The Last Arrow by Erwin Raphael McManus

The best way for me to describe this book is to quote a line within the book.  “This book has one intention: that whether you win or lose, succeed or fail, live a life of celebrity or anonymity, that when you take your last breath, you will know without reservation that you have given everything you have, everything you are, to the life you have been entrusted with.”  What does all this mean?  The author dives deep into the subject of leaving your past where it belongs, far behind you.  His explains that moving forward and taking the chances and risks is what makes our lives worthwhile.  He provides examples from his own life and family, from the bible and provides other peoples personal experiences for comparison.  While at times the book appears to be rather redundant, it is done on purpose.  To learn many of us need to have the lessons repeated several times.  The authors method of doing this provides a positive method of grasping his overall lessons.  An interesting quick read.


I received this book from Blogging for Books for this review.
