Change your attitude, change your life. We're very good at explaining why we're unhappy: bad job, bad relationships, bad luck. But there's probably a better reason: bad attitudes. In Lord, Change My Attitude, James MacDonald shows us just how much our attitudes affect our lives. One of his bestsellers, this book is classic James: It's clear, it's inspiring, and it packs a punch. Drawing from the experience of the Israelites who grumbled through the wilderness, MacDonald shows how bad attitudes rob us of joy. Coveting, complaining, and being critical are not what our hearts were made for. They were made for thankfulness, contentment, and love. Is your heart straining under the weight of a bad attitude? Don't read this book if you're looking for a quick fix. Don't read this book if you're unwilling to change. Read it if you're ready for a serious, inside-out attitude adjustment.… (mais)

This book grew on me with each chapter.

It's written in a paired chapter style--the first chapter portrays and explains a negative attitude and how it impacts your spiritual life and the following one resets the negative attitude to a positive complement. For example, chapter one is an attitude of complaining and chapter two guides how to replace complaining with an attitude of gratitude.

If you tackle this book as a study, I'd recommend tackling a pair of chapters each week rather than reading it all at once or one chapter/per week. I found it easier to digest and compare/contrast that way, but obvs, do whatever works for you.

The chapters are scripturally-based and rely heavily on illustration of the Hebrews in their 40-year desert wandering with the analogy of avoiding ending up in a spiritual desert due to a poor attitude.

Some of the chapters spoke more directly to me/my life than others, with a few that were (unfortunately) very direct hits. The author provides some practical and relatable examples from his own life to illustrate points, but it wasn't easy for me to 'see' how these attitudes are present in my own life.

I have no connection to James MacDonald and haven't read any of his other books. At times, he comes across as a little smug, but overall his teaching/writing style is direct, almost blunt. That works for me--I'd rather hear/read truth backed up by scripture than the more feel-good Christian-lite or prosperity gospel that has become more on-trend.

There are discussion questions at the back that can be worked through by chapter, if desired, but they don't interrupt the narrative flow if you don't want to. Recommended for individual reading or a small group study. ( )
