Publisher's summary

Full of beautiful, heart-wrenching, and hilarious stories, A Million Miles in a Thousand Years details one man's opportunity to edit his life as if her were a character in a movie. Years after writing his best-selling memoir, Donald Miller went into a funk and spent months sleeping in and avoiding his publisher. One story had ended, and Don was unsure how to start another. But he gets rescued by two movie producers who want to make a movie based on his memoir. When they start fictionalizing Don's life for film - changing a meandering memoir into a structured narrative - the real-life Don starts a journey to edit his actual life into a better story.

A Million Miles in a Thousand Years details that journey and challenges listeners to reconsider what they strive for in life. It shows how to get a second chance at life the first time around.

This book was both enjoyable and meaningful

I loved this book! He was real and profound on so many levels. I enjoyed his life's story and how he touched a place in me to review my own life's story and to look for ways to make my story what I would like it to be. I'm buying the hard copy so I can mark places that I want to remember.

Ready to live my best story

I couldn’t get into any audio book before this. But this book came to me at a difficult time in my life, when I wondered my meaning and purpose. And now I understand more. Great listen. I laughed and cried.
