Review # 1 was written on 2012-07-31 00:00:00 Ramon Soares Novaes De Souza I have read a few other's of Bruce's books. I have always enjoyed them, but this one is the best by far. The others helped me and made me think a little. This one challenged me and made me think a lot. I wasn't able to blow through it fast. I had to think deeply and slowly as I read it. A hidden treasure in this book is its extensive handling of the conscience from a biblical perspective. I will need to read this a few more times over the years to really get everything he says in this section on conscience. It is sad that this book doesn't seem to have gotten much recent attention. Christian, if you like to read, you should put this book on your list. If you don't like to read, find a brother or sister who does, ask them to read it, and then have them share its contents with you.

Review # 2 was written on 2021-01-14 00:00:00 Richard Carey Very helpful book for understanding and engaging the reality of God's grace, and our tendency to self-righteous performance. Does a good job outlining the understanding of Justification of Faith while contrasting the human penchant to motivate by shame, manipulation, and performance. Helps the reader deal with the reality and the need to accept God as gracious and desirous to see us follow him out of love and not fear. A more densely and thorough treatment of grace and performance than David Semand's book "Healing for Damaged Emotions". Also, those uninterested in Psychological Theory would be advised to skip over the the three chapters dealing with these things.
