Practical, insightful and life changing if we choose to implement Andrew’s teachings!
Format: Kindle
I almost didn’t get this book due to its title. I am so glad I didn’t let that stop me!!! This is a “how to” understand and implement having a successful Christian walk with the Lord. This requires discipline, desire and action. Andrew explains and outlines the why, and what is needed for us to walk closer and deeper with the Lord and the wonderful benefits we reap of doing so!! I will be reading this over and over!!
