Purpose Unboxed


One of the biggest question in the heart of every man is “Why am I here on earth?”, “What is my purpose?”, ”What is the meaning of Life?”. Many have sought for the answer to these quintessential questions without getting it. So, they just get by and survive. Somebody once wrote “I know that modern life is tragic in a sense, it has so much to offer and yet one is uncertain about where to head to... However, has anyone of you thought of a way to find some deep purpose in life?” Another young man in his twenties wrote, “I feel like a failure because I’m struggling to become something, and I don’t even know what it is. All I know how to do is to get by. Someday, if I discover my purpose, I’ll feel I’m beginning to live.”

I sincerely understand how frustrating it feels to live li fe and not find its meaning or your place in it because I have been in that address before. There is a story I came across that has highly influenced the way I think and I would admit is a background for this book.

On the other hand, I was also regularly experiencing the text of this letter in church settings, in such overwhelming ways, that I felt compelled to mention it in the final paragraph of the Author’s Preface: Click Here To Download The Book
