Review of Max on Life: Answers and Insights to Your Most Important Questions by Max Lucado

Max on Life provides answers to 172 questions on various topics. Some topics are heavy duty- why are we here, who is God, life after death, and unanswered prayers. Max gives a one page answer, which may seem to be too simplistic to some.  However, I can see this being helpful to a newer believer-finding an answer and usually a biblical verse that they can reference. This is not a book for in-depth theological answers. Max also covers a lot of simpler topics, such as hospitality, worry, and getting out a bad mood.  I can envision using this as a reference book, because there is a helpful topical index in the back of the book.
If you’ve read other Max Lucado books, you may recognize that some of the answers are from those other books, so it may seem repetitious. I’ve enjoyed his other books, but as for this one, I would say it was just okay.
