About this ebook
Do you find yourself chasing “something more”?
We are people seized by longings we can’t seem to satisfy. It’s built into us—in our very bones. We were created with an innate desire to be a part of a world and a story bigger than ours. Sadly, however, most of us spend our lives blind to the fact that this story and this world are right in front of us, beckoning to us to come and play our part. We keep on with our focused, relentless pursuit of everything else and find ourselves dissatisfied.
In Do Something Beautiful, York Moore shows you how to:
- reframe your own story and begin seeing God’s story breaking into your life in the everyday moments
- leave behind mediocrity and be a part of that beautiful story, and
- make your life count for something that matters.
Don’t give up on your “something more.” Chase it better.

I was drawn to this new book by Mr. More. The description given “refrain from your own story and begin seeing God's story braking through in your life in the everyday moments,” is a subject of great interest to me. The author starts by telling us a personal story about an ordinary summer night when he was seven years old. Anyone that has lived East of the Mississippi has experienced this phenomenal sight, phosphorous bugs, fireflies or lightning bugs is what I knew them by. York later in the book uses the light from the firefly as evidence of something more. “Light shines best in darkness, and so the beauty, righteousness, and community of God shine best in places of despair and need, in the muddy fields of broken lives and forgotten dreams.” I found Do Something Beautiful a little slow at times but I gained a lot of insight from reading it. I received this book from Moody Publishing through Net Galleys. The opinion expressed in this review is completely my own.
