Nathanael’s Reviews > The Cost of Ambition: How Striving to Be Better Than Others Makes Us Worse > Status Update

Is it good?

I have thoroughly enjoyed it. Extremely thought provoking and very insightful. It is not a quick read, being complex at times. But, it sheds light on a an aspect of the fallen nature every person under the sun has a daily experience of "striving for superiority" over God and others. I found Volf, and those he is quoting, helpful in expanding my understanding for how prevalent this "striving for superiority" is in my life and it's toxicity. I was surprised to see in my own reading of scripture how often it comes up.

Highly recommended!
