This was a book my church went through together at the start of the year. Yep, I'm a little behind in reading it...and then it took me a long time to read it as I read a bit each day during my quiet time.
I found it to be both practical and relatable when it comes to identifying and changing patterns in life to grow more in a relationship with God.

One of John's best. The best of hip pocket theology that gives spiritual understanding in a perspective that feels conversational and accessible. Empowering, insighfult, and refeshing.
