Through the years of pastoring people and leading a local church, I discovered people wanted help to live life effectively. Whenever we asked them how we could help them, they would bring up the subjects of marriage and living purposefully.  

In last week’s podcast, I discussed marriage. In fact, podcast 60 was titled "7 Insights For A Meaningful and Long-Lasting Marriage." If you missed it, please go back and listen to it or watch it. Through forty-eight years of marriage with my wife Jeana, we have learned about meaningful and long-lasting marriage. Therefore, I shared seven insights about this subject that will help you. In fact, you could take these seven insights about marriage and share them with your Sunday School class or small group, and the hour would be filled with discussion and insight. 

I believe you could do the same with the content I am about to share with you, “Your Life Matters: How to Live With  Purpose.” Your time together in any setting and with any number of people would become meaningful with discussion and overflowing with questions. 

I have found this true: You cannot live spiritually fit if you do not live purposefully. Furthermore, without purpose, you will live life aimlessly. Hear me clearly: People want to know what matters in their lives. 

As a man in his sixties, I want to know that my life matters. I also want to know that I have a purpose and want to live each day purposefully.

I want to give you Four Dynamic Statements About Purpose. Each of these will help you live purposefully.
