Tower was able to pinpoint with accuracy concerns in Christondom, I.e, the lack spiritual hunger and thirst in one's personal life for intimacy with Christ; being spoon fed instead of seeking God for one's self.
I was blessed and challenged to press on to maturity in Christ. This book is not for the casual reader.

Church , wake up!
The church of this generation needs a loud wake up call. This book is that call. It is not so important the ways and customs of our church’s as our passion for our Savior. Do we just say the right words when in church or are we in love with the Head of the church? We need to get back to true religion because there a judgment ahead of all of us.

Wow.
Incredible read. Even if just to read the last chapter, get this book. If you've ever wondered why you went to church, get this book. This book focuses mainly on our internal thoughts and how they drive (or dont) our external actions. Whoever paid to reprint this book at such a affordable price, thank you, and may God bless you.

Tozer gets at the heart of things so succinctly. This book is not just aimed at preachers or the church but at each of us individually who make up the body of Christ. This will convict you. For many, these are areas few consider. We need to think on these things more. Highly recommend for every believer in Christ.

You have been warned…
Almost in the nature of John’s concerns for the churches in the Revelation, Tozer, convincingly, shares his concerns for the church today and how to realign in good health. Timely, thoughtful, and therapeutic, he gives us a corrective way forward to be the Bride of Christ.

This book was convicting! I think reading books written in an earlier era are interesting to compare to the modern day church. Toser gives a laundry list of things for evaluation as believers in the modern world. Good book and 99 cents on kindle!!
