      Lucado's message of self-discovery will help listeners identify their life drama or "script." His advice includes references to the New Testament, the Apostle Paul, and the books of Acts. Mark Bramhall's steady narration underscores the reasons that self-examination is important and explains how that effort adds clarity, purpose, and relevance to a life orchestrated by God. Bramhall expertly delivers Lucado's examples of how God closes "wrong" doors only to guide one to "right" doors. Bramhall's presentation of Lucado's recommendations for avoiding chaos and confusion by uncovering "the plot of your life" is genuine and authentic. He persuasively narrates a text that is especially relevant in the current climate of economic losses and high unemployment. G.D.W. (c) AudioFile 2011, Portland, Maine

      Lucado, called "America's Pastor" by Christianity Today, is almost more an industry than a mere writer--he has averaged more than three books a year since the late 1990s. In this, his only full-length new work for 2011, Lucado makes a pointed connection between the life journeys of his readers and the working out of God's will. He re-emphasizes the links among Jesus's humility and courageous acts, as suggested by the Bible, and our own stories. His book includes numerous briefly recounted life stories--his own, Nelson Mandela's, his mother's--to make the point that the human "story indwells God's." VERDICT While Lucado's theology is not new--incarnation and redemption are age-old themes--his approach is fresh and engaging. Likely to draw the interest of individual Christians and many church reading groups.
