5.0 out of 5 stars ENJOYABLE AND EASY TO FOLLOW, June 30, 2001

This review is from: The Source of My Strength (Audio Cassette)

Charles Stanley's "The Source of My Strength" is simply wonderful. It was easy to follow and understand, and his examples were great. I especially liked the way he conveyed his feelings for Christ by creating imagery in the minds of the readers/listeners (I got the audio book, unabridged).

Mr. Stanley offers biblical principles that will help you discover your liberty in Christ so you can live fully and freely every day.

Get this! You won't be sorry!
