In his best-selling book \u003ci\u003eThe Purpose Driven(TM) Life: What on Earth Am I Here For?\u003c\/i\u003e, Rick Warren says, \"You must begin with God. You were born by his purpose and for his purpose.\" \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBut as a non-believer, your purpose resides in yourself; it is yours alone to discover and develop. It's about choosing to live your own life for your own reasons. No one can dictate your purpose. You decide.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book will help you understand and appreciate why freely choosing to help and cooperate with others is the true path to finding purpose. Life does not need purpose: Purpose needs life. To punctuate this point, \u003ci\u003eThe Good Atheist\u003c\/i\u003e includes inspiring biographies of humanity's true heroes--men and women who did not waste their lives as slaves to a God, but rather found purpose in enhancing life on this Earth for all of us.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDan Barker received a degree in religion from Azusa Pacific University and was ordained to the ministry by the Standard Community Church.
