Review of The Power-Based Life by Mike Flynt (Paperback)



Realise your life’s goals and dreams by strengthening your body, mind and spirit.

Mike takes us on a step by step journey to realising life’s potential and walking in the life that God has laid out for us before we were even born.
For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them” ~ Ephesians 2:10

He kicks off this book (excuse the pun!) with a very popular concept in self-development, business, leadership and management circles and particularly reminded me of ‘Strengths Finder 2.0 by Tom Rath. The idea being that instead of developing those areas you are weak in, you find your strengths and ‘play to them’.

However, unlike Strength Finders, it’s exciting to see biblical principles being applied here as well.

The principles laid down in this book are excellent and have good practical application throughout. Each chapter is supported by personal examples of Mike achieving his goals, particular in discovering a career he didn’t even realise existed – but that fit perfectly with his passions, goals and dreams.

Mike Flynt is a ‘man’s man’, an American Football player and coach, and this book will definitely speak sports fans, and men’s men…alas; I am not a man’s man, so for me – not a great choice, but some excellent life principles weaved with scripture.
