Summary:
If God has a perfect vision for our lives, why does spiritual growth seem so difficult? Pastor and author John Ortberg has some intriguing answers to that question, and, in "The me I want to be", has organized his thoughts and Godś words into a straightforward and timely guide for living our best life. Ortberg urges us to recognize our brokenness, to understand that God is the project manager of our life, and to follow His directions. Ortberg also helps us gauge our spiritual health and measure the gap between where we are now and where God intends us to be.
