Lord, Change My Attitude: Before Its Too Late

Using the scandalous Old Testament story of God refusing to allow the Israelites to enter the promised land, Pastor MacDonald pulls principles and applications right out of the text to identify my attitudes that INFURIATE the Lord (grumbling, complaining, etc.) and gives me practical ways to embrace attitudes that PLEASE Him (thankfulness, contentedness, etc.).

People who have read his best-selling debut, I Really Want To Change - So Help Me God, will be familiar with his very unique writing style. Think A.W. Tozer meets ESPN SportsCenter.

So get practical, get serious and get changing with this great book.

"Lord, Change My Attitude (Before It's Too Late)" concerns the need for us to be reponsible for our own attitudes instead of letting others or circumstances dictate how we should act. The book is a timely title, especially when you consider the entitlement mentality and blame others for our problems attiude so prevalent in society.

James MacDonald takes 5 different negative attitudes and shows how we should replace those with a better attitude. Here are the book's contents:

1. Replace a Complaining Attitude
2. With a Thankful Attitude
3. Replace a Covetous Attitude
4. With an Attitude of Contentment
5. Replace a Critical Attitude
6. With an Attitude of Love
7. Replacing a Dobuting Attitude
8. With an Attitude of Faith
9. Replacing a Rebellious Attitude
10. With an Attitude of Submission

The book is well-thought out and well-written. The reader will be challenged to examine his or her own attitude towards others and life in general. I personally liked MacDonald's writing style (simple without being simplistic, challenging, etc.) and thoroughly enjoyed the book.

Read, enjoy, and be challenged. Highly recommended!

This book is a revolutionary educational tool for the body of Christ. Our attitudes are the foundation of how we experience life. This book is easy reading and it is very action oriented. Every Christian should read this book and apply the principles, which are Word based, to his or her life. This an awesome book. Whoever reads this book and receives it will be eternally blessed! Classes should be offered in ministries based on this book.

This book, along with Pastor James's other book (I Really Want TO Change), is one of the best books I've ever read. He has a way of talking right to you - and everything he has to say are things that every believer desperately needs to hear. This book has prompted me on to seriously changing my attitudes. Any one who reads this will be blessed - and convicted!

Great, great book! His writing style is so personal, he uses a lot of personal stories and makes everything very practical. Easy to follow and I like how he gives you a few questions at the end to ponder. This guy is an amazing writer and even more amazing pastor. Check out his radio ministry: www.walkintheword.com
