Review

It was only God that allowed me to survive Vietnam prison camps. But when I returned, I had new battles to face. It was then that I heard the powerful teaching of Bill Gothard. He explained the marvelous truths of God s Word in practical ways so that I could understand and apply them to my daily life. --Sam Johnson, U.S. Congressman

Nothing besides Scripture itself played a more important role in the daily guiding and leading of our family than Bill Gothard and the Institute in Basic Life Principles. We immersed ourselves in the clear but profound and practical wisdom delivered by God through Bill. I found every seminar and every piece of literature was produced impeccably in honor of the One whose message it delivered. --Sonny Perdue, Governor, State of Georgia

Through the example and teachings of Bill Gothard and the Institute in Basic Life Principles, we have benefited both as a family and in our business. It is as we take those lessons from God s Word that Bill clearly articulates that we live the full life that God intends. --David Green, CEO, Hobby Lobby

    The wisdom that is found in the principles that Mr. Gothard has in the Institute of Basic Life Principles (IBLP) are phenomenal and life -changing. I have been attending his seminars since I was 24 (I'm now 74). When I followed the wisdom and discipline of those principles, it not only changed my relationships , the trajectory of my life but had a powerful and positive influence on my friends enemies and acquaintances. One thing you must be willing to do is give your whole life to Christ. If you do not, the discipline that it takes to develop the habits of the principles will feel legalistic and burdensome. But if you submit, it will bring unspeakable joy and eliminate some of the evils that have become so blatant and outlandish that we as society must endure.
    Mr. Gothard's explanation of the principles on authority, success, marriage, etc. are exceptional.
    This book give you the context of how Mr.Gothard embarked on his life's journey that he still walks @ the age of 84. Look @ his website. Bill Gothard.com. you won't regret it.

    Beware of anything this man writes. He is deluded at best and a cult leader at worst.
