What if you knew you had just one year left to live? What would you do differently? What would you immediately stop wasting time on, and what would you begin to do knowing you just had a year left to complete it? The Old Testament reveals a story of just such a person, who was told by a prophet that "This year you are going to die" (Jeremiah 26:16). The fact is, only God knows the minutes and hours in our lives, and each day should be lived to the fullest. In this message, Dr. Merritt reveals simple biblical principles to guide your days--whether you have a year to live, or 100 years to live.

"Before you can hide God's word in your heart, you've got to get God's Word in to your heart. If I only had one year to live, I would spend time every day reading this book, memorizing this book, meditating on this book, abiding in this book and getting God's Word down in to my heart, so I could be for God everything He wants me to be." --Dr. Merritt
