We are all searching for significance to ourselves, to others, to our community and to our world. Discover what three million readers have already discovered: that true significance is found only in Christ.
Robert McGee's bestselling book has helped millions of readers learn how to be free to enjoy Christ's love while no longer basing their self-worth on their accomplishments or the opinions of others. In fact, Billy Graham said that it was a book that "should be read by every Christian."
What makes this book so uniquely powerful is understanding that the journey begins in a very private place—your thoughts. “When I fail at something, I feel lousy about myself. When others do not approve of me, I can’t seem to get over it. Sometimes it feels like I’ll never measure up.”
These are the universal lies that trigger the cycle of self-doubt, robbing you of joyful living. Now, you can free yourself from these self-defeating lies.
One by one, The Search for Significance confronts these lies, dismantles them, and points you to a higher truth that is the source of life’s meaning. It points you to Almighty God—the source of life itself.
In this re-launch of this timeless classic, you will:
With a hands-on workbook and new, revised material, now is the perfect time to discover The Search for Significance. If you’ve already encountered its life-changing truths, there is no better time to explore them all over again, enriching your life in the process. Your own journey begins with this step.

"We read this book in our small group - a group of young women. I thought the message was a good one - one everyone needs to hear. I initially thought the book was going to be about finding your purpose in life, but it ended up being about changing your perspective, and how you view yourself. He repeats his point quite a bit, but I guess he really wants us to get the message :). The book was good for a study because there are chapters to read, and there are discussion questions in the back."
