Daily Readings from Your Best Life Now
90 Devotions for Living at Your Full Potential

by Joel Osteen
Read by the author


      In his last book, Your Best Life Now, Pastor Joel Osteen gave readers/listeners "practical ways to begin living their best lives now." In this one he relays how many were touched in a positive, successful way through Your Best Life Now, and delivers 90 devotions in this audio to go with the book.

Osteen reminds us devotionals are not meant to be an "exhaustive treatment of a particular passage of scripture, but a way to inspire ardent love and worship of God." Osteen also tells us this audio book is a 3 month program meant to be a catalyst to change and improve our lives for the better.

Daily Readings from Your Best Life Now is made up of "motivational thoughts, inspirational messages, and scripture verses" listeners can apply to their daily lives and expect a positive change. The key, I’ve noticed, in listening to this is to be positive, even in hardship. "To stop worrying and find a place to dream. To get with others who are positive; who will build you up, and let you dream."

Osteen presents an optimistic, non-critical image. He uses personal examples, but does so in a sensitive, kind manner. He reminds listeners of their faith and how to build up their personal lives without insulting their intelligence or putting himself on a pedestal. With a word of hope, Osteen reminds us that God is a Progressive God, who allows each new generation, guided by their faith, to live a better life than the one before. Daily Readings from Your Best Life Now is much needed encouragement for one’s daily survival. Inspire many by sharing this one.
