What You Build Your House on Matters

By Jason K Shanks

Life is busy. It is full of noise and distractions. How can we stop long enough, in our busy or comfortable lives, to ask some important questions? Questions about life, meaning, and purpose. Things we should think about, but all too often, we get trapped in the tyranny of the urgent, the pursuit of personal happiness, or the lure of ease and comfort without even realizing it. In our busyness and comfort, we often forget who we are, why we exist, and our purpose in life. The noise of life causes us to ignore and push aside the important questions of life. And yet, every day, each of us makes hundreds of decisions based upon what we believe to be true. Have you ever stopped long enough to ask where these beliefs come from and whether or not they are helping or hurting you?

In this book, your house is a metaphor for life. Each of us is building a house grounded upon some foundational principles and based upon a standard of life we've come to accept and believe as true. What are they? I am inviting you on a journey to explore various areas of life and hopefully, just maybe, get you to stop long enough to ask some important questions.

Why? Because I believe you were created for more. And I want you to discover life to the full.

Come to find out, what you build your house on matters. Can your house withstand the storms of life and stand strong through all seasons? Because what we discover is, while things may look good on the outside, sometimes it's the problems inside that we don't see or choose to ignore that often become bigger problems later. There are truths hidden deep within that truly matter and they shape our lives. And so, we must ask...

What are you chasing in life?
What legacy will you leave?
