This review is from: Walking in Victory: Experiencing True Sanctification and Holiness through God's Grace (Paperback)

I read Walking in Victory years ago, when it first came out. I still refer to it regularly and think of its content often in my daily life, and I use the information in Bible teachings regularly as well. The charts help to make deep truths clear and memorable. This book is a must-read for anyone who wants to understand *and live* what it means to be a "new creature" in Christ. ~Kathy Hoffer

This review is from: Walking in Victory: Experiencing True Sanctification and Holiness through God's Grace (Paperback)

Walking in Victory is a great book that helps to expound and compile the information in the Epistles. After reading this book, many events and experiences in my life made sense. It was much easier to apply the biblical truth in a fruitful way.

5.0 out of 5 stars Practical Guide for Obedience to God, December 5, 2007

By

This review is from: Walking in Victory: Experiencing True Sanctification and Holiness through God's Grace (Paperback)

What a great resource to have to work through personal issues and also bringing along a friend in their life-long walk with God. Eye-opening for the new believer; a trusted reference book for the maturing Christian who wants to see more of Christ in their lives and their output to others. This is a unique book that has no real equal on the subject of "how to" walk more-and-more in godly obedience (which is our victory).
