Everyone Dies, but Not Everyone Lives: Developing a Personal Rule for Life

by M.S. Bickford

Death is inevitable, but a meaningful life is not. You may find yourself in a life that is far less than you want it to be, but if you really want to live life in the abundance spoken of in the Bible, this book is for you. Saying you are a Christian is one thing; living the abundant Christian life is another! If you are like most of us, you need more focused help in meeting the daily challenges of living in a secular society--your values and priorities can quickly be compromised by the challenges, temptations, and even opportunities that steal your life away. A clearly defined and developed Rule for Life equips you to face these risks more confidently. A Rule for Life is a written set of guidelines and priorities which provide the structure for Christian spiritual life and growth. This book will help you develop a Christian worldview and shape your maturity as a person of faith. Begin to explore the importance of spiritual disciplines and how to incorporate them into your daily life.

A concise and easy-to-read guide on Christian principles concerning life choices, fulfillment and happiness. Although the book is aimed at Christians, Bickford does a good job of explaining the essential principles that apply to many religions. For those less familiar with the underlying theology of Christianity, Bickford's explanations will be illuminating, while preserving a very practical and no-nonsense approach to moral problems. A well-balanced perspective.

An excellent book with lots of information about developing a personal Rule of Life. However, several times the book mentions that resources, including printable forms, are available on the website, and I can't find any resources at the URL given.
