The Christian life can be daunting, especially in a world hostile to the ways of God. But the good news is that the God who calls us to be holy has also appointed helpful means so that we can grow in godliness. In Holy Helps for a Godly Life, Richard Rogers shows what the means of godliness are, describes their nature, and explains how they should be used. God has promised to give grace to those who use these means in a right and reverent way, and those who use these means in faith will discover their value for themselves.
I think Rogers had some very good thoughts, but it was all written with a strange overtone of fear or timidity which bothered me. I think Rogers accurately reflected what many Christian practices should look like, but he also seemed to unintentionally leave our sanctification entirely up to us. Which is a bit dangerous. All in all, I was disappointed.
