Five Things You Must Know Before You Die
Original Air Date: December 23, 2007
Show Category:
Life/Misc
Show Description: I came across John Izzo's new book Five Things You Must Know Before You Die. I have to say, it is an impressive book. So often in life it becomes easy to get caught up in the little things that really don't matter in life. John does a great job of figure out how to forget the little things and focus on what makes life truly fulfilling.

Quotes to Live By
"I am trying here to prevent anyone saying the really foolish thing that people often say about Him [Jesus]: 'I'm ready to accept Jesus as a great moral teacher, but I don't accept His claim to be God.' That is the one thing we must not say. A man who was merely a man and said the sort of things Jesus said would not be a great moral teacher. He would either be a lunatic - on a level with the man who says he is a poached egg - or else he would be the Devil of Hell. You must make your choice. Either this man was, and is, the son of God: or else a madman or something worse."
-C.S. Lewis
