About the book
Rick Warren, a Christian pastor, wrote a Bible study meant to be read over 40 days, one short chapter a day, setting out what he presents as God's five purposes for human life. The chapters are grouped into six sections covering worship, fellowship, discipleship, ministry and mission, after an opening section on why people are here at all. Each chapter ends with a personal application: a verse to memorize, a point to reflect on and a question to carry through the day. Warren called it an anti-self-help book. Later versions added two chapters on envy and people pleasing, and an expanded edition includes video introductions and audio Bible study. It is a sequel to his The Purpose Driven Church.
Visual marketer Robert Katai, founder of Instagramology, counts it among the books he can reread because it reminds him of his purpose in life and work. Class Living founder Lilian Ong says it gave her clarity and showed her how her S.H.A.P.E can point to purpose.

I have 2 books that resonate with me and my work. The first one is a book written by Rick Warren called “The Purpose-Driven Life” and the second one is “Purple Cow” by Seth Godin. These are the books that I can read over and over again, because they always remind me what’s my purpose in this life, in my daily job and what I can do with my projects and work to create a purple cow effect.

I gained clarity and a different perspective of living a life with purpose. I learned that how we are “wired” or our S.H.A.P.E can help us find the purpose of our life.
