Our usefulness to the Lord does depend on our character. This book is an excellent tool to allow the Lord to speak to us regarding our inward and outward person. I highly recommend it.

This short little book is the best balance I have ever read about the relationship between your character and God's work in the believer.

Many Christians emphasize the aspect of character building to such a point that "Christianity" merely becomes another system of ethics, like Confuscianism. And many Christians emphasize the aspect of life to such a point that "Christianity" becomes something entirely passive, creating weak, undisciplined individuals who make terrible witnesses for God.

This book, especially chapter 3, gives a wonderful balance of character and life.

It should be kept in mind that this book is a transcription of several spoken messages by Mr. Lee, and it does not always flow from chapter to chapter as smoothly as it might, had he sat down and wrote it systematically. You can tell that he is speaking to different audiences in each chapter. But this is really a very minor detractor. The depth and insight are definitely worth the read. And it's a quick read too. Worth multiple readings.

This is one of the best books I've read on character and character building. This book has been a tremendous help to me.
