About the Book

Ever wonder if it makes sense to live your life as if it's not important? Ever wonder why you shouldn't do what is in your own best interest? This book explores the confusion created for Christians by the term selfish and what a lifestyle lived with your own eternal interests in mind would look like. Doing what is best for you makes sense, so why do so many preachers tell you to deny yourself and live as if you were not important? This book will clear away the confusion and myths about "self" and perhaps have you approaching your Christian life from a totally new perspective!
About the Author: I grew up in a small town in West Virginia. I became a Christian as a teenager after attending youth activities at a local church. After high school I attended the University of Richmond and completed a double major in Accounting and Economics and have worked in the accounting field ever since. I have served God in different ways throughout my life. I have served as a Deacon, as a member of a Pastor Search Committee, as a Stewardship Chair, and in various service projects. My most rewarding service was the approximately 10 years I served as a Youth leader. There were many special experiences during that time and quite a few bonds built. I learned a lot and hopefully imparted a little God-centered wisdom as well. I am an independent, logical thinker. I question everything. I believe questions lead to the truth, which can only lead me closer to God. I like to challenge the norm if it doesn't make sense and I push back when I receive pressure to conform for the comfort of others. Thus, though I attend a Baptist Church, I really don't consider myself in denominational terms. I am a Christian. I have not sworn my allegiance to a political party. I am an American. I am, at my core, somebody who tries to have an open mind and form my own judgments based on all the evidence I see. I try very hard to understand different points of view. I wrote this book because things I heard said casually by pastors and Christians didn't make sense to me. At the center was the idea that I was not important. If that's the case, then why try so hard to tell me how to live? The fact is that my soul is all that I have that I take with me after death and it is extremely important. I should do what is best for it all the time. Doing what is best for my eternal soul requires wisdom, foresight, and courage. The most common mistakes I make are not because I don't know what I should, but because I lack the courage to do it. God wants what is best for you. And you should too. I hope this book helped you in your walk with Christ. Jason DeHaven
