Summary: God's purpose-our maximum potential realized
Review: Brett's book offers a unique blend of questions to ask ourselves along our journey to being in alignment with God. It provides guidelines, not shortcuts, and applications as we enter, evolve and exit from one season after another of our lives. Convergence causes us to make choices about the way we live, which are maximized by our decision to blend the four areas of our life together. By integrating career, community, creativity through intentional personal planning, convergence is attainable and our life-goals bear desired fruit. Brett has used this book to interweave his own life journeys, sharing what has worked and what has not, in an effort to encourage readers to step out in faith to take a closer look at a more meaningful, God-designed and directed, life.

Summary: how to be a disciple all of the time
Review: This book is the best I have read on the subject of true discipleship, i.e.,
how to be a disciple all of the time-at work, home, and play! Brett Johnson
insists that convergence, the overlapping of the different spheres of one's
life under the umbrella of our identity in Christ, is what the Christian is
called to do. His book offers many practical ideas and exercises to define
and shape the process for each person. The chapters on marriage and the
desert experience alone are worth the book. I have referred the book to
many friends who are serious about trying to be a disciple all the time,
wherever they are. Throw out the idea of balance and replace it with
convergence!

Summary: Considering my path towards Convergence
Review: While reading Convergence by Brett Johnson, I was able to grasp a better understanding about some of the experiences that I have faced in the last couple of years. Going through some of the different seasons has brought me closer to understanding my purpose and what God has made me to be. It is exciting to see how God has worked in my life, even when I was in the "Desert". This was a great book in helping me to consider and think about what choices I will make for the future.
