Powerful message

Revisado: 03-01-24

This is a powerful message! The truth of what being a Christian is. Not your easy Christianity that floods the North American church.

A great telling of an excellent story.

Revisado: 12-03-20

I love how the author takes a Biblical story and brings it into view of the reader in a way that brings it to life. The great telling of the story of Leah and her struggle to be taken seriously. This was a great connecting of the true to life application and the biblical narrative to every believer. A must read!

A great message!

Revisado: 12-03-20

This was a great message from John Piper on the need to endure and the practical applications of how to endure.
This is the type of teaching that we need in this time that we are currently living in. A voice for living through the valleys and the difficult times that we will undoubtedly live through.

A Puritan Movement Message!

Revisado: 12-03-20

The Puritan movement is captured in this classic. There are many things to take away from this book that helps us to see into the mindset of the early church during the 1800's directly after the reformation period of time during church history. This is a classic call to return to prayer and fasting that best equipped the rebirth of the first century church in Europe and in America as well.

Too much self promotion!

Revisado: 12-02-20

The author does a good job of explaining the irrational fears that people have. The examples are good the first time that you hear them. That is the positive of the book. From there it gets negative for me; the author reuses several stories and bible verses to explain things. The author also uses self promotion all throughout the book to describe how well he does and the stories of how well this system works. Yet many of the stories contained seem unfeasible and unauthentic. I would rather find a clearer explanation of fighting fear then promoting another book that would help to contend with your problem that is contained in their personal inventory of books that have been written. Many of the group questions are asked more then once and also ask similar questions just rephrased.

If you are looking for another self help book and do not mind repetition to solve your issues with fear then this book would be the book for you! However if you are looking for substance then keep looking.

Prayer is the foundation of our faith!

Revisado: 11-17-20

Although I am in complete agreeance with Minister Bounds that prayer is in fact a crucial part of our faith I would have liked less repeating in the context. This title is a strong attempt to urge the practice of prayer. The author uses multiple stories multiple times in his telling of the necessity of prayer. Content is not well balanced but has strong potential to convict someone to the life of intercessory prayer which is a dying from of prayer in the Western culture of the Church.

A Must Read for Every Generation

Revisado: 08-31-20

The author does a great job in his teaching the points that he is making. He uses the examples that came from his personal experiences and makes it attainable yet challenging to reach the 7 principles. A needed listen to all parents, teachers, ministers, and any one that deals with leading people.

A Theological miss step.

Revisado: 08-31-20

C.S. Lewis is a product of his time and takes liberties with this title. The idea of pain being the propellant to spiritual depth is not unique to the authors writing, The strength in the title is that the author openly admits that there is flaws in the theology of his point and that there are better examples to suffering being the accelerator to a deeper relationship with the God of Creation,

A Far Stretch for Society

Revisado: 08-31-20

Orwell takes a great deal of effort to stretch the readers imagination. The future is dark in this novel and the Mob rule is cruel and overreaching.
