Book Review 110513LIMITLESS LIFE: You Are More than Your Past When God Holds Your Future
By Derwin L. Gray
Thomas Nelson, 978-1-4002-0536-3, PB, 226 pages, $15.99
   Have you been tagged with a potential-limiting identity? All of us bear the shame of unwanted labels. Gray guides us down the path from limited to limitless with wisdom for Christians of all stages, particularly males.
  Despite success as an NFL player and mega-church pastor, Gray is no stranger to the damage of limiting labels. He utilizes scriptural, personal, and narrative anecdotes to support his crucial message. Scripture passages are excellently selected for pertinent reference, though occasionally overanalyzed. The engaging writing rarely drags, and the "transformation moments" ending every chapter offer opportunities for practical application.
    Though Derwin relies heavily on Christian success stories, he avoids prosperity theology. In fact, he speaks poignantly against the mindset of self-serving religion. My only serious complaint is some of his statistics lack supportive references (page 102). Overall, I recommend this book wholeheartedly, specifically for men's Bible studies. It shares an essential message.
