6/14/10 - One Month to Live, Part 2. The book "One Month to Live," by Kerry and Chris Shook, founders of the Fellowship of the Woodlands church near Houston, is a 30-day challenge to do just that - to live as if we were dying. They said that countless people in every stage of life say things such as: "Someday I'm going to go for all that life has to offer." "When I retire, then I'm going to enjoy life." "When I make enough money, then I'm really going to spend more time with my kids."
We all have things we want to do and experience, things that we'll do when we have the time, when conditions are better or when we get caught up. But in reality, how often does that "someday" come?
All too often, I've noticed that "someday" is "ne'er-to-come" day. "Someday. One day. When. If. Then it's over. When are we going to wake up and realize this is your life, right here, right now? Someday is right now."
5/24/10 - If you knew you had only one month to live, how would you live it? Would you continue on as always, or would you make changes to make the most of the time you have left?
This is just one of the questions authors Kerry and Chris Shook, founders of a megachurch outside Houston, present in their New York Times best-seller book "One Month to Live: Thirty Days to a No-Regrets Life."
