Excellent and Convicting!

A wonderfully challenging book to strengthen your faith. In a culture that is comfortable with fluffy, feel good church, this book is as refreshing and awakening as a dip in a cool mountain stream on a hot day.

Read this book...but more importantly apply it

Christians, apply the Biblical spiritual disciplines to your life. Great book to help you get started. It was great to learn more fully that almost all of these disciplines are not optional but commanded and expected. We are told to go make disciples, but how can we do that if we ourselves are not disciplined learners.

A Keeper to be read over and over!

Whether you are a brand new follower of Christ or I'm a mature believer who wishes to go deeper, Donald Whitney challenges the reader in every spiritual discipline. I loved this book! The vocal performance was done exceptionally well however, I would also like to have heard it read by a more youthful speaker so that it would not appear to be a book just for an older audience. Nevertheless it is still an excellent read!
