Just Do Something, by Kevin DeYoung
Subtitle: “How to Make a Decision Without Dreams, Visions, Fleeces, Open Doors, Random Bible Verses, Casting Lots, Liver Shivers, Writing in the Sky, etc.”
The theme of August seemed to be: it’s time to move forward. Walter Henegar recommends Just Do Something, by Kevin DeYoung as a helpful guideline, and we have to say, it’s really a good read.
The gist of it basically explores how our generation spends so long tinkering around, exploring our purposes, relying on our parents that we become timid. We have a tendency (unlike our grandparents and parents) to be paralyzed by the 1,000,000s of options for life paths. Do we have more options? Sure. Has our indecision gotten a little out of control? Perhaps. Just Do Something explores practical ways to move forward and encourages us to stop looking for direction from writing in the clouds.
