Acknowledgments

We are a sum total of what we have learned from all who have taught us, both great and small. I am grateful for the inspiration and wisdom of men and women of God and for the trans-generational sources and roots of wisdom they have left me.

I am also grateful for the many members, friends and colleagues at Bahamas Faith Ministries International whose faithfulness, prayers and patience inspire me to continue to fulfill my purpose and potential.

For the development and production of this book itself, I feel a deep sense of gratitude to:

my precious wife, Ruth, and our children, Charisa and Chairo (Myles Jr.), for their patience and support during my travels outside the home. You make it easier to fulfill Gods will for my life.

my father and mother, Matt and Louise Munroe, for their devotion to the Lord and to their children, and for their constant demonstration of love that inspired me to pursue the maximization of my potential.

my dear friend and brother-in-law, Richard Pinder, whose commitment to the work and the vision makes this project possible.

Kathy Miller, my gifted and diligent editor and advisor, who shepherded the book from its early formless stage to its present form, and Marsha Blessing of Destiny Image, who patiently pursued me to keep to the schedule and meet the deadlines.

the best friends in the ministry I can ever haveTurnel Nelson, Bertril Baird, Peter Morgan, John Smith, Kingsley Fletcher, Fuschia Pickett, Ezekiel Guti, Jerry Horner, Mensa Otabil, Cecil Lamb and Ben Kinchlowfor exposing my potential.

Foreword

Who am I? Why am I here? These questions are among the oldest put forth by honest men and women who are seeking answers to the age-old question, What is life about?

It is an unfortunate truth that many people live with a quiet desperation and some die plagued by the vague uneasiness that somehow they have missed it. Others wander aimlesslya few purposefullyattempting to solve the puzzle posed by life.

Many Christians have proclaimed that salvation is the be all and end all of life here. Salvation is certainly the single most important element in time and etermity, but there are many truly saved Christians who feel unfulfilled even as they agonize, fast and pray in an attempt to salve the nagging sense that there is something more to life. Yes, they know Jesus. Yes, many have been filled with the Holy Spirit. Still, the great majority wonder, What lies beyond salvation and the baptism of the Spirit?

In Pursuit of Purpose goes a long way toward answering these questions. No single book except the Bible can answer all your questions, but drawing from the wellspring of divine revelation, life experience and intelligent scholarship, Dr. Myles Munroe has fashioned a compass that can focus you on the path toward fulfillment, while providing the answer to the all-encompassing question, Why am I here?

You have not picked up this book by accident. You havent wandered here aimlessly. There is method to this journey and a solution may be at hand. Perhaps, you will find in these pages what you have been seeking for yearspurpose.

Preface

The greatest tragedy in life is not death, but life without a reason. It is dangerous to be alive and not know why you were given life. One of the most frustrating experiences is to have time but not know why.

From the beginning of mans history as we know it, mankind has been grappling with the age-old questions: Why am I here? What is the reason for my existence? What is the meaning of my life? Is there a reason for the universe, the creation and man? These questions are universal. They lurk deep within the secret chambers of every human being on earth regardless of their race, color, ethnic heritage, socioeconomic status or nationality. Philosophers such as Plato, Aristotle, Socrates and others throughout the ages have attempted to explore these seemingly illusive questions. For the most part, their efforts have ended in more questions than answers.

The deepest craving of the human spirit is to find a sense of significance and relevance. The search for relevance in life is the ultimate pursuit of man. Conscious or unconscious, admitted or unadmitted, this internal passion is what motivates and drives every human being, either directly or indirectly. It directs his decisions, controls his behavior and dictates his responses to his environment.

This need for significance is the cause of great tragedies. Many suicides and attempted suicides owe their manifestation to this compelling need. Many mass murderers and serial killers confess the relationship of their antisocial behavior to their need to feel important or to experience a sense of self-worth.

This passion for relevance and a sense of significance makes one race or ethnic group elevate itself above another. It also gives birth to prejudice and causes the fabrication of erroneous perceptions that result in grave injustices and the conception of abominable dreams and inhuman behavior. It also gives birth to tyrants and dictators who easily sacrifice the sacredness of human life and dignity for a temporary sense of significance.
