Beskrivelse af The Disciplined Life
2019 Reprint of 1962 Edition. Full facsimile of the original edition and not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. The disciplined life is the goal of all great leaders. Every true Christian finds that his spiritual success is by way of the rigors of discipline. In an era of entitlement, where the search for comfort and luxury drive behavior, here is a forthright treatment that is vitally needed by all Christians. The author is both forthright and sympathetic, practical and yet weaves in a strong idealism. He knows the current age in which he lives and spares it not.-From the Back Cover.
