Item Description...
Product Description No one wants to end life's journey wondering: Did my life count for something? Did I have a reason for being here? The stories in this book show that for people of all ages, income levels, and expertise, the answer can be a resounding "Yes!" From extraordinary examples --- relief efforts in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina or work in refugee camps in Afghanistan --- to localized, everyday actions, the authors demonstrate that living a life of service to others, and seeing how lives are changed as a result, establishes the meaning and significance all humans long for. Moreover, the book provides strategies for creating a purposeful life through daily service. The authors prove that the ability to find fulfillment is within reach, and that the discovery is waiting to be made in homes, workplaces, communities, neighborhoods, and schools all across America.

 | Uplifting, Encouraging and Inspiring. Mar 29, 2007 |
Confronted with war, famine and tragedy, so many of us feel powerless. We want to help, but don't know how or where, and fear we have neither time nor resources.
Morsh, who directs one of the country's largest relief agencies, insists that everyone has something to give, and that we can all do something. Here, he shows us how, in simple ways. Uplifting, encouraging and inspiring. | | |  | An Excellent Book Aug 5, 2006 |
| I really enjoyed reading this book. The Authors did a great job of telling these amazing stories. I have heard of the organization that Dr. Morsch started and of all the great things they have done. I would encourage everyone who feels like there is something missing in their life or anyone that is searching for lifes meaning to read this. There really is power that comes from serving others. | | |  | The Power of Serving Others Jul 25, 2006 |
This book has inspired me to take action in serving others. Many times I have good intentions, but do not follow through with action. Recently when I mowed my lawn I noticed that my neighbors grass was extremely long and needed to be mowed. She is a widow and I just felt like I needed to serve her, so this time my intentions became action and I mowed her lawn also. I was really tired mowing two large lawns, ut it justfelt good and right to serve others. I'm still learning at 71 years of age, and I enjoyed reading this book. | | |  | Great book, challenging Jul 19, 2006 |
I picked this book up after it was recommended by one of my favorite authors, Donald Miller. It's short but does a great job of sharing the authors' hearts concerning learning to see peoples' needs and further, figuring out ways in which we can meet those needs.
The stories which are told throughout the book represent a great deal of experience and wisdom (acquired through great effort and much work). The authors are careful to remind their readers of three important principles throughout:
1. Everyone has something to give. 2. Most people are willing to give when they see the need and have the opportunity. 3. Everyone can do something for someone right now.
Many of us dream about a changed world. Instead of dreaming of the big, daunting picture, these authors are inviting us all to make those changes by meeting one need at a time...needs which are undoubtedly present wherever we might find ourselves...and needs which we undoubtedly are able to at least begin to meet when we become willing to engage them. | | | Write your own review about The Power of Serving Others: You Can Start Where You Are
