the flow of the spirit." But if God has a perfect vision for your life, why does spiritual growth seem so difficult? John Ortberg has some intriguing answers to that question, and he has organized his thoughts and God's words into a straightforward and timely guide for living your best life in The Me I Want to Be. This book will show how God's perfect vision for you starts with a powerful promise. All those who trust in God "will be like a tree planted by the water that sends out its roots by the stream. It does not fear when heat comes; its leaves are always green. It has no worries in a year of drought and never fails to bear fruit" (Jeremiah 17:7-8). Ortberg urges you to recognize your brokenness, understand that God is the project manager, and follow His directions. The author first helps gauge your spiritual health and measure the gap between where you are now and where God intends you to be. Then he provides detailed tasks and exercises to help you live in the flow of the Spirit, circumventing real-world barriers--pain and sorrow, temptations, self-doubt, sin--to flourish even in a dark and broken world. As you start living in the flow, you will feel: -- a deeper connection with God -- a growing sense of joy -- an honest recognition of your brokenness -- less fear, more trust -- a growing sense of being "rooted in love" -- a deeper sense of purpose God invites you to join Him in crafting an abundant and joy-filled life. The Me I Want to Be shows you how to graciously accept His invitation.… (mer)

Recommended and given to me by a dear relation, I hope it's all I've been told. So far I'm disappointed that Ortberg doesn't credit Parker Palmer for similar insights presented in his book Let your Life Speak. Citation matters.

I appreciate Ortger's encouraging approach. His writing generally works to make a point but I was distracted by organization, wondering why random information or a certain quote got plunked in the text. ( )

Though it may sound like a self-help collection, Ortberg instead provides a roadmap for personal transformation. Through exploring topics such as Finding My Identity, Flowing with the Spirit and Renewing My Mind, those who may struggle with perfectionism, drivenness and self-sufficiency will be challenged to consider a new way of being - not simply doing.

Excellent. John Ortberg at his best, encouraging Christians - new or old - to be the best version of themselves rather than trying to live up to anyone else's ideals. Sections on finding our identity, redeeming our time, transforming our experience, and more. Personal anecdotes enliven the text, and my only minor criticism is the rather tatty looking diagrams that were a mixture of computer-generated and (apparently) badly hand-drawn. ( )
