This book is by no means exhaustive or complete in the topic of spiritual growth, but what Hagin does well is to help relate spiritual growth to what we can easily understand, e.g. the characteristics to a natural babyhood in relation to spiritual babes, and also he shares his vast experiences as a minister and how some Christians just do not want to grow. Some of his testimonies will hit home as you read it.

This is one of the greatest Christian books of all time. Brother Hagin points out in detail the differences in the growth and development of the Spirit man and how to achieve the next level. This book was a pleasant surprise for me since Brother Hagin is so well known in the "Word of Faith" circles. However, this book really shows the fundamentals of the Christian walk and explains how Brother Hagin got to be the great man of faith that he was.

WOW, this book is so very on point with how my walk as a Christian is, was and most likely will be. I thank God for the messages backed up with scripture and simply put for any Christian in any position in their walk with Christ. I highly recommend this book for any Christian but especially a new born in Christ... Amazing food for your spirit

This book is the answer to any obstacle we may face in life. Our journey on earth is one that is challenging, and anyone who reads this book can find the strength, inner peace, and faith they need to walk with God. I highly recommend this book to everyone I come in contact with.

This book is great, and is even better when you fast before reading it. I passed it one of my Soldier and she passed it to someone else, and its circulating our whole camp.
I would buy another book from this author. The author explains the contents of this book in very understandable terms, even my 8 year daughter can read it with ease.
I grew up spiritually after reading this book, and I thank God someone recommend it to me.
