The Jesus Mission by Steven Scott

In The Jesus Mission by Steven Scott, readers are faced with the fact that Jesus accomplished twenty-seven missions while on Earth, and He assigned four to his followers. Scott seeks to answer the question “How do I know what God wants from me?” The book is divided into three parts – intimacy with God, the way He wants it; the missions Christ has given to you; and what you never knew about Jesus that will change your life. The four missions Scott addresses are: 1) become more intimate with God, 2) accelerate your personal growth, 3) empower other believer to better follow Christ, and 4) impact the lives of nonbelievers. This was a challenging, well written book that looks at the common questions believers have regarding what to do with their life. While I would recommend this book to a friend, it's not an "all-time favorite" of mine.

I received this book for free from WaterBrook Multnomah Publishing Group for this review.
