Are you suffering from “someday” syndrome–always waiting for someday when your schedule calms down, your finances improve, or your kids grow up so you can begin to live the life you’ve always dreamed of? Consider how your perspective would change if you found out you had just thirty days to live. After the initial shock, you’d probably resolve to squeeze all you could out of the days that remain. You’d stop wasting precious time, and you’d throw yourself into becoming the person God intended you to be. Why wait to answer the longings of your heart? You can live this way now, thriving in a life of passion and purpose. In ONE MONTH TO LIVE, Kerry and Chris show you how to stop waiting for “someday” and start making each day really matter. By taking their 30-Day Challenge, you’ll learn what it means to make the most of your time on earth and live life with no regrets. In ONE MONTH TO LIVE, learn the four principles for living a no-regrets life: Live Passionately (living each day as if it were your last); Love Completely (showing others love that transcends and transforms); Learn Humbly (growing through your problems and pain); and Leave Boldly (creating a legacy that will impact generations). ONE MONTH TO LIVE explores these universal principles and provides questions for reflection to help you examine the core areas of your life and ultimately live the life you were made for.

"I liked how this book emphasizes being in the moment and making one aware of the priorities that matter most in life. Each chapter started with some great quotes. I have always liked this one from an anonymous source: "Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.""

— Michele, 1/16/2014" Great life-changing book. I borrowed it from the library, but would like to buy it. "
— Terrie, 1/14/2014" Not what I was expecting, I was thinking it would have day by day items to do, It seemed it was more metaphysical than psychological "
— Anthony, 1/14/2014" live life to the fullest! "
— Jenice, 1/13/2014" This book is great if one is disciplined and ready to make serious changes. No procrastinating when reading this book at all. I read and followed through for about 12 days and I finished it but it didn't really inspire me. "
— Celsa, 1/11/2014" Definitely helps put life and priorities into perspective. Very helpful in focusing on having a purpose filled life. "
— Jennifer, 11/28/2013" Stunning! One of the best christian books i've ever read. "
— Danail, 11/14/2013" Great book filled with reminders of how God wants us to live our lives. Read it with Coopie and Mom and they loved it, too! "
— Mary, 11/10/2013" This book will make you think about your life and living it to the fullest. "
— Jess, 11/4/2013" A book I read in conjunction with a sermon series ongoing at our church. I enjoyed the book, but I struggled with the exercises, as I always do in books of this type. Which is why I don't read them very often :) "
— Stacy, 8/28/2013" Too much bible and preaching for me. "
— Beverly, 7/2/2013" This book has a lot to offer if you are open to thinking about your life. With all the recent deaths in my family I felt it helped me look at the present in a different way. "
— KrisT, 3/27/2013" This is a book that I will return to often for its wealth of thought-provoking insight. "
— Benita, 3/2/2013" Good content about priorities, but I have to agree that the delivery just wasn't right. I noticed as I lived like this while reading it, it just went too far with too much. If you always live like this, you would probably go insane. "
— Jamison, 2/12/2013" Good resource for reflection - what if we only had one month to live? "
— Wayne, 11/27/2012" All we have is today to make a difference on this Earth. Make the most of it. "
— Jeff, 8/21/2012" The message is great but the delivery is horrible. I couldn't stand this book with its analogies and patronising (at times) delivery. I know this was such a help to friends of mine but if I hear 'roller coaster' mentioned in describing life one more time..... "
— Sheree, 7/10/2012" This book is AWESOME so far. It talkes about if you had one month to live, how would you live your life differently? Why aren't you living it like that now? You are not immortal, you could die tomorrow. Anyway, a wonderful read so far! I really recommend it! "
— Jennifer, 5/3/2012" Any positive ideas that I might have gained from this book were mired in heavy religious indoctorination. "
— Lynda, 12/23/2011" This book changed my perspective on life and how we live it. I was amazed!! "
— Jamie, 3/24/2011" This book literally changed the way I am living mu life. I enjoyed the style of writing and the Scripture references. I would recommend it to everyone. "
— Leah, 2/21/2011" Good resource for reflection - what if we only had one month to live? "
— Wayne, 2/5/2011" Great book filled with reminders of how God wants us to live our lives. Read it with Coopie and Mom and they loved it, too! "
— Mary, 6/29/2010" This book has a lot to offer if you are open to thinking about your life. With all the recent deaths in my family I felt it helped me look at the present in a different way. "
— KrisT, 6/4/2010" I couldn't stop highlighting almost every line in this book - 30 chapters I will read over and over again to remind myself how God wants me to live life! "
— Sue, 3/24/2010" This book definitely caused me to think about living with no regrets. We are never guaranteed tomorrow. So we ought to live that way! <br/> <br/>The reason I gave it 3 stars is because when reading this book while watching the video, it all gets a little repetitive. "
— Courtney, 2/2/2010" It's an interesting devotional type of book. "
— Leslie, 12/31/2009" Definitely helps put life and priorities into perspective. Very helpful in focusing on having a purpose filled life. "
