Acuff knows the reason why many writers' novels go unfinished - it's the same reason why gyms are filled in the first week of January and empty by the end of the month and why people stop learning a new language once they get past the easy parts. It's not just that people lose momentum or get distracted. People give up on projects when they fail to live up to their own high expectations and decide that if they can't do something perfectly, they won't do it at all. If you're going to finish, you have to kill perfectionism.

I hate writing a negative review, but the book could have been much shorter. He is a great, dramatic narrator. Though, there were many rabbit trails that distracted from the subject. It may be that my humor is just different from his humor, but the anecdotal stories didn’t help to make points, but just seemed to make the point drag on.

Today’s church needs this book! I needed to read/listen to something that would remind me of the bigger life we are called to live as Christians, and Vivian did exactly that and so much more. If you want to wake up from the status quo life, please get this book! She does a great job incorporating interesting personal stories and stories from the Bible, while also challenging the reader to think through application questions at the end of each chapter. Also - the author is the narrator, which is always a nice bonus!
