1) Paperback Book What on Earth Am I Here For? by Zondervan Publishing Company. The best purchase I have ever made. How would you spend the days of your life if you doesn´t know your purpose? Thanks to the truths of this book, and with the Holy Spirit in my life, now I know what I am doing here on earth.¤

2) Paperback Book What on Earth Am I Here For? by Zondervan Publishing Company. What on Earth Am I Here For? this is a BOOKLET so beware, here I thought I was getting the book as mentioned....very unhappy about the description put on Amazon books¤

3) Paperback Book What on Earth Am I Here For? by Zondervan Publishing Company. This booklet is basically a collection of excerpts from Rick Warren´s wildly popular "The Purpose-Driven Life." Having not read PDL, I cannot attest to how much of the significance of that book translates into this truncated version. "What on Earth Am I Here For?" is simple, easy to read, and filled with some good thoughts. It´s not intellectual or especially profound, but lays out a series of helpful points. It is Scripturally-based and quotes the Bible throughout. However, some will be annoyed by the fact that many different translations are used, and the passages are quoted without specific reference within the text itself (it typically says something like "the Bible says..." and uses an endnote for the specific reference). But for an intended audience of non-Christians, skeptics, and the unconvinced, this approach is fine.

My complaints are two-fold. First, though not nearly as ridiculously as other reviewers suggest, this booklet does occasionally feel like a commercial for other "Purpose-Driven Life" materials. If this work does not stand on its own and requires further investigation of other books and resources, then it shouldn´t have been published.

Also, "What on Earth Am I Here For?" is a little too succinct for my tastes. I´m all for simplicity and abbreviation, when appropriate, but this booklet covers a bit too much ground too quickly, and feels rushed and insufficient at times. Though it was fine, I simply would have liked more.¤

4) Paperback Book What on Earth Am I Here For? by Zondervan Publishing Company. The way that Amazon describes this is as a BOOK, however, it is a booklet, very small, so I would NOT buy it at the same price again (way too much for a booklet) but I would spend up to a dollar on it.

The booklet itself is really good and would be easy to hand out to anyone and would probably be a great way to introduce new Christians or the unsaved to the ideas of what our purpose in life really is.

I was disappointed that Amazon touts this as a "book" though, so be forewarned.¤

5) Paperback Book What on Earth Am I Here For? by Zondervan Publishing Company. Although I have yet to read the full version of "The Purpose Driven Life", this book did spark the interest and moved the book hihgher on my prioirty list. I can´t wait to see the furhter insights.
