      On mine I have not seen many errors and the only thing I have noticed is that some to the scriptures listed by book are not hyperlinked but I have not done an exhaustive review of the index.

    Could you please source the quotation attributed to Winston Churchill given on p. 169? "To every person there comes in their lifetime that special moment when you are figuratively tapped on the shoulder and offered the chance to do a very special thing, unique to you and your talents. What a tragedy if that moment finds you unprepared or unqualified for work which could have been your finest hour." —Winston Churchill Matthew Aaron Perman, John Piper, and Matt Perman, What’s Best next: How the Gospel Transforms the Way You Get Things Done (Grand Rapids, MI: Zondervan, 2014), 169.

      Alive to Wonder: Celebrating the Influence of C. S. Lewis
      Although Lewis owned a huge library, he possessed few of his own works. His phenomenal memory recorded almost everything he had read except his own writings—an appealing fault. Often when I quoted lines from his own poems he would ask who the author was. He was a very great scholar, but no expert in the field of C.S. Lewis.5

              John, I understand that Christ "regained his place of glory" through his obedience even to the point of death, and I understand that he purchased his own everlasting joy through his death, but isn't it going too far to say that Christ died for his own everlasting life? In what sense would he have forefeited his own everlasting life had he been disobedient?

              When I Don’t Desire God: How to Fight for Joy
              2:8–9). The word “therefore” means that his obedience unto death was the reason God exalted Christ and gave him the glory he had with the Father before creation. He had come to save sinners. When the price was paid, the work was decisively done. “It is finished,” he cried (John 19:30). And God rewarded him with great glory. So in a sense Christ died for his own everlasting life and joy. He had done no sin and so did not need to be saved from guilt. He had none. But the
