Powerful

After attending The Rock Church, the first church that has touched my every aspect of being in faith, and listening to Pastor Miles talk. I was, am ,in awe of reading the book "Do Something". He explains, preaches, and does so much to encourage people to do just that. Thanks to him and wife Debbie, that this book will, and has, continued to change the lives of people. He has made such an impact on my life. It is a great read. Ordinary people having to endure extraordinary circumstances. And just to know a little encouragement, and enormous amount of prayer in ones life, can and will, take you to levels of accomplishment you never experienced. This is a must read, and a must DO!!!!! God, thank you for placing Pastor Miles in so many lives. Anita Goggins

DO SOMETHING.... READ THIS BOOK!!!

This IS the NEW and improved "Purpose Driven Life"! Believe it or not, I started this book last night and I will be finished with it later tonight. The only reason why I am not reading it right this second is so that I can write this review. I am not a big reader... as a matter of fact, I don't care for reading at all. However, when I picked up this book, I couldn't put it down! It is a really easy read and has several short real-life stories that anyone can relate to. There are also links to a website where you can actually see the characters in the stories which brings the whole book to LIFE!!! It is so AMAZING!!! If you are only going to read one book this whole year... this is the one to read!!!! I will be buying my whole family a copy for Christmas!!! It's only a matter of time before this is the next #1 seller!!! If you have ever wondered what in the world you are here for or what your purpose is in life... pick up a copy of this book and you won't have to wonder any longer. Before you know it you will be off the internet, off the couch, and on to something much bigger... you will be more than motivated to DO SOMETHING!!!!

Doing something for God will change your life

"Doing something is one of the processes God uses to mature our faith and heal our brokenness and pain..." "How far are you willing to go to allow Jesus to give you a new heart, one that will obey God at all costs?" "If loving God is obeying, then loving someone else is helping them obey God." This is just a taste of what "Do Something, Make Your Life Count" has to offer. Miles' insights into having a life that counts for Christ through trusting and being obedient to the Holy Spirit's call on one's life and by encouraging us through examples from his own life, lives of people from the Rock Church in San Diego and from others he has met on his walk, are shared in an easy-reading, life-challenging and engrossing format that will, as the first reviewer wrote, light a fire in your soul to get up, get movin', and Do Something for Him (as we are all called to do). As an added bonus you can "meet" these people he writes about online as well, which makes their stories even more persuasive for taking action. "Each of us can be Jesus' hands and feet on Earth, reaching out to others in real and profound ways." This book also includes many suggestions on how to get started to "making your life count".....Highly recommended!
