Here's a little quote from the book.

"Now we see that in creating us for his glory, God is creating us for our highest joy.
He is most glorified in us when we are most satisfied in him. … God created us to live with a single passion to joyfully display his supreme excellence in all the spheres of life.
The wasted life is the life without this passion."
(pp.36-37)

Yay! I'm excited!! =D
