"Know who you are and be it." This is the central message of Bob Perkins' innovative concepts that will help you set a vision for your life by identifying and developing what he calls your "Core Motivator." Are you driven by a need to belong to a team? A desire for relationships? A quest for perfection? An eagerness to care for or to serve others? A talent for creating? A passion for giving? These are the Core Motivators that drive each of us-and the Keys to setting a vision for your life. This book isn't about your talents or gifts, or what you've learned over the course of your life; it is about who you are deep inside. Setting a vision for your life begins when you gain a clear picture of yourself as a one-of-a-kind individual. To do that, you must answer the question: what is your Core Motivator? The principles outlined in this book resonate with people of all ages. It is for all of us because we are all created in the image of God, and we are meant to live life to the fullest. Without a vision for our lives, we either live someone else's vision or we wander aimlessly-and the only thing worse than following someone else's vision for your life is to wander aimlessly! This book is also for those who think that life has nearly passed them by-who think it's too late to find significance in life and be energized by the work they do. It is for all of us-created in the image of God and meant to live life to the fullest. Using examples from the lives of those he has helped, Bob Perkins assists you in identifying the unique person God made you to be. You will learn how to set a STAR for your life and identify the Mountains you will climb on the way. These concepts will set you on the path to a full life based on your Core Motivator-the person you truly are. By building a vision for your life, you will celebrate your uniqueness with the totality of your life.

According to George Barna, uncovering God's vision for your ministry is not an option. It's essential for the most productive ministry that will accomplish God's goals for building his kingdom. Ministry leaders with a clear picture from God of where they are headed are much more likely to experience a successful journey. In this book, Barna uncovers how God has shared his vision throughout history, how vision is different from mission, common practices and beliefs that inhibit true vision, practical steps toward experiencing and carrying out God's unique vision for them, and ways to share and promote congregational ownership of the vision.The Power of Vision
