Living a Principled Life: Uncovering 80 Universal Principles of Life That Can Change You

by Richard C. Matteson

Overview

We have lost sight of the principles of life that guide us to holistic living. These principles are rooted in the Bible and have not changed through the centuries. They are rules without cracks, essential qualities, and the way people can live a dedicated life to themselves, others, and God. They provide freedom in how to live and direction in how to treat others. In every discipline, industry, or profession there is a language which is unique to its purpose, and this is the language for living a fulfilled life. It reveals to individuals, families, groups, churches, and businesses many essential principles to right living which are of inestimable value if used, and can cause a life to thrive. Each principle uses a story in Scripture to bring the principles to life and make easier to remember. The principle remains fresh in the context of the story and brings insight into how to apply it to life today. A principled life cannot be over-rated. It is a key element in the development of maturity in many areas of life.
