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

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.

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).

This book recognizes that our actions flow from our beliefs. It does an excellent job of using the truths of the Bible to align our beliefs with God's love for us. Our good actions flow from God's profound assurance of freedom and love.

This book is terrific in helping someone who has come to know Christ to learn about their new identity and how to "walk" in it victoriously. Excellent for men's groups, discipleship, and for Christians new & old alike trying to understand and apply Romans 5-8 to their daily lives

If you've never understood God's acceptance and grace fully, this is a book you would definitely benefit from! McCallum obviously put a lot of thought into how he could make these deep truths easier to understand and apply. Personally, I love the tables sprinkled throughout this book. They do so much to make things clearer, and are a great resource for group bible studies!!

Some of the many tables found in this book:
<> Comparing Biblical and Modern Love
<> How the Means of Growth (Prayer, Word, Fellowship, Ministry) work together and affect one another.
<> Our Old Self (in Adam) vs. Our New Self (in Christ)
<> Living under the Law vs. Living in Grace

Reading this book in conjunction with a Bible study on Romans 6,7,8 was life changing for me and my husband - and our marriage. I often wonder how things would be if we hadn't read it.

I really like this author's body of work. I've read all his non-fiction. He's very objective and can sound a little bit like notes from a lecture. But it is also emotionally productive, without the bells and whistles, unlike many Christian authors, and has genuine feeling and vulerability to appeal to anyone's subjective sensibilities. This book is my favorite from this author. He wrote that walking with God is about tranformation by the Spirit, not a change of behavior. The author makes points about principles and leaves the reader in charge of how to purpose God based on teachings from the Bible. This message is biblical and encouraging to anyone who has accepted Christ but doesn't know what to do next. This book is not a self-help book. It's not a method plan. Many Christians love the book of Romans and should really take a look at this book as extracurricular. This book is not a substitute for reading the Bible but a companion, conversation piece, the result of the word of God in the author's live - which the author states could happen to anyone who wants a personal relationship with God through Christ.

McCallum's book helped clarify for me what it looks like to walk in God's grace. I have often shared the truths with others and refer back to it myself.

I refer to this book often to get God's perspective on grace and my new identity in Him.
