When the Game Is Over, It All Goes Back in the Box

Life's ephemeral nature examined through a spiritual lens.

If you're feeling reflective about life's priorities and how to align them with your spiritual beliefs, then this book by John Ortberg will speak to you. It offers a compelling allegory about focusing on what truly matters—beyond material success and temporary pleasures—something that can resonate deeply in our fast-paced, success-driven society. It's a playbook for rethinking what winning in life really means, encouraging a deeper investment in relationships and spiritual growth.

Description

What can we take with us to the kingdom of God? In When the Game Is Over, It All Goes Back in the Box, bestselling author, pastor, and consummate storyteller John Ortberg tells us we can take pretty much only what we brought to the game. Everything else goes back in the box—the cash atop the corporate ladder, the vacation home at the lake, and the status vehicle in between. All the tokens, game pieces, and prizes are left behind when you walk away from the table. The only real "winnings" you claim and keep are your own soul and the love you have for Christ and each other. If you think you might need a better game plan—one that offers an eternal perspective—this strategy-filled playbook walks you through what it takes to really win big at the game of life.
