5 Things I Learned Reading: A Million Miles In A Thousand Years, By: Donald Miller

Here are 5 things I learned reading, A Million Miles In A Thousand Years, By: Donald Miller

1. The point of life is character transformation – the same as a story.

2. One of the saddest parts about life is that you don’t remember most of it.

3. Pain reveals the heart.

4. Death reminds you that the story we are telling with our lives, has an ending.

5. “Somehow we realize that great stories are told in conflict, but we are unwilling to embrace the potential greatness of the story we are actually in. We think God is unjust, rather than a master storyteller.”
