If you want to make the best out of your life, read this book!
Rev Canon J John

A refreshingly clear and profound discussion of a character trait with which many of us struggle. RT Kendall explains that God does not call us to suppress all ambition, and that our God-given drives can even motivate us to do his will. But our efforts and goals must become God-oriented, so that a love for the glory of God eclipses all.

Format: Paperback

Ambition – the desire to be the best – is one of the passions that fuels Western Society.  Many of mankind’s greatest advances have been achieved through ambitious men and women.  And yet the cost is often a trail of neglected families, discarded friendships, and compromised values.

In this profound and wise discussion, RT Kendall argues that God does not call us simply to suppress all ambition.  In fact it is often that very same trait which he uses to motivate a man or woman to do his will. Our God-given ambition must become God-oriented, so that a love for the Glory of God eclipses our all.
