About this listen

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.

The many examples of how story defines us

I liked the authors sense of humour and his willingness to expose the inner workings of what it takes to craft our own narrative that helps live a flourishing life

Author narrates an amazing story full of insight

Wow! What a great book! I feel so challenged and also enlightened. It was refreshing to hear such a great and new perspective on what meaning is and how we are alive when we are in conflict

Slow and boring

I don’t know how he’s managed to write a whole book with such little engaging content
Not worth buying

Boring

Miller wrote a boring book about his boring life, and how to improve a boring life.... Unfortunately, some people just boring. This story has no substance and lacks any real plot.
