Pages clean, white and crisp. Unused and unmarked book.; Hardcover; 0.83 x 8.30 x 5.68; 192 pages; According to Bob Buford, broaching midlife doesn't have to be a crisis. In fact, in Half Time, Buford insists that it is actually an opportunity to begin the better half of life. The first half is busy with "getting and gaining, earning and learning, " doing what you can to survive, while clawing your way up the ladder of success. The second half of life should be about regaining control, calling your own shots, and enjoying "God's desire ... For you to serve him just by being who you are, by using what he gave you to work with. " What lies between the two is "halftime. " Buford argues that whether you are a millionaire, a manager, or a teacher, you will one day have to transition from the struggle for success to the quest for significance. Halftime, then, is a quiet time of deliberate decision-making, restructuring, and passionate contemplation of your heart's deepest desires. Buford's writing is grounded in the real-life experience of success and failure, and most poignantly, the death of his son. While he has led a very successful life in the eyes of the world, Buford's personal stories reveal that his faith in Christ is his central priority. Instead of a transition to be feared, Buford makes midlife an introspective journey of abundance that will unleash God's best for you. --Jill Heatherly .
