'Soulprint' - Book Review

The author, Mark Batterson, pours the insight and energy into helping you experience the joy of discovering who you are and the freedom of discovering who you're not.  From the back cover it tells us the book 'Soulprint' encourages you to recognize and explore the five defining moments in your life that will determine your destiny.  Along the way, you'll find that you're not just turning the pages of a book.  You're turning the pages of your remarkable, God-shaped, world-changing life.

The one thing that we must remember is that we are unique; we are not like anyone else.  True, we can pick up similarities, especially when we are around someone for a time.  But remember, they pick up similarities from us also.  God created each of us wired differently and encourages us to remain unique and true to ourselves.  We need to remember the God-given identity that makes us unlike anyone else.

Do you ever find yourself wishing you were this person or that person?  Do you know that that person you wish you were is probably wishing that they were you?  Ironic isn't it.  Growing up I thought that and today I like me.  I believe that is a key obstacle that some of us need to do … like yourself as there is no one else like you.
 
There is discussion questions in the back of the book for your small Bible Study group and you can read the first chapter of Mark's book 'Primal'.
