Making the Most of the Rest of Your Life
|





Reviewed by the Deaconate and selected members of the church prior to use as an outreach item to a specific individual and generally accepted by those who read it as a very good evangelical message.





A no nonsense look at life and beyond. Helpful to get friends/relatives to think about Christ and where they stand with Him.





Very short, easy to read - time to think about the end of your life that is fast approaching





I'm not old, or not that old, but i bought this to give to my Grandmother. She hasn't commented yet, but i read it through and thought it was great -simple, clear and thought-provoking.





Book purchased for my elderly father in his 90s. Good overall, but think it might be better for someone younger than this.





"Never say Die" ... there's always time for even greater achievements in our work for the Lord.





Having always liked John Chapman's clear style, I was very happy to find out about this book, written especially for older folks who have not encountered Jesus before. Not so much about life now, but how to use what you have left to ensure you are with Jesus for eternity. He uses bible passages to clearly explain the gospel message and its urgent message.
I'm still praying that my parents will lose their apathy and come to believe. I hope they will read this book and take it seriously, but I can't control that part!





This book was a really good read and only takes about a couple of hours to read. A useful book to use with Christianity Explored. A good evangelistic tool could easily be given to any non-Christian or Christian friend.





It was a clergyman in his nineties who suggested to a discussion group that our next topic might be 'Making the most of the rest of your life'! All in the group are now reading it in preparation for our next session - both for our own benefit and to help in witness to others. John's writing is gently evangelistic, direct and full of humour - and the large print is a bonus. Definitely a book to give to older people to stimulate conversation about the things that matter most.





as i had been worrying for some time about reaching the older life this book put a refreshing and calming look at what happens next so to speak good read very informative





"I am 76 years old. ... the average male lives for 79 years. That doesn't leave me much time. On the other hand, if there is life after death, ..."
John Chapman's easy to read paperback talks of the New Creation (heaven) and what it will be like. He asks and gives an answer to two questions: Is it possible to prepare for that life, or is it totally a matter of chance?
This short paperback (57 pages, 5 chapters) points the reader to the relevant bible passages, (sometimes printed in full), which are explained very simply and clearly.
This reasonably priced book (£3.00) will encourage Christians to look forward with expectation, and is ideal to hand to a friend or colleague with whom you want to share the Good News of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Heartily recommended.





A well written thought provoking resource that my Church now uses as a free gift when we visit local Care Homes.





John Chapman has always been a great communicator of the Gospel of salvation. However, in this book he excells himself. who could imagine buying a book that has an accessable, plainly written, biblical theology, a clear explanation of the big picture of Mark's Gospel AND the Two ways to live outline within it. The print is larger than normal and there are only 57 pages in total. Not to buy this book would be a HUGE mistake.

I really enjoyed reading this book, and would recommend it for any age group. After all, none of us knows the date or the time we may be called to account. I gave my copy away straight after I read it - it only takes about an hour, so is eminently suitable for busy people and is full of wise advice. I shall definately be purchasing more to give away (and one to keep!)

This clear explanation of eternity and how to prepare for it, is perfect for older people: I ordered it to give to a friend who wondered whether, in his sixties, it was too late to start investigating Christianity. It is straightforward and easy to read, like all John Chapman's books, with good illustrations.
